What size dining table fits your room? Drag it around and see

A dining table that fits the room on paper can still feel cramped, because you need space around it for chairs and for walking past. Most guides suggest about 60 cm of table edge per person and at least 90 cm from the table to the nearest wall, with around 105 cm if people walk behind the chairs.

Put in your room's size, pick a round or rectangular table and drag it around to see the gap on every side, how many people it seats, and where it gets too tight.
