Stiga Eclipse Outdoor Table Tennis Table Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this "outdoor" table about 5 years ago. Keep in mind that I live in one of the mildest climates in the US: SF Bay area. The table was always kept out of the direct weather during winter-time, not indoors, but sheltered. Starting just after 1 year, the problems started with water ingress swelling the pressboard material underneath the aluminum top surface. This aluminum is beer can thin and blistered and delaminated near the edges. Stiga would not support this problem since the warranty was expired by a few months. Now the 5 year old table surface has blistered to the point where normal play is impossible. Icing on the cake: the legs are rusty and folding is stiff.
When I bought this table I thought it would be in excellent shape for 10+ years. Try 14 months. I would try another manufacturer that has mastered the art of waterproofing and backs their products for longer than 1 season. What a waste of $600! I will not buy Stiga again.

Butterfly TC1000 Table Tennis Table Cover Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First day thoughts: Very good value. Heavy duty cordura nylon looking material. Using it on my Kettler outdoor table. Good coverage all the way down to about 6 inches from the ground when the table is folded up. Heavy enough where I don't think wind will ever blow it off.
My only regret is that it droops severely at the top on account of my table folding tightly together at the top giving it a triangular shape. The cover is rectangular just like the picture. The excess fabric creates a few large folds that make a great looking cover look like a tarp I threw over the table(maybe not that bad). I don't deduct from my 5 star rating because the picture and dimensions are accurate. I should have known it would fit this way. None the less I am happy with my purchase.
