A folding sectional table assembly includes a pair of table sections, each of which includes a frame assembly and a table top. Each frame assembly includes inner and outer leg assemblies, and each leg assembly has an upper tubular member pivotably mounted at its ends relative to a pair of apron members secured to the underside of the table top, for providing pivoting movement of the leg assembly relative to the table top. A latch arrangement selectively maintains the table sections in the folded, storage position, and includes a latch member pivotably mounted to one of the table sections and a catch member stationarily mounted to the other of the table sections. A latch actuator is interconnected between the latch member and the apron members, for disengaging the latch member from the catch member when it is desired to move the table sections away from the folded, storage position. The latch actuator includes an actuator area located adjacent each side of the table assembly, for enabling an operator to easily access the actuator member for disengaging the latch member without having to reach between the table sections when in the folded, storage position.
