Before You Buy Dining Furniture Measure These Five Things

Before choosing a dining table or chair, take a few measurements. A good fit makes the room easier to use and helps you shop with confidence. Keep your measurements beside you while comparing product pages.

1 Measure the available floor space

Record the room's length and width, and mark doors, cabinets and nearby walkways. Think about how people enter, sit down and move around the table. Use painter's tape to outline a proposed table rather than relying on a photograph to suggest its size.

2 Check the table and base

Tabletop dimensions tell only part of the story. Legs, pedestals and aprons affect where a chair can sit. The Adeline 95-inch white lacquer dining table creates a different visual effect from the Brandyss natural burl dining table. Compare each listing's measurements and materials with the room, and assess chair positions around the base.

3 Compare the chair dimensions

Check seat height, overall width, depth and any arms. Allow for the chair to be pulled out during use. If you are mixing existing chairs with a new table, measure the actual chairs rather than assuming they are a standard size.

The Vina dining chair combines cognac vegan leather and cream textured weave. The Nikita dining chair offers taupe performance vegan leather. Your choice should reflect fit, maintenance preferences and the way the dining area is used.

4 Measure the delivery route

Check the entry door, interior doors, stairs, elevators and any tight turns. Include packaging dimensions where provided. A product can fit in the room and still be difficult to move through the building. If you are unsure, contact us with the item and the route measurements before ordering.

5 Review the complete order

Multiply the price by the quantity you need, then include delivery charges and any applicable taxes. Standard delivery does not include in-home assembly unless specifically confirmed. For remote addresses, upgraded services or more than 24 of a single product, contact us before purchasing.

Stock is subject to supplier confirmation. Avoid booking installers or an event around an assumed arrival date. Ask for the delivery information relevant to your order.
