It's a nice, boat shaped mahogany hardwood (not veneer) table. My office is moving and is purchasing new furniture, so I think I can get a good deal on this. It has two base panels (legs) on each end. Would this work in a large dining space?

Why not! What a great idea and probably has tons of sitting space! I'd go for it. Who says one has to have a specific kind of furniture anyway. If regular table clothes don't work due to the shape I'd consider long runners and place-mats.

I would, you can make just about anything look nice. I'd let the wood shine through, and get some accenting chairs. If there's any wear on the table cover them with runners. Or Set a formal dining table, placemates/plates/the works!

I LIKE IT !
i say go for it! find dining room chair that will pull it all together and you will have a one of a kind.
if you ever watch hgtv you would see how to use different furniture in common ways.
some office furniture is so much better looking than regular furniture anyway.

I think you should go for it. If it doesn't work out, then you can always donate it to the Goodwill or something. Whether it works or not, will depend on how big the table is compared to the dining room.
Don't listen to these jerks who say you can't.
It's your house - so why are you asking a bunch of people on Yahoo anyway?

Yes you could use it as a dining room table. Just look for some chairs to accent it and it would be perfect.

Yes go for it. It saves you to buy a new dining table.

It will work if it's work with another decor in your room... Make sure another furniture in same (or similar) style and not contradict

Great idea as long as it is what you want and your house is big enough and the price is right.
