    Herman Miller Embody Chair with White Frame, Titanium base, Dark Carbon upholstery and translucent casters.

    Mikaela helped me out with the purchase of a Herman Miller Embody office chair. I ultimately knew that this was the specific product line that I wanted, but Mikaela was incredibly helpful with showing me fabric swatches and different customization options to get the exact chair that I wanted. Although lead time wasn't a concern for me, she took the careful effort to inform how certain customization options could impact delivery time. Although I was quoted a 5 week lead time, the chair ended up getting delivered completely assembled in just over 3 weeks. I had a great experience and I'm proud to own a piece of functional art in my home office.

    This is one of my all time favorite furniture stores. Architects and designers joke that the store is design within reach but price is out of reach. If you have a thick pocketbook and money is not an issue then this is the store for you!!

    Chair one.  Big fade mark on wood frame.  Numerous scratches on feet of chair and ottoman.

    Though first line sales staff worked really hard to complete the delivery of our order, no other part of the process worked smoothly. It took us over 4 months to receive our "in stock" authentic Eames chair and ottoman because the first two we received were damaged and obviously used (and likely rejected) by prior buyers. Yes, this actually happened and no management-level person at the CM store could give a rip. How could a company with any sort of reputation turn a management blind eye to used, unboxed, undocumented merchandise being delivered to their customer -- not once, but TWICE??? The only "Oh my, we are so sorry" response came from the first line staffer and the corporate social media department, the latter because my very annoyed postings on Instagram were perceived as a bit of an embarrassment to DWR. (A small price adjustment followed our second damaged chair delivery. Was it to persuade us not to post our unhappiness? Likely.) If you make ANY PURCHASE from DWR, make certain you document the delivery from the moment it is unloaded from the truck and also while it is being unboxed. Then photograph and thoroughly examine the item before you accept it. Authentic items should be in a sealed factory box with full and complete ATTACHED PAPERWORK. There might even be factory wrapping which states that it is not to be removed before being accepted by the customer. Our first two deliveries were taken off the truck unboxed and had NO paperwork and no wrapping whatsoever. Our third and final delivery was in a Herman Miller sealed box with complete documentation attached to the chair itself. No explanations for any of this were ever given by management of DWR. See pictures of damage in "pictures" section.

    This plain looking chair is a floor sample with a 30% discount...for $10,500.

    + Great looking furniture designs + Friendly staff + Modern decor + Clean/welcome layout - Designs are certainly NOT "within reach" I'm a big fan of this store since there aren't too many options out there if you're looking for modern looking pieces....well unless you find some knockoff from some shady online site. The staff is very friendly and always willing to help and spend time with you finding sizes, colors, and offering other options. My one complaint is the obvious fact that the designs are very much not within reach. I get expensive furniture, but the prices on some of their pieces are laughable. A fake leather uncomfortable chair on 30% clearance as a floor sample for $10,500 (regular price was over $15,000). Seriously? Some of their prices are reasonable, but some are just too out there for me. I consider myself far from poor, but a $15K chair or a $9K small nightstand (yes I would need to buy two) is a little ridiculous.

    14k dollar couch.

    I was out browsing the shops at SOCO after a nice charcuterie and cheese platter at Serfas, and ended up here. If you are a fan of mid century modern furniture, this is really a must see kind of place. Kind of a Herman Miller museum of sorts, all of it new. I plopped into an Eames lounge chair just for fun, and sat in disbelief at the comfort. I used to have one of these, an old one, but not the original Eames, and loved that chair. This one was literally a hundred times more comfortable. My God I wanted this, so I checked the sticker. It was the first item that I actually checked the price on. It was somewhere between six and seven thousand dollars. Funny, thinking that the original chair, made of plywood, was meant to be affordable, functional furniture for the masses. I continued to sit for several minutes, as that was the only way I could enjoy this chair, as it would be a highly unlikely situation where it would ever end up in my living room. A friendly sales person came up and started asking questions about how I liked the chair. I expressed my opinion, perhaps a bit exuberantly, and got up and made my way to some other furniture, and my goal of finding the right sectional. I found it, and pretty quickly. Right in the front of the store sat a white leather sectional. I was a close clone to the couch I was meaning to replace, so I made the mistake, again, of sitting down to test it out. Looks here were terribly deceiving. This was way, way more comfortable than it looked. Again, I had a hard time getting up, just wanting someone to bring me a TV and some snacks. Our sales person eventually gave up on us and moved on, stating with a forced smile that we were free to enjoy the couch, and offered to bring us information on it. We politely declined, after seeing the tag. Whew. $14,000 and change. At that price they would surely throw in a nacho cheese fountain... This place has some really nice stuff, and a staff that isn't too pushy. Browse for fun, unless you have quite a bit more cash or credit than the average bear, in which case by all means spend away. I can't imagine not being satisfied with the furniture here. Just keep in mind that when they say "Design within reach" they mean that you can actually "reach" the furniture from a standard height, or slight horizontal extension.

