I want to do food prep, roll pie dough, etc. Can the table be used for this.?

This is not the table for you. The picture don't give true picture of what you are buying.

It should be sturdy enough, one of the folding sides is the right size for a pie

I'd say no - it's really the equivalent of two TV trays attached to one another and not counter height.

The table height is low. I' m 5'4" and I would have to sit. Besides that,the surface is rough. It would require an oilcloth tablecloth for food prep especially pie dough.

No this wouldn't be good for that...more like a end table...love it for my camper to eat on

Yes, fine sanded the table and used their oil and this table can be used for all this prep work.

I think any fairly air tight container would work. One nice thing about these is the height allows me to mix and store in the same container. If it was much smaller, this wouldn't work and I'd have to dirty up two things to make dough.

I don't know why not, but I've never tried it that way. I wanted something that I didn't have to use as a table top yet didn't have to bend over for either. This is ideal, and I'm VERY satisfied with it.

I think you can, if you don't put too much on it. The table can only holdso much on it. That will be yours to put on it what you want.

You can knead bread on this certainly or make pizza on it. But if you are making pizza on it and kneading pizza dough on it it will be getting covered with flour and bits of dough will stick to it and you do not want that. It needs to be clean and smooth and oiled.

I think you would be better off to buy one that holds 2 pies - it might stack but would be awkward because they are hard plastic and have a handle for carrying so I don't think it would work

I always use a special roll out sheet to do pie dough which I roll out on my counter top which is formica, so I am sure you could do the same on your table top as well. We have received so many compliments on our table & we are very pleased with our table & our chairs. Have not used the table for anything except to dine on.

it works GREAT for making pie crust, pizza dough,biscuts,pasta dough, but i would not suggest using it for bread dough. i would use a kitchen aid mixer with a bread hook, or a bread maker.

This is no wider than 4", it could do pie dough and you would have to pinch the pieces together. And for casseroles, small ones yes, and I would recommend the same principle as the pie dough.

I have the earlier incarnation, also plastic, and still alive and well after a few decades. It works very well for pastry dough- pie crusts and tart shells. Cookie and bread dough- I doubt it. You might very well damage it using it for something that heavy.

I haven't tried to put pie dough through it. But if you are wanting to roll it out so to speak I guess you could. The results would not be round like a pie though.

Provided that the surface is strong enough, yes. It is rather large so I would perhaps measure out the dimensions to make sure you like the look of it. But it doesn't seem to run hot or anything that would be of concern for setting on a table.

Yes. But not much room for platters or serving dishes. We love this table. Very sturdy.

Salsa, soup, and green drinks should not be a problem. Nut butter would be a challenge without adding a lot of oil to smooth out the mixture and working in small batches. A food processor would probably be a better choice. I have not tried to make dough, but it doesn't seem realistic. The blades would not be an appropriate tool. A stand mixer with a dough attachment would be a better choice.

When you use a floured pastry board you can roll thinner and make better cookies, pie dough, pizza or lefse. Love mine.

Yes you can. Just make sure you do not over fill. I use mine to make anything "bready".

It's a stainless steel surface, so I assume you can cut on it. Not sure how stable the surface would be since it sits freely on top of the four legs and even with the locks on the wheels (which are optional) it wiggles a bit. I don't use my cart for food prep. I use it to store my microwave, which sits on the stainless top surface, and blender/food processor on the bottom. Maybe you should ask another reviewer who uses it for food prep.
