Wesley Hall Upholstery

16 years ago

I posted this on the furniture forum, but thought I might get more reponses over here.

I am looking for two club chairs that are on the smaller side. I found a very nice one in a Henredon, but their fabric choices are not good and I couldn't find anything that would work.

Can anyone tell me how the quality of Wesley Hall compares and if you've ordered from them were you satisfied?

Chloe, will Henredon do COM (customer's own material)? Did you ask at the furniture store where you saw the chairs?

Which chair did you find, and what kind of fabric are you trying to find? I did a random chair under "design your own" and there were more than 1600 covering choices.

Hi Chloe,

I recently purchased three chairs (club chairs) from Wesley Hall. I was very pleased with the quality! I would buy from them again. I purchased directly from North Carolina.
Hope this helps!

Thanks Dawn,
I thought I had found a fabric from them that worked, but now I'm not so sure. It is much easier to start from scratch than to find something to go with what you have.:)

Wesley Hall or Room or Board sectional?

In your situation, I suggest picking a fabric that will hold up well and easier to clean. That would be a heavy tight woven olefin in dark colors that can hide stains well. For solid colors choose Ultra suede. R&B is a retailer not a manufacturer and Wesley Hall is a manufacturer. I should add that many upholstery manufacturers should review their pics and videos on how not to tie a 8-way hand tied coil springs. This includes Wesley Hall and Hancock & Moore. I could name a few others as well. The rails should always be at least 2" below the center height of the springs after tying. This is the proper way to make a good 8-way seat, but it would require more time and more experience to tie this way. As it is now, these 8-way tied coils is inferior to a solid well designed no-sag sinuous wire seat.

I have and enjoy my Wesley Hall Sofa. It is eight-way handtied and still use hardwood frames. It is also a family business. I find Family businesses still focus on the quality of the product and not trying to trim costs and quality to focus on stockholder dividends. The EA and Thomasville lines tend to use Plywood frames and some are eight-way handtied, some aren't. They are also publicly traded companies which is why I have seen a reduction in quality with these lines over the last 5 years. Wesley Hall also has some great covers and yes They do a great job on COM's This is my opinion and not intended to badmouth any companies "my own disclaimer ;-)" PS: My WH sofa is now one year old. Still holding up well.

Wesley Hall have good leather? Need help.

Keep in mind that many high quality leathers can be stiff at first and some can take a few months ot break in. Look for a full aniline dyed leather dyed all the way through. It is more comfortable. As far as the brands you have mentioned H and M does make a good product but they are very high cost with many sofas in the $6000 area and up. I agree I would look at some of the other options and there are quite a few, making comparable products for a lot less money.

Les, they won't do COM. The two chairs I was considering were the A6621 and A6690.
I was wanting a stripe. I just couldn't find one with colors that worked. Perhaps some of them were checked out . I amy check back again to see if any different ones come in. It would seem with that many fabrics I should be able to find something.LOL
I didn't realize that I could look at their fabrics online. Thanks for telling me about that.
Dgmarie, thanks for your feedback. I remember your swivel chairs and I think I found your fabric when I was looking at the Wesley Hall fabrics.

Hi, Chloe -- I also purchased a sofa by Wesley Hall which, after a nearly 10 month wait, arrived just before Christmas. See comments and photos using this link and decide for yourself: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/5803516/vanguard-wesley-hall-taylor-king-ethan-allen-sofa-opinion#n=12
