Portable Table In A Bag! (Portable Camping Side Table Review)

Updated: Sep 16, 2022


Don’t let the boring, lazy name put you off when searching for a camping table. This succinctly and boringly named Portable Camping Side Table just may be the right item for your next outing.


Hey, this is Dean from WiseBuysGuys. I’ve tried and have often been disappointed when it comes to camping tables. And this Portable Camping Side Table is one of two that I favor!


Let’s start with an overview! The Portable Camping Side Table is an excellent option for those who enjoy camping and picnicking. This table is easy to set up and take down, making it a great companion to your campsite, allowing me to get to the burger grilling quicker! The table is also lightweight and compact, making it easy to transport from campsite to car.



It’s made from durable materials that can withstand the elements and features a sturdy aluminum frame that can support up to 250 pounds. The table's surface is made from high-density polyethylene, solid, and easy to clean. The table also features a built-in carrying handle that makes it easy to transport.


My experience have been great. For birthdays and holidays, I often receive camping-related items, and tables seem to be top of mind for many shoppers. Mix this table-gifting frequency with my camping gear shopping problem, and you can see why I end up with many tables. I quickly found that I returned to this one. I favor this table, aside from its quick setup and take-down, because it’s useful. While camping, I want compact, easy, sturdy, and functional! As the sun moves across the sky, or campfire smoke shifts direction, or it starts to rain, this table is easy to move around quickly and seems to always provide a stable platform for stuff on uneven terrain.


When I buy or evaluate a product, I often consider others’ reviews to highlight the pros or cons that I may have missed. This particular table seems to amass opposing feelings for the same features. Here are a few other positive and negative thoughts (with my two-cents in parentheses):


  • Some reviewers found the table to be too small (uhmmm, it’s designed to be small)

  • Others felt that the table was not very sturdy (My experience differs)

  • A few reviewers noted that the table was difficult to clean (It’s a camping table and therefore has a different definition of “clean”)

  • Some found the table to be overpriced (The price has increased from last year)

  • A few reviewers noted that the table did not come with assembly instructions (Come on, there are only two pieces)

  • Many reviewers found the table to be just the right size (Concur)

  • Others felt that the table was very sturdy (Concur)

  • A few reviewers noted that the table was easy to clean (Concur)

  • Some found the table to be of great value (Concur)

  • A few reviewers pointed out that the table was easy to assemble. (Yeah, it’s only two pieces)


You can see how opinions vary. I assume this is perspective and use-case, not the product - it’s best to consider your use scenario when judging.


So there you have it, the Portable Camping Side Table! So what are you waiting for? Get yourself a table and a burger.
