Customer Reviews of ALPS Mountaineering Portable Dining Table

Reviewed by Sean from So Oregon on Monday, May 06, 2013

The table top folds up nicely, but the frame folds to the length of the table which is a bit long and makes the carrying case awkward. It will work great for car camping, if you have the room to pack it. I have multiple chairs made by this company and they are durable. I expect the same to be true about this table.

Fragile

Reviewed by Nomad from White Salmon, WA on Monday, March 11, 2013

This table broke the first time I used it. I set a 1-gallon water jug on it near the edge and the legs buckled. It can't be repaired. It's ok if you're cautious about weight and placement.

great camping table

Reviewed by kayakman from Johnstown, PA on Wednesday, December 28, 2011

It's a very nice, stable, and light table. But it is hard to fold the accordion top and wrestle everything back into the storage bag. It is much larger than I thought it would be, I wished I would have checked the measurements better before I ordered. However, it might be nice to have the extra space. I will know better after using it a time or two.

Best Uses: Campgrounds, Outdoor Events, Road Trips
Cons: Bigger than I thought, Difficult to fold table, Hard to fold table top, Hard to pack into storage

not very sturdy

Reviewed by boisean from boise, Id on Tuesday, November 08, 2011

Alps has 2 versions of this table. One version has the slats arranged in a square patterm. The other has all of the slats running perpendicular to the long edge of the table top. I got the second version. It is not very sturdy and feels like it would bend easily with relatively light loads. Reviews I have seen for the other version of this table all talk about how sturdy it is. This one is not. I ended up returning it.
