Know before you buy
The standard pine top is a softer wood known for its rustic character and visible grain, while the optional birch hardwood is significantly denser and more resistant to dents and scratches. If your dining area sees heavy daily use, the birch upgrade offers superior long-term durability.
The table includes two 16-inch company boards, one for each end of the table. These boards allow you to extend the length of the table when hosting larger groups and can be easily removed when you need to save space.
The table provides a 27-inch clearance height from the floor to the underside of the tabletop. This is standard for most dining chairs, but you should measure your chair arms to ensure they slide underneath without obstruction.
No, the pedestal design is specifically intended to eliminate corner leg obstructions. With an 11-inch overhang past the base, you have ample space to pull chairs in close without bumping your knees against the supports.
The table arrives unassembled, but it is designed for straightforward setup. While you can assemble it yourself with standard tools, having a second person to help flip the table after construction is highly recommended due to the weight of the solid wood.
