Round Dining Table 6 Persons - Size Advice
Round Dining Table 6 People — Cozy Without a Head
A round dining table for 6 people is the coziest choice for a family or regular guests. No head of the table, no inferior corner seats — everyone sits equally and conversation flows naturally. The round shape also takes up less floor space than you might think: a table of 150-160 cm is sufficient for 6 people. At Industrial Home, you can set the exact size and finish yourself.
Which Diameter for 6 People?
| Diameter | Seating | Space needed | Ideal for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 120 cm | 4-5 | min. 270×270 cm | Tight for 6 |
| 140 cm | 5-6 | min. 290×290 cm | 6 people, comfortable |
| 160 cm | 6-7 | min. 310×310 cm | Most popular choice for 6 |
| 180 cm | 7-8 | min. 330×330 cm | Spacious for 6, hospitable |
Allow at least 75 cm of free space around the table's edge on all sides.

Why Round and Not Oval for 6 People?
- Round — maximum equality, perfect contact, smaller footprint than oval
- Oval — fits better in elongated spaces, more seating for the same length
- Danish oval — the golden mean: flattened ends for extra seating
For a square or light room, round is the strongest choice. For an elongated living room or open kitchen, choose oval.

- Standard table height: 75-78 cm. Combine with chairs of 43-47 cm seat height.
- Width: at least 80 cm for comfortable seating opposite each other, 90-100 cm is ideal.
- Per person: allow 60-70 cm of table length per person — 70 cm provides elbow room.
How much space do I need for a 160 cm round table?
You need a dining area of at least 310×310 cm. Allow 75 cm of free space around the table's edge so chairs can slide back.
Can a round dining table be extendable?
Yes. We offer an extendable round dining table that expands from 120 cm to 160 cm. Ideal if you normally dine with 4 people but regularly have guests.
Which base is suitable for a round dining table for 6?
A central pedestal base (Sol) provides the most legroom and allows chairs to slide around easily. Four individual legs also work but can limit movement space at the edge.
What is the difference between round and straight-round?
A regular round table is perfectly circular. A straight-round table has a slight flattening on two sides — more oval-like. This provides a bit more seating space on the sides.
