Abstract

A table foldable between an open and a flat position is disclosed. The table includes a table top, a modesty panel, and legs. The legs are hinged to the modesty panel so as to fold flat relative thereto. The tabletop is connected to the modesty panel by a top hinge having a pivot point offset from the modesty panel so that the tabletop can fold into a flat position over the legs when the legs are in their flat position. A lock is provided to lock the tabletop in its flat position.
