I shopped less expensive tables extensively before the reviews lead me to buy this one. I don't know how accurate the problem reviews of the cheaper tables are, but I am VERY happy with this one for the following reasons: 1) shipped well packed. The packaging clearly had taken some abuse, yet there was no damage to the table. Despite its size it showed no sign of having ever been dropped - often a problem with such large items as they unavoidably get dropped on their corners such as loosening of hinges or joints. 2) it is EXTREMELY solid. We've put over 300 pounds (2 adults) on it, and it doesn't even WIGGLE. 3) it sets up INSTANTLY, just release two buckles, flip it open, and fan the legs out. Cables control the leg spread perfectly. 4) easily adjustable - the legs have a simple "unscrew and move" height adjustment. 5) the face/headrest is very adjustable. (Its attachment to the table is slightly less than ideal, but only about a 1/4 point deduction worth, and its more than made up for by the built-in velcro for securing the headrest AND CUSHION inside the table. (They thought of EVERYTHING!) 6) speaking of everything: it INCLUDES a great case - quality vinyl (?), with a big strong zipper and good pulls from BOTH ends. It has a carry strap AND side straps. Best part? it has a side pocket big enough for the sheets, and it is generous enough in its main pocket size that you can store a bed heater (purchased separately) in it as well. 7) Excellent quality wood and woodworking. I've done a good bit of wood working (bookcases, end tables, beds, desks, drawers, etc from oak, maple, walnut, etc). I find the fit and finish of the woodworking to be excellent - smooth sanding and finishing, great rounded edges on the plyboard used to connect the legs (and the reason it is so sturdy), and even wood tone on all the pieces. It just looks GREAT. This is an example of how well Amazon reviews have served me. I read a range of reviews from people to get likes and dislikes - and the product I got was exactly what I wanted and value, and a great price. (Amazon (or its automated system) DID make several very irritating/frustrating/funny errors in fulfilling this order. But the table did show up within about 10 days, and the quality of the product more than makes up for my frustration and a missed birthday. The problem? When ordered, this was clearly a Prime item. (My primary reason for shopping at Amazon, right after the reviews and easy return policy). But the table did NOT ship as Prime. When I complained by email (NOT an easy address to find ;)) Amazon CS sent me a VERY polite email including a link to the product so I could see it was not prime and not in stock. BUTthe link they sent took me to a prime product, that reported 2 in stock. Ah, the joys of getting crosswise to an automated system! Thank heavens it wasn't my TAX RETURN!) Order and Enjoy this product!
