Know before you buy
The table features a built-in storage system, allowing you to keep the extension leaves tucked neatly inside the table when not in use. This eliminates the need for separate closet storage and makes transitioning between table sizes quick and simple.
The clearance from the floor to the bottom of the table apron is 25.25 inches. This is important to consider if you are planning to pair the table with chairs that have high armrests, as they may need to slide under the table when not in use.
The low-VOC urethane finish is designed to be low-maintenance and durable. You can clean it by wiping the surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that could degrade the protective layer over time.
All available options—cherry, maple, oak, and walnut—are high-quality, solid hardwoods suitable for daily dining. While maple and oak are generally harder and more resistant to dents, cherry and walnut are prized for their unique grain patterns and the way they develop a rich patina as they age.
Yes, the table is engineered to accommodate both 18-inch leaves simultaneously. This allows you to expand the table from its base length to its maximum capacity, providing significant extra seating for larger gatherings.
