Will it fit my room?
Two different measurements matter, and people usually check the wrong one first.
Measure the overall footprint, not the name
A Pangea's name is its playable area — the recessed vault. The table itself is larger, because the rails add about 3.25″ per side.
| Table | Playable area | Overall footprint |
|---|---|---|
| 3×3 | 36″ × 36″ | 42.5″ × 42.5″ |
| 3×5 | 36″ × 60″ | 42.5″ × 66.5″ |
| 4×6 | 48″ × 72″ | 54.5″ × 78.5″ |
Height is 30.5″ with the standard legs, 26″ of clearance underneath.
Then add clearance for chairs
The footprint is the table. The room needs to hold the table plus people getting in and out of chairs.
Allow roughly 3 feet on every side you'll seat players. That covers a pushed-back chair plus someone walking behind it. Less than that and you'll be shuffling sideways past seated players all evening.
Practically, for a 4×6 seating 8–10:
- Table: 54.5″ × 78.5″ — about 4.5 ft × 6.5 ft
- Plus 3 ft each side: about 10.5 ft × 12.5 ft of room
If you can't give three feet on all four sides, it still works — just seat players on the sides that have room, and put a short side against a wall.
Check the route in, separately
A room that fits the table is no use if the cartons can't reach it. The longest carton is roughly 47″ for a 3×3, 71″ for a 3×5, and 83″ for a 4×6.
Measure the narrowest point on the path: doorway, stair turn, elevator, hallway corner. And plan to assemble it in the room it will live in — once built, it won't fit back through a standard door.
Leg heights change the maths
Three leg heights are available, and they suit different rooms:
- Standard (26″ clearance) — dining-table height, the default.
- Counter (32″) — taller, pairs with counter stools rather than dining chairs.
- Coffee (14″) — low, for lounge seating.
Our Pangea Mid-Century Dining Chairs are made for the standard height. If you're going counter or coffee, plan seating separately.
