Camp Table

[lostntranz]

I use it as a shelf. I can pull out the cases below it, they just slide. Stuff on the table can stay put while I access anything below it.

I use my rig for daily/family things, so I don't use drawer systems or anything. That table allows me to divide the rear.

This is absolutely brilliant! Thanks for sharing!

I've been searching for some time a compact, practical camp table. it must fold away to a transportable size yet be sturdy enough to prepare food or allow kit to be organised on.

I'm interested to find out if there is a commonly used item amongst the OB team.

Makes, models, dimensions and approximate prices would be useful

This is the table I use had for 3 years no problems with it. Find strong enough to prep food and place heavy objects on. Hope this helps

I just purchased this one a few weeks ago. It is very small when collapsed and rolled and seems pretty sturdy/durable so far. It assembles and disassembles in a few seconds as well. They have a variety of sizes and are very reasonably priced compared to similar products.

In addition to the table I show in post #9, I also have one like this one above ^^^^ Mine doesn't have a brand name, but loos exactly the same. Mine is about 18" square and about 18" tall.

Been really happy with the Camp-Rite table. Super quick and easy setup and folds down to about the size of a camp chair.

I have the same one and really like it. I like that the roll top stays attached to the frame and that it packs down to about the size of a long camp chair.

I don't even have to throw it in the basket as it fits width wise in the back of the Forester.

How do you secure the table in place while traveling?

Just to be specific. I have a 2013 LR4, but I think the rear cargo storage area is exactly the same on the LR3. The area where the table sits is where the factory cargo pull cover would go, and I think that stayed the same.

I went to Walmart today to buy a Coleman 2 burner, and I saw this 4 foot foldable table with extendable legs. Half of it is that white plastic, the other half is a metal mesh. Small, light, compact, and it even has a handle to carry it by. And the best part is my wife likes the idea of putting the stove on the metal mesh side, because she thinks it will melt the plastic on the table, and/or the plastic on the inside of the tailgate. So her not fretting over that will save me some aggravation.
Now, can ya beat that?

I am a fan of Lifetime tables. They tend to be rugged, yet affordable.
They can be had at Costco and the big box stores.

My camping table is the 4ft folding version. It is currently $43 at Lowes.

It has multiple height options, folds, and has a carry handle. When packing, I lay it down first and stack gear on top of it.

The feet are a little small, so I went to Lowe's and picked up some larger rubber feet that fit over the existing plastic feet. This helps keep it from sinking in soft ground.

They have a smaller 30"x20" table, but the 4ft model folds down smaller.



Good luck, TR

We have used one of these for several years https://www.lifetime.com/lifetime-22950-4-foot-commercial-grade-folding-table-white

And I welded two pieces of light angle under the RTT rack and the table slides in for storage , similar to the"Pro table under rack bracket" by Frontrunner. (sorry for the crummy pic).

How do you secure the table in place while traveling?

The table is secure from the front (against cargo barrier) and side to side. It is pretty tight. So it wont slide by itself at all. To properly secure it (other than putting crap on top of it) you can just put straps over the table on each side to the tie down points on the floor.

I have always just used my tailgate.

That’s a pretty cool trailer! Got anymore pics of it?
