We want a narrow 4 seater table that grows to seat 6 or 8. I’m leaning towards lighter wood like white oak to keep the space light but add warmth and also because our living room is a little teak heavy ! I also want narrow legs to allow as much light and space as possible to give the appearance of more room.

Saw this one in person, the mechanism is so smooth you can move it with one finger. Unfortunately it’s too wide for our space (devastating).

BoConcept // Milano Table (link here)

Like this one but again too wide… and the walnut is probably too dark for our apartment.

West Elm // Parker Dining Table (link here)

This one is definitely in the running but want to see it in person, as I can’t quite figure out from the photos how the leaves work and the exact colour of the wood.

Gus Modern // Portage Table (link here)

This table is perfect for us… the unattainable 30” wide extending table in white oak. Please ship to Canada!! Call me ;)

Also hunting on ebay, craigslist and the internets at large…. if you have any tips please send me a note!
