Norine –
That tabletop is actually sold separately from the legs, so you can choose different sizes, finishes, height, etc. I actually bought just the legs and made my own top, since they didn’t have the size I wanted. The legs look great though, I love them.

I have an oversized perfectly square table- didn’t see any like it on your list.

But I can fit two people on each side comfortably, three if they’re petite, or just four chairs on each side. Similar to the Pier1 Latte table (page 61)

My boyfriend has a big family so I like to be ready if they come around, but having an enormously long table at all times wouldn’t cut it for me.

Grace,

So lovely!!! I do love that Blue Dot table. I’m getting a hand me down but maybe in a few years I’ll get that one. I love your choices!!! Thanks for all the advice!

p.s I’ll send you pics of the place soon. We move Friday!

LOVE the Landon table, but I wish it was square and small enough to fit into my space. I’m looking for something to replace my current table. Isn’t there anything out there that can fit (with chairs) in a 4×4 space, expand to seat 6-8 people AND costs less than $300? ;-)

Norine, I’ve seen this combo in person, and it does look great. If you’re like me and don’t mind the “patina” (read: scratches and fingerprints) that stainless steel is prone to, go for it! If you’re the type of person who obsesses over keeping things pristine and brand-new looking, don’t get a stainless steel table, because you will go insane. ;)

Norine, I have that Ikea table, and I love it. I paired it with a set of wooden Danish modern chairs. Anna is right on with mentioning scratches and smudges. You have to embrace the idea that the table will become a living history of all your dinners. But I think it looks like a much more expensive table than it is, and no one ever suspects its provenance.
