A romantic dinner in the woods, a picnic of a cheerful friendly company, fishing or a feast after a successful hunt yet recently did not have a special comfort. Enjoying cooked on an open fire dishes had to lie on a plaid, which was not always convenient. And any rain in a few minutes made the continuation of the picnic impossible. With the advent of a variety of tables and chairs for a picnic in nature, this problem was resolved.
Today, a chair with picnic chairs is the choice of outdoor enthusiasts who prefer maximum comfort. Such mobile furniture is convenient to take with you to nature for those who leave to rest for a long time.
Choosing a tourist table
The main criterion in choosing a table is the number of tourists. For a small company consisting of four people and smaller, a compact folding picnic table is suitable. Its frame is usually made of steel or aluminum profile, and the countertops are made of aluminum alloy or strong fabric. Aluminum tables for a picnic differ in small weight - from two to five kilograms.
If the company is large, then the table should be large. Such models, of course, weigh more (up to seven kilograms), but you do not have to cram. Frameworks are also made of steel or aluminum profiles, and aluminum alloys are used for countertops, because the fabric of such a load can not stand. To facilitate storage and transportation, such a picnic table is folded into a special suitcase. In the trunk, he does not take much space, and the weight makes it easy to carry it in his hands. There are also models of tables-transformers for a picnic, which themselves when folded take the form of a suitcase.
Concerning wooden picnic tables, their disadvantage is weight. The appearance of such models, of course, is more noble than that of aluminum ones, but for tourists who need only the most necessary things on the road, this is not the main thing. In addition, it is more difficult to take care of a wooden table, since a tree does not like moisture, and it is extremely difficult to prevent such situations on a picnic. Lacquer coating is quite unstable to scratches, so sloppy movement of the skewer can damage it.
Most modern models of tables have smoothed corners, preventing accidental injuries. This is very important, if you have a rest with young children. You can also purchase picnic tables with an umbrella, which will be protected from the scorching sun or suddenly started rain, with pockets for glasses, shelves for small items (kitchen utensils, dishes), as well as stands for fixing lighting fixtures that will come in handy if you will stay in nature for the night.
Pay attention to the legs. Finding a perfectly flat surface in the forest is not so easy, so telescopic legs are a very practical feature of the table.
Sets for picnic
Sets of compact furniture for outdoor recreation will save you the need to select chairs so that sitting at the table on them was convenient. Of course, the chairs with the fabric back are more comfortable than the stools made of aluminum or wood. In addition, you will not have to worry about transportation, as many sets are made in such a way that a table with benches or picnic chairs when folded turns into a mini suitcase. Important is the fact that it is more profitable to purchase a kit than to separately select a table and chairs.
Once you've spent money on purchasing such a practical, convenient and indispensable compact furniture kit in nature, you will never change comfort for rugs and blankets.
