Oh where to begin! When I give someone a budget I expect they will honor it. Well, not in this…read morecase. After we spent thousands of dollars on design fees, the quote for the furniture and rugs exceeded our budget by 33%. When questioned, Jim replied... "Oh, the budget for decorating never includes design fees, tax, or delivery". Wow, that would have been nice to know upfront. In all my business dealings a budget is a budget. Our issues started early and continued almost 18 months Jim came up with 5 designs for our great room. Of course, we paid for this in design time. We spent hours going thru magazines to show Jim what our taste in decorating was. We wanted "comfortable and classy", what he came back with looked nothing like what we had asked for. Clearly, he didn't listen but was happy to charge us for more time spent on design. The furniture he quoted was overpriced even with the "designer discount" as I found it less expensive online. When we informed Jim that we would order some furniture ourselves he told us he strongly advised against it stating the problems that can arise that often need attorneys to get involved. Well, the opposite happened, our online orders were handled very well with strong communication and delivery included in our pricing. In addition, when the first set of chairs, ordered thru Ireko, arrived they were damaged, then again 5 months later when the "repaired" chairs were received, once again they were damaged in different places. So much for careful inspection before we came to pick them up...oh, I forgot, the freight charged is to a storage facility, not to your home. That is an extra delivery charge. I have been in business for 48 years and have never felt such abuse and condescension.

I bought two beautiful chairs and two side tables from Dagmar, who is one of the nicest people I've ever met. You will pay more, but you're paying for serious quality, and again, you can customize as much as your heart desires. They have a few available floor models, and I was lucky to snag my chairs with a summer discount, so keep your eyes peeled. Even if you're just looking for throw pillows, you should check out Brick & Mantel because everything is wonderfully made.

I have specifically been working with Andrea, who has patiently answered a constant peppering of questions. The one question she didn't know the answer to offhand was thoroughly researched and followed up on. She also presented multiple options based on my room requirements in a custom PDF with photos, layouts, dimensions, fabric selections and prices in an easy to understand format -this is priceless in a world where too many choices can least to analysis paralysis. Regarding their products, they are one of the few companies that prioritize non-toxic and sustainable solutions. The furniture is built to last and very worth the investment. My only grievance is that I want it all and my small home won't allow me to!

Their curated selection of furniture and decor is fantastic--call it "Japandi" or "Scandanavian" or "Artisan," "Clean, contemporary"... it's all thoughtfully designed and beautifully made. Love the focus on sustainability, and the selection of *washable* luxurious fabrics. And Julia and Floyd have been so incredibly helpful. They have a knack for picking out exactly what we want--before we have any inkling. Their eye for design has saved us so much time and earned us so many compliments.

The only complaint I have is for some of the stains, the stain will rub off when you rub a cleaning cloth on it (or worse - a wet napkin). So if you're in the process of picking out a stain, you should check to make sure the color you pick won't rub off easily OR accept the fact that the stain will easily rub off. The staff here is very friendly, not pushy and definitely easy to work with. I still love Harvest for the same reasons: high quality, recycled wood, friendly service and the ability to customize pieces to fit my space. I have spaces where I'm looking for furniture with a very specific dimensions and searching high and low over for something pre-built was very difficult and/or the quality I saw was very poor. I want pieces that will last that I can enjoy for years to come! This week I placed an order for a custom made media cabinet/stand. Mary helped me bring my design to life. My husband had very specific requests to the width, height, number of holes, shelf sizes, compartments, etc. for all of the electronic equipment and we had no issues working with her nailing down the details via email as well as in person. FYI on payment for custom pieces - half of the amount is due when you place the order. The remainder of the payment is when the piece arrives (usually around 4 weeks).

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Vintage Owl. Laurie and her team completely transformed…read moremy dull, dated early-90s bedroom furniture set into something that feels timeless, elevated, and absolutely beautiful. What was once heavy, yellowish, stained, scratched and tired is now a dreamy creamy light beige with the most gorgeous detailing. They thoughtfully retained and carefully cleaned the original hardware, which adds so much character and charm. The delicate veneer wood tops on the nightstands were expertly restained and now look rich and intentional rather than worn. Beyond the cosmetic transformation, their craftsmanship and service truly impressed me. They repaired broken dresser drawer tracks so everything functions smoothly again, and they even fixed an old light inside one of the drawers that hasn't worked in years. The entire set feels brand new while still honoring its original character. It's rare to find someone who combines artistry, attention to detail, and true restoration skill the way they do. If you're considering refinishing furniture instead of replacing it, this is your sign, and you will be absolutely thrilled with the result.

The amount of prep work they did really shows in the quality of the finished product. The color scheme we chose wasn't complex, just three colors, but I'm sure they would have done a great job with that if we had. Our job required scaffolding and netting off the back of our house. The crew (Pat McDonough, Willie, Salvador and all the guys) were great, working hard all day and then tidying up before going home. Other contractors were also doing work at the house and they were friendly, working well together. They were really nice about our two dogs, too. But what really brought it to the next level was what happened after the job was done. The week following, in the special circle of hell known as preparing for an open house, I called Pat to ask about painting a small portion of pink wall on the neighbors house that had been revealed by removing an old gate. Pat not only said Yes, I can come by tomorrow to do that, he said he wouldn't charge me. The next day, Pat and Salvador showed up on time, then proceeded to paint the wall and paint an adjacent door. I would hire them again, without question. I would recommend them to friends, my boss, or my grandmother.

Everything they sell is built to last, which make your purchase a good investment. We recently bought a large, custom sectional and bar stools, all of which were made in the US. We could not be happier with our choices. We were also grateful for the outstanding service we received from our very first visit to the store. Our sales representative, Katie, has decades of furniture and design experience. She was able to help us understand their offerings and focus us in on items that were the best match for us. Everything went perfectly, including delivery and setup. I wish every shopping experience was as good as this one. Look forward to returning again and again.
