My Dining Table's Clever Design Freed Up Space in My Kitchen Cabinets, and It's on Sale Today

If my last six years as a New York resident have taught me anything, it’s how to get creative with storage. I’ve lived in five different apartments — alone and with roommates — and have had to navigate the difficulties that come along with limited space. 

After moving into my latest unit, a 500-square-foot studio, I invested in roomy under-bed storage bins, a six-drawer dresser that doubles as a TV stand, and my favorite space-saving solution: the Latitude Run dining table. It has a sneaky hidden compartment to keep my excess dinnerware and glassware, which frees up space in my cabinets and on my countertop, and it’s on sale for $270 today. 

Latitude Run Round Pedestal Dining Table 

The pedestal-style design is the kitchen table of my dreams. I was hunting for a piece that looks exactly like the Wayfair version I ultimately landed on, but I had no idea the extra storage compartment was even a possibility. The round shape of the table makes it ideal for smaller spaces, however, it’s still roomy enough to comfortably fit four guests. In fact, I could probably squeeze in an extra chair or two to seat up to six people if needed. 

It’s crafted with a high-quality MDF and wood veneer material that feels sturdy and authentic and is sealed with a water-resistant coating. It hasn’t stained from any spills nor has it scratched or scuffed. The handy storage compartment is hidden away in the base of the table and has an easy-to-open sliding door that reveals a spacious interior cabinet and shelf. I’ve filled it with extra plates and glasses with room to spare. 

The design feels classic yet modern and fits so eloquently in my space. Beyond just being a functional choice, it completely upgraded my apartment’s living and dining area. It looks so much more sophisticated while serving multiple purposes.

Shoppers love it in their homes, too. One person called it “very sturdy” and praised its “great quality.” One customer called the hidden compartment “such an efficient use of storage,” while another added that it’s ideal for “placemats, napkins, or anything you would like quickly accessible.”
