Frequently asked questions
Should I buy a 6 seater or an 8 seater dining table? A 6 seater suits most Indian families and fits standard dining areas. An 8 seater needs a larger room but is useful if you host often.
How big is your 6 seater dining table? Our wooden 6 seater pages list a 5.5 x 3 ft table, 30 inches high.
Do you sell 8 seater dining tables? Our wooden dining range lists 6 seater and 4 seater sizes. Ask us on WhatsApp if you need a larger custom size.
How much space does a 6 seater need? Leave about 3 ft around the table for chairs and walking, so plan roughly 11.5 x 9 ft of floor.
Can I seat 8 at a 6 seater table? For occasional meals, adding a bench or two extra chairs at the ends can work, but it will be tight.
