Help me find inexpensive kitchen table set

[dottyblue]

I have found that any black furniture from Target tends to chip very easily. We have two end tables and a TV stand from Target that look horrible because of that.

We have this dining set and I love it. It really has held up well (we have had it for 6 years and it has gone through 3 moves), and the few nicks in it don't show up as much as anything in black.

I don't hate that table at all. I will recommend this table:

It expands, but the leaf stores underneath it, so it's super convenient. You can buy matching chairs.

I think we got these chairs, but I'm not sure:

We got it in black brown. I really think you could get any of the chairs so long as you get the same finish.

I like it because it's nice to have more table space when we have people over, but our place feels to crowded to leave it opened up all the time.

We have the same set, just in another finish. I got it 8 years ago and it's held up well, through at least 4 moves. The only issue is the top has a few scratches, but that was our fault in not making sure to cover the top during moves. It's a very solid set, and pretty easy assemble.
