Although many of the chairs in the archive were really comfortable, we wanted to achieve even better comfort. Through trial and error, Mikael and the team searched for the most perfect angle of the backrest and created a seat that is really comfortable to sit on for a long time. “We chose paper cord for the seat since it's strong and gives pleasant suspension when you sit on it.”

Space saverKevin Chee HongA big space saver with ample of room to move around the kitchen counter and the living room. But can sit 8 guests when extended.
Love this tableAnastasyaWe love our new dining table. It's very cozy, with a great extension mechanism. Combined with the matching rattan chairs, easily one of the best furniture items in Ikea.
Sturdy tableEvaI just finished assembling the SKANSNÄS round table and I am blown away by the quality. It has a beautifully slick, modern design that looks high-end, but the real surprise is how heavy it is. Once I finished building it, I tried to lift it on my own and—oh my—you absolutely need two people to get this thing upright! It feels incredibly sturdy and well-made. If you want a table that won't wobble and looks gorgeous in a kitchen, this is it. Just make sure you have a buddy nearby to help you flip it over!
Nice good qualityLouiseEasy too put together
Kitchen tableVinceIt fits perfect in our kitchen and is great when you need more space on the table and for guests
Really Excellent Dining Room Table BarryJust put this table together. Though it took 1.5 hours, it came together really easily. The instructions were clear, though I had to look hard a few times, as it's all pictures. No words. Not a problem though...just had to pay close attention. I only had to re-read the instructions twice, when I questioned why something didn't quite fit right. There was one comment I read before I bought it, that indicated the 2 pieces of the table top did not come together correctly. I did not have this problem. The fit of all parts is very precise. I will say that a power screw driver or drill with the correct screw driver bit is a must, as there are a lot of screws. All in all...it is an excellent table!! I'm very happy with it!!!
Sturdy and practical but the surface finishing is not perfect RayBasically it’s a good dining table and I’m a bit disappointed that there’s a flaw found on the table top.
Beautiful but so fragileElizsaI would give a five for the look and the practical side.
But the surface of the table scratch looking at it. Extremely fragile. Very disappointing for the price you pay.
Great Compact TableLindsaySo far so good. We have had the table for only a week, but have really enjoyed the use and functionality of the table. If you're looking for sommething compact this is the table.
Some inaccuraciesErikaIn terms of materials, it's a greate piece of furniture. It is easy to assemble. However the product that we bought suffers from some inaccuracies in the length of the frame pieces and maybe the locations of the pre-drilled holes which causes a gap between the 2 main tabletop pieces when the table is closed.
Solid qualityJenniferThis is a beautiful table and the fold-away leaf is ingenious. The table is very easy to expand and to revert to its smaller size. There are a lot of screws, however, so it’s best to ensure your cordless screwdriver is fully charged. It took probably 3 hours to put together on my own, but it was well worth the time. This is a statement piece which will last for years.

Story
A timeless dining experience
After having designed and produced furniture for more than 70 years, we have some goodies in our archive that can serve as inspiration for new furniture. Sure, everything wasn’t better in the past, especially not comfort and flexibility, so it’s important to base the work on our needs today, just like we have done with the SKANSNÄS series.
The 1950s and 60s were a real golden age in Scandinavian design history. The lines became cleaner and the materials gave character. In our archive, Designer Mikael Axelsson found a real treasure chest of inspiration. “Typical of that time are generous chairs with wide backrests without visible fittings or screws,” tells Mikael. “But they were sold ready-assembled, and the flat pack hadn’t had its breakthrough yet.” Today, our smart wooden plug, the wedge dowel, means you can easily assemble the SKANSNÄS chair. And the plug is invisible from the outside!”
A chair to lean back in
For small and large dinner parties
The SKANSNÄS series is made of beech, a hard and durable wood with beautiful graining – just like many of the furniture in the design archive. But, today most of us put higher demands on flexibility. The tables have a so-called butterfly extension. When the house is full of guests, you can easily unfold it and extend the table in a matter of seconds. “SKANSNÄS tables and chairs are made so you can lean back and enjoy small and large dinner parties for many years.” And who knows, maybe they will also become treasures in the archive that inspire future designers.
