I currently use a full sized collapsable ping pong table because it creates a 8x5 table space. Which means with a 6x4 mat in the middle we have 6 inches along each long edge and 1 foot on each short edge to place books, dice, dead models, and other materials. I would love to see a table of similar design. It's much better when the one table can support all the game materials.
These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

Subject: Re:6'x4' Gaming Table: folding and portable
Damn, just short of perfect. Still alright, I guess (though that's a lot of excess space).
I wonder if there's a market for portable 4'x4' tables?
Personally, I'd love to find a foldable 3'x4' (going down to 1.5'x4' when folded). Two of something like that would solve all my convenient gaming table needs.

Why would you want the table to be the exact size of the battle mat? Again,where do you put your books? dice? dead models? Having some extra space on the edges is the best.

Portability.
The two 4'x4' solution would work well for extra space on the ends, but granted the 3'x4' might work better as a 3'x4½' or even 3'x5' (3' being the optimal width for me so I can fold it down to just a foot and a half).

you can check some comments from one owner of the table under this video in comments:
also you can check the video review by Ash Barker - Guerrilla Miniature Games here
to be honest people are very happy with this table in general. it can be folded into small carry case, you can take it with your car or just put it under the bed

If so how is it holding up for you?
I have one along with a couple of the mats and it's been pretty great for me. Packs away neatly. My only gripe was the price, but considering how much use I will get out of it, I'm not that worried. The mats sit on it well, and the 1mm lip around the sections of the table means you have a pretty level surface for them to sit on.
You don't need to keep adding the same huge images or videos when bumping a thread*, by the way, we can already see them.
*Usually also regarded as poor form on forums.

I would like to see 8x5 size in the future, perhaps with cup holders, or a bottom layer to store terrain as well.
It might be a lot easier to go for a portable 6x4 table with a couple of portable side-tables, maybe 2x2 to hold everything else. 8x5' becomes a nightmare for transport because even 4 sections it's still 5x2' and any more hinges/folds will make it a nightmare.
I'd love to see a table that's 6x4' with an extra 1" lip around it, but I appreciate that hurts the portability.
