A dining table and chair sets can be a substantial investment in your home and lifestyle. The average dining set only lasts on average 5-10 years. Imagine the lifetime cost of a new set; also, imagine how shabby your space might look with a set that’s just a few years away from junk status. Recent studies have found that 30% of greenhouse gasses are attributed to furniture replacement's consumer cycle. 

Now you're probably wondering how you might save money without losing quality. Finding the correct balance between quality and cost-cutting is crucial. Investing in a high-quality product that will last a long time will pay off in the long-term. As Benjamin Franklin once said “ The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten”

The dining room has recently become an even more important aspect of daily life. It's not just where we have some of our best talks and eat our food, but it's also where we work from home and go to school. Our dining tables appear to be doing far more than ever before.

Buying a Dining Room Set on a Budget

You might want to give your dining room a total makeover, but you're worried about your budget. Don't worry; upgrading your dining room table and chairs without breaking the bank is achievable. Dinner tables are where the fondest memories are built. It is critical to make an informed decision and ensure that the dining table is durable and pleasant for everyone. Perhaps the clothes haul, and a new dining set are still possible?

Traditional Style

Dining tables in the traditional style will make your dining room feel warm and inviting. Many tables can be expanded to suit larger family gatherings or guests. This will save you money in the long term, and you won't have to upgrade to a larger table if your family grows. We often find that simply buying a larger table without an expanding leaf is more economical, and often, families grow into the large size tables anyhow. We recommend considering Walnut wood for your traditional home dining table; classic walnut tones appeal to traditional styles and tastefully style a traditional style interior. 

Rustic

Natural materials and the grain of wood are prominent in rustic decor. It's the ideal setting for entertaining guests or holding family dinners. Natural wood grain always stays in style, and a quality table will always fit your latest decor tastes. Additionally, interior designers often recommend solid wood as a great way to co-ordinate with any color paint. For a rustic look, we recommend our white oak wood options. The deep texture and coarse grain pattern is perfect for that rustic home look. 

Contemporary

We've got you covered if you want a more contemporary look; consider Maple or Cherry wood for your Contemporary dining table look. The clean, silky grain of maple and cherry compliments most contemporary styled interiors. One of our most popular tables is our Strata Glass top dining table.  This small and adaptable dining table goes well with a selection of our dining chairs.

Eclectic

By mixing and matching your dining room furniture, you can make your dining room stand out. If you buy four matching dining chairs, you can easily buy a different style chair for the ends of your dining set when you need it later. Or simply find a variety of chairs that you love; an added benefit is that there will always be a nice fitting chair for all your different guests. 

Accessorize

Accessorizing is another fantastic method for freshening your dining set. A unique or colorful runner may instantly change your dining table. A modest vase with fresh flowers might be as simple as a vase with fresh flowers. Changing tableware and placemats will give your table a new look without breaking the bank.

Save Space and Money

A dining bench is a simple and stylish solution if you're looking for another way to save money on a dining set. Dining benches will add style to your dining room while saving space and money. Is there anything that they can't accomplish?

There is a large selection of dining sets on a budget, so whether you have purchased your first home, are renting an apartment, or are starting a family, you can accomplish any appearance. A dining set that will last for years does not have to be expensive. Your dining set will look after you and keep all of your secrets safe. It's a good thing they don't have ears.
