An extension table is a table whose length may be increased by inserting a leaf or leaves. The top is divided into two halves that, along with their legs, may be separated from each other. The insertion rests on an understructure connected to both halves, that is expandable, using either sliding elements or hinged, accordion-like bracing.
Try the Winsome Pulman Table
If you need extra table space, the Pulman Extension Table is a reliable choice. Made of durable solid wood, it can be used in various settings. It’s perfect for dining with family and friends, playing games or having snacks in the den, or even spreading out paperwork in your home office. The table can be extended by pulling out two leaves that are supported by cross bars. Alternatively, you can retract the leaves into the table’s body to create a smaller footprint. The rich walnut finish gives the table a sleek look.
