Title: Camp tables !!!
Post by: Blackcarbon on September 03, 2013, 12:29:35 PM
Hi all still need a good solid table for our camper.
Will probably old it flat and put on top of bed I camper before we pack up, after a good solid one that don't wobble and of sturdy construction.
What's everybody using for general camping, eating,cards and drinking?
Cheers

Those common blow mould tables are the best IMHO

We have several of different sizes for various uses. They are robust and easy to use. My only complaint would be that the plastic tops are a pain to clean.

There was a recent thread on tables in the last couple of weeks that had some good info. I would posy you up a link but I struggle to copy and paste with the IPad.
I have a large plastic bifold table with metal fold out legs. At a guess it is about 1800x900. It is a little heavy but is solid and sturdy.  It is pretty common at BigW Kmart Bunnings for around $30-40.  The other small table we have iis around 700x900 (I think). It is not as solid at the big table but it is extremely light, made from aluminium, also bifolds and cost around $35-40 at Kmart recently. I posted a pic of it on the recent table thread I mentioned before. Good luck. Muz.

I've had a coleman table for close to 10 years now and it's still going strong. Still available on ebay, but not listed on Coleman website anymore. Legs fold into table top, which then folds in half. Great table

We have the Oztent bifold table:

Very sturdy and well put together. Seats our family of 4 around it with room to spare.
It folds into 3, making it easy to pack, but you could just as easily lie it flat on the bed.

Hoping that works that is the link to the other post.  At the moment we use the aluminium one that folds down into like a chair bag size it is not super sturdy but is light and easy to carry.  We have one of the large blow mould ones and if we are going for long stays it is good I think a smaller version of that would be better space wise.

The blow mould with steel frame are the best for "sturdy platform" and quickest for set up/pack down.

The Slatted table design like Roman Camping design offer the best in both, pack down and are sturdy HOWEVER take time in setting up.

Bunnings and office works all buy the same blow mould products

There are some really good ones and not too expensive at the big green shed.  We have this one and a smaller one for the Weber.  They fold flat so easy to store.

You can still get one nearly the same from BCF. we've had a coleman one as well for about 6 years, very happy with it.

we have three different one small about he size of a card table one full size solid and one full size that folds in half - easy to cart around and stains add character a different story for each red wine stain  ;D
