Final Thinking

This table is rather superb in terms of quality and you may just need about 20 minutes to assemble the entire table by yourself. The whole assembly just needs you to set up and tighten 16 nuts and bolts on the legs.

This JOOLA Tour 1800 may not provide you with the same bounce quality which other competition-level or professional table tennis table will provide you with.

Nonetheless, the bounce is still considered very good for the price that you paid and the quality that you get with this incredible table. It is still considered okay for the performance if you compare the quality with other tables that of same price range.

With the 18mm inch of the thickness for the tabletop, it bounces higher than the JOOLA Tour 1500 table.
