Shoppers are praising a 'sturdy' folding table from Argos that's 'great for when family come' this Bank Holiday weekend. If you're planning some last-minute hosting, you might need extra dining space, and Argos' affordable folding table is ideal.
Perfect for Hosting
The May Bank Holidays often feel like the unofficial start of summer, providing a perfect opportunity to gather family and friends. However, if space is limited, finding seating for everyone can be challenging, whether indoors or outdoors. A folding table is a handy solution to keep in storage for such occasions, from bank holiday barbecues to Christmas dinners. Argos shoppers have been snapping up the Lifetime 6ft Folding Plastic Camping Table for £65.50 ahead of the long weekend.
Features and Benefits
This table is lightweight and easy to set up at a moment's notice. It folds in half with a carry handle, making it portable for camping or picnics. When folded, it measures 8.2cm high, 91.4cm wide, and 76.2cm deep, allowing for easy storage. When extended, it measures 182.9cm high, 69.9cm deep, and 182.9cm long, providing ample space for a group to dine or for laying out dishes during a barbecue. It is also useful for crafts, gardening, or car boot sales.
The table features a steel frame that resists rust and a plastic surface that is easy to wipe clean. For comparison, The Range offers a Foldable Banquet Table at £34.99 (down from £49.99), and Decathlon sells a Quechua Folding and Adjustable 4–6-Seater Camping Table with a wooden tabletop for £99.99 (down from £109.99).
Shopper Reviews
The Lifetime table has earned a 4.9-star rating out of 5. One shopper said: 'Very happy with my purchase great when family come and can fold it up and put away until the next time.' Another wrote: 'So happy I bought this table. It’s perfect to accommodate my entire family when used alongside our dining table. It’s sturdy and stable and easy to erect. Chuffed to bits!'
However, some noted minor issues: 'Quite solid but having said that the plastic top had a dent in one corner. Will take quite a weight of items if required. Does not open up completely flat 28mm from end to end, although each section flat. Suitable for what I require.' Another said: 'Too heavy to fold away and put in garage after a bbq. So bought 2 lightweight folding small camping tables instead.'
Despite this, many praised it: 'Sturdy additional table for family gatherings. Managed to seat eight. Definitely recommend.' And: 'Perfect party table, had many uses!! Stable, great size.'
