Protect Your Investment: Why Every Dining Table Needs a Quality Table Pad

Dining Room Set

Your dining table is more than just a piece of furniture—it’s the centerpiece of family meals, holiday gatherings, and everyday memories. At Rhode Island Design Center, we know how important it is to protect your investment. That’s why we strongly recommend custom table pads to extend the life and beauty of your dining room table.

What Are Table Pads?

Table pads are custom-fitted covers designed to protect the surface of your table from heat, scratches, spills, and dents. Made from durable materials and often featuring a soft, felt backing, table pads offer a tailored fit that shields your furniture without compromising style.

Top Reasons to Use Table Pads

1. Heat Protection

Hot serving dishes, coffee mugs, and candles can damage your table’s finish. Table pads act as a thermal barrier, preventing heat marks and warping—especially on wood and veneer surfaces.

2. Scratch and Dent Prevention

Kids doing homework, pets jumping up, or even sliding a plate across the table can cause permanent marks. A good table pad cushions the surface and keeps your table looking like new.

3. Spill Resistance

Even careful hosts deal with the occasional spill. Table pads provide a moisture-resistant layer that helps prevent water rings and stains from seeping into the wood.

4. Preserve Resale and Heirloom Value

Tables from Rhode Island Design Center are built to last—and table pads help maintain their value. Whether you’re passing it down or planning to sell later, protecting the finish keeps your options open.

5. Custom Fit for a Seamless Look

Our custom table pads are tailored to fit your specific table shape and size—even with extensions. They fold easily for storage and can be used with or without a tablecloth.
