If your searching for a buyers guide and suggestions for a portable camping table then you will benefit from the information and suggestions here.

When preparing a camp site meal, many like the opportunity to sit comfortably and value cleanliness after the meal is prepared.

The ease of setting up a camp tables and the portability has made camp meal times a communal place for the family and friends to have great fun.

The main things to look out for when buying a table is how portable it is, is it sturdy enough? can it be easily stored at home, and it's abilty to fit within the car alongside other equipment to be transported.

Types....Where To Buy

Table with a bench or chairs attached: Many campers like a table that comes with benches included or chairs attached. This saves buying camp chairs and a table separately.

The main issue people have with a camping table that has benches or chairs attached, is they mainly cater for 4 people or a very small six. Many want a bigger table to cater for a larger family and friends.

Roll Up and Folding Camping Table Style: Roll up camp tables are popular for portability and small packing size. Many are made from aluminum and have a roll up top to be packed in a stuff sack. Larger folding camping tables are also made from aluminum and are probably the most popular. Buying one of these requires you to just decide what size is needed and find suitable chairs. Its worth trying to match the height of the chairs with the camping table. Otherwise you can end up with people needing extra long arms to reach up to the table.

My favorite roll up tables.

Where to buy (If none of the above are suitable): They can be bought from popular camping stores on and offline. However, for family and car camping trips what you are looking for is just a picnic table. Other stores that sell gardening equipment and household goods may have tables suitable and much cheaper. Many of these may not fold away as compact, but you will soon realise this when checking them out.
