This is NOT a wobbly card table. It is a strong table. It is like a strong fold up picnic table. Because it folds, each section is a reinforced moulded square, and is is much sturdier than a single length folding picnic table. I was hesitant about buying one before, as I was thinking wobbly, but it is not. John M.
