I have one of those tables, except I bought mine years ago, and the slats are wood, no vinyl covering.  I love it.

there are also fabric roll up tables, and people I know with them have been quite happy with them.  Why would anyone want a table that is tied to the jack point for use?  well, to each his own.  mcneely
