Dining Sets

Balancing everyday meal times with larger holiday gatherings is precisely what a dining set is designed for. With a table and chairs sold together, dimensions are proportionally paired to eliminate guesswork. Across our range of 100+ sets, the designated seat count (such as a 4, 6, or 8-seater) should dictate your selection before you consider table shape.

Dining set seat counts

Every dining set names a seat count up front, from 4 seater sets for a smaller household through to 8 seater sets for larger family or entertaining tables, similar to our range of standalone dining tables sized the same way. The seat count includes the chairs bundled with the table, whether that's a matching chair set, a bench, or a mix of both in the one set. A 6 seater set is the configuration most households land on. Choosing by seat count first ensures your table and chair proportions match, preventing a setup that is short on seating or overcrowded.

If you need extra chairs beyond what's included, our dining chairs range covers matching and mixed styles.

Dining sets with round and rectangular tables

Rectangular tables dominate our range and suit long dining rooms or larger seat counts where a bench sits well along one side. Round tables, usually in 4 and 6 seater sets, suit a squarer room where room corners are encroached on too much with a rectangular table. A round table also removes furniture corners in a smaller space, useful in a busy household with kids. Match table shape to the room's proportions before seat count, as a rectangular 6 seater and a round 6 seater need quite different floor plans.

Dining set upholstery and materials

Some sets pair upholstered chairs with a timber table, while others keep the whole set in one material for a more matched look. Bench seating shows up in several sets as a way to fit more people into a smaller footprint without adding individual chairs. Colour combinations in our range run from all-natural timber through to mixed white and black finishes on the table with upholstered seats. Decide whether you want the chairs to match the table exactly or contrast with it before narrowing down the shortlist.

Add a sideboard for extra serving storage from our sideboards and buffets range.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose the right seat count for a dining set?

Count your household size plus how many extra guests you regularly seat. Most households land on a 6 seater set.

What table shape suits a smaller dining room?

A round table removes corners and can suit a squarer room better than a rectangular one. Rectangular tables generally suit longer rooms or larger seat counts.

Do dining sets come with a bench instead of chairs?

Some sets pair a bench with chairs. Look at the seating breakdown on each set to see the exact split.

Can I buy extra chairs to match a dining set?

Dining sets are sold as a fixed bundle, so exact matches aren't guaranteed elsewhere. The dining chairs range has a wide style selection if you need extras.

What's the biggest dining set available?

8 seater sets are the largest configuration in our range. They suit larger families or households that entertain often.
