When it comes to dinner table design, wood is just the first consideration. There are various types of tables to consider that reflect your design preferences. Here are a few types to choose from.
➤ Shape: Decide whether you want a round, oval, square, or rectangular table.
➤ Size: Consider the width of the table in your space.
➤ Height: Decide whether you want a standard dinner table or if your home is better served by a taller option.
➤ Capacity: Choose a smaller table for four or a larger table that can seat up to 10.
➤ Style: Look for tables that reflect specific design styles or break out of the norm with a multi-style dining area.
Knowing your ideal type can make your search easier. For example, if you know you want a wood round dining table, you won’t waste your time looking at rectangular models. The more table options you can eliminate, the more you can focus on your ideal table selection.

Best Wooden Dining Table Features
Style is important when it comes to picking out a table, but so are the features it comes with. The next step in finding your ideal wooden dining table is checking to make sure it has all the features you need. Here are a few options.
➥ Leaves: Check to see if your ideal table has zero, one, or two leaves to expand seating capacity.
➥ Storage: Some wooden tables have drawers or cabinets to increase your storage options.
➥ Durability: Not all wood tables are equally durable. Make sure the one you choose can keep up with your lifestyle.
➥ Weight: If you find yourself frequently moving furniture, you may want to buy a table that is light enough to lift or easy to take apart.
Longevity of style is another consideration. Trends change, and some people don’t want to replace their tables every few years. Decide whether you are looking for a table that will look amazing for decades or if you are willing to push the envelope with a fashion-forward piece.
