Our Review
I like these wooden camping tables. They look very smart.
The bamboo looks good and is durable too.
Yes, plastic can be cheaper, lighter, and more practical. But you must admit, these tables look very smart.
And since the wood is made from Bamboo, it's hardwearing, good with water, and eco-friendly.
Unfortunately, a family-sized wooden table could take up a lot of space in your car when you head off to the campsite. This Trekker XL table from Robens is just the ticket: it packs down small, is lightweight, and isn't a bad size when set-up.
Let's look at the details...
Trekker XL Pack Size
This is a small lightweight pack size for a wooden table for four
When packed, the size is 100 cm long and 15 cm x 12 cm deep.
It only weighs around 6.5 kilos, so not a heavy item to lift to and from your car.
Setting up the Table
When you first open the pack, you'll see a sprawling tangle of legs. Don't let this put you off. It's really simple to put up.
Lightweight metal poles simply slot together to make up the legs.
The legs slot together
Once you have the legs together, some top supports simply clip on. This is where the wooden bamboo tabletop clips on.
The table top of the Trekker XL slots in place on the frame
Using the Robens Trekker XL Table
Once set-up, the Robens Trekker XL is a good size table and measures 60 cm wide and 100 cm long (with a height of 68 cm).
OK, so it's not the biggest of family tables, but it is big enough for four people.
We've found the best layout is a chair at either end of the table and one at each side.
This table could seat four, depending on how big your chairs are
Verdict
I really like this table, which is why I wanted to review it and test it out.
If storing and taking your camping equipment to the campsite is becoming an issue, this is worth investing in.
It gets the thumbs-up from us!
