We bought this table for our guest house, which has a small living room area and no dining space. We wanted something compact, but good for use with existing white Ikea wood bar stools. The table is a perfect fit! It's narrow, but very solid, heavy, and classy. Now our guests have a place to enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and snacks without eating into living space. Three bar stools comfortably fit along one side of this table, but if it weren't placed against a window, as is ours, four stools could easy be staggered (2 per side) at this swanky bar table.
