Solid oak dining table or an oak top
Oak here comes two ways. Three telescopic tables are solid oak, in a natural or walnut finish, extending from about 47.2 inches to 59 or 63 inches. Most others pair a real oak surface layer over a wood core with solid hardwood legs or a solid hardwood pedestal, and one round trestle table has an oak-tone finish. Solid oak can be sanded and refinished down the line, while an oak top gives the same grain in a lighter table.
Round oak dining table and oval oak dining table options
Round and oval shapes lead the range. A 47.24 inch round trestle pedestal table seats four, and several round tables start at 42 inches across and extend to 56 or 58 inches with a leaf. Oval choices include a light oak pedestal table with a hidden storage compartment that opens to 60 inches, and an 80 inch gray oak oval on a dual pedestal that seats six.
Oak extending dining room table sizes
Most oak tables here extend. Rectangular farmhouse tables go from 59 to 77 inches with an extra leaf, and the fixed rectangular tables measure 68.75 by 35.4 inches and seat four to six. Table heights run 29.53 to 30.94 inches, a standard dining height for 18 inch chair seats. Allow about 36 inches behind each chair so people can get up easily.
Light oak dining table finishes and care
Natural and light oak finishes keep a room bright and suit Scandinavian and coastal rooms, while espresso, walnut and gray oak finishes read darker and more formal. Wipe the top with a soft damp cloth and dry it, use placemats and trivets under hot dishes, and keep the table out of strong direct sun to slow color change. Tops with a listed rating hold 200 to 300 pounds.
