Outstanding Value and Very Well Made
I spent a LOT of time and energy comparing these 8-10 seat tables, folding and otherwise, both on and off Amazon. I wanted to keep it in the ~$300 range. I kept coming back to this table on Amazon. Crossed my fingers and ordered it. $200 delivered just seemed too good to be true. I got lucky, this is an amazing table!! Here's some info and details on what arrived. Showed up 2 days early. Nice. Box was literally torn and VERY smashed on one side. Not nice. Opened it, and it's packaged as a box within a well-packaged box, NO damage! Very nice!! It's heavy, about 60-70 lbs. Best to have 2 reasonably strong adults set this up, but the good news is it unfolds and legs in place, turned upright and ready to use in about 1 minute. The quality is really shocking for the price, well made and very sturdy. Doesn't lean or rock in any way. The table lays FLAT, and I'm talking use a beam level and see for yourself flat. The halves meet beautifully in the middle with NO uneven seam. The felt is a cross between a nice table felt and speed cloth. The printing is not an overlay, it is inked into the felt, so no flaking or surface issues. Mine has a few small spots that look like they didn't get inked, but they are very small. The padding under the felt is 3-4mm and very well done. There is no slack whatsoever and the felt is nice and even, a dream to deal on. This surface doesn't look capable of "pilling" but time will tell. It's definitely not standard felt material. Cards glide from end to end dealing with ease, card control takes very little time to master on this surface. The rail is well made, nicely padded and even all around. Comfortable and seems durable. The cup holders are very nice, level, and a reasonable size. Standard cans and bottles are perfect. A 14oz Old Fashioned glass didn't quite fit, but a 24oz tumbler from the same set fit perfectly. Your mileage may vary on glass size, but again bottles, cans, and many of my glasses work great. The holders are deep enough to prevent minor accidents and seem to be made of fairly sturdy stainless steel. I've included a number of pictures to depict my assertions above and I hope they, along with the review, help you decide on a table. At $200, delivered, this was a steal, and now that I own it, it's a no-brainer buy if you're looking at these sort of tables.
