One Size Doesn't Fit All...

You may wish to sit many people in a smaller space or sit few people in a larger space. By choosing the correct size dining table, you can accommodate several scenarios. Our illustrative examples below show how to strike the balance between comfort and dining table size depending on the number of dining chairs you use.

Dining Table and Bench Guide

  • Advice on Choosing Your Dining Bench Size

    We recommend buying the same width bench as your table for maximum flexibility, however if space is an issue and you wish to store your bench underneath your table please ensure your table can accommodate.

    No two Dining Tables are the same and we encourage planning your bench size relative to your Dining Table size prior to making your purchase. Our friendly, expert team are available to assist via live chat, email or telephone to help ensure you have the correct sizes.

    Images are illustrative examples, please check span size between dining table legs when choosing your Dining Bench.

  • Slide under Dining Table (example shown is with our Coast Dining Table)

    If you would like your dining table to slide between the legs of your Coast Dining Table, we advise a max bench width of 50cm shorter than your table (the span between the legs).

  • Manoeuvre between Dining Table Legs (example is with our Coast Dining Table)

    Alternatively a bench 30cm shorter than the overall width of the table can be manoeuvred between the legs for storage under your Dining Table.
