 Excellent TT Table Oct 06, 2009
By Christopher M. Ball
It has been a while since I purchased this table, so I've had a number of months to ponder over how I feel about the product. With that being said, the table itself plays like a champ. The construction quality is great and it folds up nicely allowing me to store it in my office and roll it out to play when we have guests over. The bounce on the table is excellent and the net / net tension are also excellent. I also appreciate the paddle / ball holders along both sides of the table - convenient design.
The only drawback I can think of is the initial setup time to build the table. I think it took me roughly 3.5 hours to put together. I highly recommend having a 2nd person handy, as I almost ran into trouble trying to put it all together on my own (each half of the table top weighs around 90 lbs. I think), so build with caution.
Happy Hunting!

 Paid price for the Brand not for the table!!! Feb 17, 2010
By Kris
"Tech bee"
I went with the brand and trusted the Butterfly. Unfortunately they failed me. It is very light weight compared to some other tables in the market.
The Shipping company does not have my email or telephone no. So sent a mail in USPS for a schedule date and sat with the table for over a week. The moment I called them they are delivered the table on the next day. Amazon could have done a bit better here supplying me the Shipping company number and instructing to me to call them. So that I could have received my order a week ahead. There was a broken part in the shipment as it was miss handled (there was a 6X6" hole on the outer package that was covered with a cardboard), notified Amazon, never received any reply back on that.
The broads are pretty good. However the center pieces, which holds the boards together are flimsy. They are couple of metal sheets, which can easily bent and plastic stuff to hold them together. The legs are 1/2" pipes and if you touch the board for a shot the entire table will move. I think Butterfly can do much better than this for the prices. Due to the center piece every bounce of the ball will resound and gives a feel that the ball is bouncing too much on the board.
It is 200Lb and took 4-5hr for me to install. Be sure you have some one who can lift each board, which is around 80Lb, around. My wife helped me with this. after setting it up it works as expected. NO alignment issues.
I felt like I paid double the price just for the brand name. I would recommend NOT to buy this one unless you use this for decoration and occasional play. There are better tables than this for less prices in the market. Also you may want to consider physically looking (NOT the photos) at the table before you order.

Great indoor table for intermediate to advance players Aug 27, 2009
By A. Goel
"4ML"
Just got this table two days ago and finally assembled it today. This is a great table. 3/4th inch top really gives a great bounce (which may take a few days to get adjusted to, if you have been playing on sub-par to decent tables). Surface is great, the blue color is nice, and really like the way it folds up and easy to maneuver. Very nicely made, looks and feels strong, something which will last a long time and doesn't look cheap (NOT MADE IN CHINA).
Assembly takes about 90-100 minutes, but you need two people. Instructions aren't the best, it's annoying to measure the screws to figure out which screws go where and you need proper tools.
The net seems iffy, I'm guessing it was just my order. It came a little ripped and I'll be contacting amazon to figure out what to do about it.
If you are looking for a nice professional table, this is it.
Update: The shipping cost on this item dropped from $70 to Free after 3 weeks from the date of purchase. I contacted amazon about this, and they wouldn't refund me and offered me $5. I always felt Amazon was the best place to shop online. Also found out that there is no price protection if you buy any product from Amazon. Really disappointed.

Poor net Feb 14, 2010
By GVK
Very good table, but in spite of repeated customer complaints, Butterfly still ships the table with a lousy net.
OK table some parts can be improved Sep 16, 2011
By Ed
1. The delivery of this table was very smooth by ABF shipping, they first contacted me with phone and set up the delivery date. The driver showed up on time and was very nice to move the table to my back door. I am very happy with the delivery.
2. The set up of the table took me a while, but indeed as other reviews, if you read the manual carefully, you should be able to do it in 3 or 4 hours. One thing I did was to first label all the parts and it makes my work easier. You will need a second hand during the last few steps.
3. The quality of the table is OK, or good for its price. The bounce is all right.
Complaints:
1. the net provided is horrible;
2. the side part for holding the paddles are pretty useless and
I am still trying to figure out a way to remove it so that I can put on the new net I bought.
