After years of mismatched hand-me-downs, we are planning to start really decorating our home, and so I have scoured the forum archives and some design blogs. One author had a partial list of manufacturers that I have added and subtracted to while reading through old GW threads. This led to the following spreadsheet list (below) with some of the most popular higher-end manufacturers/sellers. Now I'm trying to fill it in with notes to inform buying decisions... and I put the most stock in the personal experiences of those who actually have used such furniture.
I'd love to know your personal experiences of any of the furniture brands listed below... would you please take a moment to share any pros/cons or favorite items in your home that were made to last? Or do you have any other high-quality brands you treasure?
I'm specifically looking for domestically-made pieces, solid woods (no particle board or veneer), and made-to-last upholstery. I don't want to replace pieces, perhaps just recover them or refinish as needed over our lifetime due to wear.
Thanks!
