What type of an outdoor table is this
Here you have a fully folding design so when packed this table measures only 26.5 x 5.5 x 4.5 inches (67 x 14 x 11 cm), see the picture below. Note that all the elements are permanently pre-attached to each other, so you can never lose a part and there is nothing to guess when you want to make it ready. You will see in the video below how this is done.
What about this number 51895 in the name? This is to distinguish it from some other models from this brand. So make sure that you are looking for the given number.
Bamboo hardtop
The hardtop is one of its best features, so this is natural bamboo, and the structure is the accordion-type. This is why it can be folded so nicely. The slats are 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) thick.
The size is 25.5 x 19.75 inches (65 x 50 cm). This should be perfectly enough for two people in the camp.
Adjustable telescopic legs
This is yet another great feature here. The length can be changed from 18 inches (46 cm) to 25.5 inches (65 cm). In the first case you can use it as a side table. The other setup is quite enough for a dining table.
But there is also a fine-tuning with the feet and this is what I like a lot. You will always need this outdoor, the ground is rarely flat. I have included this table in my list of best camping tables with adjustable legs.
The frame and the legs are a lightweight aluminum, the structure is robust and its declared weight capacity is 85 pounds (39 kg). You will never need more.
So who is for
The packed size shown above and the weight of 9 lb (4.1 kg) are such that you could transport this table even on a motorbike. But I see it as a camping item for places with a car access.
Size-wise, it is great for two people, or maximum 3. It is a bit low for a true dining table, but this should be fine if your camping chairs are not too high.
If you use it in a floored family camping tent, bear in mind that its adjustable levering knobs are a bit narrow. So it is best to add some extra material underneath it. Pieces of cardboard should do the job.

The price & rating
This table is on the US market with the price shown below, and this is a great price for such a bamboo table. It is considerably more affordable than some of its competitors, you will see two of them in the comparison table below. Note that on the EU market it is far more expensive, you will have to pay twice this amount.

Camco 51895 Bamboo Folding Table vs Competitors
When you see the parameters of a few of such tables side by side, you can better understand their features. So here I give two of them, together with the Camco table, all with bamboo top and with adjustable legs.
As you see it is lighter and it packs better than the other two tables, but it is also smaller. Note that the Atepa Table can have any legs length in certain adjustability length, you will see this if you follow the link. The same holds for the KingCamp Table. But the Camco table is far more affordable than the other two tables.

Final thoughts
So this Camco 51895 Bamboo Folding Table with aluminum legs comes with a great price/features combination. Its adjustable legs, the pleasant bamboo top, and its carry bag are not unique features, but you will pay less for all this as compared with some of its competitors.
