    This has proven to be a lot of fun. It works great on most tables! I’ve used it on a large folding banquet table and also on smaller household tables. The retractable net did not leave marks on the nice dining room table, which is a big plus! The paddles and ball are regulation size.

    I cannot wait to take this camping, to the beach, and to enjoy it during cookouts this summer! We’re having a blast with it in the house during the winter!

    I would definitely recommend this and plan on giving it as a gift to an upcoming housewarming party!

    I was very excited to try out this product. It seemed like a great idea for camping or for turning your kitchen table into a ping pong table and for the most part it works very well.

    I only ran into one big problem and that was that the clamp didn’t open large enough to clamp on any of the tables in our house. It was too small to accommodate any table with a lip thicker than two inches and it has absolutely no give where that is concerned It took me a while but I finally found a table in our basement with a small enough lip and then it worked great.

    The net keeps good tension and the grips hold onto the table well. It accommodates a variety of table widths (although my husband and I found it was hard to play on a table that was too short or too narrow just because you aren’t used to it). Definitely something that I think will be wonderful for camping. You can easily clip it on to a picnic table and have instant ping pong :-)

    The net bag that everything comes in makes it very portable and wonderful for on-the-go ping pong.

    Good:
    – Net stays firm
    – Stays on table well
    – Accommodates a variety of table widths
    – Storage bag fits all of the equipment nicely and is great for carrying everything around
    – Would be wonderful for using on picnic tables and for camping

    Bad:
    – The clips only accommodate a depth of under two inches, so check the depth of your table lip before ordering
    this.

    Overall we are very happy with this. I just wish I would have measured my big tables upstairs to make sure that it would fit on one of them.

    A fun way to keep kids (and adults) occupied for hours, March 1, 2011

    The Sportcraft Anywhere Table Tennis set is a simple kit that will turn any table into a table tennis table. It is easy to use and a great way to keep your kids busy for hours.

    The kits consists of two posts with integrated net, two paddles, 3 balls, and a nylon mesh bag to store the set up in. The kit is light weight, compact, and could easily fit into a suitcase for travel.

    Set up is simple. The net is 63.5 inches, is spring loaded, and retracts between the two end posts. It has enough slack to easily fit on a five-foot wide table. The bottom of the posts can be hitched onto a table top with a thickness of up to two inches. Ideally, having a lip of 1 to 1 1/2 inches is ideal, but a 1/2 inch lip is good enough to hold the net stably. The part of the posts that grip the table are rubberized, but you still might want to have a cushion of paper or cloth between the table and the post to avoid scratching.

    Once the net is set up, you can start playing. The game will be more authentic if your table is smooth, hard, and closer in size to a regulation table tennis table. Smaller tables may be more challenging and a rough or irregular surface may make the game less like real table tennis. But even though your table might not be up to the Olympic standards, this doesn’t seem to take away any of the fun of the game. I initially set this up on our dining room table because it was the largest table in the house. I made the decision to leave a thin tablecloth on the table, to avoid damage from the posts and scratching from the bouncing of ping pong balls. The tablecloth slowed down the game just a bit, but did protect the table’s surface and the kids didn’t seem to mind. The slight cushioning from the tablecloth slowed down the game a bit. That might seem like a liability, but actually made the game more playable for my eight year old, who otherwise might not have been as competitive. I tried it on two smaller sized tables and the results were different in terms of play but had the same fun factor.

    The posts and the net are solidly constructed. The paddles are decidedly mediocre: you could certainly purchase higher grade paddles if you were interested, but these were just fine for those of us who only casually play the game. The balls are somewhat thick walled, a little slower, and a little less bouncy than your usual ping pong ball. Even so, they were more than serviceable for the purposes of playing table tennis and the thickness made them a little more kid-friendly when it comes to breakage.

    All in all, the kit worked better than I had imagined. I was pleasantly surprised and my kids were occupied for hours. I received this set through the Amazon Vine program, but the pricing looks appropriate. A great time was had by all–Recommended.
