Our Analysis & Ratings
The Berger Ivalo 2 is a camping table designed for outdoor and indoor use, offering a sturdy and adjustable surface for dining, cooking, or general use. With an aluminium frame and a weather-resistant MDF top, it promises durability and stability on uneven ground. Measuring 115x70cm when unfolded and collapsing to a slim 15x70x5cm when folded, it balances portability with functionality. While its weight is as a drawback, it’s stable, ease of setup and versatile for camping, balconies and picnics.
Performance - The Ivalo 2 has great stability, a key factor for outdoor tables. It can stay firmly planted even on uneven terrain, thanks to its individually adjustable legs. The table supports up to 30kg, making it suitable for meal prep, dining, or even as a temporary work surface. Make sure to store it well after use as the MDF top may bubble after prolonged outdoor exposure, but overall, it holds up well under normal camping conditions. The height adjustability (55–76cm) is a major plus, allowing you to change it for different seating arrangements.
Construction - Built with an aluminium frame and an MDF tabletop, the Ivalo 2 us both sturdy and practical. The aluminium legs provide solid support without adding excessive weight, while the MDF surface is heat-resistant and easy to clean. Being MDF, though, the tabletop is somewhat scratch-prone, so make sure you take care when cutting or sliding objects on it. The folding mechanism is smooth and secure, with no loose screws to worry about, so setup and pack down is pretty hassle-free.
Features - Key features include full leg adjustability, a circular base for added stability and a compact foldable design. The table’s rectangular shape (115x70cm) gives you plenty of space for four people, making it a table that works for group camping trips. Unlike some cheaper tables, this table doesn’t wobble and the legs can even be pegged down in windy conditions. One minor drawback is the lack of a storage bag, which would make transport and protection easier.
Portability - Weighing 9.6kg, the Ivalo 2 is definitely on the heavier side for a camping table, which may put off some people, particularly solo campers or those with limited storage space. It’s pretty slim, though (just 5 cm thick), making it easy to slide into a camper van or garage. While not the lightest option available, its robustness justifies the extra weight for those who want something long-lasting and stable.
Versatility - The Berger Ivalo 2 can function as a dining table, kitchen prep station, or even an indoor extension table. Its weather-resistant construction makes it great for balconies, gardens, and patios (making sure you look after it), while the height adjustability gives you a level surface on rough terrain. You could even modify the legs for extra height, proving its flexibility for different needs.
Overall - The Berger Ivalo 2 is a reliable, well-built camping table that’s main draws are its stability and adjustability. While its weight may be a drawback for some, it’s sturdy, easy to use and versatile.
