I think that this item could use a banana for scale... The mug helps, but doesn't do it justice.

I know, I was just trying to have some fun too this morning :)
I think the MSR Groundhog stake really best shows the size of the table.

MathGuyThe scallops on the long edges are ruler-spaced in cm and inch if that helps at all.

Man, now I feel like I need to defend my statement below for fear of being labled a complainer. I really meant "It is a shame that if someone only checked the Outdoors site and not the Ultralight site that they would miss out on this drop." I think it should be cross posted where more people might buy it.

I would love it if these forums were restricted to discussion of the item for sale from those who have used it or have questions about it. Please go elsewhere for an opportunity to insult others whom you don't even know, based on your ASSumptions.

AmyreeleybakerBest comment yet. Thanks Amy.
AmyreeleybakerI couldn't agree more, the discussion downward spiral is quite saddening. While I used to truly enjoy the freedom Massdrop gave it's communities... it's grown to the point I'm actually going to ask for MORE moderation of these discussions. I'm fine with leaving the Talk sections a little more "wild west" but the ridiculousness that is this and other discussion threads on mass drop need "chlorine".

An elegant design. However, Cascade Wild table http://cascadewild.com/ is larger, lighter, and less expensive.

ClamGun Came here to say the same thing! Not much of a deal on this Suluk when it's twice the weight and almost 4x the price of a CW table...

I agree with the sentiments here that "Ultralight" should be changed to "Backpacking," if just to quiet the constant debate over what is and isn't Ultralight.
I, for one, think this is a cool product. Would I take it on a long backpacking trip? No, likely not. A 1-2 nighter? Sure. Also, when I go camping, I like to picnic away from the campground. The less weight I have to carry, for any distance, the better. This would have been useful last weekend to me...

CardamomteaThanks for the balanced consideration of this product. I feel like a lot of people came out against this because it's not necessary. But like you said, this may not be needed but it could be useful and could still fit within an ultralighters pack on a weekend trip.
As for UL vs BP, we started the Outdoors Community earlier this year and the heavier products that we had tested out for sales in UL have since moved over to Outdoors. All UL members were auto-subscribed to get Outdoors drops in their emails too, so that may lead some people to confuse what products are in what community. The community is listed on the top left of each drop page, and there can be multiple communities listed as a product could interest members across a broad range of activities. Hope this helps and thanks for the post!

Really great to see this little table here on Massdrop. I commissioned Suluk46 to bring this table to market. These type of small tables are crazy popular in Japan and other countries, not so much here in the USA/North America, which is one of the reasons why I worked with Suluk46 to introduce it.
Not everything about backpacking has to be 'only what you need'. Sometimes, hiking can be just as much fun when hanging around a campsite, sitting besides a campfire, with friends. This is one of those products that falls into the category of having a neat and unique piece of gear with you to do a simple task, that yes, could be done on a flat rock, but that would still give a person looking for, or even wanting, that atmosphere of having a bit of home with them out on the trail. If you want to call it yuppie hiking, by all means, but there is a market for that, and, a very big market for that.
In regards to how much weight it can hold, a surprising amount. It can support, at least, a 2L pot + canister stove without any issue at all. What you will not want to do is put a stove (such as esbit or heet) under the table with your pot on top of the table. This material is just not going to handle that. We (suluk46 and myself) have been playing around with a design to do that, but so far the designs have just not proven viable. Maybe some day.
Attached is an image of my personal table, to give everybody an idea of the size and cutting surface area. The knife is a Kestrel and the bar is a single Greenbelly Bar. The table is sitting on top of a fallen Redwood tree.

Good thing no one is forcing you to buy it. I can only imagine the whining.

Ok, we can argue about why this isn't Ultralight, but seriously, why isn't this cross-posted on Outdoors?
