What Is an Extendable Dining Table?
An extendable dining table features built-in leaves or panels that allow you to increase the table's surface area when you need additional seating, then return it to a smaller footprint for everyday use. Self-storing extension leaves remain concealed within the table structure, eliminating the need to find separate storage space for the leaves when not in use.
What You Get With the Essentials For Living 71-106 Inch Extendable Glass Top Dining Table
- Self-Storing Extension System -- two 17.75-inch leaves stay hidden within the table frame and deploy with a one-handed mechanism, expanding the table from 71 to 106.5 inches.
- 12mm Tempered Glass Top -- heat-treated glass surface resists scratches and thermal shock while providing a contemporary look that pairs with most chair styles.
- Solid Ash Double Pedestal Base -- wide-stance pedestal design in Natural Gray Ash finish with chrome accents provides stability and allows unobstructed legroom for up to 10 guests.
- Flexible Seating Capacity -- accommodates 8 people in its compact 71-inch form and expands to seat 10 comfortably at 106.5 inches for larger gatherings.
How Do You Style a Contemporary Extendable Dining Table?
Pair this glass-top table with upholstered dining chairs in neutral tones to let the Natural Gray Ash finish anchor your dining room furniture arrangement. The double pedestal base works in both open-concept spaces and traditional dining rooms, and the transparent glass top creates visual lightness that makes smaller spaces feel larger. For a cohesive look, browse modern kitchen dining tables and coordinate with pieces from the living room furniture collection if your dining area flows into an adjacent space.