    Great house numbers designed by the famous Richard Neutra.

    Should be called Design Without Reach. Super expensive. Service OK. Similar merchandise can be found elsewhere for a better price.

    First off, this is an upper-scale store that carries Herman Miller and I had been eyeing an Aeorn chair for a while.

This location is usually not very busy, so they are able to help you with questions about each sofa. I ended up going with one that I thought would be perfect for my new space, but after a few months it ended up still being too firm for me. I reached out to them and was able to return the couch even though it was a few months later. I decided to try out some of their other couch options and found a different one that I loved, so they were able to take the first couch when they delivered the second couch. The couch I selected the second time around, The Metro Sofa (Deep), is seriously the most comfortable couch ever and everyone who visits me comments on it being insanely comfortable. Obviously not cheap, but worth it for something you use as much as a couch.

Downside is the pricing but it is reflected in the quality, uniqueness, and customer service. I'm a return customer. I was pretty satisfied with my first experience so I came back again when I needed to further furnish my home. A year ago I ended up buying a couple foshay bookshelves. It was a lengthy process consisting of multiple visits over the course of a month to make sure it was "the one" we wanted for our home. After dropping a pretty penny for them, the shelves arrived after a couple months as expected. Delivery was very professional. There were two movers who moved in the bookshelves and parked them exactly where I wanted. They also ensured the shelves were leveled because our floor was a little uneven. They made sure I was completely satisfied before they left. As they installed the bookshelves, they noticed a defect in one of the shelving units, and went out of their way to report it so a new component could be delivered to my home free of charge. I went back recently to get a sofa. Their website made it very easy for me to map it out in my own home. Their store had the item available for me to see it in person. An assistant was there to give me a variety of fabric colors to consider. Now I'm just waiting for delivery (will update when it comes). The only downside of Room and Board is the pricing. It's a little higher than what you'd expect but it is reflected in the quality and uniqueness of their products and the customer service. I went in with the intention to only buy once so the price was worth it.

There was no other parking but the spot i parked in, a 20 minute parking spot. When I got back, a blonde woman came out and reprimanded me for parking in front of her store. She said it wasn't fair because "[I don't park down there, so you don't need to park here." She kept repeating that it wasn't fair I chose to park here. I tried explaining myself to her, but she kept talking over me, shaking her head and throwing her hands up in the air defensively. She walked away as I explained that I was only there for a few minutes. I'm sorry, but there were NO signs that said I couldn't park there. If you don't want people parking in front of your store, have a sign that says so, like Subway does. Who knows, maybe I was interested in checking out her store. But because she was pretty rude to me, I definitely won't be.

This afternoon I was on the search for a new dresser, and she was sassy and rude from the beginning. In our initial conversations when I was explaining to her I am trying to replace my existing dresser, she interrupted me mid sentence to say "well I don't KNOW what you have now" like girl... I'm literally explaining because YOU ASKED. I was still nice to her and afterwards my friend even asked me why I was so nice to her when she acted that way towards me. Now to the bad part... I found a dresser I was strongly considering to purchase and filming an in depth video to send my husband for confirmation, when Valerie comes up behind me saying something like "I need to get by you" (not excuse me or something neutral or going another way??) and TAPPED MY BUTT!!!!! She interrupted my video, she not only invaded my personal space but touched me inappropriately, and she had a bad attitude from the start. For context, I was bending slightly over while wearing a mid thigh length dress to show the specs of the dresser which made the interaction all the more inappropriate... I genuinely can't believe this happened and I hate to sound dramatic but this has unfortunately turned a good day sour. I did really like the dresser but was in shock after this interaction and left shortly after.
