You need a kitchen table that works as hard as you do and this Carson end extension table does just that. The core table is a classic table with corner post legs and a skirt that gives the table its solid design. This table is perfect for all your kitchen activities like sharing meals, doing homework, or crafting. For those special occasions like birthdays or other holidays, add the leaves to make room for a few more.

This table is an end extension table which means that you add a leaf to each end. Without the leaves, the table looks and functions as a standard table which would be used as an everyday table. When the table extends you will see the rails and notice that they are not stained. This helps to keep the slides moving smoothly. With an end extension table, the grain on the core table runs lengthwise and on the leaves it runs widthwise for a breadboard effect. There may be a bit of a lip where the leaves meet the table top.

The key characteristics of this design are the corner post legs with the skirt. This structure provides a lot of strength and stability. With the legs tucked into the corners you can seat people as you like along the sides, giving lots of room for chair legs and people's legs. While this design does make it difficult to use the corners for seating, overall it gives you a lot of flexibility on how to use the table. On the Carson End Extension table we strongly recommend 24" leaves to give the person sitting at the leaf enough space without crowding them into the post leg. Other design details include a 6/4" thick table top with a traditional square Seymour edge.

Important Notes:

All of our tables are made from solid hardwood. As a natural product, each piece of wood has its own uniqueness.

Natural wood has variation in the grain.
Solid wood will expand and contract in different climates
Most of our walnut has sap wood, which introduces some variance in color into the wood

For us, these properties make these tables more interesting. If you have any questions, please reach out.
