A console table is the piece that makes a first impression. Placed in an entryway, hallway, or behind a sofa, it's where keys and lamps land, where you style a vase or a stack of books, and where your home's character shows before a guest reaches the living room. At Online8 we stock a wide range of hall and console tables — from warm solid and reclaimed timber to marble-top, glass, and slimline metal designs — in narrow, wide, and storage-drawer formats to fit any space.
Whether you need a slim console for a tight hallway or a statement piece for a grand entrance, you'll find one here to suit your style and budget. We ship nationwide across New Zealand — shipping options are shown at checkout. See the range in person at our Papatoetoe showroom in Auckland.

About Dining Tables
How do I choose the right dining table?
When selecting a dining table, there are a few key factors to keep in mind. First, consider how many people will typically be seated at the table. For households of 4 to 6 people, a small dining table should be sufficient. For larger families of 10 or more, a table that is 2.8 meters or longer will likely be necessary. If your guest numbers tend to vary, an extension table could be the most practical choice.
Next, think about the size and shape of your dining area. Ideally, there should be at least 1 meter of space around the table to allow room for chairs and comfortable movement. Generally, a rectangular dining table suits a rectangular room best. If your space is more compact, a square or round table may be more suitable.
Lastly, take into account the colours and materials. It’s important for the dining table to complement the overall look of your space, including the dining chairs, flooring, and interior style. You can choose to match or contrast. Matching typically involves selecting similar colours and materials to those already in your décor, while contrasting means opting for a distinctly different tone or texture to create visual interest.
