How to Choose a Kitchen Table Top

Choosing Kitchen tops – Always keep in mind to balance look with functionality. Consider the size, shape and care of a surface to find one that fits your taste and lifestyle.

Dark wood kitchen islands are rustic, and pair perfectly with 5 matching stools for maximum triangle productivity and additional room for family dinners or small family parties.

Material and Aesthetics
You can choose your counter top to add personality and personality to a room, from wood and glass countertops that are warm to stone-effect countertops such as Dolmen Pro Grigio Flamed Porphyry that are ultra-modern.

Kitchen table tops can also be all different shapes and sizes depending on the space you have. You can have a round or oval table that flows more in a small kitchen and a rectangular table that runs longer. High top table for eating or working and bar stool for elegant look.

Durability and easy upkeep must also be a consideration while shopping for a kitchen table top. Nature’s natural stone such as granite can be known for being resistant to heat and stains; quartz stone (which is also made in the same manner), can be found in a low-cost form.

Color and Finishes
Whether your table top is wood or stone, its finish and color should match with the rest of the kitchen decor. Darker shades can be dramatic and lighter shades make the space seem brighter.

Pick a table top finish that goes with your kitchen décor and reflects light to light up the room. The options from glossy to matte on the table top are wide.

There is a grey color that can be used in place of blues. Mix & match grey to be your own unique style without being boring.

Shape and Size
The main thing when you choose a table size is, get one that will fit in your space. Aim for 24 inches between everyone around the table so everyone has space to move and enjoy themselves.

Rectangular tables can be used in small spaces and are much more flexible when it comes to seating compared to other shapes that can fit more chairs than their square brothers. Options for leaves to extend your table for larger events.

Tables on the top are the most convivial ones, you can put extra seats there without over-filling the table. If you want to get as stable as possible, you may want to choose pedestal or trestle bases rather than legs (the heavier it is, the more likely it is to fall over!) “Pourny advises.

Functionality
You want the kitchen table top to match your taste and its intended use. If, for example, you plan to be more than just dining at your table, counter-height tables work in unison with the rest of your countertops for food preparation. Expandable tabletops are more versatile for daily eating and entertaining, some even have options to facilitate certain kitchen tasks without having to mess around with cooking space. Ergonomic comfort also matters – standard dining tables are about 30 inches off the ground for movement.
