Would not use the word quality and their product in the same sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Looking for slightly larger...may have to keep looking and also look into Amish makers...didn't know there were any here in FL but I'll see what I can find.

It says table is "made of solid hardwood, engineered hardwood and veneer with iron stretchers." Is this significantly better construction than the other table made with MDF?

Like @YACCster said in his case the furniture only lasted a few years which sucks because something like this you want to buy and have it last period and the furniture being built today is throw away furniture Angelz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will make exactly how you want it. It may cost a little more but it is so worth it in the end.
