Why choose the Ashley Burkhaus Dining Extension Table D984-45?
The Ashley Burkhaus D984-45 is a substantial contemporary dining table for households that want generous everyday seating with extra capacity for gatherings. At 72 inches long, it works well as a six-person table; installing the 18-inch center leaf extends it to 90 inches, where Ashley lists seating for up to eight. The 40-inch-wide top gives place settings and shared dishes useful center space without becoming as broad as a 46-inch gathering table. Its double-pedestal base creates a strong architectural look, while the dark waxy brown oak-tone finish gives the table a more refined contemporary appearance than rustic farmhouse designs. Construction combines wood, oak veneer and engineered wood, so the Burkhaus has real wood components and oak-grain character but should not be described as an all-solid-oak table.

How many people can sit at the Ashley Burkhaus D984-45?
A practical setup is 6 people at the 72-inch everyday length and up to 8 people when the Burkhaus is extended to 90 inches. At 72 inches, three standard-width chairs can usually be arranged along the two long sides, while the 90-inch configuration gives you enough additional table edge to accommodate end seating or provide more elbow room between diners. Ashley lists the table to seat up to eight when extended. Wider armchairs can reduce the practical count, so chair width still matters. Using roughly 24 inches of table edge per person is a useful way to
match dining-table length with realistic seating capacity.
Does the double-pedestal base on the Burkhaus D984-45 affect legroom or chair placement?
Yes. The double-pedestal design leaves the corners free of traditional table legs, which can make chair placement along the long sides more flexible, but the pedestal supports and connecting stretcher still occupy space underneath the table. The main area to check is the ends: depending on chair depth and where a diner sits, the pedestal position can limit how far an end chair tucks under or how much knee room is available. The 27-inch apron-to-floor clearance gives useful vertical room, but it does not eliminate interference from the base itself. If end seating is important, compare your chair dimensions with the base layout rather than assuming every position will have identical legroom. This is one of the practical differences when comparing
pedestal and trestle dining-table bases.
Is the Ashley Burkhaus D984-45 solid oak?
No. The Burkhaus D984-45 is made with wood, oak veneer and engineered wood, so it should not be described as an all-solid-oak dining table. Oak veneer provides the visible oak-grain character across broad surfaces, while real wood and engineered wood are also used in the construction. From a shopper's perspective, that means you get the appearance of dark-finished oak without paying for or receiving a table constructed entirely from solid oak boards. The distinction between
solid wood, veneer and engineered wood dining tables
is useful when comparing materials across similarly styled tables.
