Extendable Dining Table, 160 x 90 x 75 cm, Brown

This extendable dining table handles breakfast, homework and dinner without fuss, on a top that resists rings from hot cups and wipes down in one pass. The Brown finish keeps the grain readable and pairs easily with both pale Scandinavian and darker traditional schemes.

Quality MDF panels, properly braced at the back and base, give the piece the weight and stability to sit square on an uneven floor. The base is braced and the back panel is fixed, so the unit stays square even on a floor that is not quite level.

Key features

• The top is thick enough to take a clamp for a high chair or a lamp, and the underside is sealed against spills
• Levelling feet take up the difference on an uneven floor, so the table does not rock while people are eating
• The frame is set inboard from the edges, which means nobody at the table is straddling a leg
• Dimensions: 160 x 90 x 75 cm (L x W x H)
• Weight: 19 kg
• Materials: MDF
• Colour: Brown

It sits comfortably in an open-plan room, where the table needs to work for meals, work and the odd board game. Leave enough room around it for chairs to pull out without scraping the wall.

Dust with a soft cloth and wipe marks with a barely damp sponge, then dry immediately; avoid polish build-up and standing water on the surface.

Simple, solid and easy to live with — mealtimes without the ceremony.
