Best Choice Products 8ft Plastic Folding Table, Indoor Outdoor Heavy Duty Portable w/Handle, Lock for Picnic, Party, Pong, Camping - White

Perfect table. Sturdy to use..decent size and folds up easily.

Loved it, solid, long, easy to assemble. On the heavy side but that's ok

I make and sell jewelry and use a folding table to go to fairs. My old 18 year old table finally broke and I was looking for a new one. This one caught my attention simply because it is black in color since I personally have "things" against white plastic furniture. It's just white plastic looks "cheaper" to my taste:). I'm so glad I took a chance and bought this table (since at the time it was not reviewed yet ). This table is exactly what I was hoping for and compared to the old one it has more pluses in design and functionality. The edges of the table are more rounded. The plastic is thicker and looks more durable. The metal parts are well welded. The locking mechanism of the legs slides easily and is designed to eliminate any possibility of losing it (see photo). It's very stable. Does not have a bad odor either. When the table is unfolded, there is no gap between the two parts. In the folded position the thickness of the table is approx. 3 and 3/8 inches. The surface of the table has a matte finish. The table has some weight (compared to my old one), maybe for someone this is a disadvantage in the sense of carrying it, but for me it is a plus as I had a couple of times when at the fair some kids were not behaving well (to say the least...) bumping into my lighter old table and flipping my stuff on the floor. The unfolding mechanism is a bit tight, but personally I prefer more tight than loose, however for a person with bad arthritis it might be a bit of a challenge to unfold the table.... Hard to say... I don't have this problem and only notice it in comparison to my old table. Perhaps it will become more loose with time and use. In addition to the above, the box arrived earlier than promised and the packaging was decent. I bought this table on prime big sale days and would highly recommend this table.

The price is right and works perfectly for what we needed it for. It’s not the best, but it will do just fine . For the price it’s a great deal

This is a handy, simple to set up table that for use in a home office. Each leg consists of two pieces, with one piece separate from and to be inserted into each folding leg. When folding the table back up after use, the separate leg pieces snap into the bottom of the table surface. It's an extra step when setting the table up or taking it down, but only takes a few seconds. It's a little heavier than expected, but sturdy.

Sturdy! Longer than most so fits more people. Great for Seafood Boils!!!

Durable and sturdy.

Pros: 1.) It's made of Plastic. They use High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and Steel. Other foldable tables use Resin (which can have a grindy/grating/dry feel) or a wood veneer (which often lead to sharp edges). For a commercial banquet table (or a rarely used party table) this doesn't matter so much, but for a table you plan to spend hours working on, your forearms will grow to appreciate the smooth curves and soft finish. This is a job WELL done by the manufacturer! 2.) The Perfect Size. This is the Goldilocks of table sizes. Not too big, not too small, and not too skinny. I can roll up to this thing on the left or right without hitting my knees on anything structural (I'm 5-10). This is not a Team Table. This is a Lone Wolf Table! Here I may sit with a big mousepad, full keyboard (with numeric pad), squishy wristpad, TWO 24-Inch Monitors, a stack of papers, two big Speakers, my gaming pad (which I macroed for programming), a big cup for hydration, and still have room for snacks. I can even eat full meals at this station without needing to make room. 3.) Mobility. You can fold this thing up, throw it in your little car, and go. I bought this as a Makeshift Command Center, so when I visit my business partner in another city, or a client out of town, I have a place to sit and hammer out some serious code in either my buddy's spare room or in the hotel while on the road. Disclaimer: I haven't used this in a hotel room yet. I've had rooms with big tables, some with small tables, table built-in's facing opposite the TV, and others with sadistic round tables, so it'll be nice to know this is laying in the trunk should I feel the need. It's also great having a portable table you can use while your buddy codes along side you in the same room (I've actually done this before with our tables facing a big window at night in Vegas while we worked there all week and it was awesome). I may now lay out my all my portable gear: a 17-inch laptop in "Tent/Stand Mode", full keyboard, mouse, programmable macro-pad, and USB monitor (as a 2nd monitor). In case you were wondering, this laptop does exist, it's the Dell Inspiron 17 7000. Suggestions: 1.) Color Options. I would buy this again in a dark brown - anything dark, so it doesn't stand out like someone still has yet to break down the party from the night before. It's a bit of an eyesore with my black gear and wires running all over it in a dark living room. 2.) Move the Handle. You cannot rest this thing anywhere while holding the handle because the two sharp circular thin hinges protruding out of the bottom will rip up your hardwood floor. You must always be aware of this and remember to set on its side instead. 3.) Make it Easier to Open: I shouldn't have to summon the strength of 10 feral orangutans to open this thing. Cons: My first review of this table was harsh. I complained about the table: 1.) having sharp hinges sticking out, 2.) the placement of the handle so the sharp hinges scrape up the floor, 3.) difficulty opening, 4.) mine arriving damaged and cracked (I'd blame UPS for this, but just look at all the other photos people have posted - this is a serious issue with this table, so I'm thinking they need to do a better job protecting my purchase when packaging). Difficulty Opening: When I say "difficulty opening", I mean you need some serious he-man strength with construction worker hands to open this thing by yourself. It was embarrassing trying to open it in front of others before I had to give up and ask for help. What can I say? I have delicate little coder-hands that have never seen a day of hard work. It could be mine needs a few more open-close cycles before "loosening up", or maybe mine was manufactured with a tighter fit than most, or maybe (which is most likely) I'm a whiny little wimp! It's all about Leverage: Now, when I sat this down (hinges first) on my carpet, I was able to open it up with only my hands, like a man. When I try opening it on it's side (like you'd do when trying to avoid scratching up your hardwood floor), I couldn't do it. I concluded the force I was exerting by bending over to open it with hinges against the carpet, gave me the leverage needed to pry it open because I was pushing down on it hard with my elbows pointing towards the floor at 45 degrees. You don't have this leverage when opening from the side. Solution: Walk it over to a carpeted area or grassy patch and crack it open before setting it up on a delicate surface - problem solved! Compared to Other Tables: I decided to look for another table. That's when I noticed how mine is made of soft/smooth plastic, and others weren't. Then I noticed that those with the hinges that did not protrude while folded, had theirs protrude below while the table when open, so you might feel it with your leg or rub your hand along it while sitting. The arm of my chair or FitBit would definitely scrape up against it, if it were there - which I'm glad it's not. This is when I realized they designed it this way for a reason - to prevent the hinges from being visible or touchable when open. The reason why it closes so tightly is to keep it from opening up when you pull it by the handle. All of the tables I looked at (that were sturdy and could hold 300lbs) weighed about 20lbs or more - so this tracks. Then I noticed this foldable table size (which is really a "Desk Size") was rare compared to the square and 6ft tables. Summary: After this realization (and after using this table for weeks with no issues since opening it), I rewrote this entire review and changed my rating. At home I'm trying it out in the living room to work on while glancing at the TV and being in the middle of the goings on, but I doubt I'll be allowed to do that for much longer - as it is an eyesore to those around me. I recommend this table for the type of work I do. Thank you Best Choice Products for making this my... best choice.
