Old flimsy fold-up "card type" tables are a thing of the past with modern molded plastics. Blow molded top is extremely strong and rigid. The steel legs with arch supports fold flush into the top with steel clips to secure them. The folded table is less than 2" thick and can be stored under a couch as another reviewer noted. I bought this to use as a sewing machine table because of limited space in my one bedroom apt. I'm sure I will be using it for many other task. It is a nice size for this as well as many other uses. I definitely recommend it to anyone needing an multipurpose folding table. Excellent product and worth its price.

Love this foldable table. It's sturdy, spacious and well made And for a good price. We have a large kitchen with insufficient work space so this table functions as an island. I even use itto roll pizza dough etc. It's a great practical find!

This little table suprised me.It can fit almost anywhere,and it is strong.
It is a very good table.

I bought this table for using in the backyard when we have friends come over for a BBQ or something. We used to use a wood dinner table from IKEA, it's too heavy. This one works very well, and it's light, but sturdy. We used it for our garage sale too. It's great, and the price is just about right. I bought another one today.

We use a table outdoors for our vegetable seedlings prior to being planted into the ground; this table is light-weight, water-proof and sturdy enough to stand tall through heavy rain-storms and the price was excellent. I'm thinking about getting a second table.....

This table arrived in a timely manner. It is precisely what I expected, and at a good price. Made of heavy duty roto-molded resin on top, with sturdy metal folding legs like you would see at many town halls, schools, etc. around the country.
I use it to expand my work area for PC operations, and it can easily double as a handy 'yard sale' display table (although a relatively short one I'll admit).
I am pretty certain this table will be around long after I am gone; it is just that well made and rugged!
Very Pleased with this practical, utilitarian purchase from Amazon.

I bought this because I'm too cheap to get a real desk. I use this as my study desk, work desk, and general use desk. It's durable, cheap, and very useful for everything hence "multipurpose".

No assembly needed.... opened the shipment , unfolded the table, voila !

Table is well balanced, solid and steady but little cheap looking

So I had to throw a tablecloth on it

This table serves as my desk, and I am sitting at one as I type this very review. When we relocated to a new city on a budget, my roommate and I purchased one of these tables so that we'd have something to eat off of during the first few days. The table impressed us so much that we ended up buying three more before all was said and done, and we use them for everything: as desks, as a kitchen table, and as all-purpose workspaces. Here's why I love them:
1) Ease of movement. Despite its stability and strength, it's quite light. Furthermore, the mechanism to fold the legs is simple and will not pinch you: just slide the lock ring up and fold. As a result, you can move or fold up the table on your own with ease. This is great if you are cleaning the floor, rearranging your space, or moving frequently.
2) Ease of cleaning. The nonporous plastic surface is a breeze to clean. No need to worry about damaging it even if you use harsh cleaning products.
3) Stability. Don't let the light weight of this table fool you: this thing isn't going anywhere. I have mine on a fairly slippery and sometimes uneven wood floor, and I often lean on the table when I type or eat--but it doesn't slide all over the place or wobble. I chalk this up to the high quality of the leg construction and the small plastic feet at the end of each leg.
4) Ease of assembly. Pull it out of the box and protective plastic bag, and then unfold the legs. Done. No hardware, help, or time required.
5) Height. I'm about 5'11" and this table works well for me. I do lots of typing at this table, with a standard folding chair for a seat, and in five months I haven't had any trouble with wrist or back pain. (Note that for someone of my height, this table is a little low to work at while standing).
6) Appearance. Many tables in this class sport ugly faux-wood tops. None of that here: the top, the overall appearance of which is not unlike light stone, is fashioned from a very lightly textured plastic of a freckled gray color. Metal legs of a slightly darker gray complement the top and complete the table's simple, clean, neutral look.
7) Price. Who could forget the price...this is a great deal. I made extensive comparisons with similar tables from other vendors (Staples, OfficeMax, WalMart, etc.) and found this to be the best deal. And let's not forget that finding a traditional desk or dining table for under $60 is nigh on impossible--this table is a great low-cost (and portable) alternative.
Enjoy!

Small (2ft x 4ft) folding tables are not as easy to come by as the more typical 6-foot tables, so I was happy to find them available at Amazon... AND with free shipping. The tables are very sturdy, easy to set up and refold, and stable enough to be used as a desk, which is my application. My only complaints are that the table is an IBM-PC, light gray, not white as described, and that the packing slip was an adhesive label, which was extremely difficult to remove without tearing. I'm sure that label cost a half-cent less than the usual folded packing slip in a plastic pouch, but it really sucks. The table, however, is terrific.
