We've got that very table - bought it from World of Camping too.

It served us well enough during our first weekend away.  Have a 2 and a 4 year old and as long as there was one adult and one child on each bench, all was fine.  Don't think it would be wise to have 2 grown adults on each side, though.

It is available elsewhere with a carry bag - not provided with the WoC one.

One tip - I bought a couple "U" bolts from B&Q to fasten the legs to the ground - the kids tend to lean on the table.  They held it in place beautifully.

The table and bench set that I bought arrived the other day and I set it up in my kitchen for tea. Benches - very impressed with - extremely sturdy and quite happily have 4 adults (2 on each bench) with no bother.

Table, legs are sturdy enough and would not collapse, and the adjustable height is good (although you need strong fingers to push the metal bobbles in). The slatted table top is not as strong as I would have liked. The slats are held together by elastic (god knows what happens if that gets cut or breaks) and to fold down the top, you pull apart the outer two slats - and this is very easy to do. So easy that I did it by accident a couple of times. I think to use it with the kids we'd maybe have to put an additional board over the top or somehow run a strap round the table top to prevent the out slatts being 'pinged' - could be disastrous if there were food or drink on the table. It could 'pop' out with a child leaning its elbows on the edge slat.

Jury still out on it yet as I've not used it in earnest - apart from the table top, I'm very impressed and I'm sure my engineer hubby will design something for the top which will make it an extremely good camping table.

We have got one as pictured by Lequimper, yes it is sturdy and we are pleased with it.  Weighs a ton, so moving it about  is a chore.
