This is a great table set for the price.  It comfortably seats our family of 5 for casual meals.  We've also sat at this table for dinner with a guest, so six will fit fine as well.  Could seat a few more smaller people if needed.  I love that it is real wood rather than particle board, the storage in the benches is an added plus, and it looks great too.  My husband who is quite handy put it together in a few hours, including having to take the end pieces off and swap them out when he realized they needed to go the other way for table to sit in the direction that works best in our space.
