How heavy is the table with all of it's loaded accessories?
If it's too heavy to move, that would be a feature, not a bug.
I have a patent pending butterfly press and portable universal gym that you can fit into a duffel bag. Not heavy, compact, and all you need is a regular chair. Looking for manufacturers or venture capitalists interested in this idea. You can look at it at:

Great concept and if you view the remaining pictures you will note that it does not require moving to set up. I see it also comes in different colors. Great idea for those with small spaces.
