I agree with everything the first reviewer said about this place. My wife and I ordered a dining set to replace our last piece of college furniture. It arrived today and it’s amazing. Besides being exactly what we wanted(since we got to customize everything including dropping the height on the backs of the chairs 4 inches) the quality is ridiculous. There is a reason why everything comes with a lifetime warranty. This isn’t that hideous press-board crap you get other places and it isn’t so trendy that we’ll want to replace it in 5 years anyway. The crazy thing is, it doesn’t even cost that much more than the other places. $ 3,000 for a dining room table and six chairs that will last generations? No-brainer. Definitely check this place out. (It sure is sad how hard it is to find places like this. Do people really just plan on throwing everything away?)

Ok, so I just got married about 6 months ago. That whole«nesting» thing has genetically programmed me to want to buy some furniture for our house. We had been looking, and looking, and LOOKING for a bedroom set. I’m not old, and I’m not fussy. I don’t want a Louis the IVth ornate ugly bedroom set. I also don’t own a house with a huge master suite — my house is an older(1939 house) with what I would call a modestly generous sized master bedroom for that era; about 20′ by 14′ or so. So we’d been looking and looking and looking at area furniture stores for a dark wood, clean lined, non-fussy bedroom set. Apparently nobody makes those and apparently a lot of people like ugly, ornate furniture! On a whim my husband and I were in the Castleton area and stopped in to the Simply Amish store. We saw a bunch of beautiful, simple, but modern bedroom sets. You can buy the pieces individually, and you pick the wood and the finish you want. We ended up with a cherry bedroom set with a mahogany stain. They even allowed us to CUSTOMIZE all the pieces — we made the headboard and footboard of the bed higher, and we made the footprint of the nightstands smaller(23″ wide vs. their standard huge width) because our bedroom isn’t huge. The pieces are all handmade; the beds are made by Mr. Kauffman and the furniture pieces are made by Mr. Miller. It only took them 6 weeks to make our order(bed, dresser, and two nightstands). We even got to pick the drawer upgrades(fully extendable drawers, soft-close drawers) and the type of knobs on all the furniture. When the furniture was delivered everything was delicately placed and gingerly handled. It was almost like they were responsible for something THEY themselves owned. I only wish we’d gotten our living room furniture here(see my review about Ethan Allen and you’ll know why). They can customize EVERYTHING and they always seem to be having a 15% off sale… Anyway, the next room we plan to do is our office, and then the dining room. Their furniture is all hand made, hand signed on the back, and is all finished so that you don’t need to use coasters. They even gave me «training coasters» to ween myself away from using coasters on the furniture, as it’s protected against water, alcohol, and even nail polish remover! I can’t say enough good things about this store. Their sales staff are amazing. Their products are in a class of their own. And they always have refreshments, and homemade cookies and moon pies at the store. Who can beat that? I am feeling the love for Simply Amish furniture.
