Inexpensive Side Table Solution (1 Viewer)

Bringing this over from another thread

I picked up a Costco Barrington table about a month ago. Really is a great value. I installed the deeper stainless couple holders for about $25.

Hosted a game last week and easily fit 8 people. Will have no problem squeezing 10 people for monday night football this week but decided to add some side tables last minute to give us more space at the table. Not the best quality but was available 2 day delivery from amazon prime (link) and easy to assemble. $19.16 for the table on sale now. Assembled table and installed 2 cups holders in less than 10 minutes. Stainless cup holders 10 for $24.69 (amazon). All in for for about $24 a side table. Like I said, not a gorilla side table but its fine and for $24 its a great value and delivered in 2 days.

I just grabbed the link from amazon and noticed these (link) were on sale for $24.02. Stainless upgrade. I'm going to try a couple of those for less than $5 upgrade charge.

The stainless tube version delivered today and I was able to drill holes and assemble in under 10 minutes. I have to weigh them but the stainless tube version feels a bit heavier. Here is a pic of them side by side.

Adding to say, the side tables have always been a classy look. Keeps the table clear and uncluttered for the game!

Thank you. 10 players on this table is going to be extremely tight so side tables help tremendously.

Worked like a charm. Like I said not the best quality but for a side table but perfectly acceptable for $25 - $30

Does it seem at all tippy?

not unstable in the least... stainless version feels a little more stable and seems a bit heavier but that could be my imagination. had 10 players and both tables had both cup holders occupied and food etc on top. the wheels lock too. players actually noticed and commented on the upgrade.

There was some feedback and a video review showing that they tip easy but the guy did not install the front wheels. You gotta take some reviews with a grain of salt.
