do the legs lock in up rite position?

yes. That is, there is no lock but the mechanism prevents the table from folding until you fold it.

No, they do not lock. However, I've not experienced slippage or collapse. As best as I can describe it, the legs "scissors." One end of the "scissors" is attached securely to the bottom of the shelf. The other side of the "scissors" is ~1" [finished] dowel rod. This dowel rod slides left--&gt;right (or maybe right--&gt;left depending on your perspective). There are two 1"x2" blocks attached to the underside of the table, and then attached to the two blocks is a strip/slat made of what appears to be standard military/industrial grade Aluminum (~97% Al with some magnesium and chromium for tensile strength). This strip/slat about 1/2" in width by 1/8" in thickness. The dowel rod for the "scissors" travels from block-to-block secured by the metal slat. It is possible to pick up the table and move ir, while simultaneously having your fingers on the dowel to ensure that the legs do not collapse while moving, or when you rest the table again on the floor (or other hard surface). I've never had a problem with it.

No, the legs do not lock. And this can be a problem because it makes the table difficult to move if there are things on it. This is because when you lift the table by it's edges, the legs collapse and you will need at least one free hand to reposition the legs before you can set the table down. For this reason, if you want to move the table (other than scooting it a couple of inches), you'll need to remove everything first.

No, they do not. The table is sturdy and user-friendly - it's heavy; so, work with caution. I caught my fingers while closing it one time. It got my attention, but it didn't break skin. I have been very happy with this purchase. With its weight, it doesn't really need a locking mechanism.

No, the legs do not lock. The top folds down for storage, but the legs can swing out if you are not careful. Also, the dimensions are 26 ins tall and 18 x 24 inches on top for another shopper...I finally found my tape measure!!!

It' a fold up tray just like the typical standard TV tray - no locking mechanism but it doesn't need it. It's just a nice oversized heavy duty TV tray. I use it for my 21 inch IMac with plenty of room to spare.

yes it i does. i chose not to use them, the legs are also adjustable for height. i must admit this was a little challenging to put together, but i do not regret buying it.

No, the legs do not lock and this has caused a couple of spills. Overall this is a good product but the screws holding the legs keep coming loose and have actually fallen out. This is a flaw in a generally good product.

No they don't, but the legs do stick out far enough so they don't collapse back in, and they are a little stiff.

It's been awhile since I put it together but I think I turned it upside down before the top was put onto the frame. The legs go in the position and you push each one outward. They should lock in place in the right position. I noticed mine were the same as you describe but I messed with one leg until it locked into place...then, the other one.

no, it does not. You are free to go up and down moving your arms but you cannot lock it in any position

They do not lock, but they stay in place. I have picked up the stand several with the violin secured times already without a problem.

No they don't lock and they open up all the way which is at a slant on each end instead of straight up and down which makes it more stable I think.

From my experience no, as if you have to adjust them (the arms) typically you may need to tighten down the screws a bit more after moving them so they do not move or fall. The product works very well, though I would say in a fixed position that you initially set up. I occasionally move them, but not often.

It does not lock into position and is only balanced by the weights. I took another look at it and you may be able to rig something up to lock it but "out of the box" so to speak it does not lock.

Yes, the legs are 5 position. They will fold back, mid rearward, straight down, mid forward, straight foward

No, the top does not lock, but it is takes a little bit of effort to lower it, so it is quite sturdy while in the raised position.

Yes, the legs are very sturdy and stable. The legs can be locked in the down position by rotating a metal tab on one of the legs, which attaches the legs to each other. When latched together, the legs do not move at all. Also, the legs click into the up position, so they don't rattle in either the up or down position - and the other moving parts (upper and lower adjustable vent openings) have a snug friction fit, so nothing rattles. You will like it!

The legs don't lock but they angle outwardly enough to prevent an accidental collapse. If it's straddling your lap it's not going anywhere!

No -- It does not lock into place. However, when you put your foot on it it does not rock back and forth. It has big enough surface that it is stable. I hope this helps. I am a petite woman and I really like mine. I should add that it may not be stable for others who weigh more than I do.

The legs stay in place unless you put pressure on them to move them so there is no problem with the legs collapsing.

no, it does not lock in place. it is pretty stable/stays in place if you don't bump it.
