To my chagrin, I found out that Entertainment centers are no longer in vogue. I searched the countryside only to find that they are no longer being manufactured and I would instead have to find one of the rare companies that still maintains the vanishing artistic skills to make custom furniture pieces. Voila! ...Stuart David to the rescue! My new entertainment center is INCREDIBLE! Build as a one-of-a-kind heirloom masterpiece that will be handed down in the family for generations! Run! Don't walk into their gigantic furniture showroom in Ceres, California to see what I am talking about. Vita (engaged) and Aubrey (single and a catch!) will mesmerize you ...or go to their website to see for yourself. Thank you STUART DAVID FURNITURE!! read more

We loved working with Aubrey. She was very gracious in allowing us to look around at all the beautiful wood furniture until we settled on our choice of style. She helped us find floor models and then explained the variety of options offered with Stuart David building pieces to our choice of dimensions using our favorite wood. In conclusion Aubrey was friendly, courteous, and efficient letting the furniture sell itself. She seemed to naturally understand our needs and are confident that we've made a good decision.

We were upgrading to a king bed and wanted to buy solid wood furniture made in the US. We found Stuart David and drove from the Bay Area to look at their showroom. The furniture displays were extensive and the salespeople friendly. We found the perfect bed set and they were able to customize for us. When we were in the showroom, we noticed that their Murphy beds looked like ones we had purchased 12 years ago at a local store. Sure enough we checked our receipt and they were from Stuart David. It is still in excellent condition so I felt even more confident ordering from them. Our furniture was delivered today and is beautiful! There was a wait but we knew this was needed to get quality customized furniture. I highly recommend them! read more

Excellent service, the best handmade chair selection we've found! Great value for the product!! We live that this is a small family business in the Central Valley of California!! read more

One of the most essential parts of a successful business is customer service. It begins with responding to inquiries. I wrote a detailed letter with pictures requesting some information about Murphy beds. I live over two hours away from Ceres and have no desire to drive out to find their product is not what I seek or not affordable in the context of my desired budget. Similar to Tony A.. who wrote a review on October 12 of this year, I have been ignored. Either business is so great they need not respond to inquires placed on their website or this is just a business that does not know how to provide customer service. If they are that successful, more power to them. If they expect people to drive for greater than 2 hours/120 miles to learn about their products, they have certainly overestimated me and likely others.. I am writing this review because I spent over an hour writing a letter, attaching pictures of where I was interested in having such a bed, the specific model I was interested in, my preferred wood finish/color, and provided measurements and a detailed narrative to enable them to respond in the most efficient way. read more

Walked into this store in Ceres and found something custom for our fireplace that could be created. Discussed the item with the owner and his daughter several months back and have tried to reach out to them via phone and email to follow up with ZERO response. Not sure if it was us, their perception of our economic ability to pay for the item or just they are busy. It would have been nice just to receive a phone call or return email from them stating the reason for the delay or just they did not wish to take on the project. It would have been the right thing to do instead of leaving us in limbo. Tony & Clara Arguelles Ps. If anyone knows of a place who can create a custom fireplace mantelpiece shoot me a message. Tnx read more

This is the only place I will buy furniture going forward. Outstanding selection, woods and finishes. Experts in the business to help. We started with our living room and a few years later we got bedroom furniture. Today we got dining room furniture after looking at different options over the past 2 years. No reason to waste so much time anywhere else. read more

Quality is amazing! I was looking for solid quality furniture and WOW did I find it and great pricing! Aubrey was spectacular! Took her time and made great recommendations - it's a must go! Don't buy anywhere else read more

I like this place for unique furniture, beautiful furniture & other room decorations one would like to have in their home. They do come with a price and some waiting but worth it. You get a chance to look before salespeople come, but they answer questions & break away if needed. read more

Drove for an hour or so to get to their beautiful showroom on Oct 1st, but after we worked with our sales person too get a price on a custom set of tables and chairs, we never heard back. Our salesperson was very nice; took my business card and said she would get back with us in a couple of days and I haven't heard anything. Disappointing. read more

We found the perfect furniture store with great customer service & excellent quality. Mark was very helpful in designing the wall bed & kept us updated on the progress. The king size wall bed results were outstanding. The delivery was on time and the crew were professional & the installation was flawless. The ability to custom design the furniture is well worth the time for the build. We could not be happier with our purchase. Many thanks! read more

Great business with a very helpful staff. The furniture is too quality and built to your specifications. Everything from the type of wood, stain and measurements is made to your needs. They send a CAD drawing to you before building the piece which helped us as i found the original size was to big for my room. I will be going back to them for future furniture needs. The website doesn't do the furniture or experience justice. read more

