The Homecraft Tilting Overbed Table is a mobile table that slides over a bed, armchair or couch to bring a working surface within reach of someone who is seated or lying down. The base rolls on four 5 cm castors, so the table can be brought into position and moved away again without being lifted. The column adjusts in height from 61 to 91 cm and the top tilts, which means the 61 x 40 cm laminate surface can be set flat for meals and drinks or angled for reading and writing. Small rails around the edge stop items sliding off when the top is inclined. The laminate wipes clean and the table takes a load of up to 10 kg. It is supplied either assembled or flat-packed, and suits home, supported accommodation and aged care settings.

One table covers meals, reading, writing and keeping a phone or a pair of glasses close by, which matters most when getting up to fetch things is the hard part. Height and tilt adjust to the chair or bed rather than the other way round, and because the whole table rolls on castors it can be positioned and cleared away without assistance or heavy lifting.
