The 9 Best Dining Tables for Every Style

Our editors independently research, test, and recommend the best products; you can learn more about our review process here. We may receive commissions on purchases made from our chosen links.

Gone are the days when you needed to leave the house to find the dining table of your dreams. Whether you're shopping for a traditional farmhouse design or something more suited to your mid-century modern tastes, there are endless options just a click away. Before you start shopping, just make sure you measure your space, says interior decorator and author of Rental Style, Chelsey Brown.

Brown encourages shoppers to "Map out (on the floor) where the table will be going with painters tape. This will give you an idea of how much space the table you're eyeing will take up." Don't overlook quality, either. One way to do this is by always reading reviews first.

Interior designer Diana Weinstein, of DW Designs, points out that functionality and care are also key. For example, do you need it to expand? Where are the legs and how will your chairs fit? What does it need in terms of cleaning and maintenance? Does it need to be assembled? To simplify your shopping process, we've scoured the web and read hundreds of reviews to chisel our list down to the best of the best.

Here, the most beautiful dining tables available online.

The Floyd Table

Floyd is a direct-to-consumer furniture company that's all about making our lives easier. Instead of offering tons of style choices, they focus their efforts on developing one amazing no-brainer product in each category.

The Floyd Table is a great example of this. The versatile piece can serve as a desk or dining table for up to four people. Featuring a linoleum and birch wood top and powder-coated steel legs, the coolest thing about this table is that it's available in a bunch of different color combinations—including our favorite, blush and white.

Zinus Jen 47 Inch Dining Table

If you're on the hunt for a simple but refined mid-century modern table and you're on a small budget, stop looking and order this Zinus Jen dining table ASAP. Buyers are blown away by the statement this small and thrifty table makes in any space.

Zinus' dining table is ideal for small dining rooms and even NYC-sized kitchens, plus it can fit a family of four. Reviewers attest to the fact that it's easy to assemble and far surpassed their expectations. It's also available in a walnut finish (for a little extra money), but the natural hue is mid-century to the bone.

Rivet Industrial Mid-Century Modern Hairpin Dining Table

Rivet, Amazon's mid-century inspired design brand, continues to drop jaws with their distinct home furnishings. This table—a little bit retro, a little bit industrial—can function as a dining table or even a desk. A hardwood top with a walnut finish floats on black metal hairpin legs.

Reviewers attest that the table is solidly built and quite easy to assemble—taking less than 20 minutes. If you're just as obsessed with the design as we are, you can also add a matching coffee table, side table, or console to fully integrate your living space.

Rove Concepts Tulip Table

While most of us would kill for an original Knoll Saarinen Tulip Table (view on Knoll), unfortunately, it isn't always in the budget. Luckily, this premium reproduction—courtesy of Rove Concepts—is an affordable alternative.

The trademark single-pedestal tulip base is made from strong cast aluminum which supports a heavy, satin-finished lacquer top. While the table is the definition of mid-century design, it can work in pretty much every aesthetic so long as you put thought into the chairs you pair it with. If you do want to stay true to Sarrinen's vision, order up the matching tulip chairs.

Article Oval Dining Table

An oval dining table is a great compromise between square and round options, and it's an eye-catching way to shape up a boxy space. This mid-century table from Article pairs sculptural rubberwood legs with a veneered, starburst-style top that delivers just the retro glamour we're after.

The table is built to fit four to six people, but reviewers note that it's generously sized and could really fit more. Many people are also quick to note that it doesn't scratch or stain easily.

Fortunato Table

Wayfair's Fortunato Dining Table is just the multifunctional touch your farmhouse-style home needs. Since it's extendable, it's a great option for those with smaller dining spaces who only need extra seating on special occasions.

The classic table features an extra leaf which transforms it from a dining space for six to seating for eight in a matter of minutes. It's crafted from solid walnut and finished with a natural grain that lends it an almost vintage feel.

CB2 Stone Table Round

We're mildly obsessed with CB2's stone collection which, along with a side table and coffee table, includes this stunning dining table. Why, you ask? Well, we've seen few options more unique.

Designed by Caleb Zipperer, this vintage-inspired piece creatively layers stone, brass, and glass. While function is always the main purpose of a dining table, this dimensional piece basically doubles as an art installation.

Pottery Barn Matteo Extendable Dining Table

If you already have a set of show-stopping chairs that you'd like to be the focal point of your space, opting for a simple and straightforward table is the way to go. This high-quality, classically designed wood table from Pottery Barn is pretty much a blank slate for your dining room.

The Matteo Extendable Dining Table features a weathered, distressed finish that delivers a subtle warmth and character that won't overwhelm your space. It also features a butterfly leaf which can transform the six-person table to an eight-person table in an instant.

