Any of you have one of these? Like it? Hate it? Even though the plastic table I had was perfect and sturdy I’d rather not go that route again. Lookin for something a little more woodish and steelish.

What do you think? Ideas? What do you use?

Jon,

I would go with the Jerker tables. For $40 more you have more refined yet homely units, if that makes sense, and just as sturdy (I assume). Everything my family has bought from IKEA has been durable and well-designed. I’d be sure that the height is comfortable, but if it’s the same as what you had before then no worries. I do not have anything special as I don’t have my own space for LEGO stuff (outside of the basement and there’s no table surfaces down there, so I can’t comment on an item). I have actually given thought to this more than once and would like to know what works out for you. Also, I would say that the attachable fixtures are another plus for the IKEA stuff.

Another idea might be to check out what types of table-top bookshelves/cases they have and if any are compatible with the Jerkers or other models at IKEA. You might find something that fits nicely between any windows along that wall.

I used to use one of those white molded plastic folding tables that you can get at Sam's (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jun-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.storage, FTX)
