What should you consider when choosing an extendable dining table?
When finding the right one for your home, start by thinking about how many people need space at the table on a daily basis. Then, think about how often you need more space. This will determine the ideal size and extension capacity. Perfect for cosy spaces, a smaller table comfortably fits in your dining room on a daily basis and easily extends when hosting gatherings or larger family meals.
Then you’ll need to think about the space you have. You have to make sure that you have enough room for the table to extend without crowding the space. Also, consider how easy the table is to extend. All of our extending dining tables use a simple pull-out or slide design. Finally, you’ll need to think overall about the material and style of the table and how it complements your décor.

How big are extending dining tables?
This all depends on the size of the extendable dining table you choose. Extendable dining tables range from about 80cm to 130cm, and medium and large extendable tables range from 180cm. When extended, the width of your table will increase, and depending on the size you choose, it could be as long as 250cm in total. When looking at a product, use these measurements to determine if your space is big enough to accommodate the extension.
Before being extended, most extendable tables can seat 4-6 people, and when extended, they can seat 8-10 people.
How do extendable dining room tables work?
Extendable dining tables can easily be extended. Choose a leaf-folding extension, where the table has hinged mechanics supported by brackets, and one or both sides can be folded up or down to extend. Or opt for a smoother motion extension with a simple slide or rotate function integrated into the table’s design.
H2 – Are extendable tables sturdy?
Yes, handcrafted with love, our extendable tables are designed to stand the test of time. Made from quality materials such as wood, stone, and metal, they’ll last for generations. To help maintain them, use table runners or placemats during mealtimes. For more information on how to make your table last, take a look at our care guides.
What are the types of extending tables available?
Design your dining space around our collection of extendable dining tables. Each style brings its own unique benefits and aesthetic to your home. Here’s a look at our options and how to choose the perfect one for your space:
Wooden extendable dining tables
Wooden tables are the heart and soul of a home—sturdy, timeless, and full of character. Whether you’re gathering for a Sunday roast or hosting a family holiday dinner, wood creates a welcoming space that feels both solid and comforting. The beauty of wood is that it ages gracefully, so it only gets better with time, just like the moments you’ll share around it.
Dark, rich woods like oak can bring a sense of traditional elegance to your home, while reclaimed timber wood adds rustic charm, giving your dining area a cosy, lived-in feel. If you prefer a more modern, Scandinavian look, lighter woods like ash can brighten the room and offer a minimalist touch. Complete the set with our wooden tables and chairs.
Metal extendable dining tables
If you want to add a sleek, modern touch to your dining area, a metal extendable table could be a perfect choice. A polished metal table with a glass top creates a sophisticated, contemporary vibe, ideal for homes with clean lines and a minimalist design. For a more rugged, industrial feel, metal tables with raw finishes, such as brushed steel or iron, bring an urban, almost edgy touch to your space.
Combine metal with wood, and you strike a balance between industrial roughness and natural warmth—this subtle yet stylish fusion works beautifully in a Scandinavian-inspired home. It’s the best of both worlds: functional, strong, and effortlessly chic.
Stone extendable dining tables
From a high-end modern feel with polished marble or granite to the raw industrial feeling of concrete, there is a stone extendable table for all homes. Stone has a timeless beauty that adds a sense of permanence and class to your home. Built to last and provide a sense of strength and beauty, stone extendable tables are an investment that will bring people together.
Glass extendable dining tables
Offering a light and airy feel, glass extendable dining tables are an excellent choice for families who enjoy a sense of openness and space. The transparency makes your room feel larger and brighter, and the clean, smooth surface provides timeless elegance. There are modern designs with polished metal bases and subtle minimalist styles to choose from.

Rattan extendable dining tables
The natural woven texture of rattan extendable tables adds an organic feel to your home. Bringing a relaxed, homey charm, they are ideal for coastal or rustic interiors. If you love the idea of a cosy and inviting atmosphere for family time, rattan is a superb choice. They’re also durable and easy to maintain. H2 – Pair your extendable table with a set of chairs
An extendable dining room table isn’t finished without the seats. You can mix and match styles with our range of dining chairs in wooden, metal, fabric, or leather. Or, for larger families, why not opt for dining benches, as they will allow you to fit more people around the table?
We’ve also curated our own extending dining table and chair sets to help inspire you. Whether you prefer industrial, modern, or rustic styles, our collections blend functionality with style to elevate your dining space.
