There is a huge variety of dining tables to choose from.  Picking out a dining table is a long term decision no to be taken lightly.

A classic choice that is never wrong is the oak dining table.  Oak dining tables are very traditional and can have a place in any home.  Oak is always sturdy and stable and can add a ton of flavor to a dining area.

While oak can be a very beautiful wood without needing any kinds of paint or finish, some prefer to take these extra steps to really help the oak shine and make a statement.  Whatever your preferance may be, avoid putting hot items directly on the oak as it will burn and leave a terrible mark that is very hard to hide.

If you are going for a Country look for your dining room, a farmhouse oak dining table can go a tremendous way towards that look.  You can take things a bit further by using turned table legs, and / or legs that are painted white.  Shaker style table legs go wonderfully with an oak dining table.  Along with a good set of oak chairs there is really not much more you can do for your dining area to look country.

It is important to take great care of your oak dining table investment by so using a paint like polyurethan or applying oil to the oak will help prevent those nightmare water stains that are incredibly difficult to remove.  Another good idea is to just cover the surface of the oak dining table with a fitted path and a nice table cloth.
