Benefits

Dining folding models are distinguished by their dimensions and shapes, the way of folding and additional functionality, but they have one thing in common - the presence of undeniable advantages.

The smallest folding table seats from two to four people, that is, it is quite useful for a standard small family and their small-sized dwelling.

Unassembled, a compact piece of kitchen furniture turns into something more, is able to place guests around it - relatives and friends.

A folding piece of furniture can be a very compact part of the kitchen-dining room or can be located on a wide space of the kitchen zone, having an additional expansion function.

By the way, a folding type of dining furniture will be appropriate for every family and any apartment or house, as it can accommodate more guests.

A non-folding type of furniture deprives guests of the opportunity to expand the dining table, a compact and small item will help in solving the problem of gathering guests at one large table.

Small round and triangular tables look appropriate in the interior of even a spacious kitchen, if only a couple of people live in the apartment or house, and they do not need a huge dining space.

There are original design solutions for kitchen furniture - small oval or round for a larger kitchen and rectangular or square for a less wide space.

The functionality of small-sized furniture for the kitchen is not limited to using it only in the dining area, the table is easy to place in the living room at the arrival of guests.

It is amazing how robust in design small tables for lunch.

In addition to countertops and legs, functional and thoughtful pieces of furniture can have internal drawers and shelves for storing kitchen utensils and household tools.

You can make a folding table for the kitchen with your own hands from the windowsill and improvised tools, which we will talk about in one of the sections of this article: we collect a unique table at home.

Determine the form

The shape of a folding piece of furniture is determined depending on the layout of the kitchen, its size, calculated in square meters.

The oval shape of the table will become appropriate for a spacious kitchen, since it allows you to place an unlimited number of guests around you, conditionally. The size of the piece of furniture determines the number of people sitting, for example, for a standard model of an average size of 80x120 cm, 4-6-8 people can fit.

A large oval table for the kitchen will be a real find for the "heart" of any home, as it will allow you to invite countless guests and easily place them. The oval shape of a kitchen piece of furniture has unique advantages:

• The absence of sharp corners and, as a result, the presence of security appropriate for a house or apartment with children.
• Behind the oval worktop and its base for the kitchen can accommodate a larger number of people than at the table of square or rectangular shape.
• An oval as a form is ideal for completing a classic kitchen interior, and in a modern interior (minimalism, high-tech) it may seem inappropriate for design.

We assign a semi-oval large piece of furniture to a variety of oval designs for the kitchen, a similar model has one right angle for attaching it to the wall of the room, its opposite part is rounded. Semi-oval models can have full legs (4 pieces) or only 2 for the possibility of attaching the “straight” side to the wall or window sill.

A square piece of furniture will be appropriate in a small kitchen, which is important to maintain patency and create a dining area. It is better to install the square element against the wall and move it away if necessary - gathering guests.

An unusual solution will be a triangular table in the kitchen space, it will require a spacious room or its own small size. Triangular furniture will be appropriate to use not only in the kitchen, but also in the living room or bedroom. It is advisable to choose narrow models of furniture for the kitchen with a small elongated kitchen of a narrow plan. The console can also act as a countertop in the dining area and give the interior originality.

We deal with the size

The size of the kitchen product is the most important measure when choosing furniture, it is necessary to take into account the fact that the table does not interfere with the free movement of the room and be comfortable for eating and placing necessary items on it.

According to the rule of choosing the size, for one family member or living in the house, 60x40 cm of table space (width and depth) is necessary, it is also worth considering 20 cm to place additional devices and products (spices, decorative vase, set of oils, napkin holder) on the surface . For example, for one resident, a square or rectangular piece of furniture with a size of 60x60, 50x70, 70x70 cm, 570x500 mm with the possibility of expansion for guests is enough, for a family of 2 people a table with dimensions 60x90, 60x80, 70x100, 70x90, 80x80 cm and a built-in folding mechanism.

The following dimensions are standard parameters of a rectangular dining table: a width of 80 cm and a length of 100-120 cm.The width of a sliding table plays an important role and is selected depending on the quadrature of the kitchen itself, the wider the table, the more space it will occupy and the more dishes will fit.

The size of a standard rectangular piece of furniture for 4 people increases by 60-80 cm, or allows you to accommodate 2-4 people more. In general, the rectangular model is considered the most compact and roomy at the same time, it is well suited for any kitchen interior from classic to modern: for a family of 4 people, a model with conditional parameters of 150x90 cm + 2 seats due to disassembly of the structure will fit, at a table 200x100 cm will fit 6- 8 people, 260x110 cm - up to 10 people, 320x110 - up to 12 people.

When choosing the dimensions of the furniture, it is important to take into account the quadrature of the room and to prevent clutter of free space - the passage between the table and the kitchen should not be less than one meter. In a small kitchen, book models or glass types with a small enlargement area are ideal.

Advantages and disadvantages

Looking closely at the dining table for the kitchen of the type in question, some points should be taken into account.

It is important that this element of furniture does not take up a lot of space in the room, but at the same time has such a capacity that it can put the necessary number of cups and plates on it, as well as put a lot of people.

To meet these requirements, for the kitchen should choose a folding table. If desired, it can easily be transformed into a model with a larger width.
