Know before you buy
The wood types vary primarily in grain pattern and hardness. For example, Oak and Quartersawn White Oak offer prominent, distinct grain textures, while Brown Maple and Cherry provide a smoother, more uniform appearance. All options are solid hardwoods, ensuring long-term durability regardless of your choice.
The table features a gear-driven slide mechanism that allows you to pull the ends apart to insert or remove the leaves. Because it uses a trestle base, the legs remain stationary at the ends of the table, providing consistent legroom even when the table is fully extended.
No, Quartersawn White Oak is milled differently to expose the 'ray flake' or tiger-stripe pattern in the grain. This method also makes the wood more stable and resistant to warping compared to standard flat-sawn Oak.
Yes, the leaf options are compatible with both the 42-inch and 48-inch width configurations. Keep in mind that adding four leaves significantly increases the table's footprint, so ensure your dining room has enough clearance to accommodate the full length when extended.
The table is finished with a high-quality, durable topcoat designed to protect against moisture and typical household wear. However, it is still recommended to use coasters and placemats, as extreme heat or prolonged standing water can damage the finish over time.
