I have had 6 chairs around the table comfortably. I think 7 or 8 would be a little tight.

I would say six is a comfortable amount of people around the table, but probably could add a couple more since the legs are offset.

Six is most comfortable for us because I like a little space between people, but, because the table is oval and legs are positioned from the middle of table, 7 or 8 chairs is possible. We have had six large men sitting at table with plenty of room.

No, 4 is about the most for a comfortable fit we have had 5 and a high chair Way to crowded! Hope it helps :)

Table can fit six adults comfortably and probably two additional but that would make it tight.

I have 5 chairs like this http://www.kmart.com/jaclyn-smith-today-addison-5-dining-chairs/p-028W004005966000P?prdNo=1&blockNo;=1&blockType;=G1 They fit very comfortable. I can fit 6 around this table but they will probably bump into each other. I hope this helps!

6 snugly. I have 4 tables and I have 22 family that comes for dinner. Love them.

Two will fit under just fine it will be pretty snug with all four though. Maybe not Completely flush with the table.

I have had 8 around it and I have the fabric wing style chairs. No one seemed uncomfortable, just maybe close knit.

I have an outdoor table and 4 chairs in mine with room to walk around. With out the table you can fit about ten chairs.

I have 6 chairs with armrests. You can fit 4 all the way under the long side of the table. This leaves 2 chair on the end of the table that fit half of the way under. I would suggest getting the armrest chairs. I found no space issues with having 6, plus I think armrest chairs look and feel better.

Not in my opinion. Although I really like the table four persons would be comfortable. Six if the additional two can put up with the the cross members on the ends. Eight? I don't see how. Otherwise it's been a great table camping.

It sits four comfortably. We have squeezed in an extra chair for a child, but it was tight. Great table though for our breakfast room when there are only 2 to 4 of us.

I agree with previous answer. I live in an apartment and this table fits perfect because the dining room is open to the living room and den. However I only use 6 chairs because when you use 8 all the chairs want push all the way up to the table. I currently have the two additional chairs sitting to the side by the living room window. I am currently looking for a small counter high pub table to use with the two chairs. This is a beautiful set, fun to sit at, the chairs are very comfortable.

Yes, more than comfortably. The table is 70 inches long and appears shorter in the pic; there is plenty of room for six chairs if you have the space. I love mine.

You can seat 8, but 4 people will straddle the 4 legs. The distance between each octagon section is 20-inches. Another side table for food would be ideal if you plan to seat 8. This is a very attractive table and a good value.

I would say comfortably it seats 6 adults, 2 on each side and 1 on each end. You could fit 3 on each side to make room for 8, but not so comfortable, but I have not tried this.

We have managed to fit 8 around the table, but three chairs will not fit fully underneath the table's side and it is a little tight. Overall, we love this table and have had it for over two years.

can you sit 8 people around it comfortably? It depends on the chairs and how loosely you sit around it. For meals, maybe not because it is not so solid like wood table.

I have small folding chairs and can fit 3 on the sides, and 1 each on the ends. If you have larger chairs it will be hard to fit 3 on each side. Also, the table is not heavy and tends to slide. I used it for a kids party (age 8) and it was fine.
