Shame you didnt buy before yesterday when there was a decent amount off!
I have this kitchen table and it is pretty good.
It comes folded in half, you unlip the sides and open it out then pull the legs down (or up - I find it easier to turn it upside down). Then turn it the right way up and slot the shelves in.
You have shelves on each side and a good solid table to use as a work surface. It isnt hugely adjustable though if the ground is uneven
I tend to use it for kitchen items. On one side I put all out crockery/cutlery/utensils etc and in the other I put packaged/non-perishable food. I use the top for the kettle and all the other paraphernalia.
It has mesh 'doors' on the cupboards which can be zipped shut or rolled back, with velcro to secure them. There are vent panels on the back, too.
One thing you do have to be careful of is how you close it back up. Make sure that you tuck in the material before trying to close it, remember to remove the shelves first and be really careful how you put the shelves back in. Mine arrived with one damaged because it hadn't been put in properly.
Here's mine from a few weeks back - it's usually much tidier than this though!
I think Vango used to make one like this (we used to have one). Nice as a tabletop and storage but not much good as a kitchen (Vango) because it just wasn't tall enough.
I got that one it does go with me on all camping trips but also dont use it for my kitchen. However use the storage underneath it and normally put my ehu unit it it to keep off the ground
The spec says 55-70cm tall. Sounds about as tall as the Vango one, then. Most camp kitchens are around 80+cm tall. This is a good one (we had the Vango Brisbane, which looks identical) and fulfills all your requirements: sturdy/easy to open/close/clean/heat resistance level.
We have two of these, we got from Argos a. Couple of years ago for about £30 each. We have one in the porch with legs extended for the cooker and store crockery and utensils one side and dry goods other side.
The other one we have in the living area with legs low to eat at. Too low for us but the child can then reach. We keep cereals and breakfast bits in this one and books, games the other side.
Wouldn't go without at least one of these tables even for the weekend.
Yes it is a little low as a kitchen but at the time was a good price and good worktop size. Came in carry bags.

Why, how much was it yesterday?

They had an offer on - and they've just posted a new offer on all camping equipment - 20% off with the code on the website which would make this a total bargain
We have the Coleman 6 in 1 table. It can be set up as one table or two single tables, and at three different heights. We tend to use it as 2 low level tables, one for in the tent, another in the porch for the camping stove. Super useful.
