Crate and Barrel has a lot of furniture made by McCreary Modern of Newton, North Carolina. The Axis sofa is a fairly basic track arm sofa which is available from many manufacturers. It's a clasic clean look which looks great in anyone's home.

Hi All! Does anyone know who manufactures the Huntley Woods line for Crate & Barrel??? Or a company that makes a similar style for less? I actually got a KILLER deal on a Huntley Woods sectional from my local C&B store last year. I guess they had mismarked the sale price on it and I ended up saving over 40% on their regular price. I loved the couch once I got it, except for one thing...the fabric showed signs of wear and actually ended up looking incredibly stained within days!!! The salepeople at my local C&B were super nice and tried their best to help, but unfortunately, the higher ups refused to do anything other than give me another couch in the same fabric, which they admitted was defective, OR they offered to sell me one in another fabric but I would have lost every single penny of my discount and have to pay more than the original price for the sectional in an "upgraded" fabric. I guess the fabric was such a problem, that they actually pulled the Huntley line from stores for a while. I visited the store recently and see that they are carrying it again, but it still has the same type of fabric. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could point me in the right direction in finding the manufacturer of the sofa or someone who makes a similar style. (I did agree with another post about the feather issue, that was kinda annoying.) Thanks for all your help!!!! :0)

I have the Madison extension dining table and 5 (used to be 6) Madison chairs. The table is okay; the extensions slide out well but the top is veneer--not a good choice for us. It's about four years old and the veneer top has scratched/chipped. My next table will be solid oak, or at least not veneer. The Madison table is probably not for daily, regular use but that's how we use it. The chairs are HORRIBLE!!! I plan to buy restaurant quality chairs when I find my solid oak table :-) When my chairs first arrived, two were wobbly at the joints. CB had great customer service and replaced them immediately. However, after four years most of the chairs have become loose at the joints and, on the chair we no longer have, the leg snapped off completely when my SIL scooted back in it and that leg was unrepairable. My DH has reinforced most of the joints but it's not pretty. I don't care because I'm planning to replace the whole set. I think it was WAY overpriced for the lack of durability. Totally my style, though, and I've had a hard time finding a similar style in solid oak. My advice is that CB furniture is probably more for looks than durability despite how expensive it is.

I am looking to potentially buy this Crate & Barrel sofa and wanted to know any personal experiences with Crate & Barrel quality and durability? This will be our everyday tv watching couch.
