You did it. You got outside, hit the trails, climbed to the peak, and now it’s time for some well-deserved rest. There’s just one problem: Now that you’ve found a spot to enjoy the vistas, there’s not a level surface in sight.

But instead of precariously balancing your water bottle (or beer), snacks and whatever else on the rocky terrain, you came prepared. You pull your Serotonin Outdoors Pocket Mini Table from your pocket and suddenly all is right with the world.

Table your frustrations

The beauty of the Serotonin Outdoors Pocket Mini Table is in its simplicity. It’s made from durable and extremely lightweight aluminum and has a folding design that’s as intuitive as folding furniture gets.

To set it up, you just open the halves, fold out the legs and set it down. Yep, that’s it. To put it away again, you just reverse the process. It genuinely could not be easier.

Best of all, when it’s folded up, it actually has a magnetic clasp and bit of storage on the inside — enough to stash away an EDC knife or multi-tool, slim power bank, pocket notebook and pen or whatever else.

Could it be any smaller?

As our title suggests, this table folds down to about the same size as an iPhone — the iPhone 16 Pro Max, specifically. That means it fits into most pant and short pockets without much effort or crowding.

If you’re looking for exact specs, however, it folds down to 15cm by 8cm (roughly 6in by 3in) and has a depth of only 1.5cm (about 0.6in). However, it’s far more lightweight than an iPhone, weighing in at only 137g (that’s under 5oz).

Admittedly, it’s not the largest surface when unfolded, only doubling the surface area of an iPhone. However, that’s more than enough room to support a couple of cans of beer, coffee mugs or even Nalgene bottles.

Since it’s so tiny and lightweight (truly, it’s practically negligible), it’s easy to stash alongside all your other hiking and camping gear. When stable surfaces are in short supply, you’ll be happy to have it.

Already fully-funded

The Serotonin Outdoors Pocket Mini Table is being crowdfunded via Kickstarter, with an entry price of just $30. The good news is, it’s already fully-funded, meaning the project is a success and will go into production.

The other good news is that the brand has already outlined its expected production timeline, noting that backer tables should ship out no later than April, 2025. That means you won’t have to wait very long to get yours — and it’ll be the perfect season to try it out.
