I've ordered bookcases from them--several of the folding and stacking ones with the mantel top and one other (can't remember the name of it). The folding ones are easy--just open the sides and the shelves fall into place. They are sturdy enough to hold lots of books. I've moved a few times since I got them and they are still going strong. The other bookcase required assembly. The instructions were clear, easy to read and follow. The bookcase has a small drawer on the bottom--I've had problems before with assemble-it-yourself furniture with drawers--the drawers aren't level or they stick. This drawer is very smooth opening and closing. It's not top of the line furniture, but it does hold up well, I think. I basically needed lots of storage for books and DVDs at not too high a price and with reasonably good looking furniture and that's what I got.

It's a marble/polymer composite "tile" flooring. I'm tiling a small laundry room and back entry and am just exploring options. I think it's a type of flooring like Duraceramic but this fellow says there were wear problems with Duraceramic and he's been using this one with good results for after changing to it 4 years ago. I'd love to have your opinions. Thanks!

Does either one have a tiny overhang of the face frame at the sides of the wall cabinets? We need a 36-inch minus a teensy bit (like 35 15/16 or so cabinet for a niche. I like the rustic wood, and if we could trim them down a fraction to scribe to the wall it would be wonderful. Lowes: This cabinet line Home Depot: This cabinet line

I found a shutter for our TV equipment/DVD storage closet to the right of FP. The more white part is actually tin, and both sides of the shutter is finished (has the same color and lattice work). The guys that made the TV cover (over FP) made it into a door for the closet. They added another panel at the bottom to make it the desired height and gorgeous hinges. I found a pair at a local antique store that are a close color match to the kitchen island. They just lean against the wall in the DR. You could use them to cover built-ins, scroll down in link. Turn one horizontal and add hooks along the bottom to use for coats, hats or dog leash. Use on a porch.
