I was tired of eating food on my bed. Yes! I ate my food on my bed in my early days as I was too lazy to get up, sit in the lobby where a small center table was placed and eat with my family.

I know your dining area is a place where you can get close to your family, friends, and your loved ones. So said my family members every time we had food served to us.

The main reason for me was that the table was too small, not classy and eating on that was a shame for my teenage mind. Also, I had to bend a little to put anything in my mouth to eat.

I finally asked my father to get a dining table. Not only just a dining table but also one which could go with the walls and have an optimum height according to my height, to take my bend a little problem away.

Dining tables are kind of hot spots even when there is no food on them.  When looking for a dining table you should know that any dining table will just not do.

How To Set The Design In Trend in 2024?

Want to impress guests with your brand new acoustic dining table? If yes, then keep in mind that they can uplift the aura of your dining room.

After consulting with some of my interior designer friends and doing lots of research on the types of dining tables available in India. I have this free advice for you.

Some dining table sets, along with tables and chairs, include a bench too. So, if you want more of a casual look, settle for a straight design sets.

On the other hand, if you are looking for a dining set for daily purpose then go for a dining set made from Sheesham or maybe a grand rubberwood set for a more formal feel. They are budget-friendly and get the work done.

Types Of Dining Table

While we can agree on the fact that Solid Wood Dining Tables have a classic charm but the ones upholstered in fabric or leather can also be considered for the choice since most people have a more comfortable experience with them without any complaints.

Below are some of the materials of which Dining tables are made of and are available in India.

Glass

Glass is currently in trend along with wooden dining tables which are always in priority. There is a myth that glass might break. But the manufacturers know this too so the quality of glass is toughened. While buying a glass dining table always ask for a toughened glass dining table.

Metal

Metal Dining tables are not made entirely of metal but only their frame that holds the main structure of the table is of metal.

In this metal frame, both Glass and Marble can be fitted depending on the budget and choice of the consumer.

Plastic

They are old school Dining tables and are generally used in rural areas of India. Also, the plastic table may tear down as time passes. I would never recommend a plastic dining table for my readers.

Marble

Marble Dining tables have marble in the form of granite, quartz, and laminated marble. This marble sits on the top of the table making it heavy to push around. Marble is really hard to push so once fitted in one place, it takes strength to shift them.

Frame for marble table can be of the choice of Metal or Wood.

Wooden

The following are the categories of the Wooden Dining Tables.

Solid wood

This is a hardwood that is free from termites and does not have hollow spaces. If you have ever heard of Sheesham, teak or shaal then these are the examples of solid wood.

Differentiating between teak, Sheesham and shall is quite difficult so I recommend either a carpenter to be asked for help or go with big brands which have a reputation.

Solid wood is harder, heavier in weight and long-lasting than engineered wood.

Engineered wood

It is also called mass timber, composite wood, man-made wood, or manufactured board, includes a range of derivative wood products which are manufactured by binding or fixing the strands, particles, fibers, or veneers or boards of wood, together with adhesives, or other methods of fixation to form a composite material.


Size And Shape

A-Illustrator’s-dinning-room-decor

Choosing the shape and size totally depends on the buyer. Rectangle, Oval, and Circular are the shapes available in India.

Talking about size, it is a measure of capacity meaning size depends upon the number of family members in the house.

2 Seater is suitable for a couple who are living in a rented apartment and may shift in the near future.

4 Seater is ideal for a family of 3 while 6 Seater is ideal for a family of 4 members. 8 The seater dining table is suitable for a large family.

General advice: Always keep in mind the guests that you can accommodate. So, buy a size that will be ideal for you and can also fit your guests at the dining table.

I have researched on Amazon and Flipkart to find the best of each kind that is trending in the market all over the world. Let’s have a look.
