By Robert C. Bolte


Picnic tables are seen at open areas like parks, gardens or lake sides where people often go with friends or family to have fun or dine together. Earlier, most of these tables were made of wood or stone but, tables made of plastic, steel, iron or aluminum are also increasingly used.

On weekends or any other holidays, people often go out on a picnic to open areas like parks or gardens. People go on a picnic to have fun with family or friends. They may spend their time eating, playing or chatting around a picnic table.

Apart from picnic spots, these tables are also found at other places like cafeterias in offices or schools.

Before you buy any furniture such as picnic tables, there are some things you should consider. The first thing you should take into account is the durability.
