can this table seat 8. or it really for 4 people?

It's for 4. I wouldn't want to squeeze 8 people. Maybe you could fit 6, but it would be awkward with the table legs. Great table and we like it.

You might be able to fit six but not eight for any type of dinner or at all with the chairs that have arms on them. The table, however, is wonderful as are the chairs. We thoroughly enjoy ours.

it will seat 6 comfortably but 8 is possible. We have a Teak bench on one side and 3 big chairss with arms rest. We pull other Teak chairs we have for company.

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.

It can seat up to 8 people fine. The legs of this table are no very solid and tend to bend sideways.

I seat 2 chairs on each side with 1 chair at each head. I have not seated 8 at the table yet. I think it would be tight but do-able.

I would state so (haven't actually measured it but that seems correct). We can comfortably seat 8 people and can squeeze another two on the longer side for a total of 10. Very happy with the table (and chairs/bench, too).

I would say you could comfortably fit 4 2-4 year olds and squeeze in 6 2 year olds. 6 4 year olds would not fit unless they were unusually small. This is a good size table for my 1, 2 and 5 year old and one or two of their buddies. More than that gets a bit crowded unless you pull up kid sized chairs to the ends.

You could have 4 chair at the table but 4 chairs will not slide under the table and have the backs of the chair flush to the table edge. This table is not wide enough for that, the seats hit each other. So you can have 4 people sitting at the table, but not much room for legs, or you can have 4 chairs at the table but you can not slide them in all the way. If you are buying this for a small space, the space needed for the chairs to sit take up way more room than the table.

I have the table and it's a perfect4 top...2 more chairs would be too many and would be cramped.

We have had more than four guests sit around this table during a party and it was fine. If you plan on having more than four chairs permanently around it, the ones placed by the supports would not be able to be pushed in as far.

You could probably fit four as shown in picture but I have two. Personally I think the tabletop is too small for four people to eat dinner but it could be done.

no more than 4 for sure the table is small but fine for my husband and myself.

8 people on one is fine if it is informal cocktail format and you are standing or milling around. Also fine if you have a round or square table. If you are seated at a rectangular table, you are probably better with two otherwise some people won't be able to reach... or you could just have one and pass things to the people at the ends of the table

Depends on if you are putting tables in it or just people with nothing else. With tables (probable 4, 6

There are 7 seats so technically I would say yes. It depends how big the people are I guess. I think 6 is more realistic.

You can fit 4 people; however, there is not much room left, specially if you are talking about adults.

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.

You can seat 7 people, but we're not using the configuration as shown on the picture. We organized it in 3 pieces: 2 corners + a middle, 1 corner + 2 middle (against a wall so that it doesn't look too awkward) facing that first piece + one middle on its own, so that each person has its own cushion. With the configuration as shown, it would still work , as each seat is quite wide but the person in the corner may not be as comfortable.

Yes. It would be good for up to 4. 2 people only and there is no crowding of food/dishes on the table.
