A pedestal base is the reason to buy a round table rather than a rectangular one in a small room. With four corner legs, every chair has a leg to negotiate and at least one person ends up straddling one; with a central pedestal there is nothing at the perimeter at all, so chairs slide right under and people sit anywhere they like. That freedom is what makes a 47-inch table comfortably seat six when the arithmetic says five. Extended to 63 inches the same principle holds, and the two-tier shelf keeps the top clear.

How it lives in the room

Buy chairs that tuck

A pedestal table rewards chairs with a low back and no arms, because they disappear under the top entirely. Armchairs at a pedestal table give back all the floor space the base just saved you.

Seat an odd number

Round tables have no head. Five or seven people fit as naturally as four or six, which is the other quiet advantage over a rectangle — nobody is ever seated at a corner.

Level the pedestal

Everything rests on one point of contact with the floor. If the table rocks, the fault is almost always the floor rather than the base — a thin shim under the offending foot fixes it permanently.

Before you order

A pedestal supports weight through the centre. Sitting or leaning heavily on the extended edge of the open table is the one load it is not designed for.
