Should I choose a round table or a square table? After understanding the meaning, I finally know how to choose

1. Characteristics of square dining table

The square dining table is the choice of most families. Its advantages are obvious. It can effectively utilize space and will not cause waste of space. It can be placed against the wall to save space. Generally, small apartments will choose a square dining table. However, the square dining table also has certain disadvantages. It has sharp edges and corners, which may pose a safety hazard to families with children.

Advantages of square table:

A square table is a type of table that is square in shape. It is relatively flexible to place and does not take up much space. It can be placed anywhere. However, if there are elderly people at home, this type of table is generally not chosen because the elderly hate this square table. It also has no clear distinction between the primary and the secondary, and is a very impolite behavior.

Disadvantages of square tables:

If your family chooses a rectangular table, sometimes some embarrassing situations may occur. You should know that it is impossible to add a turntable to this kind of table, so half of the people at the table will not be able to eat the dishes, and they can only eat these dishes when eating.

2. Characteristics of round dining table

Round dining tables have a good meaning, representing a happy family, and harmony is the most precious thing in people's minds, so they are also very popular. Its advantage is that it has a high safety index and no sharp edges, so there is no need to worry about children bumping into it; its disadvantage is that it wastes a lot of space and is not suitable for small-sized restaurants.

Advantages of round table:

First of all, the round table makes people feel very happy and united, and it is not too angular and very warm. If the home decoration style is matched with that kind of ancient furniture, it can be matched with a round table. It will feel very matched and look very warm.

Disadvantages of round tables:

But there is also a bad thing, that is, if you eat a lot, it is difficult to eat the food on this kind of table, so generally speaking, this kind of table will be equipped with a turntable, and the cost of this kind of table is relatively high, and it also takes up more space.

3. Should I buy a round table or a square table?

1. Choose a round table if there are many people, and a square table if there are few people.

Our dining habit is to eat together, and each person who diners needs to pick up the same dish. A round table has a uniform distance from the edge to the center of the table, so if there are multiple people dining, everyone can pick up the dishes on the table. If it is a square table, it may be inconvenient for people sitting at the narrow edge to pick up the dishes. Therefore, if the number of people dining in a family exceeds 4, it is recommended to choose a round table; if the number of people dining is less than 4, it is more convenient to choose a square table.

2. Look at the structure of your home's restaurant

The choice of dining table should be determined according to the house type. If it is a rectangular house, it is recommended to choose a square table. If the dining room is relatively large and spacious, or if it is a square house, you can choose a round table. The whole space will look more harmonious.

3. What are the tips for choosing a dining table?

1. Function of the dining table

In addition to the tabletop, today's dining tables have developed many practical functions, such as retractable boards and shelves. The retractable board means that the dining table can be extended to accommodate more guests. If the dining room and kitchen are small, a shelf on the dining table can store a lot of items, which is a very practical function.

2. The size of the dining table

The size of the dining table is related to the spaciousness of the dining space. If it is a small or closed restaurant, you can choose a small dining table with a length and width of about 120×80 cm. If you have an open or semi-open restaurant with a wider visual sense, a medium-sized dining table of 160×80 cm can meet the needs of such space. If it is a large villa-style home, there are also tables up to 2 meters or 3 meters for you to choose.

3. The material of the dining table

As for the material of the table top, most of them are made of wood, which has a warm and thick texture. It is a good choice for those who want to create a warm and fresh feeling at home. As for other materials, there are metal, glass, marble or melamine board, which have cold, transparent or elegant textures respectively. You can choose according to your taste and needs. But no matter what material the table top is made of, the table legs are made of solid wood or steel pipes to have a certain degree of load-bearing capacity.
