Is Crate and Barrel furniture good quality?
Comments (14)I strongly urge consumers to stay away from Crate and Barrel outlet stores. I spent over $2k on one couch which seemed to be in perfect condition and was a great deal compared to what it would have cost if I had purchased it in store (based on full description provided by store employees on model and fabric). Worst experience as the upgraded, stain resistant fabric along with the stain removing directions provided by the company on this model were so wrong and within a couple months I have nothing but water stains all over my whitish sofa. I followed everything exactly. The company takes no responsibility for selling me a $2K couch that, although came from an outlet with as is, was still $2K based on these features. I wouldn't pay $2K if it didn't have these features which were part of the sell to me. What a waste. The couch is not worth $5 at this point. Save yourself time and headache and know that just because it seems like a good deal and that you can inspect it all you want and do all the research , it means absolutely nothing. Will never shop with C&B - outlet or not - ever again. They owe me at least a professional cleaning but choose to simply say that I signed a waiver for the outlet so who cares if we sold you junk!!!!...See MoreGood accent colour fo F&B pigeon.
Comments (19)Hi - F&B Pigeon is a near neutral greyed colour from the Green-Yellow Hue Family. ALL low Chroma (near neutral) colours from this Hue Family neighbourhood, are prone to shifting blueish in imbalanced lighting. The impact of varying qualities of light upon Pigeon, is the reason why there are differing opinions about the colour. To some it will appear an almost neutral grey, others will see more of its inherent greenness and others get moments of blueness. Knowing to which Hue Family belongs helps to direct the possible colour harmonies one could make with it. Here’s just one suggestion. A Split-Complementary palette from the Yellow-Red, Green-Yellow & Blue-Purple Hue Families. Oak floor (Yellow-Red), Pigeon (Green-Yellow), chair (Blue-Purple)...See MoreIs Coretec LVP good quality?
Comments (1)I think it’s great, I originally used wood plank flooring, and it was rather costly to install and still has a very hollow sound. LVP is a great product, I eventually did install it in a clients home, and they were very pleased. We did have to use a lightweight self leveling concrete to get everything very level but it looks great. Also, it holds up to pets very well. :-). Darren...See MoreGood quality maple butcher block?
Comments (6)Any local cabinet maker with a jointer can make you a wood counter. Do you want one for show, or for actual food prep? The details are different for the 2 different functions. Food prep is end grain, finished with mineral oil. That is food safe, and won’t show knife marks, as end grain is self healing. If you want a wood top for show, that is face grain, usually finished with a lacquer type clear film. You do not prep food on that type of wood counter. You use a cutting board on top of it....See Moresriston
