Dining Tables with Storage

Dining tables with storage: shelves, drawers, and compartments

A dining table with storage adds a place to keep things at the table itself, so the extension leaf, table linens, or serving pieces have a home instead of a closet across the room. On this page the modifier is the storage, and every one of these eight tables also extends, so you gain both a place to stow the leaf and the length it adds. Prices start at $415.

The storage takes a few forms, and it helps to know which each table has. Three round tables carry an open lower storage shelf under the top, handy for baskets or the removable leaf. Two oval tables have a hidden or built-in compartment worked into the base or apron. One uses a storage pedestal that opens to hold the leaf, and one round model on a metal base pairs a marble-look top with a lower shelf. So the choice is between an open shelf you can reach any time and a closed compartment that keeps clutter out of sight.

Because every table extends, the storage often solves the classic problem of where to keep the leaf when the table is closed. Leaves drop into the middle or fold as an oval insert, taking each table from a compact everyday size up to a longer setting for guests. Seating runs from 4 up to 8, at a standard height near 29.5 to 30.5 inches.

Materials include solid wood, and one marble-look top on a metal base, in light oak, walnut, medium grey, black, and espresso. Styles lean modern, farmhouse, and pedestal. A table with storage suits a smaller dining room or an open-plan kitchen where you want to seat more people at short notice and keep the extra leaf and table linens close by.

Whether you want an open shelf for easy reach or a hidden compartment for a tidy look, there is a storage table here starting at $415. Every order ships free with delivery in 5 to 7 days.
