Traditional dining tables and chairs may be the go-to furniture option for most homeowners, but there are other alternatives when it comes to finding something that complements your individual style and decor. One such choice is a counter height dining set - an excellent way to utilize space more effectively in multiple rooms and spaces.
Once you know your intended use for the counter height table and chairs, it will be easier to select an ideal shape, size and material combination for your home.
Once you know how tall you want the table to be, compare that height against your current decor and furniture. A standard dining table usually stands 28-30 inches while counter height tables range between 34-36 inches in height while pub or bar tables tend to stand 40-42 inches high.
Your table's material and finish can have an enormous effect on its overall aesthetic and feel in your home, so take this into consideration before purchasing one. A metal or glass table might fit with modern decor while wood might offer more traditional or formal tones. Also remember that counter or pub height tables require matching chairs or stools, so think carefully about your personal taste when matching these together.
