There are only a few big names in the table tennis world, and Joola is one of them. This table is a great combination of recreational versatility and competition-worthy pedigree, making it perfect for just about anyone. The 15mm-thick MDF surface is competition grade, resulting in a true, consistent bounce, but it comes in at a relatively light 130 pounds (light for a ping pong table, I mean). Assembly only takes 10 minutes out of the box and it has locking wheels that make it easy to move into whatever space you want. As for price? This table is under $450, which is honestly pretty affordable when you stack it up against other ping pong tables of its quality. Simply put, this is a certified deal when you consider how well it holds up over time. Look here first before going to any of our other picks

If you’re looking for a more permanent ping pong solution, you should check out the Joola Berkshire Outdoor Table. The price is considerably higher than most of our other options, but this is just as much a piece of furniture as it is a ping pong table. Made with a cement top and a heavy-duty steel base, the table can be used for marathon table tennis tournaments, but can easily be used as a dining table or conference table, depending on where you put it. Just remember, it’s not foldable and can be very difficult to move.

Made to the exacting specifications of the International Table Tennis Federation, this table is ideal for tournament play, but it’s also a great option for those who simply want the best of the best. The 1″ Perfect Grip top delivers a true bounce, while the 5” rubber wheels make it easy to move into the perfect position. The wood table top is nestled into a durable steel frame with a 2” apron. One of our favorite things about this table, other than it’s high-quality materials, is that it comes fully assembled, so you can get straight to rallying in no time.
