Quick answer
Choose the Compact Camp Table 25™ if you need more prep space for cooking or family meals; choose the Compact Camp Table 20™ for a lighter, more compact side table that’s easier to pack.
Size matters more than you think
The main difference between the two tables is the top surface area. The Compact Camp Table 25™ offers a larger workspace, which is handy when you’re prepping food, holding a camp stove, or serving several plates. The Compact Camp Table 20™ is smaller and lighter, making it a better fit for tight campsites or as a secondary table beside your chair.
Think about how you’ll actually use the table. If you’re cooking or need a stable surface for multiple items, the extra width of the 25-inch model can be a real advantage. If you’re mostly using it for a drink, a book, or a small stove, the 20-inch version may be all you need.
Weight and portability trade-offs
Both tables are designed to be portable, but the smaller 20-inch model is naturally lighter and takes up less space in your trunk or backpack. If you hike to your campsite or pack tight, that difference can matter. The 25-inch model is still lightweight, but it’s a bit bulkier and better suited for car camping or tailgating.
There’s no wrong choice—just a trade-off between workspace and portability. If you’re unsure, consider how far you’ll carry it and how much gear you typically set up.
How to choose the right size
- If you cook or prep meals outdoors: Choose the Compact Camp Table 25™ for the extra surface area to hold a stove, cutting board, and ingredients. Measure your largest cooking item to ensure it fits on the tabletop.
- If you need a side table or extra surface: The Compact Camp Table 20™ is easier to pack and fits better in tight spaces, yet still supports up to 60 lbs. Check your vehicle or backpack space to see which size fits more easily.
- If you prioritize portability: Go with the Compact Camp Table 20™—it’s lighter and more compact, making it a better companion for hiking or minimal setups. Weigh both tables to see if the difference matters for your carrying style.
