Training & Flip-Top Tables — Expert Answer

Are 18-inch-deep flip-top training tables too narrow for practical use?

An 18-inch deep flip-top training table is workable for note-taking with a notepad or a tablet, but it's tight for a laptop — especially if the participant also has a notepad, phone, and drink on the surface. 18-inch tables are best for high-density lecture-style settings where participants primarily take notes with minimal spread. For laptop-intensive training, 24 inches is the practical minimum, and 30 inches is comfortable. The 18-inch depth does nest very compactly, which is advantageous for storage. Some organizations use 18-inch tables for the very reason that they store in less wall space. If your training involves any significant computer work, move up to 24-inch depth.
