How to choose the perfect 8 seater dining table 

Length

A eight seater dining table should not be bought without measuring the chairs that you will use. Chairs come in different heights and widths. When you place the chairs side by side, the dining table should be long enough to accommodate them. There should be adequate spacing so that you do not bump into the elbow of your neighbour at the table.

Height 

The height of the 8 seater dining table should be just right for the seat height of the chairs. Choose chairs and tables from the same design series for the perfect match. 

Style

An empty dining room is a blank slate that you can furnish without too much worry. However, many of us have a sideboard or other furniture that we have to match the dining table too. Choose a 8 seater dining table that has design elements in common with your furniture. You can also match the colour or finish of the pieces. Take cues from the leg design, shape and proportion of the table you choose to match the room.

Colour

A wood finished table is a classic that only grows more beautiful with age. White lightens up a room and plays well with other colours. Choose from our range of colours that are designed to match different room interior styles and decor.

Maintenance

If you have children in the home, spills and accidents are inevitable. Pick a dining table top that cleans up easily and wears well. A moisture-resistant table that can be wiped clean makes life easier.