We recently purchased two IMG chairs from Stuart David. These chairs are our second set of the same chairs.... We sold the first set prior to moving out of state... BIG MISTAKE! We loved these chairs... We received the new set of chairs and love them! After receiving these chairs, a couple months later we noticed a small separation in a seam on the fabric. We provided pics to Stuart David and they immediately responded and have set up a home repair to take care of the issue. We have dealt with Stuart David several times in the past and they are by far the best furniture store within a hundred miles! (probably a lot more!) Great customer service and the quality of product they sell is top notch! Much of the furniture is built on their premises. NOT IMPORTED FRIM CHINA!!! Super high quality!! Definitely look at Stuart David for your home furniture and decorating needs. Super friendly staff and their customer service is awesome!!! Compare that to places like Ashley... read more

Friendly service. High quality merchandise. Something to fit Every budget. I'm still using items I bought there 15yrs. ago. They're Stock covers every rooms need. read more

Be careful with this company. They want 50% down and then constantly change the delivery schedule claiming a different story each week. 5 weeks past due (13 weeks so far) and I got another story from them today. The quality appears to be decent but I get the impression they may be short on capital and their suppliers have them on a short leash. When they did a partial delivery to us they asked us to pay the full balance on items we still have not seen. (We only agreed to pay the balance of items that are delivered). Update to original review and response to owners post. I think the problem is a training issue with staff. Promising 8 weeks then turning into 15 is not acceptable. 1. Set realistic expectations. 2. When time lines push, communicate honestly with the customer. (My calling each week and getting a different ETA and excuse is unacceptable as a sustainable business process) I did receive a call from the owner explaining that the person I was talking to was new. The furniture has arrived and other than a small issue on pulls that is being handled ( no pun intended:-) you just cannot beat the quality of their products. Also to note the delivery team is outstanding and give your furniture great care. Top notch employees on that truck!!! I am sorry I had not got back to getting this update done sooner. In the end, if you want real generational quality furniture Stuart David is the place to go. Hopefully my review helps identify the need for better communication and customer service training so that Stuart David thrives in the competitive market and customers like us can find great quality products in the future. read more

After spending an hour or two one day helping my niece look for an Amish furniture store in the Modesto area, I finally gave up and modified my search criteria, to time looking for craftsman/mission style furniture. I shortly found Stuart David in Ceres. Yelp reviews looked hopeful and so I suggested we give it a try. She was impressed with the quality, as was I. Plus, the showroom is as nice as other reviewers have already pointed out. And before I forget, they manufacture much of the furniture on site, so you are definitely helping the local labor market if you purchase from Stuart David. Admittedly, I am not very fond of oak, preferring cherry mostly for furniture. BUT, I surprised myself when I found a beautiful bedroom set made of quarter-sawn oak, yes oak. We spent a lot of time looking around the expansive showroom and then on the way home my niece commented that they have lived in Modesto for over 20 years and she didn't know this place existed and she wanted to go back in a few days with her husband, which they did. He was surprised too. What a find! My niece will be ordering new furniture from Stuart David, however, she will not be doing so until sometime in the Spring after they have had time to save up. It only costs you a little gas and some time to stop by the showroom, so go take a look if are looking for a higher quality of furniture than what you'll find at the cut-rate places. Price point should not be the ultimate concern if you are looking for stuff that will last through the years. Give them a try. You might be pleasantly surprised like we were. read more

Looking for a solid wood dining room table, we were very happy that we visited SDHF. This establishment will not let you down. Their all wood products exceed expectations. Although you must traverse through colorful neighborhoods to get to their Showroom, you will not be disappointed once you get there. Originally only looking for a table and chairs, we also purchased a desk for our son. All pieces are definitely heirloom quality. Table and chairs have already been delivered. They are gorgeous in our dining room. The desk is being custom made to our specifications and needs. If you're looking for premium quality real wood products, SDHF is the place to go. read more

After six long weeks we finally received our bedroom furniture. We drove down to Ceres,Ca from San Jose to pick out the perfect set to fit our needs. From the office staff to the delivery staff everyone was very helpful and professional. I will be back to purchase a living room or dinning set next. Would recommend to anyone looking for furniture for their homes read more

Stuart David Furniture - Furniture Stores Near Me - Ceres, California

In February I ordered a custom conference table and was told that it would be delivered early April, however, that did not happen. Last week I was told it would arrive to my office between 12-3 pm on May 1 and at 2:45 when I called to get an ETA I was told it would be an hour before they got to me.... sounds like they have not even left the warehouse. They have beautiful furniture but they do not honor their commitment to their customers! I would never purchase anything from them again. read more

