Custom Shaker Extension Dining Table With Exotic Maple Top by American Heirloom Furniture
“We searched high and low until we found Mennonite Furniture Studios ‘American Heirloom Furniture’ via the internet. Once the maple wood for our table arrived, they mailed us stained samples. There are very few expensive items I have purchased that I felt were of exceptional quality. I would absolutely say this furniture is exceptional. The entire shopping experience with them was enjoyable. They were timely and thorough in answering my questions, went out of their way to earn my trust, charged me a very fair price (in fact, we had enough money left to place an additional order for a coffee table and two candle tables) and delivered a fine product on time. I would shop there again and recommend my friends to do the same.”

Avoid This – Things To Reject When Choosing Quality Bedroom Cabinets For Your Home
Inferior Bedroom Chests
The mass-produced cabinets that You’ll find in most furniture stores may look nice, but they are typically built from low-grade materials, using poor construction techniques, and are not designed to last. Hard-earned money spent on these pieces is usually a poor investment that you will come to regret sooner than you may expect. Here are some signs of furniture that you should avoid:
Avoid ‘Beautiful only on the outer face’ When only the top and front are pretty and the back and bottom of the cabinet are ugly, you know that shortcuts have been taken. On the other hand, quality furniture pieces will look great from the front, back, underneath, and inside the case. This test will show you whether the person that made the piece was in it for his love of fine craftsmanship or if the person was building for a fast buck – at Your expense!
Look Behind The Cabinet: shallow beauty is a sure sign that other cabinet components and / or the finish are also likely to be sub-standard, and will degrade and become problematic in use.
Avoid Finishes That Are Not Guaranteed To Be Water Resistant: Lacquers are not water resistant and are not as hard as modern conversion varnishes. A water resistant finish means that sweating glasses will not leave rings on your cabinet top.
Insist On Solid Hardwood Throughout: Avoid any cases constructed with particle board, and beware of the terms ‘all wood’, ‘solid all wood’, and ‘veneers’. Avoid soft tropical woods and particleboard components that will split or crack when subjected to weight or swell and chip when subjected to moisture.
Avoid Sloppy Joinery & Poor Craftsmanship: The structural members of the furniture case must meet in a tight joint. Predominantly caused by poor craftsmanship, poorly fitted joinery will result in early failure and a short service life in your home. Drawers that do not use dovetail joints or doors that do not use mortise-and-tenon joints are another sure sign of inappropriate cost-cutting.
Avoid A Complete Lack Of Joinery Some low-cost furniture pieces are built with low-grade components that are held together with staples. For furniture to endure the tests of time, it must be properly constructed from quality materials using proven legacy carpentry techniques and quality adhesives.
