Re: Viewpoint Leather Works
First off, in reply to Steve and Fearless Leader whatever his name is, we have a Viewpoint Leather Works couch and loveseat and have had it for close to 16 years and its still in superior condition and shows no signs of wear and tear and they have been through teenagers, dogs and numerous moves, messes and spills. We both believe, the older these pieces get, the better they look. SO, if they are just trying to sell their own furniture by posting negative comments about the Viewpoint Leather Works brand, they are posting false information. Also, Viewpoint Leather Works is out of Salt Lake City, UT, which last time we checked, was still in the U.S.A.!!! Nice try Fearless Leader and Steve!!!
Re: Viewpoint Leather Works
As indicated above, the website is now just a parked page. The Utah company is defunct as of 2010. It may be a familiar story of a defunct U.S. brand being picked up by a Chinese company or importer that wants to trade on the former owner's reputation. But as with many furniture lines, if in fact this piece was manufactured after the apparent demise of the Utah company, it would appear that the "Viewpoint" you dealt with in the 1990's was a very different company with a very different product.
If you take the time to read the forum, you will find that Duane is interested in quality furniture, and trades on honest information. And if you go to a typical furniture store these days, unfortunately you will see a lot of low quality furniture from China, no small amount of it sold under the brands of companies that have reduced or eliminated their domestic production. There are many importers with U.S. addresses that do no domestic production.

I love the newbies that show up and show their stupidity in their very first post. Proof that the clueless are indeed among us.
You will find as owner of the forum, I don't suffer fools for long - nor does Aaron, the other Admin. Mind your manners and have a little respect for the people that work hard to answer questions freely and honestly or you will be sleeping with the digital fishes.

I believe Viewpoint is still around, they just changed their name to "USA Premium Leather".