My family has purchased several pieces of furniture from Stuart David. I love their showroom!! My Mom & Aunt have 5-piece bedroom sets, I purchased my 6 year old niece a dresser & nightstand from their showroom, and my mother surprised me with a 14 drawer dresser as a present (my favorite piece of furniture so far). I can't say enough about the quality of the furniture and craftsmanship. The guides on each drawer are so sturdy & quiet. The pieces will last for generations and are worth the investment. MADE IN THE USA :-) Definitely recommend!! read more

Customer service is definitely not a priority at this place. We went in looking for couches for our family room. Not once did the employees approach us to ask what we needed. As a matter of fact, the employee passed us 3 times and didn't even greet us. After we approached him, the man seemed he was irritated that we even asked. We went to this furniture store, even though it's located in a bad part of town, because we found couches on their website that were nice. We asked for a tie back sofa and the employee stated he needed to see what it was we found as they didn't carry all the items in the store. He said he would not be able to help us until he knew the manufacturer of the sofa. He did not offer to show us what they had in store based on the description we offered him. We asked him for a catalog to look though and he refused to show us. It took us 10 minutes to maneuver through their website and found the couch that we liked. He stated they didn't carry it and he would have to show us something similar. We asked about the fabric at which time he took us to a wall of over 300 different swathes of fabric. He would not offer suggestions or advice as to which are commonly used or what we were looking for. We asked about the price of the couch and even then he couldn't give us an answer. When I asked him why the process of finding a couch was so unfriendly, he stated he couldn't answer my question and walked away. We were not done looking but I suppose he was done helping us. He didn't say anything but just walked away and left us standing there. When he got back to the counter he started talking to the fellow female employee about us and turning back to make sure we were listening. We were ready to purchase couches today but I supposed we didn't look like we could afford the couches in the store he worked in! I will be sure to share with all my family and friends about your horrible service and lack of effort to treat all your customers fairy. Shame on you for the way you treated us today!!! read more

Loved this place. We have been looking for a new dining room table,chairs and hutch. Found just what we needed. Like that they make furniture to order. We were able to find a perfect hutch and then had table made to order to match. Also liked the ability to choose any chairs to go with. Not delivered yet but can't wait. read more

The showroom is beautiful and the furniture is made on site. They have many wood and finish options and ate very flexible. Gorgeous furniture at great prices read more

My husband and I have purchased two pieces so far, and we are looking at possibly making another purchase in the next few months. The showroom is beautiful and some of their wood furniture is made on site. There are many options to choose from in style and color, and at least three types of wood available. The quality is exceptional, and I love buying a product that is made in the USA. Also, the gentleman who has helped us each time is helpful and friendly. He's not pushy at all, but is available to answer questions. The showroom driveway is a little hard to see until the last moment, but it is on a not-so-busy street, so it is easy to turn around in the next driveway. The outside looks like a warehouse, but the inside is beautiful. As you might expect, the prices are somewhat higher than at the common furniture store, but the furniture is quality-made of solid wood. I look at it as an investment. read more

This place is a gem. My wife and I spend a good portion of a year looking for an entertainment center for our new home. We had visited probably 2-3 dozen furniture establishments all over Northern California. Visits were made to mom and pop shops, national chains, upscale chains, etc. We also had received quotes on built in entertainment centers. Nothing had clicked for us from a price, dimensions, and finish perspective until we found Stuart David. Aubrey at Stuart David designed for us a custom entertainment center that met all our requirements. She patiently spent almost 3 hours over the course of two days with us on designing our unit. My wife was beaming after the unit was delivered and installed at our home. The unit fit perfect in our space and the finish was excellent. Kudos to Stuart David. read more

Quality not great. Service could be better. Bought living room furniture expecting solid hardwoods. Got a lot of plywood rather than nice solid woods throughout for the quite high price we paid. read more

My wife and I are recent customers and are very satisfied with the entire shopping experience at Stuart David. When you walk in the door, you're greeted by the friendly staff....they make you feel welcome, they let you know they're there if you need them, but they don't stalk you like a used car salesman! There are not enough superlatives to describe the beauty and craftsmanship of the furnishings. Made in the USA is a nice bonus, too. So far, we have purchased a coffee table, a dinette set, and an entertainment center, and we love them. Downsides? None, really. When you consider the beauty, quality, and longevity of their furniture, the price is more than fair. Recommend highly. Mark E read more

