Not a month goes by that I am not asked about this table and chairs, sadly I can't respond to all so I am writing this for ease!
I must say, having bought over 40 dining sets for styling at work, I now find it easier to source them but in the beginning it was tough so I understand the struggle and why a recommendation is great. Where most people go wrong is size. I find a 120cm table ideal for four and this table hits that spot. Another place for error is not double checking the arms can fit under the table. This means your chairs take up a lot space unnecessarily and it can be a nightmare to live with, it can also lead to wear on the arms. These chairs slot under the table perfectly.
I usually buy chairs and tables separately for two reasons: rare to find a nice set but also, when styling the hunt is the best part so its more of a thrill match up a chair and table yourself.Are they the best made table and chairs ever? No. The table is hardy, but not solid wood. The legs are metal which I do like as they are more durable long term. The chair is metal with a paper twine seat which I did actually really like as both wear well but also look polished long term. Other compositions, when not solid wood can look worn after a year or two. Both are super easy to build and the fittings are sturdy.
If you're after something that gets light use, they are ideal if they match your budget and taste. I have been through MANY different tables and chairs and these are up there with my fave.
I write a lot about how to buy home furnishings in my second book Decor Galore. If you love to buy well, she's for you!
The chairs come in three colour options but I would be mindful here. The straw coloured bases can get stained by things like new denim, spills and general use so consider this if you want a long life with them. As it is a paper twine, you can't really scrub them. One as an occasion chair in the corner of a bedroom would be cute too and less likely to stain. Like every miserable bitch I usually just always go for black.
