IMG_2893.JPG Well, we gave the table a go but honestly found it in the way and a big beast , very lovely but a classic case of form over function . Its now packed in the attic. Easy to dismantle, 5 screws, and fabulous replacement obtained from The Range £20 hobby table. Lightweight and can be used in the awning. Looks trendy as well. Thanks to Fun member tip,,,brilliant!

Go the same for the exact same reason, only need the table if grandkids staying overnight. Only difference, forgot wine and photo which of course makes all the difference.enjoy.

Shame , the benny table looks classy but just so fiddly. The Range option is a winner! Great tip off from the forum

We just bought one to replace the big heavy table in our Bailey 740, fits nicely takes up a lot less space and is a lot lighter but very stable.

What model do you have? Was the table electric? Was it awkward to remove?

Oh my, that seems a long time ago ! It was a Benimar mileo 243
Wasnt electric.
Just really heavy and like a mission to put it up. If u forgot to put the locking catches on it was positively lethal.
Over engineered but the rest of the van was fine.
Left a few holes on the floor but we just had a mat there till we sold it and put the table back
