Blue Ravine Folding Table, Steel, 4ft

I have three of these tables, the first which I don't think they sell anymore is slightly different in appearance and setup than the later two.Firstly, the new design of the table has a beveled edge around the table, and their logo brandished on the left and right end of the table. Personally I prefer the older design because it has slightly more work space.Secondly, the legs can be adjusted to three different heights (unlike the single height of the first design). I like this option, however to adjust the height you need to push in a spring and slid it up or down to the next hole. This would be fine and dandy were it not for the fact that one leg is joined to the opposite leg via a horizontal bar support, so you need to press both springs, and yet still have another hand to move the leg. So this kinda makes it a two person realistically.Third - The plastic handle used to transport the table is gone. It's more of a strap.Fourth - When flat, you don't use metal L pins to keep the two halfs in position, as the new design has a lever that clicks it into place (it's situated in the middle of one side). I'm fine with this change, as I nearly lost an L pin quite recently.And finally, the leg structure is slightly different. The diagonal support is higher on the new design, smaller, but is closer to the front, and does not use a ring to keep the legs locked outward, but an overlapping lock system. I like the less obtrusive layout, but the lock has a tendency to not remain fully locked out.Both tables have the same slight texture on it, which if you are planning to use a suction based attachment on it, will not work.For me, the table will be kept in place rather than be moved about on any regular basis, so the later points aren't so much an issue for me. My main gripe is the bevelling and branding. It's such a minor gripe, but I feel it doesn't really add anything to the new design. If you intend to move and unpack this regularly, I would recommend maybe a different table - although most folding tables I have seen all seem pretty much identical - or wait till they improve the issue with the height adjustment specifically, especially if it's going to be a solo effort setting them up.

This table is just what I was looking for and very reasonably priced. It was dispatched by overnight courier so arrived next day. However the table provided has different legs and folding arrangement to that shown in the photographs. My table has four 12 inch folding braces (like the ones used on aluminium top camping tables) instead of the longer central mounting 'tripod' arrangement shown in the photographs. There are no central latches and the handle is side mounted flexible tape, not hinged end mounted solid plastic as shown. I am satisfied that this table is robust enough to meet my requirements but cannot give 5 starts as it does not match that shown in the photographs.

Product was not in stock and took over a month to arrive. Communication was not great either, although they did provide a discount as compensation.Unfortunately the table itself is quite unstable. Whilst the majority of it is very well made, the legs of the 4ft version are telescopic and wobble quite considerably when fully extended (to match the height of a standard folding table). Overall not a great purchase.

I am really pleased with this table. I got it for my craft work and it is really stable. I found it really easy to put up and take down - it takes about 2 minutes, if that. There is a bit of a knack to it though: when unfolding the legs, it helps to be quite firm when clicking them into place. When extending the legs, push one of the ball bearings in and then move that side up a fraction and then do the other ball bearing, As soon as both have clicked out of the holes just tap on the leg brace to raise the legs. When taking it down, repeat the process with the ball bearings to shorten the legs. When folding the legs back into place, push at the middle of the folding brace (towards the centre of the table), one side at a time, then fold back into place. Make sure the carrying handle is not trapped and then press on the little lever to fold up the table.

Not sure why some people have been reporting problems with setting these tables up. Mine arrived today and took mere seconds to fit the legs in and assemble. Perhaps there have been improvements to the fittings not sure. I bought two, to make a 4' by 4' gaming table. Almost didn't buy based on some of the bizarre negative comments about assembly- and some even saying they needed two people (?!). I'm baffled. My ten year old nephew could put these tables up and take them down.My only minor negative is that there is very slight rocking with the tables. Not a problem for what I need it for and barely noticeable, but if you were using it for crafts etc then that could be a problem. Otherwise, solid purchase. Does what it says on the tin.

Does what I want it to do and then fits behind the sofa in my small house. Marginally less stable than the larger tables (I have the next size up as well), but for eating it's great. A huge plus, it folds down really small, and is very easy to assemble

Great, sturdy table but leg brackets are stiff and need some force to extend or fold - otherwise perfect. Legs extend to 3 preset heights - which are perfect for coffee table height plus too full table heights.

I bought this table to accommodate my daughter and her tutor twice a week for tuition sessions. I set it up when needed and take it away after it's been used. It seems to be the perfect alternative to the only other table in the house which sits in the kitchen. It's sturdy enough to take the weight of books and notebooks, and of child leaning on it while writing. It's only downside is that you need two people to extend its legs to their full height. My kids are very happy to help with that.
