I love these tables! We had a floating deck built down by the water to accommodate a gazebo, swing, chairs and portable table under the trees as well as expanding the area where kids could be without stubbing toes on protruding roots and crunchy pine cones. The tabletops are large enough for someone to use for beverages and plates  or as a place to safely store glasses, devices, etc. which need to be somewhat protected yet visible. The price was right, the color perfect, and I would recommend and buy again.
