5-Piece Dining Table Set for 4-8 People

About this piece

A dining table and its seating, bought together so the height of one already suits the other. Assembled size is 31.5 in wide by 63.0 in deep by 29.9 in high.

Structurally it is built from MDF panel and steel frame, rated to 550 lb.

It extends from 47.3 in to 63 in, which moves it from an everyday table to a table for guests without either size being a compromise.

Details worth knowing: the feet adjust, so a floor that is slightly out does not make it rock.

A set removes the one mistake that is hard to undo later: the gap between table height and seat height. Ten to twelve inches is comfortable, and a table and chairs bought together already agree on it.

The honest capacity of a table is its usable edge divided by about twenty four inches per person, and the room around it wants thirty six inches of clear floor on every side people walk down. Both figures are on every page in kitchen & dining, and How Big a Dining Table Do You Actually Need works through what to do when the room refuses to give them.

Sizes, load ratings and what fits what are stated the same way across iPormis kitchen furniture, so two pages can be compared without opening either box.