Anthropologie Anya Travertine Dining Table

One of the more unique dining tables we've ever seen, Anthropologie's Anya features a smooth travertine top set above cylindrical hardwood legs. It has a truly organic feel to it, so it'll add instant visual interest to your space without overwhelming your existing decor.

At 29.5 x 48 inches, the Anya is small enough for a compact dining space, but big enough to accommodate four to six people. We suggest pairing it with a statement-making upholstered chair.

Everything You Need to Know About Blue Light

Photo Courtesy: Marvel Studios/The Walt Disney Studios/IMDb

For beach-goers, experts always recommend a healthy coating of sunscreen to protect the skin from those pesky ultraviolet (UV) rays. But sunlight contains more than just UV light. In fact, it's made up of red, green, yellow, blue and orange light rays, which combine to create "white light" (a.k.a. sunlight). If you haven't sat through a high school chemistry class in a while, no worries. We'll break down the important stuff — without getting too scientific.

As the name suggests, visible light can be seen by the human eye, and each ray reflects a particular color. The color of a given ray depends on said ray's wavelength (see the graphic below) — or the distance between successive crests of a wave. (Side note: This means that objects get their colors through the wavelength of the light that is reflected from them. Trust us — don't think too hard about it. Things get trippy.)

Another important relationship to note is that of wavelengths and energy: The longer the distance between waves, the less energy a ray has to offer. Think of it this way — if the wave crests are farther apart, they're a bit lackadaisical, but if the crests come in rapid succession, there's a frenzy of energy there. All of this means rays on the red end of the visible light spectrum have longer wavelengths and less energy, whereas rays on the blue end have shorter wavelengths and more energy.

UV rays, which aren't on the visible light spectrum, surpass blue light in terms of how much energy they contain. That incredible amount of energy is how those rays are able to create a physical change, like tanning (or burning) one's skin. In moderation ultraviolet radiation can be good for us (think vitamin D!), but, on the other hand, it can also produce some devastating effects (think sunburn and snow blindness!).

How Does Blue Light Impact One's Health?

But what about blue light — these visible rays that are a few notches below harmful UV rays? Well, approximately one-third of all visible light is considered high-energy visible (HEV) blue light. Blue light is literally why the sky appears blue: These rays scatter more easily than other visible rays of light when they strike the atmosphere's air and water molecules — and all that scattering makes the sky that vibrant blue.

There's no escaping it, especially because daylight is our main source of blue light. But it's not all bad: Experiencing blue light during the daytime helps regulate one's circadian rhythms, makes one more alert, elevates cognitive function, promotes good recall and is even used in light therapy to treat seasonal affective disorder (SAD). However, human-made objects — including LED lights and display screens on flat-screen TVs, computers and smartphones — emit blue light too. Although these devices only emit a fraction of the blue light the sun emits, researchers and doctors have still voiced concerns about patients' excessive screen time in recent years.

Perhaps surprisingly, the human eye is pretty great at protecting the retina from UV rays, but blue light is a different story. Virtually all of it penetrates the light-sensitive retina, causing damage that approximates macular degeneration — a condition that can lead to vision loss.

In addition to potentially harming your eyes over time, blue light can also lead to eye strain. If you've ever ended up with a wicked headache after staring intensely at an Excel spreadsheet for hours, you're probably familiar with that particular discomfort. When we noted how blue light contributes to the sky looking blue, we mentioned that this is so because of how blue light scatters. Well, according to All About Vision, this same scattering of the blue light that emanates from screens makes for "unfocused visual 'noise' [that] reduces contrast and can contribute to digital eye strain."

If you don't suffer from eye strain due to increased exposure to blue light, these inescapable rays may still have adverse effects on your health. Any sort of light — regardless of where it falls on the spectrum — can suppress the human body's ability to release melatonin, the hormone that regulates sleep cycles. However, it's thought that blue light quashes melatonin secretion even more than other hues do. Researchers at Harvard University compared the effects of blue and green light exposure and found that "blue light suppresses melatonin [secretion] for about twice as long as the green light and shifted circadian rhythms by twice as much."

It's a Blue, Blue World

BluTech, a company that manufactures special blue light-filtering lenses, reports that "43% of adults have a job that requires prolonged use of a tablet or computer" — and that's just while said adults are on the clock. Factor in all that time we spend online, texting and marathoning Netflix, and adults spend roughly 12 hours a day looking at screens and taking in blue light. So, how can you mitigate the harmful effects of prolonged exposure to blue light?

Photo Courtesy: @felixgrays/Twitter

Well, these blue light-filtering lenses are becoming all the rage. Although not as ubiquitous as Away suitcases or Blue Apron commercials, you've probably heard commercials for blue light-filtering specs from Felix Gray or Warby Parker on your favorite podcast or radio talk show. Felix Gray glasses, for example, pride themselves on having a blue light-filtering material embedded inside, which the company says will curb eye strain, headaches and sleep disruption.

