Know before you buy
Center extensions are individual leaves that are stored separately when not in use. Butterfly extensions are hinged, allowing them to fold and store directly inside the table for easier access.
The distance from the floor to the bottom of the table skirt is 26 1/2 inches. This provides ample clearance for most standard dining chairs, though you should measure your chair arms if you prefer to tuck them completely under the table.
The equalizer slides allow you to open the table from the center with a single motion. When you pull one end of the table, the other side moves simultaneously, making it easy for one person to expand the table for guests.
Solid wood is a natural material that reacts to humidity changes. To keep it in top condition, avoid placing it in direct sunlight or near heat sources, and use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning rather than harsh chemical cleaners.
Yes, the 24-inch wide base is equipped with built-in levelers. These allow you to adjust the table to ensure it sits perfectly flat on uneven flooring.
Hardwoods like Hard Maple, White Oak, and Hickory are exceptionally dense and resistant to dents and scratches. If you have a busy household, these species are excellent choices for long-term durability.
