Extension Tables from Room & Board

111008oslo1.jpgIf you've got the kind of dining space that doesn't require you to rely on a kitchen bar (which can be easier than it seems), an extension table allows for the kind of flexibility that space-savers cherish - regardless of how much room you've actually got. Here are a few favorite extensions available from Room & Board:

I'd love some suggestions for a round extension table, similar to the first picture... but more affordable! Dark espresso brown, and under $400... does this exist?

sweetchiceventschicago- ikea makes a round extension table- called "bjursta" for $249

http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20116778

i have the large rectangle bjursta table in an oak veneer- i actually got it used from craigslist (chicago) and i love it. its pretty solid, everything wipes off really easily, its really easy to extend and add the leaves, and once the leaves are added i barely notice the seams. i was really surprised by the quality!

you could check craigslist out for them too

Thanks for the recommendation, erinpearce!

I would love some non-ikea suggestions as well, if anyone has any!

SweetChic - I recently purchased Crate&Barrel's dark brown round extension table off craigslist for $200, which is less than IKEA's, and I would imagine is sturdier.

Question: I already own Room and Board's now-discontinued Boxy chairs in walnut. Moving into a new place where the floors are really dark espresso, kitchen cabinets are cherry w/ dark accents. Is it ever OK to pair R&B cherry w/ R&B walnut. Would like to buy Oslo in cherry to break up dark floors and chairs, and the tones from this manufacturer tend to be more muted than traditional walnut and cherry but still not sure...

Thanks!