If you're not into the glasses route, experts recommend taking screen breaks, both at work and at home; keeping screens clean to reduce glare and further eye strain; changing your abrasive white display background to something less bright; blinking more often; and avoiding screens for at least 30 minutes to an hour before bed because screens stimulate your brain. Maybe it's time to trade that fancy blue light-emitting tablet for a Kindle Paperwhite, or, you know, a good old-fashioned book.

What Paint Should I Use for Wood?

Photo Courtesy: eclipse_images/E+/Getty Images

From the cabinets in your kitchen to a piece of furniture to a fun craft, there are plenty of wood items you can paint. And one of the best things about wood is that it accepts a variety of paints well, whether you opt for something that's acrylic or an oil-based formula. Painting wood is an easy way to change its look and give it some new personality, but it's not always clear what paint to use for different projects and applications. Here's what you need to know about the right paint to use for wood.

What's Your Project?

First, it's essential to figure out the nature of your project, meaning you'll need to determine not only what you're painting but also where it's located or going to be used. Are you painting shingles on the exterior of your home? Or are you painting an outdoor deck that'll see a lot of foot traffic? How about kitchen cabinets that people will touch often, or a bathroom shelf that'll be exposed to high humidity from the shower?

Knowing things like whether or not it's going to get wet, how often someone's going to use it or touch it and what overall effect or look you want to achieve are all essential for determining what paint you should use for the project. Wood accepts a very wide range of paints and stains, but each of those can have differing levels of durability and protection. Some paints are better than others in certain situations, and you'll need to know your particular situation before you make your choice.

Paint Types and Formulas

The great thing about wood is that, as long as you apply primer to it in most cases, any type of paint works well on it, depending on what function you need your project to serve. Generally speaking, paints to use on wood are water-based or oil-based. Acrylic and latex are the two most common types of water-based paints, while oil-based paints fall into two categories: synthetic or natural. Each of these is better than others for specific applications.

Latex paint is quick-drying, easy to clean and better for the environment than other types. It's also less likely to discolor over time. However, it's not the most durable choice, as it can scratch and chip easily. It's best for indoor wood items or surfaces that you won't touch or use very often, such as rarely used furniture, storage cabinet doors, stair spindles and picture frames. Latex paint is often the most affordable type.

Acrylic paint is ideal for home exteriors, although you can also use oil-based paint here. If the exterior is made up of different materials, such as stone and wood, you're better off choosing acrylic. Materials like stone and masonry need breathable paint to allow moisture and water vapor to pass through, and oil-based paint prevents this. Acrylic craft paints are also widely available and easy to use and clean up if you're doing a simple DIY craft project using wood.

Synthetic oil paint, which is also called alkyd, is the best choice for applications where you need a lot more durability. Think everyday furniture that'll get used and jostled often, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, interior trims like baseboards and door frames that'll get kicked and touched often, and flooring indoors and out. Oil-based paints are more rigid than flexible, water-based types so they're less likely to chip — even when people are walking on them — and they're also easier to wash clean because of this.

Natural oil paint, called linseed, is best for craft projects on which you want to create a warm, aged patina. It's typically much more expensive than the synthetic variety, which is why it's best for smaller projects.

Prepping for the Project

To help the paint adhere well and to ensure the finish looks its best when everything is dry, it's important to prep your wood to get it ready. If you're painting an exterior surface or item, give everything a thorough wash to make sure there isn't any dirt, dust, moss or algae, all of which can keep the paint from sticking to the surface. If you're painting wood deck furniture, a table or something else for the outdoors that people will touch frequently, it's a wise idea to sand it before painting to give the paint something smooth to adhere to. Splinters and cracks can also keep the finished product from looking its best, and they're uncomfortable to sit on. Let the surface or or item dry out fully before applying the paint, and give it a few days to dry and start curing before you use it. It's best to do outdoor wood-painting projects while the weather is nice.

If you're repainting an interior surface or furniture such as kitchen cabinetry or a dresser, take a look at the existing paint or finish. If the item's current paint isn't chipped, cracked or bubbling, you can usually paint right over it; just sand the wood areas briefly to give the surface more texture for the paint to stick to. If you don't need to remove cabinet paint, it's still a good idea to clean the doors with a heavy-duty solution like TSP to eliminate all traces of grease and grime. If you do need to remove a little bit of paint, such as a few chipped areas, you can sand them down. However, you may need to use paint stripper for items with paint that's very damaged. This is a product that softens the old paint so you can scrape and wipe it all off.

A word of caution here: If your cabinets or other painted home surfaces were last done in the 1970s or earlier, they may contain lead-based paint. If you use a testing kit and determine there's lead in your paint, call the National Lead Information Center or your local health department to find out how to proceed.
