Excellent for 6, NOT for 8 If you are about to buy this dining table [6/8 Seater Oval Dining Table, Blutante], consider this: We love the oval shape, but are frustrated by the very tight space between the table legs. Unless you are small and have narrow chairs, you will find yourself in a squeeze. We have now reassembled the table legs "one position over" so each table leg is now only attached with only two screws instead of four. However, as long as you are careful, the weight of the table will keep everything in place. This provides an additional 9 cm space per table leg, almost 20 cm of additional space for the two people (on each side), seated much more comfortably, also offering a comfortable space at the end of the table for 2 additional guests. As we've validated this in daily use, I have drilled and inserted additional threaded screws* to make the change permanent, but you can easily skip this last step. Ideally, the vendor should substantiate its 6/8 positioning by installing those extra threads for all new tables. *) To fix it yourself, search for this online: Wood Furniture Hex Socket Nut Inserts (M6 * 17mm)
