Camp tables

TIMBER RIDGE 108 × 71 × 71 cm, 5.4 kg, 100 kg stated vs KESSER roll-top camping table, 120 × 70 cm, legs 57–79 cm

Two tables at the same stated 100 kg — but only one of them tells you what it weighs or how it packs.

By

The same headline claim, 100 kg, on two of the largest tables in this hub. Neither maker says how that figure was established or where the load sits, so the row is a draw on two numbers that are equally unexplained. Underneath, the tables diverge sharply: Timber Ridge publishes 5.4 kg and a folded 104 × 24 × 12.7 cm, while KESSER publishes no weight and no packed size at all — on a table it describes as light to handle and compact when folded.

Each tick belongs to its own line and nothing more. The row of ticks is not a score: the two verdicts underneath settle the page, because these two answer different questions on the trail.

Which one, for whom

Buy the TIMBER RIDGE 108 × 71 × 71 cm, 5.4 kg, 100 kg stated

The one you can plan a car around. 5.4 kg and 104 × 24 × 12.7 cm folded are both published, the top is named as aluminium, and the legs are stated to extend up to 5 cm to sit level on rough ground. It is 12 cm narrower across than the KESSER and fixed at 71 cm high, so it is a dining table rather than a work bench you can drop to bench height.

Buy the KESSER roll-top camping table, 120 × 70 cm, legs 57–79 cm

The bigger surface and the wider height range: 120 × 70 cm, legs adjustable through roughly 57 to 79 cm without steps, and a roll-up top over an oxidised aluminium frame. What it will not tell you is what it weighs or what it folds to, which on a table this size is the one thing a boot cares about. Non-slip feet are stated, with no dimension.

What people ask before buying

What does the 100 kg on both listings mean?

It means both makers printed the same number. Neither says how it was established, over what period, or where on the top the load is applied. A load figure is a statement by the seller, and nothing on this page should be read as advice about what either table will hold.

Why does the KESSER publish no weight?

The listing calls the table light to handle and compact when folded and gives no figure for either. That is why both the weight line and the packed-size line go to the Timber Ridge, which publishes 5.4 kg and a folded size — a known figure beats an unknown one on this site, whatever the real weights turn out to be.

Does either listing say what the top takes?

Only one of the two publishes a top material. Timber Ridge names aluminium and describes it as heat-resistant, waterproof and rustproof; the KESSER listing names aluminium for the frame and describes the top only as roll-up. Take that as the published difference and not as a heat rating, because neither is one.

    TIMBER RIDGE 108 × 71 × 71 cm, 5.4 kg, 100 kg stated

    Aluminium folding camp table · 108 × 71 × 71 cm · folds to 104 × 24 × 12.7 cm · 5.4 kg · 100 kg stated · aluminium top and legs · legs extend up to 5 cm

    The heaviest table in this hub at 5.4 kg, carrying the highest stated load rating here at 100 kg, on an all-aluminium frame that packs long rather than flat.

    Best for: A base camp or a van pitch where a metre of aluminium at dining height earns its 5.4 kg and its 104 cm packed length.

    KESSER roll-top camping table, 120 × 70 cm, legs 57–79 cm

    Roll-top camp table · 120 × 70 cm stated · aluminium frame · legs adjustable 57–79 cm · 100 kg stated · carry bag and under-table net

    The only table in this hub to publish a continuous leg range rather than a set of fixed heights, which is what makes it stand level on ground that is not — and it publishes no weight at all.

    Best for: A pitch that is never level, where the useful figure is how far the legs move rather than how little the table weighs.
