In this era of stressing food, the position of dining table is becoming more and more important. If the kitchen is born to make delicious food, then the restaurant is the best space to share delicious food. Therefore, a good dining table should not only ensure the quality, well-designed, ergonomic and attractive appearance, but also meet other needs ...

How can we choose a suitable dining table? We would like to offer some suggestions here? :

the first step of selection: determine the dining area?

whether you have a special dining room or the living room doubles as a dining room, you must first determine the maximum dining space you can occupy. If the house area is large and there is an independent restaurant, you can choose a dining table with a heavy feeling to match the space;

if the restaurant area is limited and the number of diners is uncertain, and the number of diners may increase on holidays, you can choose the telescopic dining table that is common in the market at present, that is, there is a movable board in the middle, and you should put it in the middle of the table or take it off when not in use. Don't buy an extra-large dining table for only three or four parties a year.

For a small family with limited space, a dining table can serve multiple roles, such as a writing desk and an activity table for entertainment.

in a family without a separate restaurant, the first thing to consider is whether the dining table can satisfy all members of the family. Is it inconvenient to take up space? At this time, the foldable dining table is more suitable for selection.

step 2 of selection: determine the size and shape of the dining table?

Many people like big tables and think they can do whatever they want. But the bigger the table, the better. When we use a restaurant, we don't just sit in a chair to eat, but also serve food, walk around, take things, sit down and so on, so we must leave a proper amount of room for activities. Don't make the aisle narrow because of the pursuit of a big table. You have to walk sideways, which is not worth the candle.

height: when a person sits on a desk and chair with a standard height and his feet are flat on the ground, his thighs and calves are basically vertical; When the arms droop naturally, the upper arm and the forearm are basically vertical, and the height of the desktop just touches the plane of the forearm. According to the standard, the standard height of the dining table is between 751 and 791 mm, while the height of the dining chair is between 451 and 511 mm.

width: the minimum width of the dining table is not less than 75cm. After ensuring the individual dining area (commonly used dishes are 1.6 cm and 18cm in diameter), space should be reserved for the public dining area. If the table width is too small, the space will be very cramped, and it is easy for family members to touch their feet when sitting.

length: the length of a square dining table is generally 71-241cm, a table for two is 81-111cm, a table for four is 121-141cm, and a table for six is 181-211cm.

round table size: the diameter of a general round dining table is 51cm for two people, 81-91cm for four people and 111-121cm for six people. In small and medium-sized houses, if you use a round dining table with a diameter of more than 91cm, you can sit 4-6 people, but too many fixed chairs will be crowded. If there are many people, you can use folding chairs.

However, the circular dining table will waste space to a certain extent. There should be a certain amount of space around it, and even if the number of people dining at ordinary times is small, it can't lean against the wall, so it is more suitable for restaurants with larger space.

Therefore, in a small family, a square table will be more popular than a round table. Its biggest advantage is to save space, and one end can be placed against the wall, so that the space can be maximized. If the restaurant is modern and simple, it is also suitable for putting a square dining table, which looks simple and refreshing as a whole.

in addition to the above points, when considering the size of the dining table, we should also consider the distance between the dining table and the wall. Generally, it is better to control it at about 81 cm, which is the minimum distance including pulling out the chair and making it convenient for diners to move. Generally, people still want to have a spacious space when dining, and they can go in and out at will. If they are too close to the wall, they will be uncomfortable to eat, so this factor should be taken into account when choosing the size of the dining table.

step 3: determine the material and style of the dining table?

There are generally three kinds of dining table materials used for a long time at home: wood, transparent glass and marble.

solid wood dining table

solid wood is the most common dining table material in life, which is clearly visible from the natural wood grain, giving people a sense of nature, and the solid wood dining table is simple and suitable for most home decoration styles.

key points of purchase: when selecting, you should pay attention to distinguish whether there are other woods doped or not, and the solid wood desktop will be smooth, and the composite board will be rough, so you should pay special attention to avoid the collision of the solid wood dining table and the proximity to the fire source.

Glass dining table

The glass dining table is made of toughened glass with relatively high hardness, and the style is more modern, and the glass material is not easy to deform and easy to clean. Simple and clear lines and transparent visual effects make the glass dining table unique and unobtrusive, but the glass material is not suitable for cold winter, which can be solved by laying a tablecloth on it.

shopping points: select qualified and high-strength tempered glass dining table, and the table top is preferably tempered glass with a thickness of more than 8mm. At the same time, we should pay attention to whether the corner of the table is polished and smooth, so as to avoid the desktop bursting and bumping caused by hot objects. In addition, families with children should try not to choose glass dining tables.

marble dining table

marble dining table has high hardness, is not easy to deform, has strong wear resistance and is not easy to corrode. Generally, it can be divided into natural marble dining table and artificial marble dining table. Natural marble dining table is elegant and beautiful, but it is relatively expensive. The lines and pores of natural marble are easy for oil to penetrate, but not easy to clean; The artificial marble dining table has a high density, oil pollution is not easy to penetrate and it is easy to clean.

shopping points: marble is graded. A good marble fast-food table shows that it feels fine and smooth, even if it is lightly scratched, there will be no scratches, and the surface gloss of marble is high. At the same time, we should pay attention to whether other materials matched with marble are of the same quality.

in addition to the choice of materials, the choice of dining table style should be consistent with the overall style of the room. If the bedroom is modern and simple, the dining table should choose the corresponding style, such as a glass dining table with a more modern style; If the bedroom style emphasizes Japanese simplicity, you can consider buying a simple and generous solid wood style.

in short, any furniture in the home can't be "sui generis", and it should be in line with the style of the room.
