This is what I did to solve my seating problem. I bought the formal dining table and chairs that seat 8 people. I keep it in the furniture tray at the top of the screen because I don't have a dining room in my house. When my family gets too big for the default table, I just put the formal dining table in my kitchen and have them eat their meal on it. Once the meal is done, I put the table back in the tray. A simple solution that works for me.
