5 tips to choose a dining table set

1. Consider the size of the room in which you plan to feature the dining set as having a massive table and a full set of chairs in a tiny room can be cumbersome and claustrophobic. It is also important to note that larger tables tend to cost more. There are also optional leaves available for many tables which can be beneficial if you are concerned about space.
2. How many people are going to be seated at this dining table? How many people is it intended for? Both questions are additional factors in choosing the size of your dining table and how many chairs will be required to have the entire dining set you desire. Most of our chairs are sold separately and can be easily added or removed from orders depending on your needs.
3. Choose your materials wisely. As with all solid wood furniture, wood choice matters from both an aesthetic and upkeep perspective. For example, if low maintenance is a requirement you may consider choosing a different wood and using a table covering rather than choosing a different wood that you intend to display and keep healthy.
4. Ponder the function of your dining set before making your choices. A dining set intended for use by retirees has different requirements than a primary family dining set which will be regularly assaulted by children of all ages during its lifetime. As mentioned above, if a full table covering is going to be used, you may be better off choosing a less costly wood due to the increased possibility of damage and the fact that it will be regularly covered.
5. Mix and Match. As many of the furniture available from Prestige Solid Wood can be custom made to order why not choose the exact table and chair combination you desire. Many of our pieces can be made in a selected wood or finish and thus you can mix and match different chairs and tables at your leisure.
