An item 100 of aircraft furniture, suitably a table or monitor, comprises an attachment mechanism 120 having an attachment element 122, suitably a slidable lug, moveable between a mating position, in which it mates with a mating element connected to an aircraft floor, and an unmated position, and an integrated locking mechanism 130 having a locking element 132, suitably a locking pin, moveable between a locking position, locking attachment element 122 in the mated position, and an unlocking position. Locking element 132 may be moved to the locking position by moving a portion 111 of item 100, suitably a table top, from a stowed position to a deployed position, typically by unfolding. Tabs (148a, 148b, Figure 3d) may protrude from item 100 to indicate that the item is not securely locked. Suitably, attachment element 122 may be moved between the mated and unmated positions by rotating furniture item 100 through a quarter turn.
