How high should we install our chandelier over the table

On their website, it does not say exactly who manufactures their cotrona tables.

You should contact them and ask them this question directly. I'm sure they'll be happy to answer. Here's the link to contact them: www.potterybarn.com/customer-service/?cm_type=fnav

The best dining room table shape for a room with limited space is a round table. You should look into finding one with an extension leaf if you have enough space to open it. Try looking for a table where you can fit more people around it by purchasing one with a pedestal base. This leaves more room for your guests legs without the legs of the table getting in the way.

Here are a few examples for you to browse through; they should not be too difficult to come by. Do a little online searching and I have no doubt you will find plenty to choose from.

Hi

I was looking for dinning room tables which were standard size and came upon an interesting page at Macy's. They seemed to over a variety of shapes and sizes, many of which will cater for your needs in the kitchen, or dinning room for that matter.

The height you hang your chandelier above your kitchen tabledepends on the wattage of the light bulbs and the of the chandelier. If you are using lower wattage light bulbs,you should hang the fixture about 2.5 feet above the center of your dining roomtable. If you are using higher wattagebulbs, I suggest hanging it 3 feet about the table so it is not too bright.

I definitely suggest using your conference room table as adining room table because all you need to do is put some placemats and acenterpiece and it morphs into a dining table. I'm not sure that I'd recommend using your dining room table as aconference table because it might look out of place in an office. Also, conference tables tend to have holes inthe center for cords or phones to be plugged in to.

Kitchen and dining room tables are generally the same. Except, sometimes dining room tables are a bit larger and made out of stronger materials.

Unfortunately, the hum is normal for operation of that type of dimmer at low levels.  Sometimes the lamp filaments will also "sing" a high pitched sound.
