Hi,

Have found this table which looks like it would suit us down to the ground but is a *little* pricey. Has anyone seen a similar one that folds down just as well?

Do you mean the exact same make and model or a similar one ?
If its a similar one check out Argos

Why do I get visions of kids bouncing the mesh to see how high they can get their peas to jump.

I would hazard a guess,that even if you do come across a similar item that is markedly cheaper..chances are it'll be a cheapier Chinese copy and probably won't last as long anyway...

Hello,
Thanks everyone - we have previously had the fold in stools version and will probably get another one (from Argos!). I just like the size of the Kelsyus one when folded as won't take up anywhere near as much space. With regard to the Coleman one - we have considered this option and will have to look at folded sizes. Thanks again everyone!

Hi Helen,
We have got the outwell version (seperate chairs but similar table made from material)think its called the rupert.

I dont know about the kelsyus one, but we are realy disappointed with ours. As soon as we start putting things on it the weight makes the material sink in the middle and so we spend the whole time trying to hold our plates straight and stopping them sliding into the middle of the table. We have melamine plates so they are not even heavy. I would advise seeing it in action before you invest as it is a lot of money to waste.
Hope this helps,
Mandy
