Table Overbed Table I need to know what this is called! its a table that goes over your bed!?
its like an overbed desk but not so hospital looking. its like a table that would look somthing like this.... http://www.cpando.co.uk/catalogue/prod.php?prod=65 and stradle the bed so you could do paperwork on it. i have no idea what it would be called. an old friend had one and i recently have a need for it. please help!
I know just what you mean, but searching for it is rough.
I would recommend you try medical suppliers and furniture stores: they should know their catalogs and contacts much better.
What I discovered was called simply a bedside desk, but to find it was only as a subcategory to
ward furniture (a sub), to hospital or institution furniture.

Overbed table installation- Chen Kuang
Where can I find a table like this?
I'm looking for a table like the ones they use in hospitals, the overbed tables but roll onto the bed from the side but im looking for a nice normal one not a hospital one. I saw one in ikea many years ago that rolls over your bed instead of the side but I cant find it anymore. I just want a normal overbed table.
By normal I mean one that doesn't look like its from the hospital or looks like one for old people. Just a normal table looking one
preferably like the one on here near the bottom
I have never seen a table like you are describing. You might find one at a medical supply store, but then it would look like a hospital table. You say that's not the look you want.
You didn't say it you needed a table for a full bed or a twin. You could always add rollers to the legs of a table, but the problem would be that it would have to be the right height to slide over the bed, from the foot. If you had a foot board on the bed, it might not work.
I have seen those bed tray-tables that set up on legs and fit over the laps of the person who is sitting up in bed. They would be easy enough to find on the internet. Plus, they would be a lot less bulky to deal with than a conventional table that you would probably have to modify in order to use as you've described.
The table-trays can be used for meals or to place a laptop on. Some are quite big, I think.
Something like that may be your best bet. Google in "bed table-tray"
"bed tray" or "laptop tray" and see what you can find.
