Here's the table in the "playback" position...

When you're erecting or storing this table, each half of the playing surface independently tilts into an upright position.

This feature, which is present on many tables, enables the table to be used by one person by using the upright section of the table as an opponent.

When you watch the video at the bottom of this page, you'll see a demonstration of this near the end of the video.

Here's the table in its storage position...

When you're not using the table, you may want to store it away.

This is how the table looks in its storage position with each half of the playing surface in an upright position.

Here's a close up of the corner of the table...

The corners of a table can be hazardous in certain situations, and this picture shows how the corner of this table is protected.

This is a useful safety feature.

Here's a close up of the edge of the table...

This table has a two inch steel apron underneath the edges of the playing surface.

This helps support the playing surface and reduce the opportunity for the playing surface to warp easily.

Here's a close up of the type of wheels used for this table...

When you need to move the table (usually in its storage position) there are wheels on the four center legs.

The wheels are 3 inch mag wheel casters.

Here's a close up of the type of legs used for this table...

In addition to the four centre legs which have caster wheels on them, the four corner legs are as shown here.

These legs are not adjustable so if you have an uneven floor, this table may not be suitable for that location.

Here's a close up of the type of net which is supplied with this table...

The ITTF rules state that the length of the net must be 6 feet, and the height must be 6 inches. It must also be adjustable.

The net supplied with this table is 5 feet 6 inches long and 6 inches high and non-adjustable.

Therefore, it does not meet the ITTF requirements for competitive play, but it's suitable for recreational play.

However, you could easily buy a new net and post set to fit onto this table.
