A six-seater dining set does not always have a bigger table than a four-seater. In Grandeur Furnishings’ round dining range, the four-chair set opens to 135 cm across, while the six-chair set opens to 120 cm. The package name tells you how many chairs are included; the measurements tell you how much table you get.
When comparing round dining tables in Singapore, check both. You need enough room for your household’s meals, chairs that work around the base, and a clear route through the dining area when everyone is seated.
4-seater or 6-seater: compare everyday use first
Count the people who sit down together on an ordinary evening. Then consider what goes on the table. Four place settings with several shared dishes can use more surface space than six drinks and small plates.
| What you need | What to prioritise |
|---|---|
| Two to four people at most meals | Four comfortable places, room for shared dishes and enough space to move around the chairs. |
| Six people eating together daily | A full six-chair layout with usable elbow room and foot space at every position. |
| Four daily, with occasional guests | Check the guest arrangement separately, including where extra chairs will be kept and whether they are included. |
As a general shopping guide, around 110–120 cm diameter is a useful starting range for four, and around 135–150 cm for six. These are planning ranges, not guaranteed capacities. Chair width, the base and the way you serve meals can change the result.
Compare the actual round dining sets side by side
Both sets below change from a narrower tabletop to a round one. Their open diameters and included chair counts differ, so it is worth comparing the specifications rather than choosing by “1+4” or “1+6” alone.
| Detail | Metal Base & PU Chairs 1+4 | Sleek Chairs 1+6 |
|---|---|---|
| Included package | 1 table and 4 chairs | 1 table and 6 chairs |
| Narrower tabletop | 135 × 85 cm | 120 × 75 cm |
| Fully open, round tabletop | 135 cm diameter | 120 cm diameter |
| Listed tabletop material | Gloss sintered stone | Gloss sintered stone |
| Listed chair options | Tan or grey PU chairs | Black or khaki PU chairs |
| Main comparison point | Larger round surface with four supplied chairs | Smaller round surface with six supplied chairs |
The 135 cm top is 15 cm wider than the 120 cm top. That difference also affects the room around it: centred in the same position, its edge sits 7.5 cm farther out on each side.
135 cm round table with metal base and four PU chairs
The Modern Round Extendable Dining Set with Metal Base and PU Chairs 1+4 is worth comparing if four people use the table regularly and tabletop space matters to you. Its 135 cm round top provides more surface area than the smaller six-chair set.
The package includes four chairs. A larger diameter does not automatically make it a six-chair package or confirm that two additional chairs will fit comfortably. If you want to add seats later, check the proposed chair widths and their positions around the metal base first.
120 cm round table with six PU chairs
The Modern Round Extendable Dining Set with Sleek Chairs 1+6 includes six chairs around a table that opens to 120 cm diameter. Its narrower tabletop measures 120 × 75 cm.
This gives you a smaller open tabletop footprint, but six diners will share that smaller surface. If six adults will eat here every day, request a photograph or layout showing all six supplied chairs in position, with their dimensions. Consider full dinner plates and shared bowls as well as whether the chairs physically fit.
The product image shows a central pedestal. Check its floor plate and the space for feet, particularly when adjacent chairs are occupied.
Allow for chairs and the route to the kitchen
For an initial floor plan, allow around 90 cm from the tabletop edge to a wall or nearby furniture. Treat that as a starting allowance to test with your chairs. A busy route behind seated diners may need more space.
Using that allowance on opposite sides gives these illustrative measurements:
| Open table diameter | Calculation | Overall planning span |
|---|---|---|
| 120 cm | 90 + 120 + 90 cm | 300 cm |
| 135 cm | 90 + 135 + 90 cm | 315 cm |
These spans include the allowance around the tabletop; they are not the dimensions of the furniture itself. They also do not guarantee a comfortable fit in every room. Measure to the front of a sideboard or kitchen counter, rather than to the wall behind it, and check both directions across the dining area.
Mark the circle with removable tape suitable for your floor, then place chairs around it. Sit down, pull a chair back and walk towards the kitchen. In an open-plan HDB or condo, this makes it easier to spot a dining chair that blocks the usual route past the sofa.

Check how the chairs sit around the base
A round top removes corners, but it does not remove the need for knee and foot space. Look underneath the table as carefully as you look at the top.
- Chair width: ask for the widest point, including arms if present, rather than the seat pad alone.
- Base position: check whether each chair can face the table without a leg, support or floor plate getting in the way.
- Tucking in: confirm how far the chairs slide under the tabletop. A photograph with chairs pulled away does not show the stored footprint.
- Height pairing: compare seat height with the space beneath the tabletop and any extension hardware.
Our guide to matching dining table and chair heights explains the measurements to request.
What to confirm before ordering your dining set
Keep a short list beside the product page: open diameter, narrower dimensions, included chair count, chair width and the space left beside your nearest obstacle. If you plan to use all six seats, ask for that exact arrangement to be shown.
For an online purchase, send the product link with a simple sketch of your dining area and the measurements you have taken. That gives you a clear basis for checking the set before you choose the chair colour.
