Functional and Convenient Table
I'm going to show my age a bit here—I grew up with those TV trays that were just meant to hold your meals while you watched your shows. But let me tell you, this table is way better! I needed something to tuck away when not in use, and it folds up easily for storage, whether in a closet or just propped against a wall. It’s a breeze to assemble and fold down, and the adjustable heights are super handy. At full height, it serves as an extra counter space for events, which is great for food prep or serving. It’s sturdier than those old TV trays. I’ve also used it as a desk for projects, and at its lowest, it works perfectly as a side table next to my lounge chair. The legs are attached, so setting it up is simple—no searching for loose parts! I've used it both indoors and outdoors, and even with the intense sun in the southwest, it’s held up wonderfully through the summer.

GREAT PERSONAL TABLE-TRAY
This table-tray is just adorable and way better than any regular tv tray. It’s like a tv tray but on a whole new level! It's wide enough to comfortably fit my laptop and mouse, have a good spread of snacks, work on a puzzle, or even play chess with a friend. I can also use it for my daily paperwork. You can tell it’s got the same solid quality as the larger foldable tables, just in a more compact size for one person. Plus, the height adjusts easily, so there’s really no reason not to grab one.

The BEST computer stand!
Why did I wait so long to get one of these? I have a few Lifetime tables already, but I hadn’t thought about a computer stand until recently. I use it in my living room to watch TV and enjoy a nice view of my park-like yard, which is way better than what I see from my office. I had been using a fancier and pricier stand for a couple of years, but it finally broke when the weld on the desktop failed. So, I decided to look for something not as fancy but more durable. I found this one from Hawkins Woodshop, and it looked like just what I needed. I’m really happy with it! It exceeded my expectations, especially since I've had good experiences with Lifetime tables. This table is the size for my laptop, a coffee mug, and some other stuff like my reading glasses. It’s lightweight enough that I can easily move it out of the way when I need to get around. The only thing I wish is that it came in black, but that's not a deal breaker at all. It feels way sturdier than my old stand, and I'm not worried about it having similar issues. Plus, I love being able to adjust the height. Overall, I’d give this a solid 5-star rating. I'd buy it again if I needed to!

Awesome and versatile table!
I have to admit, I grew up using TV trays for meals while watching my favorite shows. This table, though, is a whole different level! I was looking for something that could be tucked away when not in use, and this table does just that. It folds up easily, making it simple to store in a closet or lean against a wall. It's also super versatile. I use it as an extra countertop when we have guests or as a desk for schoolwork and crafts. The height adjustment is great—for kids too. I even have it at its lowest height next to my lounge chair for holding my magazines and iced tea while I relax outside. I love that the legs are attached, so there's no fumbling around when setting it up. I've kept it mostly on my patio in the blazing sun, and it has held up remarkably well—even through the hot summer in the southwest. Highly recommend!

Great Food Trays or Small Tables
I ordered two white ones. I really wanted the darker color but white was the only available color on sale. These are nice, more like a little table than a tray. I use one for eating in my bedroom. It's big enough for a full-size dinner plate, a drink glass, a little bowl and a little plate. Two people with two large plates and drinks could share it. It really is easy to unfold and setup. And, I am not someone who can set up and put things together! I really struggle with that so I was pleased I could do this in less than a minute. It is sturdy, the second one is used for now to store some books and papers. It's great for tax time or organizing bills, paperwork. Very easy to clean with a damp cloth and some Dawn dish washing soap. Or, just water if it's just dusty with no food stains. For one person, you may not need a 30 inch wide tray, but I like a lot of room. I even used one for my laptop when my office chair broke and wouldn't go higher. I wanted to buy 4 of them but they would only ship two at that time.

Perfect!
My husband and I both love to use our computers, but we only have one computer desk. He uses the desktop, and I use the laptop. The problem was, I prefer using an external mouse with my laptop, but we had no suitable tables that were big enough for both to sit on. I had to use two folding tables, and it just wasn't working. I ended up having to use our computer desk by putting the laptop in front of our desktop's monitor. So, if my husband wanted to go on the computer, he couldn't if I was using mine. I have been searching for an affordable, reliable, stable extra large table, so that I can fit my laptop on it (I believe it's a 16" widescreen, but I'm not 100% sure - it is larger than your average laptop), and have enough space next to it to use my external mouse. This table went above and beyond my needs and expectations! Everything fits perfectly, with lots of moving space, on this table. I'm always worried about dropping my laptop, but this table is completely sturdy and secure, yet it's light enough for me to move it around with the laptop on it! (I have back problems and no upper arm strength, so that's saying a lot!) I love the way the legs are situated, too, because I can pull this table as close to me as I want. Love the rounded edges, so I can rest my arm on the edge comfortably, too! Being able to adjust the height was one of the reasons I checked out this table, and it came in handy. Regular folding tables can be too short, at least for what I needed from them. This sits at the perfect height for me to comfortably use my computer! I do agree with most people about the height adjusting lock, though. It's not a flimsy piece of plastic (though it is plastic), but it is difficult to move. However, I like that, because to me that means it's not going to slip, and cause my computer to fall! I just have my husband adjust it, (we've only needed to once, since the height we have it at is perfect for everything), but I do understand why some people are put off by it. If someone can't adjust it themselves, and they have no one to help them, it would pose a problem. I primarily bought this table to use just for my laptop, but it has quickly become a table of many uses! When my niece comes to visit me, she loves for us to color together. There is enough space for us to color on the same table, taking up less space in my modest living room. We also use it for playing board games, (though, just so everyone knows, there's no enough space for loose pieces, such as in Monopoly or life), and we don't have to stretch across a regular table to make our moves! My husband and I have used it for a serving table for when we decide to eat in the living room. (Hey, it's Summer, and that's the room with the ac in it! Lol) I've used it as my dinner table when there's large plates and side plates/bowls! There are so many different uses for this table! As a fair warning, since it is difficult to adjust, we never fold it, so it usually just sits somewhere where it's not in the way when it's not in use. All-in-all, I love this product, and I am beyond happy that I decided to buy it! I had passed it up a few times in my search, because I was trying to find something cheaper, but for how awesome this table is, the price is great!
