How to Choose Dining Tables and Chairs for Home? Which is Better: Solid Wood, Marble, Sintered Stone, or Glass?
A stylish and tasteful dining room can create a warm and comfortable dining atmosphere, enhancing family relationships and making meals a happy experience. As the focal point of the dining room, different styles and materials of dining tables offer varying user experiences.
How to Choose a Dining Table?
1.Material Selection
Common materials for dining tables on the market include solid wood, marble, sintered stone, and glass:
2. Sintered Stone Dining Table: This is a mainstream material for dining tables, combining practicality with high aesthetic value, appealing to modern young people. It is characterized by high hardness, good wear and scratch resistance, easy cleaning due to its non-porous surface, and built-in antibacterial properties.
3. Solid Wood Dining Table: Ideal for those who prioritize environmental health, as it is made from natural wood, safe, eco-friendly, and durable. However, it is not very heat-resistant and can easily get scorched.
4. Marble Dining Table: A lower-end alternative to sintered stone tables. While it has a smooth surface, it is prone to oil stains and is difficult to clean due to its porosity. It has high hardness and is not easily deformed, but it is expensive and not recommended.
5.Glass Dining Table: Highly adaptable for living rooms with a simple design, offering a clear visual appeal and easy cleaning. However, it can be dangerous if it breaks.
Choosing the Shape of the Dining Table
Dining tables mainly come in round, oval, square, and rectangular shapes:
1.Square Dining Table: More flexible and takes up less space, suitable for small apartments or rentals.
2.Rectangular Dining Table: Versatile in style and a popular choice, can be placed against a wall to save space.
3.Round Dining Table: Suits the Chinese habit of sharing dishes but requires more space for comfortable access, making it suitable for medium to large homes.
4.Oval Dining Table: Gaining popularity in recent years, it saves some aisle space compared to round tables.
5.Buying Advice: Choose the shape of the table based on your home's layout. Small apartments can opt for square or foldable tables, which are space-saving and convenient. Larger homes have more options; any of the above shapes can work, depending on personal preference, as long as the table is both aesthetically pleasing and practical.
Choosing the Size of the Dining Table
A reasonable dining table size can make the dining room look more harmonious and aesthetically pleasing, and ensure dining comfort.
Generally, the size of the dining table should not exceed one-third of the entire dining room. If your dining room is spacious enough, you can choose a larger, heavier table to maintain balance. Otherwise, it will look disproportionate.
If your space is limited and there are not many residents, opt for a smaller table with thin legs or a foldable table. These options don't take up much space on a daily basis and can be expanded when you have guests over for meals.
