Dimitris Stavropoulos Asked 11 years ago
Hello there Alois and Jeff,
I'm interested in buying a table tennis table and I have seen that there are 16mm and 19mm thick tables. Which one is better?
Thank you a lot,
Dimitris from Greece

Hi Dimitris,
The thicker the top the better the bounce is usually.
The type of wood used also makes a differences but if the wood is the same on both then the thicker wood is better.

The thickness of a table tennis table is the most important aspect of a table to ensure you get a true consistent bounce. Other things to consider are the net, portability, and storage space.
