Nestable table with slotted table top

A table comprising:

• a base including at least one leg;
• a table top pivoted to the base for movement about a main pivot axis between a horizontal use position and a vertical storage position;
• a pivot mechanism spaced from the main pivot axis for holding the table top in the horizontal use position, the pivot mechanism including a first link pivoted to the table top for rotation about a first axis and including a second link pivoted to the base for rotation about a second axis, one of the first and second links including a bore and the other of the first and second links including a rod slidably engaging the bore, the first and second axis defining a line therebetween, the bore including an end slidably engaging the rod;
• the first and second links being movable so that the end of the bore is moved overcenter on one side of the line when the table top is in the horizontal use position in a locking position which secures the table top in the horizontal use position, but further being movable across the line to an opposite side of the line to a released position where the table top can be moved from the horizontal use position to the vertical storage position.
