The suitable number of seats around your dining table depends on a number of factors:
- The desired space to be able to dinner
- Dining room chairs with or without armrest
- The size of the dining table and the space all around
The desired space for dining
We recommend reserving 70 centimeters per person to sit comfortably at the table. A dining room chair is often 45-50 centimeters wide. Of course you also want to be able to hang your arms along the chair and you want to have some personal space. 70 centimeters is the ideal size for every person who wants to dine comfortably.
Do you opt for dining room chairs with or without armrests?
Do you want to reserve less than 70 centimeters for each person? That is also possible of course! We then recommend Dining room chairs without armrests to purchase. Dining room chairs without armrests save a lot of space. Perhaps in the end an extra chair fits your dining table!

The desired space around your dining table
When placing your dining table, also think of the space all around. It is very annoying if you have too little room when sitting and getting up. When the dining room table is parallel to the wall, we recommend that you reserve 60 centimeters around your dining room chair without a walking area. Do you want to have more walking space all around? Then take 120 centimeters into account.
Do you not have a lot of space around your dining table and chairs? Then consider one dining room bench. A dining room bench takes up less space and offers many seats. Ideal for a family with young children! The sofa can be practically placed against the wall without day your seating comfort is reduced.
