I can't even begin to imagine trying to use the Eileen Gray table as a TV tray. I have one, and believe me, you don't want to be slapping down a bowl of popcorn and a glass of wine on it.

I have been looking for TV tray tables that fit my style... something modern but foldable. The issue with the tables above (while they are all nice tables and I'm familiar with them all) is that you can't fold them away when you are done. I would love something that is plexiglass/lucite/acrylic.

(I think I need to post one of those help post thingies on this site for recommendations)

I've seen some clear lucite/acrylic folding tv trays on ebay - just this weekend.

CB2 used to have some awesome, super cheap but cute TV tables in bright colors - about $14. not sure if they still have them, but it would be worth a keyword search on eBay.

that jupiter hotel looks amazing, but in this day of bedbug paranoia that I picked up on this site, those pillows would give me the willies! All I could think about would be someone propping up their bare feet on them or something worse. Then again, I have seen that blacklight hotel 20/20 episode too many times!
