Where and how to choose glass dining table sets for my contemperory styled dining room?

hi i watched this program called thats so raven i saw a dining table set, where the chairs are along the wall ( as in attached) on three sides and a square table in the centre. one side of the table has no chairs any idea what it is called ?

I'm searching for a dining furniture set for my home which would include the table, chairs, and some sort of buffet or hutch. I've seen a few sets where the table is counter height and the chairs are actually "bar stools." Does anyone have experience using these higher dining tables and chairs? And what are your opinions of them? Are there any benefits or shortcomings when compared to traditional dining furniture?

I want to purchase a dining set. which shape of dining table recommended for 4 people sitting and where I get it?

I am getting my first dining set and I want it to last. Where should I start looking for quality? I like very sleek and simple style.

E.g http://www.furn-on.com/boston-small-dining-p-2403.html Plz help :) In the UK!

Besides garage sells/thrift shops. I am wanting the name of a specific retailer/manufacturer/website.

I have been informed I will have to sand the table to refinish or paint it but what about the chairs? and table legs how do you get sand paper in such a small area. I was wondering if there was a product out there to use instead of sanding the whole dining table set! Thanks :)

I bought a dining table set from Cost Plus World Market 1 year ago. It's not the most high quality furniture. The wood is stained very dark/almost black. I've noticed that when cleaning the table with a damp cloth/paper, the color rubs onto the cloth, etc. Is there some kind of product I can buy at the hardware store to protect the top of the table, perhaps some kind of do it yourself sealer or something. Or should I use an acual furniture repair place to coat something on the table? thanks.
