Portable camp tables
Anyone have any favorite portable Camp Tables that are sturdy for extending living space outdoors? Searching forum, was hoping to find a thread if it's out there can't find it.
Thanks,Randal

I'm having trouble posting a link but I've had the Camp Time Roll-A-Table for years. The legs screw on and off with each use, but it's a 3 minute job and seems sturdier than some of the ones with spring-up legs.

I have kids, so this table works for me. There are lots of variations. I got lucky and picked two up for $30 each. My wife and I put our folding chairs at the ends, the kids sit on the bench seats. Seems flimsy, but I have never had one break, until my wife ran one over with the van.

I have one of those in my attic. It’s probably 40 years old, if not more. Unfortunate it is a bit heavy as well as bulky so I don’t take it camping and usually use the picnic tables at campsites. But I agree, it is rugged.

Teach your kids not to stick their fingers in the holes in the seats, or better yet, get one that doesn't have holes.
Had to cut the kid's finger off to free her.

We sometimes take a white folding table...the legs slide up and down for different heights and it folds in half. We also use it all summer long for lacrosse tournaments, sitting heavy jugs of water and food on it. Very sturdy. Ours is this one:

I have that table offered by Walmart. It is heavy. I use it in the back yard, but i take this folding aluminum table camping. Weighs less than 10 lbs.

I wanted just a little table, so I found an 18"x26" at Aldi. Can't recall the exact price, but I know it was less than $20 (on sale).

We use a Lifetime brand folding plastic table (2'x4'ish) and place right up against the egg under awning. Use for cooking, coffee pot etc. Then use our folding chairs or campground supplied picnic table to sit and eat.

After my wife ran over one, a friend gave me one of his. It was slightly larger and red, but compared to the $30 ones, it weighed a ton. I can carry the table, two big fold up chairs, and an umbrella, that fits in the center hole of the table, to the beach.
Yeah, I don't travel light.

I have one of those aluminum tables. PITA. Pieces get lost, slide around. It won'y take much weight safely. I prefer the white folding table that is common, about 3x6.

I have a couple of these (Amazon) GCI Outdoor Compact Folding Camping Table, both large and small and really like them. Light weight but durable.

Also have this (Amazon) Camp Solutions Height Adjustable Aluminum Portable Folding Utility Table, 47 by 24 Inches. Have not had it camping, but have opened it and it appears to be very sturdy and should work very well.

I took a screenshot and saved to my desktop, but I can't seem to get it to post. I have a MacBook Pro, so maybe that is the problem.
