Looking for a dining table- having a hard time searching!

11 years ago

Hi- I am hoping there are some internet savvy searchers out there! I have a tall order for a dining table. I know it is a tall order, and I cannot seem to find what I am looking for anywhere!

I like rustic, industrial and transitional furniture.

I am looking for an extendable wood table. Not a drop leaf.

It has to start at 50"- can't be any bigger than that without leaf. With leaf, it can go up to any size, ideally to seat 10-12.

I would like it to be wood, preferably a light to medium or even gray/driftwood tone, and even dark is OK, but not cherry or red-toned.

Because of space issues, I'd prefer trestle or pedestal type legs so people aren't forever bumping their legs.

My absolute top of budget is $1,000, but would prefer to keep it around $800 if possible.

I don't want a "set". Just a table.

THANK YOU!!

When I first started reading your specifications I thought I could help you, but your budget is really low. Have you checked out Ikea? Their prices are good and their stuff has some great style.

Yeah, something in this lineup has to give. Cutting edge style, complicated dimensional specifications, and budget price -- you can probably get two of those three...

I know, I know...it's nearly impossible. I said it is a tall order :) but I misspoke and I actually have 60 inches, not 50. DUH. And I don't know how to edit my OP.

Still, I know that is small, and unfortunately, I cannot make my dining room larger and I can't spend 3 grand on a table, and who wants to spend even $1,000 on a table they hate? I have gotten so many great ideas and input from Houzz so I thought I'd give it a shot. I found one on hayneedle.com that looks promising. Anyone have any experience with hayneedle?

Have gotten Adirondack chairs from hayneedle, and they seemed decent -- lot of assembly required, and the painted items didn't have even coating, but wood and joins seemed solid. Worth a shot if you found your unicorn. :)
