Greater than one weekI got this before having back surgery, and its proven to be super useful as Ive spent more time than usual in bed and need access to all sorts of stuff. Its an ugly medical table, but works fine and is sturdy. The legs fit under my bed for when I want the table part over the bed.

> 3 dayI have been a caretaker for both of my parents and used overbed tables regularly with them. Some were downright pains to use so I knew I wanted something simple, sturdy, and easy to operate when I became ill a while ago and needed one. I tried to make do with TV trays but it became obvious that I needed something that I could use while sitting up in bed or even on the couch. A cursory search showed several similar tables and I chose this one because the price was very fair and the reviews were overwhelmingly positive. This table is sturdy yet lightweight and not cumbersome. It took my husband all of 10 minutes to set it up, attaching the metal frame to the table top. I could have done it myself and I am awful at that stuff. The overbed table has a dark woodgrain surface that measures 15 wide by 30 long and is .75 thick. The table has rounded corners for safety which the one I recently used in the hospital did NOT and those edges can be a little bit sharp so I suggest always looking for a table with rounded edges. The table has four castors which swivel and roll easily under a bed, chair or even under some sofas depending on whether there is open space at the bottom. Mine has open space so I can slide this table right under my sofa and use it as a laptop table or eating tray. I can also use the table while sitting in a chair or sitting up on the couch with the tabletop in front of me and my legs on the floor as it is an open design. The castors also lock down so that the table doesnt roll although I rarely need to lock them as the table stays put for me when I use it. There are LOT of ways to use this, not just for in bed patient care. I am actually typing this review with my laptop on the overbed table as I sit up on the couch. The tabletop height is 27.5 at its lowest point and will go all the way up to 39.5. With a slight push of a lever on the side, the table will rise and lower with no set increments meaning you can adjust it to the exact height you want it. It locks securely and I have not ever had the table lower or move once I had it in place. When choosing an overbed table, its important to get one that both the patient and a caretaker can use with ease. I dont need a caretaker at this time (and I hope I wont for a very long time) but, if I did, it would be a breeze for someone to roll the table across the bed and roll it away as well as adjust the height. As the patient I find it very simple to adjust and move myself. The sturdy tabletop can hold a lot - up to 25 pounds according to the manufacturer - but I believe it could hold more although I dont have a need for that. I will often use the table to hold my dinner and a drink, my laptop, or a variety of other things that I want close to me. When I dont want the table in front of me, I simply push it away and it rolls easily even on a carpeted surface. When I recover, I will still use this table as a laptop tray. Its much better than a portable laptop tray and has plenty of room for any size laptop as well as a drink, portable speakers, reference materials, or anything I want close by when working on my notebook. My husband is a welder and I cant tell you the number of times he has called anything I bought that was metal, junk. He looks at the welding beads to see if the item was carefully welded. Guess what? He didnt call this table structure junk! Shocker. He said it looked well made and the beading was not sloppy or even noticeable. Most people would never even think about this but welders tend to be very scrutinizing. What this says to me is that the workmanship is good and care was taken to make the table and I certainly appreciate that. The brushed metal is attractive and the deep color of the wood keeps staining to a bare minimum. I honestly have no complaints. This table does what it is supposed to do and doesnt take up massive amounts of space. Its great for people who are ill or injured and cant get up and sit at a table to eat or otherwise need to have things in front of them or nearby. Its also a great laptop or reading table for anyones bedroom or living room. In the interest of full disclosure, I received this overbed table free of charge from the company after I chose it on my own. The opinions and descriptions above are entirely mine. I have been reviewing products for 16 years and always call it like I see it regardless of how a product was obtained. For $60.00, I feel this table is a steal. I cant really think of anything more I could want. Its smooth as far as rolling and adjusting the tabletop height, it has plenty of space for whatever one may want to use it for, and its well made. I like that Im not locked into certain levels and that I can raise and lower the table to any height I want and it will lock and stay put. I will still get a LOT of use out of this after I recover which I hope will be soon. If youre a caretaker or the patient or even if youre looking for something to use while in bed or in a chair for your laptop or reading, this overbed table does it all. I honestly recommend it to anyone. It has so many uses outside of medical use.
