My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Walnut plywood? Please explain.

9 years ago
The description says Walnut Plywood. Is the plywood all walnut, or is this a walnut veneer on non-walnut plywood?

    Molded plywood is a way of shaping the wood ergonomically by applying thin layers of wood together [plywood] but applying heat and pressure to be able to shape the wood. The plywood is then covered with a walnut veneer.

    We bought 6 of these chairs in February. By summer the hard rubber connector holding the back to the chair cracked. The vendor replaced the chair but the 2nd chair cracked too. The chairs look good, but did not hold up to normal wear.
