When it comes to selecting the right Table Tennis Table, we are here to make
your life easier. Here are some basic and simple parameters to keep in mind
when checking a TT table. So, let's get this started!
1. Area We must consider the
dimensions of the table as well as additional clearance in order to play the
sport freely and safely.
In general, we
recommend a mini TT Table for small spaces (up to 1.5 m x 0.7 m).
Dimensions of a Small
TT Table We generally recommend
a medium-sized TT table for medium-sized spaces (2 m x 1 m).
Dimensions of a
Medium-Sized TT Table You can use the
full-size TT table for any surface (2.7 m x 1.5 m).
2. Thickness The thickness of the
tabletop determines how well the ball bounces on the table. In general, the
greater the bounce, the thicker the tabletop. However, it also depends on the
type of playing surface used, which can be either wood or aluminum. If you want
to build a mini TT table or a medium-sized TT table, a tabletop thickness of
10mm with a (wooden surface and metal legs) is sufficient.
If you want a full-size
table, the tabletop should be at least 12 mm thick so that the ball bounces
effectively. When the ball is dropped 30 cm above the table on a full-size TT
table, it should bounce back to a minimum of 21 cm. However, for competition players,
the tabletop thickness should be greater than 22cm. Check

3. Wheels or no wheels? Do you plan to use the
space you have set aside for Table Tennis? If so, a foldable table without
wheels will suffice. To top it all off, they are nearly 40% less expensive than
a table with wheels. If there is a space that is used for multiple activities,
such as Yoga, Karate, Zumba, Table Tennis, and so on, it is always a good idea
to have a TT table with wheels that can be completely folded once you are
finished burning calories on the table.
4. Leg Styles TT tables with wooden
legs are commonly sold by local brands. They are a less expensive option, but
be careful because they tend to collapse after prolonged use. It is always preferable
to use iron/aluminum legs rather than wooden ones.
5. Structure This is the area
beneath the tabletop. For the best bounce, it is always best to choose one made
of iron or aluminum.
6. Approval by the ITTF/Local
Federation The TT table must be
approved by either the country federation (FFTT, TTFI, etc.) or the ITTF
standard. Always look for it before investing your money down on a TT table.
