Just got two excellent pieces of kit from Argos this week. The first was the Regatta kitchen with the double larder which at £49 was half the price of equivalent kithens. The kitchen can be used with either side table folded down (or indeed both!) and is a really sturdy piece of kit, added bonus that it comes with a windshield too even though there is no mention of this in the catalogue. Its also quick to put up too!
The second was the aluminium folding picnic table (the type with the seats attached) again this is really sturdy and will take 4 adults no problem, the spec gives a weight limit of 110kgs per seat which is quite substantial. The table is £55 at the moment and seems to be worth every penny. The only thing I will say about the table is the table is a little high for my 5 year old when sitting down, probably have to buy a booster cushion of some sort!

The seats seem fine as they are but you may want cushions anyway especially if you have kids as the table height is a little on the high side when sittng on the seats, even for an adult!

We have hat picnic table and have no problems with uncomfortable seats. It's well worth buying and ours has sat many a camper at it.

We bought the table last time it was in the sale and it was great - really sturdy and my 2 year old just kneeled up to use it. It was far easier for him than our previous charis around a table as he could at least get close enough.
