We take far too much stuff with us when camping so trying to reduce for this year.

We normally take one the the folding blue picnic tables for eating outside and we have another table we keep inside the tent and we also have 4 folding camping chairs, but I have seen this linkand thought we could use it for inside and out, has anyone used one, are they any good?

On my "wish list" is something similar by Coleman, their Packaway Table plus 2 chairs for 2 people. The chairs have no backs and are made of aluminium.

They do a 4-people version I believe.

I am looking into doing something similar but my problem is complicated by the fact that my children are nearly 6 and 3, so its hard to get one table and set of chairs which suits everyone all day long.

My problem with the ones shelley has found is that they might not be supportive enough for the end of the night when i am feeling a bit , tired ( ahem)

Tescos do a similar version of this which we bought. The table is fab, but the stools are not very comfy as the metal digs in after sitting for about five minutes. In my opinion you would still need to take additional chairs for comfort.

Why not just use the table and folding chairs you arleady have - it would only take a minute to move them from inside to outside and vice versa.

We have a cheap £12 table and some of those tripod folding stools, perfect for sitting and having a meal and it does pack down smaller than our picnic table with attached seats.

Still need something more comfy for relaxing in though.
