Lots but slow learner.
Been searching for a good quality fold up table from the usual sources. No luck
Our Bailey come with 2 tables, a indoor small 2 set that clips to the side, and one free standing wobberly one that too big to use in or outside.
Looking for one with a top of 60 X 70cm. Must be sturdy.
Could anyone point me to a suitable table shop.
Ta as usual.
 
Go Outdoors usually have a good selection, or try local caravan & camping accessory shop.
Not tried Go-Outdoors but tried at least 5 caravan and camping places. Cheap wobbly ones are 10 a penny. Size we want is also a weird size.......so i am told.
 
We’ve got the Clara M……..most folding tables will not be as sturdy as a non folding, but this may give you an option. You can find them cheaper if you shop around. (y)

 
Our Duckdalf folder is very sturdy with 4 separate legs, each one is telescopic on a spring so is easy to set up. Folds in half and locks into place once erect. I assume they have different sizes

Thanks for that.
The fold up table we had in the Autotrail was great, solid and appeared great quality.
Will look at the link you sent, Ta.
 
We took out our fixed Hymer table the other day and replaced with a Lagun table leg, I had ordered a new custom made table top from Chippys Workshop (following a recommendation on here) but instead put the Hymer table top on the Lagun fixing. So I have now ordered folding legs to screw onto the table top from Chippys Workshop to make my own folding table, mainly to use outside the MH.

So you could think about making your own simply and no more expensive than buying one but design it to be exactly the size and look that you want.
 
I got this from Amazon for setting up my drone on-site. It's sturdy enough for me to be happy to sit my drone on it. It can also be weighted down if it's windy. https://amzn.to/3Az4ZRc

Repeat post avec Claude et maude, Look in your local timber yard they will have loads of worktop off cuts from 15mm to 60mm thickness, edge with trim that they can cut to size and then fit the legs from Chippys, then custom made, easy
 
For what it’s worth, this is the table top we ordered from Chippys Workshop, the image is from one of our trips…

I’ll post a picture with the legs on once I’ve screwed them on.

And this is the old Hymer table top repurposed on a Lagun leg, it swivels and raises/lowers height easily so can be positioned almost anywhere in the lounge area or just be slid out and put in the garage…

google is your answer

Spent a lot of time on Mr Google and others. Todate all i have found is cheap and nasty looking, hence searching on here with all these long time MHs who know.
 
I like that for indoors but ideally one in and out would be preferable.
In that case I would suggest either the Chippys workshop route for a table design you want with a set of folding legs (the four folding legs I ordered were less that £20 on the South American rain forest site or do the same but with one of your existing table tops.

We’ve been long term camping with something like this, although a non-folding top version as we had a bespoke set of draws/slots in the truck to fit it in. Office suppliers might be a good source of similar if you want smaller sizes.

Amazon and eBay should throw up some options if you search under ‘Heavy Duty Folding Table’
 
Lafuma range is very sturdy.
 

A few on here.... French .... :Smile:

Hi.
DON'T laugh.
" B & M " Bargains ? . We were at a mates ,went in to one of their stores for a nosey around about two yrs ago Ascot Dr. Derby,came out with Two foldy up tables that we are using still. Made in Germany . £14,and some pence ( I had written shillings...Ooops :ROFLMAO: Jennifer does money ) Not only do they fold up very small,you can tilt the tops and use them as a small drawing desk. IF i could post on a photo,i would send it.

Don’t want to usurp thread but I’ve been looking for ages for a folding bench not attached to a table! Where else can I look for that?

Try a Google/Amazon/EBay search for ‘Heavy Duty Folding Bench Seat’. That should filter out the attached ‘picnic table’ types and the flimsy camping ones.
 
Well with all those suggestions we should find something to suit (but HRH is very fussy)
Going to get in touch with Autotrail to see if they will give me the name of the table they use in their Imala. That is a good un and would suit.
Ta for all the suggestions. Now the research begins.
