How this parent of grown children is planning ahead for his future family

Victor got this Artesa Dining Table in oak with Saddle stain for his home in Idaho. The 54” square table fits perfectly in his dining nook between the stairs and patio door. He also got two table leaves for entertaining. Victor explains below:

“We did a great deal of online searching for just the right table for our space and the table we ordered is perfect. The color selection ties in very well and we benefited by having several color samples sent to us. Our day to day use is what you see in the first picture.

“When we have larger gatherings we will enjoy being able to extend the table by adding the two leaves, and with the expanding bench we’ll be able to easily accommodate gatherings of 12 which we’ll be moving towards as our grown children get married and return with spouses and families of their own (second picture).”

The Modesto Bench also takes leaves so it can expand with the table. Victor ordered two leaves with his 48” bench.

“We are very pleased with the product, service and delivery. Thanks for your part in getting us there.” Victor

This Texas home recovered from Harvey. Then they found the perfect bedroom set…

On August 27, 2017, with the remnants of Hurricane Harvey dumping 55 inches of rain on our hometown of Dickinson, Texas, our home was inundated with 16” of flood water. We experienced extreme losses with the majority of our possessions, including all of our furniture! After several days, turned into weeks of removing wet furniture, appliances, clothing, files, cabinets, flooring, sheetrock and insulation, we decided to allow our thoughts to drift to recovery plans.

We knew that it would be a number of months before our house would be completed to the point of taking delivery of furnishings. But for therapy, we decided to shop around for furniture. There was a local (3rd party) store, in Houston, running a sales promotion on their name-brand adjustable beds. If after the purchase of one of their beds, the Houston Astros won the World Series, they would credit you the purchase price of your bed, or give you a 150% percent in-store credit. So we went and checked out the beds. They were nice! While we were there, we decided to look at their collection of Amish-made furniture. (My wife and I had for a number of years considered handcrafted, solid wood Amish furniture, but had only gotten as far as on-line “window-shopping”.) Well… we absolutely fell in love with the Ensenada style bedroom set.

The Ensenada, with its smooth lines, rich grain of the Sap Cherry wood, along with the contrasting brushed nickel hardware, was impeccable. We took plenty of notes and pictures, as we put together our bedroom wish list. We decided to take our chances and purchase the adjustable bed. We had to take immediate possession, so we stored it with a “non-flooded” family member. We continued to watch as the Astros proceeded to win throughout the playoffs, and to our good fortune they won the World Series!

Knowing that our in-store credit, at the Houston store, while wonderful, would not be enough to purchase our entire wish list, I began to comparison shop on-line and found Amish Furniture Factory. After a quick search, I found that they had the identical Ensenada style bedroom furniture. I initiated an account and started a “working copy” order. To my delight, I found that a seasonal discount was available, as well as an additional volume discount. As I searched the AFF website, I discovered that a number of options were available for several of the individual furniture pieces (that were not available at the 3rd party furniture store in Houston). For example, a dresser without a mirror, a larger chest of drawers, as well as a cedar chest and file cabinet were all available in the Ensenada style. In February of 2018, I placed an order for several pieces of the Ensenada furniture.

The next day, I received a call from Laura, at AFF, to discuss the details of my order. I explained that my home had been flooded and that I was attempting to match the furniture that I had won from the 3rd party store sales promotion. Laura was quite helpful in discussing wood types, stains and hardware. I provided her the wood type and stain name and had a picture of the hardware I was attempting to match. Laura was diligent at working with me over the next few weeks to achieve a furniture match. She provided me with a stained Sap Cherry wood sample, the stain name and manufacturer’s product number and part numbers for the brushed nickel hardware. Upon comparison of the wood sample to the actual furniture, it appeared we had a very good match.

In June of 2018, our home was finally complete enough to take delivery of our furniture. I called to let Laura know and she gave me details of my delivery. We first took delivery of our 3rd party furniture, and within a few days, our AFF furniture was delivered. As can be seen in the photos, the furniture was a perfect match! We couldn’t be happier with our Ensenada bedroom furniture. A big thanks goes out to Laura and the Amish Furniture Factory for helping make our recovery a pleasant experience.

Why You Should Talk to Laura About Every Furniture Order

Linda from Montana found this Arts & Crafts High Buffet and had it customized into a dining room entertainment center. The wood is cherry and the custom stain is FC-15743 Briar. But she had more changed about this buffet than the color. Have a look while Linda tells the rest of the story:

“I was in the process of remodeling my kitchen and had found the perfect two-tone tall table and chairs and needed a stereo/media cabinet to match. I found a beautiful tall buffet on the Amish Furniture Factory website that was the perfect width but there were two things that I wished were different. The darker stain color I needed was not listed as available and I needed two wooden shelves instead of one glass shelf.

“I e-mailed Laura and she helped me solve both problems! I was able to find out the exact stain from the other company and Amish Furniture Factory obtained it and the furniture matches beautifully. They also were willing to replace the glass shelf with two wooden ones and drill cord holes in the back for me.

“I am so happy with my new furniture! The quality is far superior to anything I had found shopping at furniture stores. Laura was wonderful to work with and she was responsive and communicated every step of the process from order through delivery. I highly recommend Amish Furniture Factory.”

How Customer Service Got Sarah The Right Table for Her Dining Room

“It was such a pleasure to work with Laura at the Amish Furniture Factory. We purchased the Jacoby Plank Dining Table, which is absolutely beautiful.

“Laura worked with me over the course of a few weeks, helping me to select a table and stain. My emails and phone calls were always responded to quickly, providing me with the information I needed.

“I knew throughout the process that the table would be beautiful, but when it arrived I was pleasantly surprised to find that it went beyond my expectations. The quality of the wood and the workmanship are extraordinary. We are extremely happy with the table and would not hesitate to order furniture again from the Amish Furniture Factory.

Grandkids Love the New Rocking Chair on Their Southern Grandma’s Front Porch

Caroline got new poly vinyl patio furniture for her front porch. The Deluxe End Table and two Comfort Rockers are in weatherwood and chestnut brown. Poly vinyl is durable, low-maintenance furniture, so Caroline can enjoy the time she’ll be spending with her granddaughters.

For the rest of the story, leave it to Caroline:

I was very nervous ordering my rocking chair without sitting in it or seeing it in person. It was expensive and I didn’t know what to expect. From my first phone conversation I was impressed. I ordered samples for color selection and to see the quality of the product. That helped a lot. I ordered two chairs and a table after talking with you. You were very helpful in my deciding which table to order and if the chair was going to be a comfortable fit for me.

Well, our furniture arrived. It was crated and I have never seen anything packed so well. My furniture was PERFECT. I know it should be, but we just purchased a new home and some other new furniture and nothing has been perfect except for our rocking chairs. You could see the care that was taken in the making and shipping.

My granddaughters love the chairs and we get lots of compliments from neighbors. I would definitely order from you again!!! Thank you so much!!!

Caroline from South Carolina
