Know before you buy
The table features self-equalizing, ball-bearing glides that allow you to expand or close the table using only one hand. The 24-inch leaf folds and stores directly inside the table, so you don't need to find extra storage space for it.
Yes, natural cherry wood is photosensitive and will darken and develop a rich, deep patina as it is exposed to light. This is a characteristic of the wood and will result in a more uniform, warm tone over the first few months of use.
The trestle base provides excellent structural stability while offering more legroom than a traditional four-legged table. Because the supports are set toward the center, you can easily position chairs anywhere around the perimeter without hitting table legs.
To maintain the finish, simply wipe the table with a soft, damp cloth and dry it immediately. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polishes, and use coasters or placemats to protect the wood from extreme heat or moisture.
When choosing a size, ensure you have at least 36 inches of clearance between the edge of the table and your walls or other furniture to allow for comfortable seating. Remember that the table length will increase by 24 inches when the leaf is deployed, so measure your space based on the fully extended dimensions.
