Struggling to decide between a round or rectangular table for your home? It’s a difficult decision to make, but in this article, we hope to make things easier by outlining some key considerations when choosing between a round or rectangle table.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Consider the shape<\/span><\/h3>\n

The biggest difference between a round and rectangular table is the shape. There are a lot of top brands that offer both shapes, such as Stickley. Where the table will go plays a large part in your choice too – for example, a round Stickley dining table might not fit in a particularly narrow space.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To find the best solution for you, try to align the proportions and shape of the table with the room and space it will inhabit. For a square room, look to use a round table. Long rooms, however, benefit from a rectangular table because it matches the proportions of the room better.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Think about space<\/span><\/h3>\n

Round dining tables can make a room appear more spacious due to the lack of corners, which can be useful for smaller spaces. With that said, you do need to factor in some extra space for people to sit around a round table. A good guideline is to give yourself about a meter of additional space to accommodate an occupied table.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rectangular tables are a bit more flexible in this regard. They can run flush to walls if you need to save space or bring it to the center of a room if you want to use all sides of the dining table. Ultimately, your choice here depends on the space the table inhabits.<\/span><\/p>\n

Social considerations<\/span><\/h3>\n

Dining tables are great for social gatherings, with Stickley Furniture designing tables built for get-togethers. Round tables offer a more intimate option for social dining because there’s equal spacing between everyone. That means there aren’t people talking across the table from afar.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rectangular tables do have their own benefits when it comes to social considerations, though. They offer more table room, which is helpful if you’re preparing food for lots of people as you’ve got additional space to place dishes.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So is round or rectangular better?<\/span><\/h3>\n

There isn’t a good answer because it depends on how the table will be used and the space you intend to place it in. Thankfully, there are lots of high-quality table options from top brands such as Stickley Furniture to help you find the right one for your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n
