I really liked the size of this table & how easy it folded and easy to store.  I am not sure, but I thought the top would be aluminium as I want to put a small electric BBQ on it to use on my balcony in my apartment.  I am not sure if I am able to do this and wondering if the heat would affect the top of the table. If you know the answer, please advise. I am keeping this table because of the size as it would become handy in entertaining.
