Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about Choosing a Dining Table
From choosing the right size to questions about materials and maintenance, our experts provide a thorough guide to making the right choice.
Generally, the standard dining space per person is considered to be "60cm width x 40cm depth".
- 120cm width (2-4 people): Space-saving and compact. Ideal for single-person households or small dining areas.
- 140cm width (standard for 4 people): Our most popular size, allowing 4 adults to dine comfortably and providing space for shared dishes.
- 160cm width (4-6 people): Recommended for households with frequent guests or those who desire ample space.
You can choose based on ease of maintenance and intended use.
| Material | Heat Resistance | Scratches/Stains | Features / Recommended for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ceramic | ★★★★★ | ★★★★★ | Hot pots can be placed directly. Stains do not penetrate, easiest to clean. |
| Solid Wood (Natural Wood) | ★★☆☆☆ | ★★★☆☆ | Appealing for its warmth. Enjoy its aging process, but coasters are recommended. |
| Melamine Laminate | ★★★☆☆ | ★★★★☆ | Resistant to water and stains, can be disinfected with alcohol. For those prioritizing cost-effectiveness. |
Most of our tables are delivered with the "tabletop" and "legs" disassembled.
The largest part during delivery will be the "tabletop", so please check the [width, height, and thickness] of your front door, elevator entrance, and hallway corners in advance.
Assembly often involves a simple structure where you attach the legs with the included tools. However, ceramic tabletops and large tables are heavy, so we recommend assembly and setup by two or more adults.
Rest assured, felt pads for preventing floor scratches, to be attached to the bottom of the legs, are also included (or standard equipment).
For comfortable posture, the ideal combination is where the "difference in height (table height - chair seat height)" is 27cm to 30cm.
(Example: For a 70cm high table ➔ a chair with a seat height of 40cm to 43cm is the best fit.)
Of course, it can be used for both!
For extended PC work, "matte finish tabletops" that reduce light reflection, and "ceramic/melamine tabletops" that can be easily wiped with water or disinfected with alcohol are especially recommended.
