King Kongâs Picnic Table
I needed a picnic table that would last on our campsite rental lot. Renters can be tough on equipment and the cheap picnic tables wouldnât last. This kit is a beast. It is very heavy duty. I purchased 2 twelve foot long 2×10âs. I also purchased one 8 foot 2×10. I had HD cut the boards to 6 feet long. It would have been easier if Pilot Rock included instructions. Instead , I had to go by the photos on Amazons website. It was trial and error figuring out how it all went together. I laid my boards down on makeshift supports. The legs should be 59 inches apart. Donât tighten until all put together. I did tighten the brace some that the lag bolt goes through. This helped hold up the legs until I could position them. I took measurements to center the legs on all sides. I then screwed in the lag bolt tightly. This holds the legs in position until you can get the holes drilled. This is a very nice table. Donât settle for the big box store cheap models.

Great deal IMO
We had a ball, myself, my son and my 5 year old grandson putting this together. This is a kit and you need to add 5 2×10’s, 8 footers obviously if you want an 8 foot table. We used pressure treated lumber, and when we were done we sanded it down and stained it. The result was a very good looking, and extremely rugged and durable table that will not tip over. One reason we wanted this kit is because my son is thinking about moving, and this could be disassembled and moved with him if he wants to by removing a few bolts. My grandson was a riot tightening all the nuts with his father’s ratchet…he felt like a real hot shot. The only drawback I can think of for some may be the weight of the finished product. It is heavy.

Excellent Product
Can’t beat the fabrication quality on this kit, everything fits together well and is rock solid sturdy, only reason it didn’t get 5 stars is I was short 3 nuts, had to go to the hardware store to finish the build

durable
I have a prior table which now must be 30 years old. Replaced the wood five years ago. Frame is still going strong. It may appear expensive but lasts forever. A little awkward handling the boards by yourself. I made a six foot table which took three 2x10x12 footers cut in half. Lowes or the Depot will do that. Hard part is finding decent boards in pressure treated. Trying to flip them by yourself to check them out is a task. I rounded all the corners and routed the edges with a 3/8 or 1/2 round over bit.If you do not receive instructions just call the toll freee line and they’ll be emailed in minutes. Worthwhile purchase, PS the bolts holding the struts in place could be a little longer. You might get a thread or two to catch the nut, Far easier to buy two five inch hex nuts.

Heavy duty, will last a lifetime.
This is a heavy duty leg set that will last a long time, however the set I received had the holes for the leg drilled off center making the bracket for the seat crooked. Holes are off 30 or 40 degrees from straight. Bought it for a present but didn’t try to put it together until the snow melted. Reseller on Amazon would not make it right because it is out of the 30 day return window. Contacted the manufacturer directly and they covered the defect under warranty and sent replacement parts. Planning on buying another set for myself. Glad to see a US company making a quality product and standing behind it.

Heavy Duty High Quality
There is really nothing to dislike about this product. It is extremely well made and extra heavy duty. This table will outlive me. I supplied my own 2’X10′ pressure-treated lumber. I did assemble it alone and that task was really made simple by using my landscape trailer and assembling the table upside down. Once assembly was complete I towed the trailer to the designated place in my yard slid it to the end and rolled it over and off. Super easy. The total assembly time was 3.5 hours. I am extremely satisfied with this “beast” of a table. 🙂
