I always send my rugs out to a professional company. They do it pretty much the same way except first they use this big beater machine to take all the dust out and then they wash it. They put it in a...
I love that chair. I've been eyeing that and the chancellor sofa.
I just learned about fake 8 way hand tying.
There is a drop in unit that doesn't have support on the bottom?
Is this a normal practice nowadays?
I'm interested in a Kincaid Sofa. Their...
Hi Duane,
I have read that Hancock and Moore was bought out by a large company, and Jim Moore no longer owns it.
Would you say the quality has stayed fairly consistent?
I am thinking about...
I like some chairs from the Tommy Bahama line of Lexington. They are expensive but pretty.
The frames are rattan. I have always thought Rattan was pretty sturdy.
Any experience with their...
Looks like nice stuff from their website.
Are they good?
We are replacing our huge sectional which was way too big for the room.
We are thinking sofa with two ottomans or a left and right arm chaise from put together to make a really big double chaise. ...
Thank you again.
I guess I really don't need a very expensive sofa but i'd splurge for it. Gotta convince the hubby though.
I keep scoping the antique centers too. I have a few items that I've...
Thanks Duane.
So I guess the difference between Klaussner and Kincaid is cushion and foam, and maybe screwed vs staples plywood. Kincaid does offer a hand tied option. So what are the 5% that still...
I am looking to replace my sectional with just a regular sofa. I just hate this big honking thing.
We looked at Kincaid Tuscany. I am told it’s solid wood frame with lifetime warranty. I have...
Oh sorry to hear. I hope this virus goes away soon. Too many people are losing loved ones.
I agree that Amish quality is probably way better, but mission style won't work in my home, which is a formal french/British Colonial.
of course i guess i could have something custom but then i...
We are looking at kitchen chairs by canadel.
We were told they are solid wood but they look kinda fake. Could be the finishing on them (very distressed).
They seem sturdy. I like that they aren’t...
I have a sectional from Klaussner that has held up nicely over the last 7 years. It is plywood construction of course not solid, but it's done very well and super comfy.
I am changing it only...
Any experience with Braxton Culler?
They have a chair that I love. It appears it is made in the US which is a bonus.
I am still looking at desks. I notice on Wayair they have a Hekman Desk for $3400. Then they have what appears to be the exact same desk, same pictures, same specs but listed as Canora Grey For $500...
I don't know if it is specific to the renaissance or what but here is a photo that i snapped when i was looking at it. The pencil drawer is wood but the side drawers have this tweed like covering on...
I did look at the hooker desks. It seems that there is some sort of covering on the desk drawers. It almost look like a contact paper of some sort with a little bit of texture. Are there any that...
Interested in this too.
Is Lee Industries still one of the best in the upholstery biz?
I am thinking of getting a sofa. I have a Wesley Hall chair & Ottoman i will reupholster because i believe...
Hi All,
I am new to this board, having found it in my desperate search for solid wood furniture because I get violently ill from imports with chemicals.
I haven't purchased new furniture in about...
Yes, that's the one. Thank you for the info you provide on this forum.
I love antiques, and would happily furnish that room with an eclectic mix. But the hubby views them differently than I do.
I...
Thanks for your reply.
SO i guess my Old Hooker Seven Seas Partner's desk was an import too? I probably bought that around 2001. It definitely was better quality than what I'm seeing now. My Hooker...
Hello
We are looking at Hooker DEsks. I love the look. Not crazy about the MDF particle board mentioned and the fact that they are no longer made in the US.
I had a hooker partner's desks years...
