    I'm so happy with my It's Not Trash bed! The owner Marge was very helpful in getting the measurements right for what I needed and selecting a color that best fit the furniture I already had. She also delivered the bed sooner than expected and we had a nice conversation while she installed and set it up for me. Highly recommend Marge and her team!

    Custom Walnut McM platform Bed

    We needed a bespoked bed for our custom MCM house and Marji and her team knocked it out of the park! The process was seamless and Marji was attentive to my wants and timeline.

    Love my new bed! Marji is super communicative and even helped back up the u-haul to be able to load the bed in. 10/10 recommend!

    Marji is truly fantastic. She is honest, hard working and straight to the point. Im very happy with my platform bed, side table and bench. I would hands down recommend her to anyone anytime! J

    Cannot recommend Marji and her team enough. After moving we just weren't loving any of our options for a bed (price, quality, design, you name it). Happened to hear about Its Not Trash on Reddit, and my husband and I loved what we saw on her instagram. We also liked the idea of having something custom made out of reclaimed wood, while also supporting a local woman owned business. Bonus points for the price being comparable or better than most of the beds we looked at! Started with the bed and ended up also having custom shelves designed and installed by her team (shoutout to Riley!) for a nook we have. We got updates every step of the way and were able to make little adjustments here and there as needed. Ultimately, Marji beat her estimate of 5-7 weeks and delivered an amazing product. Already brainstorming our next project with Its Not Trash.

    Marji and her team are great to work with. They love what they do and Marji is a great communicator throughout the process . Our dining table is beautiful and handmade in LA for less than something mass produced from rejuvenation or crate and barrel.

    Our dining table with tuck-in benches from It's Not Trash has become our favorite piece of furniture in our home. The table is top notch quality, and Marji's care and attention to what we wanted aesthetically meant so much to us. The process was professional, collaborative, and we can tell the pieces are made with loving craftsmanship.

    Marji is and Its Not Trash is the absolute best! They made us a gorgeous Alaskan King (108"x108" ) and a tv console to go with the rest of our house. Not only do I love that they reuse used material but they do it with such care. 10/10 would recommend. We already have our next project ideas in motion. Thank you for making my life so much easier!

    I'm in love with the bed I got from Its Not Trash. So are my dogs. I used to have a very, VERY high-set frame. It made things difficult for my senior dogs, who wanted to sleep on the bed but hated using the pet stairs. In an attempt to save their fragile poodle joints, I decided to replace the frame with something very low profile. Low enough that the dogs could walk onto the mattress. I had an exact design in mind, being pretty specific about the look and feel of my space. Of course, finding it ready-to-shop was basically impossible: Amazon failed me, Etsy failed me, and all the local furniture shops failed me. Everything felt slightly off. Until I found Marji, that is. The ordering process was too easy. Marji was great--I had all my questions addressed quickly over text. Marji had a "can do" attitude, which relieved all the frame-shopping stress. Once the order was placed, Bobby got in touch with me to keep me updated on the progress. I got pictures of the frame as it was being built, which meant a lot to me because I was anxious about how it would turn out. The delivery was just as quick and pleasant. Once the frame was all settled, I squealed a little. Well, no. I screamed an inner scream and took 500 pictures of it. Marji said it's one of the simplest designs offered by Its Not Trash. But sometimes, it's the simplest things that are the hardest to find. And so, I'm super happy that Marji was able to put together the frame for me!

    Queen bed with 2 drawers on each side

    Had a wonderful experience working with Marji and her team. From beginning to end very responsive and took the time to talk through my needs for the bed frame. I have a tight attic space so a standard frame size was not possible. First time I commission a custom furniture piece so I was nervous about fit since I took the measurements myself. Marji is a true woodworker/designer, she knew exactly what size I needed for my awkward space & how to design it to adapt for another space. Turn around time was 2 weeks!! Apart from looking great in my space, I had the sweet smell of freshly cut wood. Highly recommend It's Not Trash.

    Bed frame

    Excellent experience with Marji -- my significant other swears this is the best bed frame she's ever slept on and I tend to agree. Marjorie was supremely helpful beyond the one custom piece ordered and proves to be a huge asset for all things furniture during our time in LA. Can't recommend highly enough.

    See all

Phillip, our sales person, introduced himself as we entered and informed us about the sale prices and the layout of the store. He allowed us to browse, uninterrupted and was available to answer any questions that we had. He made the buying process very relaxed and convenient. We wanted to think about the purchase so we called back the next day and Phillip assisted us with placing our order online. The process was secure and convenient as they use a secure link to provide credit card information. Phillip kept in contact with us throughout this process and confirmed each step, which was reassuring. We highly recommend LA Furniture Store and Design Center based on our exceptional experience.

The store is quite expansive with many different models on display. I shared my preferences with one of the associates, Kayla, (sizing/firmness/seat depth) and she was very kind to show me models that fit the criteria. At the end of my visit, Kayla provided some fabric swatches and emailed links to the couches I had expressed interest in. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here and would recommend checking out Joybird if your budget allows!

We also were helped by Kayla, who made the whole selection and delivery process so easy!! She answered any questions we had and was our main point of contact from the moment we left the store. Initially, we decided we were going to sit and think about purchasing the Amelia Swivel Chair, so we didn't buy that same day we visited. However, throughout our search we kept coming back to this chair. With Kayla's help we were alerted when their Labor Day sale was happening, so we were able to purchase on a discount. We waited about 2 months after ordering to get our chair since they are made to order, but the wait was worth it!! We LOVE our chair, the swivel feature is so nice, and guests immediately gravitate towards it whenever we have company over. It's perfectly oversized without taking up too much room. We have cats and the material we chose holds up pretty well from all their scratching/muffin making. Overall would recommend. Our chair is now 3 months old and we want to keep it forever!

I've been wanting to purchase a new couch for years, but I could never find what I was looking for. Not only that, but there are so many online sites with couches that I can't see in person, let alone sit on and feel the fabric. After searching for months online, I finally found Sofa Club through Yelp. I showed up once and talked to the owner. She helped me think about dimensions, material, color, etc. I went home and did some measurements in my home and came back a few weeks later to design it in person with her. I sat on couches, felt different materials, and found the most beautiful fabric on one of their swatches. It only took 8 days to create and deliver my couch. It's incredibly comfortable, I love the style, fabric and color. And it was a little over 2k, which I think is perfectly reasonable for the quality, materials and care that went into making this couch. Sofa Club, Thank you so much for making my sofa dreams come true!
