Nowadays, property prices are getting more and more expensive. Many times, the living room can accommodate a sofa, but there is no space for a dining table. Therefore, both the sofa and the dining table must be accommodated, and the dining table may have to be hidden when not needed. One of the methods is to hide the dining table in the living room cabinet in the form of a telescopic table. Speaking of telescopic tables, this time Good Furniture will take a look at which telescopic table styles are more popular with customers, and what are the advantages and disadvantages of each method.
This kind of telescopic table is composed of two rail guides and a thin wooden cabinet that can slide. One end of the rail guide is fixed in the cabinet, and the other end is fixed on the thin cabinet. This low cabinet functions as a table foot. This thin cabinet has a sliding bottom that fits perfectly into the cabinet body when closed. This thin cabinet itself and the inside of the opened cabinet have storage functions. There are usually multiple movable shelves that can be used to store tableware or condiments for meals. When the telescopic table is opened, you will see multiple table panels folded on the rail guides. This stack of tabletops is fixedly connected to the rail guides. The way to open the countertop is to spread out the originally fixed countertop. When spreading out, there is no need to place each panel on the rail guide, because each table panel is hinged and connected to the previous one. The advantage of this kind of telescopic table is that it has a solid structure and the rail guide can be 2 meters long, making it easy to turn into a 6-person table. The only drawback is that the space inside the telescopic cabinet is relatively unused.
The characteristic of this telescopic table is that it can be pulled out directly for use. The pulled out table can accommodate 4 people dining at the same time. The telescopic table is composed of two folding rail guides and a movable cabinet. The tabletop is directly connected to the folding rail guide. When the telescopic table is pulled out, the tabletop is spread out directly, eliminating the need to place the tabletop. In addition, in addition to the corner style of the table legs, the movable cabinet can also be used for storage inside. The advantage of this kind of telescopic table is that it is convenient and quick to use, and it can be used immediately after opening. The disadvantage is that the countertop cannot be too large. The maximum area can only be about 1100 square meters.
The characteristic of this one-piece telescopic table is that the table legs and rail guides are directly connected together, and they are also made of aluminum alloy. The advantage of this telescopic table is that it can be transformed into a table for 6 people, and at the same time, there is no need for bulky wooden cabinets to be used as table cabinets. The entire hall cabinet only needs to contribute space for storage rails and countertops. The cabinet space under the rail guide can be used as normal storage space. The disadvantage of this telescopic table is that the cabinet must be 600 meters deep. Hall cabinets with such depth are actually rare. If the hall cabinet is really made to this depth, the space in the living room will become very compressed.
Some customers worry that if the telescopic table is permanently connected to the hall cabinet, it will be more difficult to repair if it is damaged. So they will ask us to separate the telescopic table from the cabinet, which means to steal a space in the hall cabinet to place the finished telescopic table that can be purchased on the market. If the telescopic table is really damaged or depreciated in any way, you can directly replace the entire telescopic table and buy a new telescopic table.
The so-called simple telescopic table is actually a style that can be pulled out directly like a computer keyboard tray. The advantage is of course that it is easy to use, but the disadvantage is that the distance it can be pulled out is short, heavy objects cannot be placed, and the supporting capacity is poor. If you want the countertop to be longer, you can use multi-fold rail guides and make the countertop into a 3-fold type. Since the front end of the telescopic table is not supported by the legs, it does not bear much force. The longer the countertop, the greater the risk of it falling.
