The table itself is great, but I am not a fan of having to cart two pieces around when moving or storing the table. I was looking for more of a traditional table that folded in two, but this table is not setup to do that.

Does not “fit” open table as advertised. Rather it awkwardly lays on top of the table. It would blow off in a second. Really it should only be advertised as for use with a folded table. We want to leave our table open, so it does not suit us at all.

Doesn't cover the table well when the table is fully open (it is awkward where the net is located). The material is very thin and I expected something more substantial given the price.

Nice table tennis cover. Have gone through 2 of these now. They last about 2 years of continuous outdoor use in Texas. Few observations: when it rains, the top fills with water (but doesn't leak); wind has blown this off a few times so now use spring clips on both sides at the bottom to keep the wind from catching and blowing off. Lettering also fades in the sun. Overall, nice product, could be a little more durable.

We bought one of these in the spring of 2011, and it has held up exceptionally well! Groups of enthusiastic middle school kids have managed getting it on and off with no problem, and it's held up well to everything from impatience, to heat, to stormy days. Our table is stored against our back wall, mind you, so it does get some protection, and we are NOT in hurricane alley, but this has gone through some very wet, windy conditions and looks nearly new even today. No fading that I can see. Sturdy zippers, nice, roomy, squared top, long sides, and strong material. We are VERY satisfied. (Now, if only there were something to keep the spiders out!) Highly recommended. :).

I forget what the package said about it working outdoors or not. I remember reading other reviews before I bought this, and many complained of these things (various online covers) falling apart outdoors. Wow. This is a top end product, and one look at it and it's obvious it is Never going to work outdoors. You want to protect your table outdoors? Make your own cover out of thick plastic, don't buy a cover online. I use mine in my garage. Works perfect, and looks like it will last a good long time.

While this table tennis cover may be a little better than most, it's still just fair. I have purchased Kettler covers for my Kettler table that would wear out pretty quickly. They would tear especially in the corners and fray at the edges. I thought I would purchase a different brand. This Butterfly cover is made from thin fabric, and I can see that pretty soon the sharp corners of the table will poke through and make holes in the fabric. I have a standard size Kettler table and the Butterfly cover is a little bulky for it and doesn't hang neatly. I also think the large "Butterfly" label on the cover is ugly.On the positive side, the cover is easy to put on and remove. For the money, as it was expensive, I expected a better quality cover. My recommendation is to purchase a different one. This one is not worth the money. Unfortunately, I've looked a lot of places and have yet to find anything high quality in either brick-and-mortar stores or online.

I own a nice Kettler Master Pro Table. It is 5ft wide and 9 ft long. The Master Pro is almost a $1000 outdoor table -- I want something to protect it and I am so tired of throwing money away on those plastic or PVC covers that crack, rip, tear as soon as you get them. The table is down in its play position 24-7-365 on an outdoor court in my backyard. This Butterfly product may work well for tables that are in a folded storage position. However, I would not recommend this product if you are intending to use this cover outdoors and your table is down and is in the play position - with or without the net up. The cover will not lay flat. The part of the cover that would go over the net bunches up and looks terrible and the cover barely will cover the actual table surface at this center point. I thought about using a few tarp clips and bungie/elastic cords to try to make use of the cover or maybe a few spring clamps on each corner of the table to hold the cover down in place. But then I thought -- I just spend $64+ dollars for a table tennis cover. It should be designed to work. For $64, there should be some system to secure the cover in its lay-flat position. Needless to say I returned it the same day. I will not support a manufacture that can't design a cover to protect a table when it is in its play position. How hard can it be to make a cover like that. What is more surprising is that I can't find anyone that makes a decent cover for our table when they are in their down position. Maybe I'll design something since no one else can seem to do it.For now, after returning the Butterfly Cover which uses some pretty thin nylon fabric, I visited Harbor Freight and picked up a Silver 9mil 8Ft 6 inches X 11 Ft 4 inches tarp for $12 (wasn't on sale that day and my 20% off coupon expired) and I picked up 4 3 1/2 spring clips for a couple bucks each - one for each corner of the table. Within 2 minutes, the tarp covered the table beautifully (with the net up) and I used the clamps (squeeze and let go to clamp) to hold the 9 mil tarp in place. For $20, I have a solution that will keep water, leaves, dirt, etc off the table through the winter and summer. The tarp will not crack in the winter and a 9 mil tarp will last several years with rain, wind, and sun. And, oh by the way, it looks good. The clamps fold the excess tarp under the table so it has this almost custom look appearance.Bottom-line - you can easily make a MUCH better solution for a lot less money that will last longer and look nice. Again it amazes me that someone simply doesn't create a pattern from tarp material or some better grade nylon material and sews it some elastic around the corners so it hugs the table like a mattress pad cover would on your bed.

First day thoughts: Very good value. Heavy duty cordura nylon looking material. Using it on my Kettler outdoor table. Good coverage all the way down to about 6 inches from the ground when the table is folded up. Heavy enough where I don't think wind will ever blow it off.My only regret is that it droops severely at the top on account of my table folding tightly together at the top giving it a triangular shape. The cover is rectangular just like the picture. The excess fabric creates a few large folds that make a great looking cover look like a tarp I threw over the table(maybe not that bad). I don't deduct from my 5 star rating because the picture and dimensions are accurate. I should have known it would fit this way. None the less I am happy with my purchase.

I bought 2 for 2 separate tables and they fit fine. They'll cove all the way down to the wheels without dragging on the floor. Both are frequent being taken off and put back on with ease and no signs of wear and tear yet. It's simple enough to fold away when not covering the table. The cover is recommended.
