All about dinette sets

For casual, everyday dining, dinettes are more comfortable than a formal dining table. Diner furniture is available nowadays in a variety of styles. Another option, especially for small kitchens, is kitchen booth seating. Both seating options make for a more informal, cozy dining experience.

Dinette furniture

Choosing the appropriate kitchen dinette sets is very important as people spend most of their family time around the kitchen table. Apart from eating, dinette tables can also be used for homework or playing games. Choosing a dinette chair is also an important consideration – these are available in different styles.
Contemporary Made of either wood or metal (wicker is also an increasingly popular option), the contemporary look is what most people opt for. Round wood kitchen tables with swivel chairs to match make the perfect setting for family time.
Classic A classic dinette set incorporates more traditional designs with intricate patterns and is usually available in wood. One popular look is retro diner furniture, incorporating the look of the 1950s. For this classy, retro look, check Cola-red.com(Sets), U.K.’s leading supplier of retro-style diner furniture.

Kitchen booth seating

Kitchen booth seating makes optimum use of the available space in the kitchen and offers a comfortable and practical option. Home owners can opt for wooden benches, or go for the restaurant furniture booths, with upholstered seating. Based on the available space you may also decide to choose between L-shaped or C-shaped seating. There are a few things to take into consideration.

What to look out for
Considering that the table will be placed close to the seating, it might be better to opt for a table pedestal instead of table legs, for easier seating. If you entertain often, you might want to consider buying a table with a drop leaf which can be expanded to create extra space. Furthermore, in a small kitchen, consider using the space beneath the seating as extra storage. Make sure that seat cushions are thick and built of stain resistant material. Materials like vinyl are not only stain-resistant but are smooth enough to slide across.
Final words With homes getting smaller and space coming at a premium, investing in a sturdy kitchen booth or dinette is a good idea. Children will enjoy the restaurant style seating and will be able to use it for homework and playing, apart from having their meals there. The comfortable atmosphere created by these informal dining spaces will ensure that your family spends lots of quality time together.
