What Is a Sideboard?

A sideboard is a long, low storage cabinet designed specifically for dining rooms, typically featuring a combination of doors and drawers for organizing tableware, linens, and serving pieces. Unlike a console table, a sideboard offers enclosed storage to keep items dust-free and organized, while providing a flat surface at the perfect height for serving food family-style or displaying decor. Also known as a buffet cabinet or credenza, sideboards are best for dining rooms that need both storage functionality and serving surface area during meals and entertaining.

What You Get With the Olyndra Two Doors Wood Sideboard

1. Arrives Fully Assembled -- No tools or setup required. This sideboard ships ready to place and use immediately, saving you hours of furniture assembly and ensuring all joints are factory-perfect for long-term stability.
2. Three Full-Extension Drawers -- Each drawer pulls out completely for easy access to items stored in the back, with smooth glides that handle the weight of silverware sets, serving utensils, and table linens without binding or sticking.
3. Dual Door Cabinet Storage -- The two hinged doors open to reveal spacious interior storage perfect for larger serving pieces, extra dishes, or table linens that need to stay wrinkle-free and protected from dust.
4. Classic Light Weathered Wood Finish -- The natural wood grain shows through a light finish that coordinates with both warm and cool color schemes, avoiding the stark white or heavy dark stains that limit decorating flexibility.
5. Generous 64-Inch Width -- Provides ample surface space for buffet-style serving while following the design rule that sideboards should be roughly 2/3 the length of your dining table, making this ideal for tables that seat 8-10 people.
6. Dining Room Proportions -- At 36 inches high, this sideboard puts serving dishes at the perfect height for family-style dining, while the 20-inch depth provides storage capacity without protruding too far into walking areas.
7. Quality Wood Construction -- Built from solid wood rather than particle board or MDF, ensuring this piece can handle the daily use that dining room furniture sees, from holiday entertaining to everyday family meals.
8. Multi-Room Versatility -- While designed for dining rooms, the classic styling works equally well as entryway storage, living room media cabinet, or hallway accent piece when your needs change.

What Size Sideboard Do I Need for My Dining Room?

The rule for dining room sideboards is simple: your sideboard should be no more than 2/3 the length of your dining table. For a 96-inch table that seats 8-10 people, that means a sideboard up to 64 inches wide -- exactly what this Olyndra piece provides. Standard sideboard height ranges from 30-36 inches, and this 36-inch height puts serving dishes at comfortable arm level whether you're seated or standing. The 20-inch depth (51 cm) is ideal for most dining rooms, providing substantial storage without making the room feel cramped when chairs are pulled out from the table.

For room planning, allow at least 18 inches of clearance between the back of your dining chairs and the front of the sideboard -- this gives people room to walk behind seated diners without bumping into the furniture. In a typical dining room, position the sideboard along the wall opposite your windows to avoid blocking natural light while creating a natural serving and display area.

How to Style the Olyndra Sideboard in Your Dining Room

Position this sideboard against your dining room's longest wall, typically opposite the windows or between doorways where it won't interrupt traffic flow. The 64-inch length creates a substantial focal point that can anchor a dining room while providing practical serving space during meals.

On top, create height variation with a pair of matching table lamps at either end, leaving the center 24 inches for serving dishes during meals or a large decorative bowl, tray, or seasonal arrangement. The light weathered wood finish pairs beautifully with brass or bronze lamp bases, while the classic styling works with both traditional and transitional decor.

Inside the drawers, organize your most-used items: everyday silverware in the top drawer, serving utensils and cloth napkins in the center, and table linens in the bottom drawer. The cabinet space behind the doors is perfect for larger serving pieces, extra dishes, or items you only use for entertaining.

For rug placement, choose a dining room rug that extends at least 8 inches beyond the sideboard on both sides -- typically a 9x12 or 10x14 rug for most dining room layouts. This creates visual balance and ensures the sideboard feels integrated with your dining table rather than floating separately.

Consider pairing with dining chairs in rich upholstery that picks up the warm wood tones, or add table lamps with warm brass finishes that complement the natural wood grain.

Ideal for families with traditional or transitional dining rooms who need substantial storage for entertaining without overwhelming a medium-sized space. Interior designers specifying classic American pieces for residential dining rooms will appreciate the solid wood construction and LOOMLAN's up to 40% trade discount with no minimum order. Well-suited for vacation rental properties and boutique hotels seeking dining room storage that looks residential but ships fully assembled and handles frequent use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What dining table size works best with this 64-inch sideboard?

This sideboard is perfectly sized for dining tables between 84-96 inches long (7-8 feet), which typically seat 8-10 people. The 2/3 rule means your sideboard should be roughly two-thirds the length of your table, so this 64-inch piece creates ideal proportions with larger family dining tables.

Is this solid wood or veneer construction?

This is solid wood construction throughout, not particle board with veneer like many mass-market pieces. At this price point, you get furniture-grade wood construction typically found in pieces costing significantly more from traditional furniture stores, with the durability to handle daily family use and entertaining.

How long does assembly take?

No assembly required -- this sideboard ships fully assembled and ready to place. Just unpack and position in your dining room. This is a major advantage over flat-pack furniture that requires hours of assembly and often results in wobbly construction.

Can I get trade pricing on this sideboard?

Yes, LOOMLAN's trade program offers up to 40% off retail with no minimum order and 1-2 day approval. This is significantly better than Crate & Barrel's 25% trade discount with $1,000 minimum or West Elm's 20% with project requirements.

What's your return policy if this doesn't fit my space?

LOOMLAN offers returns within the timeframe detailed on our returns page. Given that this ships fully assembled, we recommend double-checking your doorway and stairway measurements -- the 64-inch width needs to clear your delivery path.

Can this be used as a TV stand for large televisions?

While this sideboard is 64 inches wide and could physically support a large TV, it's 36 inches high, which puts most TVs above ideal viewing height for comfortable seating. For TV use, consider our dedicated TV and media stands designed for optimal viewing angles.

How does this compare to West Elm or CB2 sideboards?

Unlike mass retailers that typically use engineered wood or veneer construction, this is solid wood throughout with fully assembled delivery. West Elm and CB2 sideboards in this size range typically require assembly and use particle board cores with wood veneer, while this offers furniture-store quality at a more accessible price point.
