Cornilleau 500M

Yes, the Cornilleau 500M is specifically engineered for outdoor use. Its weatherproof materials and durable steel frame are designed to withstand exposure to the elements, though we recommend using a protective cover during harsh winters or long periods of non-use to extend the table's lifespan.

Assembly does require some time and effort, as the table arrives in pieces. We recommend having two adults for the setup process to handle the heavier components safely and ensure the frame is aligned correctly.

With a 7.0 mm playing surface, this table offers a very consistent and reliable bounce that mimics indoor tables closely. It is significantly more stable and responsive than thinner, entry-level outdoor models.

The net is retractable, which is a convenient feature for storage. It automatically folds away when you collapse the table, so you don't need to remove it every time you want to store the unit.

Yes, the table supports playback mode. You can fold one half of the table into a vertical position to create a backboard, allowing you to practice your strokes and warm up solo.

The table features an integrated rollaway design with wheels, making it relatively easy to move across flat surfaces like a patio or driveway. However, due to its 172-pound weight, you should exercise caution when moving it over uneven terrain or thresholds.
