7 Best Ping Pong Tables in 2024, According to Gear Experts

Best Overall Ping Pong Table

Joola Inside 15 Table

ConsSusceptible to wobble due to weight. Heavier tables will have better durability

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

Most Durable Ping Pong Table

Prince Challenger Table Tennis Table

ConsMuch heavier than the Joola table

Another simple, straightforward ping pong table from one of the best brands in racket sports. Like the Joola above, the Prince Challenger uses a 15mm MDF surface that provides an excellent bounce. It’s outfitted with lockable 3” swivel wheels, leg levelers and bumper corners for safety, and a pro net that clips on easily. It’s quite a bit heavier than comparable options, but it’s also a lot more durable than most tables. You can lean on the table without worry about it collapsing, and you can also bump it and not deal with any wobbling.

Best Outdoor Ping Pong Table

Stiga XTR Professional Table Tennis Table

ConsAluminum table top isn’t as responsive as a wood tabletop

Another Olympic-worthy table tennis brand, Stiga makes some excellent ping pong tables. The XTR Professional Outdoor Table is made from a weatherproof aluminum composite that excels in all conditions. It comes nearly fully assembled, so you can get it put together in less than 15 minutes, and it’s super easy to fold up and store when you need the space back.

Best Multi-Use Outdoor Ping Pong Table

Joola Berkshire Outdoor Table Tennis Table

ConsWon’t bounce as true as a real ping pong table

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.

Best Elite Indoor Ping Pong Table

Butterfly Centrefold 25 Ping Pong Table

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.

Best Made-to-Order Ping Pong Table

SW Studios Kenari Ping Pong Table

ConsLong lead time for orders

If you’re outfitting your dream game room or want a classy, architecturally-minded table for your office, we recommend going all-in on a made-to-order ping pong table from Jack. First, you’ll choose between three handsome table top options: American Black Walnut, Hard Rock Maple or White Oak. Then you select one of eight powder coated steel bases to round things out. This table looks exceptional and is guaranteed to be the talk of the town—or at least, the talk of the ping pong club.

Best Tabletop Ping Pong Table

Joola Regulation Table Tennis Conversion Top

ConsNot as stable as a full-sized table

Some of us want a ping pong table but don’t have room for it. In those situations, we recommend getting a ping pong table top like this one from Joola. It’s designed to go on top of a billiard table, but you could use it on top of a dining table, patio table, or, if you really wanted to, balance it on a couple of saw horses. The bottom is fully padded to protect the table you set it on, and the engineered wood surface delivers a great bounce, especially for the price.
