Merel Dining Table (Model 70165) | Acme Furniture
Our Merel Dining Table transforms your dining room into a warm gathering space that comfortably seats up to 10 guests. We crafted this table with solid acacia wood and finished it with a hand-applied distressed treatment that highlights the natural grain and character of the wood.
The generous 96-inch length gives everyone room to dine comfortably, while the plank-style tabletop and turned legs deliver authentic farmhouse appeal. We designed the Merel to anchor your dining room for decades of family meals, holiday celebrations, and everyday moments around the table.
Merel Table Construction Details
Solid Wood Construction & Finish Details
We build the Merel dining table from solid acacia wood, a hardwood known for its durability and distinctive grain patterns. Each piece of wood is carefully selected and milled to showcase the natural beauty of the material.
Our craftsmen apply a multi-step distressed oak finish by hand, creating subtle variations in color and texture that make every table unique. The finishing process includes light distressing along edges and surfaces to achieve an authentic aged appearance. This treatment also helps conceal minor scratches and wear over time, so your table continues to look beautiful through years of daily use.
Seating Capacity & Dimensions
The Merel table measures 96 inches long by 42 inches wide, providing ample space for 10 people to dine comfortably. We recommend pairing it with our matching Merel dining chairs or mixing in upholstered seating at the head positions for added comfort.
The 30-inch standard dining height works with most dining chairs and allows comfortable legroom underneath. The table’s width gives everyone plenty of elbow room while leaving space in the center for serving dishes and centerpieces during family meals.
Assembly & Care Instructions
Your Merel table arrives partially assembled to protect it during shipping. You’ll need to attach the legs to the tabletop, which takes approximately 45-60 minutes with two people. We include all necessary hardware, an Allen wrench, and detailed step-by-step instructions.
For daily care, simply wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove spills and crumbs. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbing pads that could damage the finish. We recommend using felt furniture coasters under hot dishes and placemats to protect the wood from heat and moisture.
