It has a tabletop so that you can keep serving dishes, glasses, and silverware handy while entertaining or relaxing. Moreover, it has casters, two of which can be locked, making it easy to roll.

The snack tables can be stored in individual slots built into the stand when not in use if you flip the tabletop up.