Great experience shopping and buying an entertainment center. Mark Bolen was very helpful explaining the options and showing the many different style, wood, finish, and hardware options. When I said the drawer was a little shallow for our needs he said they could customize it to the size we needed. We made several customizations to get exactly what we wanted. Mark was very helpful and accommodating through the whole process. Shopped a lot of other furniture stores and found pieces that were close, but not exactly what we wanted. Since Stuart David manufacturers their own furniture, they were able to make customizations to give us exactly what we wanted. They are a little pricy, but their furniture is good quality and where else can you get furniture custom designed built to your specifications. Highly recommend. read more

My first purchase was a wall bed for my craft room. This gave me the room I needed to do my crafting, and when needed, turns the room into a gorgeous bed room. The craftsmanship is amazing, the service was fantastic. I am so pleased that I have three more pieces: a desk , chair and dresser, being built to match. They are to be delivered next week and I can't wait. High quality, fantastic service and built to my specifications. It doesn't get better than that!! read more

If i could leave a zero i would. The worst, i mean worst, customer service I have ever seen. The gentlemen there was oblivious of my family while we were there. And when we had questions, he felt put out to get up answer our questions. I left while my wife stayed to look at products. Your product was pricey, but nice. With employees like him.... I'm surprised you're in business. My wife also stated an older couple walked in and he was up and attentive right away. Make your own assessment to that. read more

We were very happy with our experience at Stuart David. Aubrey and Mark, the sales team, are helpful, knowledgeable, and wonderful to work with. They allowed us to look around without annoying us with a hard sales pitch. When we were ready to discuss options, Aubrey gave us her undivided attention (Mark assisted with his expertise). And the furniture is high quality and beautiful. We highly recommend Stuart David. read more

Pretty nice furniture at this shop and very cool that they make a good deal of the furniture on site. I'd certainly have to agree that staff on hand is less than impressive, and less than polite or helpfull. But I went for the furniture, not to hang with the help. We bought a set of chairs to match an heirloom kitchen table, and I think that the chairs are of good to great quality and were very reasonably priced. We'll certainly go back for other furniture as the need arises despite the obtuse staff. read more

We just made quite the drive out to the showroom because my wife saw an entertainment center she liked online. I was truly impressed and this will be the only place we buy our furniture from now on. My kids were the most well behaved ever here, because the two gentlemen in the showroom put on a movie for the kids and they sat on the couch like home while we shopped. Found what we wanted, ordered a entertainment center that is made right on site, The showroom was beautiful and the furniture is all good quality. Looking forward to delivery. I would recommend this place to everyone. read more

After evaluating several vendors and visiting various showrooms, we chose Stuart David bedroom furniture through Giorgi Brothers in San Francisco. We recently received the furniture, and we are absolutely delighted. The wood, workmanship, finish, and overall quality are outstanding. The furniture is very solidly constructed and elegantly styled. The drawers fit, open, and close very smoothly. Above all, it is fully made in the USA, in California, by highly experienced artisans who take pride in their work. Considering the excellent quality, the price was great. They also have a wide variety and customize. read more

Fantastic showroom! I purchased a sofa and a recliner that features a power device that allows it to fully recline. Also purchased two bookshelves that are superbly made and which fit precisely next to both sides of the fireplace. Took pictures of the fireplace along with the appropriate measurements and the finished product was spot on. I can't say enough about the help I received and the quality of the furniture. read more

Buyer Beware! All sales are final and the 'sales people' do not make the buyer aware.! Although the receipt has a statement regarding exchanges they "don't do that"! Yes, I agree with others that the employees are not concerned with service. I will never return and will gladly share my opinion with others. read more

We purchased a Murphy Bed after it was installed we see 9 large black bolts on each side plus a cut out 1 inch by 4 inches. It looks very un-professional . I called to ask were are the caps to cover the un-sightly bolts and why the cut outs. Answer we do not have cap tops and that is how we make it. We never saw it , because they show it with book cases on each side. Clearly we are not happy. We paid a lot for this Murphy bed and planned on getting one more . We will go some where else to purchase the next one read more

What a disappointment. Yes the quality of furniture is exceptional however the staff is unprofessional, indifferent, uninspired, and unmotivated to assure a satisfactory customer experience. We came in looking for an entertainment center explained what we were looking for and how we wanted it designed. The quote provided was inaccurate excluding obvious items such as the top of the Entertainment Center and other miscellaneous items. When brought to the staffs attention the quote came back 50% higher. They clearly use a "Bait & Switch" tactic. We were also interested in a 9 piece dining set priced as "Floor model only". When we were ready to make our purchase of the Entertainment Center we also wanted to purchase the 9 piece dining set floor model. They refused to sell it as advertised stating that it was up to their discretion to sell the item or not. They promptly put the pricing back on the table to deceive another customer. We will never go back. read more
