Help choosing a durable dining table and chairs
Comments (12)Not sure if that is really spam - it would have been on the old GW, but Houzz seems to encourage companies to promote themselves here. I have a Pro Houzz account at work (for another furniture company), and Houzz keeps trying to get me to promote the company even more. I have not really checked to see what their policies are, as I joined Houzz at work mainly to do research to see what other furniture companies were doing and to compare various existing designs - not to promote the company where I work. The company I work for is not in your price range, but I would recommend going to estate sales and find some vintage mid-century furniture. That's how I got my dining set, but it only seats six. For sturdiness, a trestle style table works very well, but they usually do not have extensions. I used to have a table like this in my dining room, and I especially liked it because it was so sturdy and so I liked using it as a sewing table because it had absolutely no wobble. It was also great for laying out fabric for cutting patterns. It was easy to disassemble, and I have it stored flat on an upper shelf in my garage at the moment - I just couldn't get rid of it!...See MoreNeed Help Choosing Chairs for Dining Table
Comments (4)Beautiful table and I think fabric chairs are a perfect choice. With a fabric chair you usually have an exposed leg. You will never match the wood on the chair leg exactly so you just have to pay attention to the style and shade. This is a rustic table so do NOT choose a leg that is formal and polished. Something a bit more rustic and black or gray. There are many to choose from. From there choose a fabric that coordinates with the table surroundings....See Moreneed help choosing dining chairs for table
Comments (3)Take a tape measure when you are shopping. When your table is delivered, measure it with a tape measure. (Ads can be deceiving) Once upon a time, we fell in love with a dining room table, but not the chairs that coordinated with it, The actual table was taller than the dimensions listed. It took us over a year to find upholstered chairs that were the correct height for it. I realize that you and your cats are not in the market for upholstered chairs, but actual table height does matter,...See Moredo square dining chairs go with a round table?
Comments (12)You can do square backs, but not those because they are too MCM for the table. Pair table and chairs with a tone on tone jute and a black border, for instance....See MoreAJ
