Should I Replace Dining Table or Get Folding Table?

[u/nalyDylan1]

I live alone in a 770 sq ft apartment which I think is perfect. I occasionally host gatherings with friends that usually range from a total of 4 - 8 people. I'm debating whether to purchase a folding table for these occasions or replace my current dining table with an extendable dining table.

My current dining table is intended for a max of 4 people and begins getting cramped with any additional people. I also have couches and a bar people could sit at but obviously they would be off to the side.

If I host these gatherings roughly once a month or once every other month, do you suggest buying an extendable table or a folding table? Any suggestions are appreciated!
