Table of Contents
What You Will Get Along With This Table
The table comes with a complete set of equipment that you need to play the game. This ping pong table has a size of 6′ x 3′ and also comes with a net set, 2 ping pong paddles, and 4 balls.
Table Construction
The table is built with a heavy-duty aluminum frame. The frame is of great quality which keeps the table firmly in place. However, try not to hit your paddle on the frame as it may cause a dent.
The GoSports Mid-Size Table Tennis Table is built with thin plywood. The thin plywood absorbs a bit of the bounce of the ball. Therefore, you might need to exert more effort to hit the ball.
The tabletop is red in color. It is not a standard color for a ping pong table, which normally comes in green or blue. However, the construction of the playing surface of the tabletop is very good. It is smooth to play on and gives a decent bounce.
It might be a little noisy when the ball is in contact with the table surface. If you want to reduce the noise, you can try to install some foam beneath the table.
Net, Paddles, and Balls
The provided net is decent and tight. When first setting up, the net may slide over the metal rods on each side. I found that the net rods are too short and are unable to reach a height of 6 inches. If you are willing to spend a little money, you can try to get a retractable net.
The paddles and balls provided are not of premium quality; however, they work fine for casual play.
If you wish to get a better spin and bounce when playing ping pong with this table, you may need to consider getting better quality paddles and balls. The table also comes with a zippered pouch that allows you to store the paddles and balls after each game.
Setting Up
The set up of the table is effortless. You just need to unbox the table, unfold the table, carry the table to where you want to play the game, fix the frame on the ground, put on the net, grab your paddles and ball, and you can start to play ping pong. The whole set up process should take under 5 minutes.
After playing, you can very quickly fold the table for storage. You can carry the table easily since it has built-in carrying handles.

Final Thought
Overall, this GoSports Mid-Size Table Tennis Game Set makes for an ideal gift. It is a great product to have for fun times with family and friends.
Since the table is easy to set up, you can start playing ping pong in no time. The table is also just the right size for most households who do not have enough space to accommodate a full-size ping pong table.
As this mid-size table is foldable, you can easily store it in a smaller room after use and free up some space for other activities.
