Part 1. What is Pedestal Table?

As a piece of furniture, a pedestal table has a wide and flat top supported by a single central column (according to thefreedictionary.com). Generally, it is featured with round tabletop and a firm base in the middle. Now, some of them are developed with oval or even rectangular top in various styles and fits for different kitchen and dining room.

The pedestal tables or desks are easy to add the seats around the table but the chairs merely can be nested into the edge space if they are not in use. The design of those tables seem luxurious and elegant than the harvest table with legs, so the price is usually more expensive. Don’t worry about such issue too much, since POVISON provides plenty of aesthetic pedestal desks and tables at the great price.

Part 2. Is Pedestal Dining Table Safe?

In most scenarios, the dining tables with pedestal base are stable for dining and prevent people hitting the table legs since there is no leg on the corner. However, the supporting point of the tabletop is just in the center so once you place the heavy objects on the edge of the pedestal table, it may lost the balance and topple over. Thus, you should be more careful if your children are too young to identify the risk of climbing on the pedestal dining table.

Part 3. Why you should pick up pedestal dining table

A pedestal dining table is an excellent choice for your dining space for several compelling reasons:

Space Efficiency: Pedestal tables have a single central support instead of four legs, providing more legroom and making them suitable for smaller dining areas.
Versatile Seating: They come in various sizes, accommodating various group sizes, from intimate dinners to larger gatherings.
Stability: The central pedestal provides stability and eliminates the risk of uneven chair placement, making it ideal for households with children.
Aesthetic Appeal: Pedestal tables are known for their classic, elegant appearance that can fit various interior styles, from traditional to modern.

How to Pick Up a Pedestal Dining Table?

Similar to selecting other dinner tables, there are some crucial considerations that you should think of:

Size: Measure your dining space to ensure the table fits comfortably with enough room for chairs and people to move around. Allow at least 36 inches between the table edge and walls or furniture.
Shape: Determine whether you prefer a round, oval, or rectangular pedestal table. Round tables are great for optimizing space and promoting conversation, while rectangular tables may work better in longer dining areas.
Material: Consider the table’s material. Solid wood offers durability and a classic look, while materials like MDF may be more budget-friendly.
Style: Choose a style that complements your existing decor. Whether it’s a rustic farmhouse, sleek modern, or traditional design, ensure your table aligns with your aesthetic preferences.
Budget: Set a budget and stick to it. Pedestal tables come in a wide price range, so be sure to select one that meets your financial constraints.
Quality: Check for quality construction, including a sturdy base and a smooth, even tabletop. Test the table’s stability by gently pressing on the tabletop and checking for wobbling.
Extensions: If you anticipate needing extra seating for special occasions, consider a table with extension leaves, which can be a practical addition.
Comfort: When choosing the table’s height, ensure it’s comfortable for sitting and dining. The standard dining table height is around 30 inches.

Those round pedestal dinner tables are designed with distinguished bases for every style and budget. Opt for the right color and dimension of the table to fit for your kitchen and dining room. Last but not least, the safety and stability is much more important so please browse the product specification to know the weight capacity before purchasing.
