Know before you buy
The Elan Drive features a smooth sliding mechanism that allows you to pull the ends of the table apart to reveal the internal extension leaves. This design ensures you can easily transition from a standard size to a larger configuration without needing to store separate leaves.
Clear glass has a slight natural green tint, which is most visible along the edges. Extra-clear glass has a lower iron content, resulting in a more neutral, transparent appearance that is ideal if you prefer a perfectly colorless look.
The embossed finish on the steel base is textured rather than smooth, which makes it significantly more resistant to fingerprints and smudges compared to a high-gloss or matte-painted surface.
Yes, the Elan Drive is built with a durable steel frame and tempered glass top, making it well-suited for daily use. However, as with any glass-top table, we recommend using coasters and placemats to prevent surface scratches over time.
The table maintains a standard height of 29 1/2 inches. Because the base is designed to support the extension rails, ensure your dining chairs have a seat height that allows for comfortable legroom under the frame.
The table arrives in multiple components, including the heavy glass top and the steel base. While it can be assembled by two people, professional installation is recommended due to the weight and delicate nature of the glass top.
