{"product_id":"47-63-extendable-round-dining-table-for-4-8-table-only-gray","title":"Extendable Round Dining Table in Grey - 47 to 63 Inches, Seats 4 to 8, Table Only","description":"\u003cp\u003eA round table does something a rectangle cannot, which is put everyone at the same distance from everyone else. There is no head of the table, no one stranded at a corner, and no diagonal across which conversation has to be shouted. For a household that eats together and talks while eating, that geometry is the whole argument for choosing round, and it is why round tables are the default in restaurants designed for groups. This one extends from 47 inches to 63 inches, taking it from a comfortable four-seater to a table for eight. The extension is what makes a round table practical rather than limiting, because the usual objection to round is that capacity is fixed and a round table cannot simply have another place squeezed onto the end. Here it can. Closed, it suits a kitchen or a small dining area without dominating; open, it handles a dinner party. The 16-inch span between the two is the difference between a table that works for a couple and one that works for a gathering. A round table that extends removes the one real drawback of choosing round. For a room where conversation matters as much as the meal, the round form is difficult to argue against.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe table is built on a wood frame and finished in grey, a tone that has become the default neutral for contemporary dining rooms for good reason. Grey sits comfortably with painted cabinetry, stone and composite worktops, and the mid-tone flooring common in modern homes, and unlike a brown wood finish it does not need the rest of the room to match it. It is also more forgiving in daily use than either a pale or a black top: crumbs and dust show less than on black, and rings and marks show less than on white. When the table is extended, the shape moves from a circle to an oval, which is worth knowing when you are planning a room. An extended round table needs clearance in the direction of the extension specifically, not uniformly, so check that axis against your walls and furniture. Care is routine: wipe spills as they happen, use a damp cloth and dry it, put mats under hot dishes, and avoid abrasive cleaners entirely. Grey also photographs well and sits neutrally under both warm and cool lighting, which is worth considering in a room that is used in daylight and again in the evening under lamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAssembly is required and all tools are included, so nothing needs to be bought in advance. Build the table in the room where it will stand, working upside down on a blanket or the flattened carton to protect the finish, and arrange help for the final turn upright. This listing is for the table only, so chairs are not included and should be planned separately. On a round table, allow about 24 inches of edge per person and remember that the usable perimeter grows as the table extends, which is exactly what gives you the extra places. Leave roughly 90 centimetres of clearance around the table for chairs to be pulled back and for people to pass behind. Because a round table has no corners, it is a particularly good choice for a small or awkwardly shaped room where a rectangle would leave a sharp edge in a walkway. House2Home ships worldwide. Message us before ordering if you would like the closed and extended dimensions confirmed. If the room is genuinely small, the round form is worth choosing over a rectangle even at the same seating capacity, because the absence of corners means the walking route around the table stays usable at every point rather than pinching at four places.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter: 47 inches closed, 63 inches extended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeats: 4 to 8 depending on configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: round, becomes oval when extended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame material: wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: grey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied: table only, chairs not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallation: assembly required, all tools included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClearance: allow approx. 90cm around the table\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtension axis: check clearance in the direction of extension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: wipe spills promptly, avoid abrasive cleaners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of pieces: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"House2Home","offers":[{"title":"United States \/ Grey","offer_id":49055453249689,"sku":"14:94#Grey;200007763:201336106","price":400.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/3434\/8185\/files\/hf_20260920_052521_e9a8861d-c0aa-41f8-93b9-4c3f9719288c.png?v=1789882436","url":"https:\/\/house2h.com\/products\/47-63-extendable-round-dining-table-for-4-8-table-only-gray","provider":"House2Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
