What customers say
Customer sentiment for the Hooker Furniture Affinity 78" Rectangle Pedestal Dining Table is overwhelmingly positive, positioning it as a highly desirable centerpiece for formal dining spaces. Reviewers consistently praise the table's substantial presence and sophisticated aesthetic, noting that the unique pedestal base provides both exceptional stability and superior legroom compared to traditional four-legged designs. The quality of the construction is a major highlight; customers frequently describe the table as 'heirloom quality' due to its impressive weight, solid feel, and the rich, deep finish of the wood veneer. This high level of craftsmanship successfully justifies the premium price point for many buyers seeking long-term durability and timeless elegance. While the sentiment is strong regarding the product itself, minor logistical challenges occasionally surface. Due to the table's considerable size and weight, delivery and assembly can be demanding, sometimes requiring specialized setup services. However, once installed, the table is universally lauded for its ability to anchor a room and elevate the dining experience, leading to very high overall satisfaction among those who prioritize design integrity and lasting quality in their furniture investments.
Know before you buy
The table measures 78 inches at its base, seating 6 guests. With both included 18-inch leaves, it extends to 114 inches, providing comfortable seating for up to 10 people.
The finish is a sand-blasted greige, which gives the wood a tactile, distressed quality. This texture highlights the natural grain of the quartered oak veneers while providing a soft, modern aesthetic.
The table is equipped with a three-piece geared wood slide system. This mechanism is designed to make the process of adding or removing the leaves smooth and manageable.
The pedestal design is specifically engineered to provide maximum legroom around the perimeter of the table. Because the support is centered, you won't have to worry about table legs obstructing chairs or guest seating.
Because the finish is distressed and sand-blasted, it is quite forgiving regarding minor wear. We recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth and avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that could alter the matte texture of the wood.
Assembly is required for this piece. You will need to attach the tabletop to the pedestal base, which typically involves securing the provided hardware according to the included instructions.
