Question aluminum folding table

Anyone know where I can find a folding aluminum table that we could put under the awning to cook breakfast on? I can find many folding 'roll up' top tables on amazon, e bay, camping world; but am looking for a sturdier, all aluminum, suitcase-style folding table about the size of a card table, not too short when assembled. I saw a vintage one that was really cool. Any ideas where I can find one?! Thank you.

Try Googling "aluminum folding table" and see what you find...I did a quick one and there are lots of hits...you might be able to narrow the search to solid tops..

Good luck!

I bought one at a local liquidator. I've also seen them at camping stores and even Eddie Bauer. Mine is here:

Not quite card table size

We use this one......Mini Picnic Table with Stool Set at REI.com. It is smaller than a card table but with the little stools, it is quite handy. paula

Thank you for the suggestions! I have looked at the folding roll up tables and they have mixed reviews- seems they are not too sturdy. I would guess you sacrifice weight for sturdiness. The vintage one I coveted did weigh a lot but was not wobbly. The one that intrigues me here is the REI one- is the top of the table aluminum too? Thank you again- the forum is a great help!

The one that I posted is very sturdy. I'm quite happy with it. I believe you can order it off the website, if you're so inclined.

Yes, the top is aluminum. The stools fold up and snap inside of the table and it folds in half to make a suitcase style carrying case.....the little stools are sturdy enough for sitting but they make nice little end tables as well. The whole thing is compact and sturdy as well....good luck with your search. paula

This is the one I have. I will be using it to put the gas barbecue or electric frying pan on. I think this is the same table as above but without the seats.

I have the same one as the REI one, it's made by Coleman. It's a nice little setup and all aluminum. Rather sturdy for the size.
