Dining Table sizing guide

  • Choose your table length (cm).

    Length controls how many people can sit down each long side. I allow 40 cm total for leg clearance, so the usable seating run is length −40cm. Full length benches don’t tuck under, but give extra seating capacity.

  • Enter your chair width (45–60 cm).

    Seats per long side are calculated as floor((length -40cm) ÷ chair width).

    Example: 200 cm length → usable run 160 cm.

    With 45cm chairs: = 3 per side.

    With 50cm chairs = 3 per side.

    With 60cm chairs: = 2 per side.

  • Use it as a realistic guide.

    Results are based on comfortable spacing. Benches can feel a touch more flexible for mixed family seating. If you’re unsure, message me—I’ll sanity-check your room and recommend the best size.
