Frequently Asked Questions

How tall should the dining table be?

Standard dining tables typically range from 28 to 30 inches in height, accommodating most chairs and providing comfortable leg space. For taller individuals, tables on the higher end of this range may offer more comfort, while shorter people might prefer tables at the lower end. Adjustable-height tables can also be a versatile solution to cater to everyoneʼs needs.

What size table do I need for my dining room?

For a table seating four, aim for 36 to 44 inches in diameter (round) or width (rectangular). Six to eight guests require 44 to 54 inches, while ten or more need 54 inches or larger. Rectangular tables should be about 36 to 40 inches wide for comfortable dining. Consider an expandable table for flexibility with guest numbers, offering both space efficiency and accommodation for larger gatherings.

How much room should be around a dining table?

Maintain at least 36 inches of space around your dining table to ensure easy movement of chairs and unobstructed passage for people walking by seated diners.

What factors should I consider for a dining tableʼs durability?

Focus on materials that offer durability, such as hardwoods for wood tables, tempered glass for glass tables, and metals like stainless steel or wrought iron. Quality construction and joinery are crucial for longevity.

How do I choose a dining table for a small space?

In small spaces, opt for tables with extendable leaves, drop-leaf designs, or round tables that can be neatly placed in corners. Light-colored or glass materials can help the space feel larger and more open.
