or
- Suitable for all puzzles up to 35.5″ x 25.5″ – the size of many 1500-piece jigsaws. This is the largest puzzle case from Jigthings. Please check your puzzle sizes before ordering. If your puzzle does not fit, the only larger product from Jigthings is our Jigboard 2000. Jigsorts provide a luxury, all-in-one solution for carrying, holding, managing, organizing, and storing puzzles.
- The removable puzzle board is solid and covered with a soft baize similar to the finest card tables. The surface is a joy to work on as the baize stops puzzle pieces from sliding around – even when tilted or knocked. The board is light and easily portable.
- A raised edge on the board guarantees no pieces fall off. The purpose-made cover ensures that the part-assembled puzzle is protected from pets, dust, and spillages.
- Four sort trays provide additional working surfaces for assembling small sections of your puzzle or sorting pieces by color or shape.
- When travelling or for storing, the board, cover, and sort trays fit perfectly together in the distinctive, zip-up outer case. The case/caddy is hand-stitched to provide a lifetime of enjoyable, frustration-free use - jigsaw not included.

This is what I use. It's not a table, but you can take the board out and put it wherever you like, then just zip it back up when you're done working on it. I haven't done any 1500 piece puzzles on it yet, but it's been great for 1000 pieces.

Well, as a father of 2 toadlers that loves soloing long games such as Mage Knigt, Anachrony, I faced a similar predicament last year and I found something that changed forever my solo boardgaming hobby : https://www.amazon.com/JIGSORT-1500-Jigsaw-puzzle-Jigthings/dp/B002ZHJAYS
It does not work for all games as you cannot leave tall pieces, but for most games I have tried it is ok, although depending on the game, I have to remove some stuff before putting it back in the lid (e.g., minis in MK or Anachrony...). What I do is I always take multiple pictures of the board state before hand because tokens can move a bit. In any case, it makes tearing down and setting up again much more palatable.
Essentially get good cardboard and make a $5 version of a Puzzle Caddy. I've used hot glue to make a lip around the edge of the cardboard so that pieces can't slide off the edges.

For a faster startup, you can simply sort pieces into the lids of old puzzle boxes. You'll still need a good place to build the puzzle, but you at least don't have to spread 1000 pieces around a small table.
I currently use a jigsort similar to this it's lined with felt which holds the pieces well.

If making your own and if you are stuck for space, when making the raised edges make them all the way round then make an insert to fit this reasonably tight you can then clamp /strap this in place enabling you to stand your jigsaw on it's side behind the sofa or against a wall out of the way when not in use.
After using jigsaw mats that rolled and having to spend the first 20 minutes fixing it this is a Godsend.

PS always buy/build bigger than you need as the challenges just get bigger in size and pieces.
Hope that helps
I have a cat. It's all about keeping it covered when you're not working on it. I use one of these now. It's expensive but it's been so awesome, you put the puzzle together on the big tray and zip it all up when you're not working on it. Also helps that I don't have much space and can do them sitting on my bed now.
I have this one and I love it. It’s pricey but great quality. I put it on my bed or on the floor to do puzzles and it also comes with four sorting boards which are very helpful.

I love the [Jigsort 1500] (https://www.amazon.com/JIGSORT-1500-Jigsaw-puzzle-Jigthings/dp/B002ZHJAYS/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1549204846&sr=8-3&keywords=Jigsort+1500) but it cost HALF the price listed earlier this month. It is available in different sizes.
Another idea -- something like the Jigsort puzzle keeper might work in some cases. No first hand experience with this (I'm lucky to have a small spare table w/ no kids or critters).

I have this and I love it! The board comes out of the carrying case for when you are working on it. When I'm done for the night but don't want to put it completely away I just put the sort trays on top of the puzzle and it covers the whole thing. When I'm done for a while, I put the tray in the carrying case and slide it under my bed. It's awesome! I have a cat too and this protects the puzzle from her quite nicely.
