[Brian Fetter]

Hi Kathleen,
We made a switch from K/I 6′ rectangle tables to 6′ Lifetime tables, they’re lighter and much more affordable at quantities of 26+. At their low price point, we’ve also taken the mindset that they’re almost disposable tables after a couple of years of use and abuse. They’re a fully molded table top with nearly no texture to the surface making cleaning up paint and other dried on foods a breeze. The only complaint I have with the table surface is it shows the oils from our skin, but with Virex as a cleaning solution it takes those away. I just wish they had 6′ round tables with the black top and sliver legs like our rectangle tables.

Good luck!

Subject: Replacements for Mity Lite

Hi everyone,

We have been loyal Mity Lite customers for 25+ years, but over the past five years my interactions with customer services have gotten so poor that I am looking for other vendors to work with.  I have not had much luck finding a vendor that can provide the same quality at the same price as Mity Lite, specifically when it comes to lightweight folding tables.

What vendors do you recommend?

Hi Brian,

Question, how are the Lifetime tables holding up and what do you use them for? Events, meetings etc…?

Hi Kathleen,

We, too, have been transitioning to the Lifetime tables Brian mentioned. They are much lighter than the Mity-Lite version and have been holding up fairly well for us.

Hi everyone,

We have transitioned to buying tables from Uline. I think these are basically the same as Lifetime tables. They are lighter weight than their Mity Lite counterparts and have held up very well. So far we haven’t purchased any of the rounds and I have some concerns about the weight capacity of their banquet rounds.

Does anyone know if we (ACUI – Procure) have any kind of special pricing or deals set up?? I’m not sure the prices could be much lower but if we don’t have a relationship, maybe we should pursue one?!
