Overview: Overall, the Kettler Top star is a great outdoor Table tennis table. It’s not as expensive as some of the other models but it still provides a high level of playing any Ping-pong player will enjoy. The surface of the table, the weather-proof capability, is the main component of an outdoor table that any interested buyer would be concerned about, and this table can withstand any weather force you throw at it. Its got 7/8" patented, weatherproof ALU-TEC top with Climate-Control technology, so you know that any rain or humidity won’t warp the table like some of the other lower quality outdoor tables.
Specifications
- 7/8" patented, weatherproof ALU-TEC top with Climate-Control technology

With many outdoor tables, the surface thickness and the weatherproof ability can prevent the Ping-pong ball from bouncing the right height. Now with this table, Its got Ultra smooth, anti-reflective and certified TRUE BOUNCE tournament top so you have almost the same bounce-level that you would expect from a higher quality indoor Table tennis table. While this table may have a great bounce, there is almost no way that an outdoor table can compare to that of professional indoor table. The ALU-TEC that this table surface has is a great weatherproof surface, but still prevents a perfect style of play.
Another Important characteristic that any potential buyer should be aware of is the tables’ assembly process and the storing capabilities. This table was built with space saver technology with a tight profile and low center of gravity for compact storage. This is great for any Table tennis table, as they can be excessively bulky and hard to store. Let’s be honest, the table is not going to be used constantly, so storing capabilities are a strong characteristic that can determine a table’s quality.
Assembly: Assembly on any outdoor Table tennis table can be difficult. However Kettler, the manufacturers of the Kettler Ping Pong table, have done a great job at figuring out a way to ship the table almost completely assembled. The table comes with the surface unattached, but a few bolts and screwns and you’re ready to play. Other tables can see an expected assembly time of 3-5 hours, but with this table, assembly is around only one hour.
Conclusion: This is a great outdoor table tennis table for any recreational family or Table tennis player looking for a weather-proof ping pong table. That being said, there are better tables on the market if you are looking for a higher-quality outdoor table with better qualities and characteristics. Still, if you are looking for a decent mid-range table, this is perfect.
