How to Merge Cells in Notion

Updated on:

Use this interactive demo to learn how to simulate merged cells in your Notion tables.

Quick summary

Notion does not natively support merging cells in a table block, but you can achieve the same visual effect by stacking two tables and stretching cells to align them. This workaround lets you create the appearance of a merged cell layout directly inside any Notion page.


Steps

  1. Use the /table command to create a simple table block in your Notion page.
  2. Extend the table to your desired number of rows and columns.
  3. Create a second table positioned where you want the merged cell effect to appear.
  4. Stretch specific cells in the second table to align with the first table's layout.
  5. Review the final result — the extended cell now acts as a merged cell across both stacked tables.

📌 Why this matters

Notion does not offer a native cell merge feature, which leaves many users struggling to build structured, presentation-ready tables. This demo matters because it reveals a practical workaround — stacking two Notion table blocks and stretching cells — that delivers the visual result of merged cells without any third-party tools. Understanding this technique helps teams create cleaner data layouts, project trackers, and reports entirely within Notion. It is an essential tip for power users who rely on Notion as their primary workspace for documentation and planning.
