Is there a standard height for dining tables?
Standard height

No, if you are making one, just make the legs extra long then you can cut them down afterwards :-p
The question arose when my grandchildren visited. I noticed that they were having trouble cutting food because the kitchen-diner table was too high. I checked it against my good dining table which is 29" and found it 1.25" higher and removed the difference. It is still a little high for them, but they go home at the weekend. I understand, of course, that it also depends on their height and the chair height, but surely some design guru has got a PhD out of this?
Only if you have standard height diners.

The message from "Phil L" contains these words:
And don't carry the legs anywhere near an armed rozzer.
Jim Scott pretended :
I made a fixed kitchen dinner a few years ago. I have lowered its height twice since then :-)
I'm coming to the conclusion they're all too tall for us average folk.
Sit them on cushions and then get a life!
