1. How long will my wooden dining table and chairs set last?

Your wood table and chairs will vary in lifespan depending on the type of wood used, but with appropriate maintenance and care, your set can last for decades. Applying protective layers to your wooden furniture, such as teak oil, can increase its longevity. Make sure you use products compatible with your table’s wood type and always test in an inconspicuous area first.

2. How should I care for my wooden dining table and chairs?

To care for your dining table furniture, clean up any spills immediately with a damp cloth and mild dish soap. Many products are available to protect your wood from damage, but avoid using polishes that will leave a dull residue after cleaning. Always check that any cleaning agents are suitable before using them on your table. Hot items can burn your wood, so be sure to use trivets for extra protection.

3. What are the best wooden dining tables and chairs for a kitchen?

Finding your ideal wooden kitchen table and chairs is easy with Barker and Stonehouse’s wide variety of designs. For seating large numbers of people, try a wooden table and bench to maximise space, or opt for an extending design to suit special occasions.

4. How do I style a wooden dining table and chairs set?

Dining sets offer plenty of space to add personal touches of style. Try adding cushions or other soft furnishings to your chairs, or give your solid wood dining table a unique centrepiece with candle holders or decorative bowls.

5. What should you not put on a wood table?

Avoid placing hot items like cookware or candles on your wooden table without appropriate protection. Trivets can be used to protect against damage from hot saucepans and pots, while candle holders should be used to prevent burns from wax. Tablecloths can also guard your table from spills and stains.

6. Are solid wood dining table and chairs a good choice?

Solid wood dining tables and chairs are generally an excellent choice, but whether they’re right for you depends on your preferences and your priorities.

Due to their solid construction, they are very durable and long-lasting, meaning that, with the proper care, they can last for decades. They don’t sag, peel, or break easily, so they’re ideal for anyone looking for a long-term investment rather than replacing their furniture every few years.

It’s also an excellent choice for anyone who wants a dining table and chairs set that delivers a high-quality look and never goes out of style. It also works with many different styles (rustic, modern, and traditional, to name a few) and is one of the safest choices you can go for if you want something that will pair well with a variety of colour schemes and that will never look outdated.

7. What size wooden dining table and chairs set do I need?

What size wooden dining table and chairs set you choose depends on your dining space and how you utilise it.

If you’re a larger household or someone who hosts a lot of parties, you may want to go for a larger wooden dining set, preferably with 6 seats or with benches. Benches offer versatile seating arrangements, so you can adjust them to your needs. The same applies to extending wooden dining tables. With these, you can extend or reduce the dining table, so if you are about to host a bunch of guests, you can extend it. Then once you no longer need the extra space, you can reduce it.

8. How many people can sit at a wooden dining table and chairs set?

The number of people who can sit at a wooden dining table depends on the specific design you choose. Smaller sets typically seat 4, while larger options can comfortably accommodate 6 to 8 people. Consider how many guests you usually host or cater for and use that as your starting point.

If your needs vary, a wooden dining set with benches offers added flexibility, or you could opt for an extending table and chairs set, allowing you to adjust the seating space as needed. There’s also the option to add additional dining chairs, which will allow you to create more seating while adding your own personal touch to your design.

9. Are there extending wooden dining table and chairs sets?

Our collection features selected extending wooden dining table and chair sets, providing added flexibility for seating. As this option is only available on certain designs, be sure to check whether your chosen dining set includes this functionality.

10. Do wooden dining table and chairs sets require assembly?

Most medium and large items from Barker and Stonehouse are delivered fully assembled. However, there are a few exceptions, so it’s always best to check the product description for detailed assembly information. You can also use our handy Will It Fit? guide to ensure your new furniture fits comfortably within your chosen space.
