The dining table is the true heart of the home. It's where the family gathers for dinner, where the big conversations happen, and where birthdays, Christmas and Sunday roasts all play out. Choosing the right one is worth getting right. Our range runs from compact two-seaters for apartments to generous tables that seat eight or more, in materials from warm solid timber to cool marble and light-catching glass — something to suit every home and every gathering.
FAQs
Can dining tables and chairs be mixed and matched?
Yes! Mixing tables and chairs adds personality. Just keep styles or tones complementary for a cohesive look.
Can I pick a specific delivery date for my dining table?
Yes, you can request a preferred delivery date at checkout. We’ll do our best to accommodate based on availability.
Do glass dining tables scratch easily?
Glass is durable but can scratch with rough use. Use placemats and avoid dragging items to keep the surface clear.
Do the dining tables come fully assembled?
Most tables are flat-packed for delivery and require simple assembly. All tools and instructions are included.
How many people can fit at a 4, 6, or 8 seater table?
It depends on the table size and shape—most rectangular tables seat 4 to 8 people comfortably, while extendable tables can accommodate more. Please refer to the product dimensions for seating capacity recommendations.
How much space should be left around a dining table?
Leave at least 90cm of clearance on all sides for chairs and walking space.
What is the best shape for a dining table?
Rectangular tables work well for most rooms, while round or oval tables are great for tighter spaces and casual flow.
What’s the difference between veneer and solid wood tables?
Solid wood is natural and long-lasting. Veneer uses a thin wood layer over engineered core — more affordable and stable in humidity.
Which dining tables finishes are easiest to clean and maintain?
Look for lacquered, melamine, or sealed wood finishes. These surfaces are smooth, stain-resistant, and easy to wipe down.
What size dining table do I need for a family of 4?
A table around 120cm long comfortably seats four, with room for everyone to eat without bumping elbows. If you'd like space for the occasional guest, a 150cm table seating six gives you handy breathing room.
Is a round or rectangular dining table better for a small room?
Round dining tables are often the better choice for small rooms — with no corners, they take up less visual space and make it easier to move around. A rectangular table seats more, so it suits longer or larger dining areas.
What's the most durable material for a dining table in NZ?
Solid timber is one of the most durable and long-lasting options, standing up well to daily family life and ageing gracefully. Sintered stone and marble are also hard-wearing and resist scratches and heat, while quality glass is sturdy and easy to wipe clean.
