Piece of furniture I had reupholstered: A 40+ year old rocker-recliner that I grew up with…read more Pros: Rudy's did a beautiful job with the upholstery. They picked up and dropped off the chair for a nominal fee. They were patient while I decided which fabric I wanted and called the supplier for a sample when the one fabric I found on the supplier's site wasn't in one of their sample books. Cons: For 40 years this was the chair people in my family with low back issues sat in. When my mom had back spasms it was her chair. When my dad had a compression fracture in his back, it was his chair. When I slipped a disc, it was my chair. One of the support springs broke so I needed it re-upholstered. It is now not a chair for someone with low back issues. I don't know what they did (Wrong density in the seat cushion? Wrong amount of filling in the back cushion?) but I can no longer sit in what used to be my favorite chair for any length of time without having low back pain. The lumbar support is just gone. It breaks my heart.

Alan (Rudy) was helpful in selecting the fabric, and let me take several sample books home. The shop turned around the seats in time for the holidays, actually ahead of the time he had estimated. The work seems very well done and the prices were reasonable given the cost of the fabric we chose. The shop definitely comes off as ramshackle when you first visit - o.k., even from driving by! - but it's literally a WORKshop, not a showroom.

I wish I could give them a thousand stars…read more Probably 40 years ago, my grandmother gave me a chair that had been in her home forever. I loved it, and had it in my apartment for years. My cats destroyed the fabric, and the chair moved to the basement, where it remained until we moved to a new house about a month ago. I almost threw the chair out, but couldn't bear the thought of parting with it. So I contacted Vinny at Miro Upholstery, and he couldn't have been nicer. I went to the store to pick out a fabric, and Vinny suggested that I take some fabric books home. He gave me several books, my husband and I went through them and selected one. Miro picked up the chair and the fabric books, and today, about a month later, the chair was delivered. It is more beautiful than I could have imagined. New foam, new fabric, they touched up the wood - it's an antique chair that looks brand new. I'm completely thrilled. This was an excellent experience, and I would highly recommend Miro Upholstery.

Who knew that furniture disassembly and reassembly was a thing? I certainly didn't until I treated…read moremyself to an extra cozy Boston Interiors sectional and the sofa portion wouldn't fit up my front or back staircase. Whoops! I had already been waiting two months for delivery, so to say I was disappointed is an understatement. Then the panic kicked in. Since it was a custom sectional, I would get majorly dinged if I returned it. But what other options were there? That's where Melo and Sons came in. The delivery guy put me on the phone with his manager to talk it over. Yes, returning the sectional was an option, as was taking out my dining room window to bring the sofa portion in that way (hell no!) Or... I could have some pros disassemble it at their warehouse then reassemble it in my living room. Of my three options, the third was the winner by a longshot. As I was the first delivery of the day, I patiently waited until Melo and Sons opened then gave them a ring. Joanne immediately answered and put my nerves at ease. It was obvious I wasn't the first numpty to purchase a too big piece of furniture that needed saving by them. After providing her all the requested information, I had a delivery date for about three weeks out. By the time my Boston Interiors salesperson called to discuss the failed delivery, everything was already tucked and tied with Melo and Sons. When the big day finally arrived, Mike and George showed up right on time and quickly got to work. They laid down moving blankets to protect the floor then brought up the disassembled sofa in several carefully wrapped pieces. Aside from being the consummate professionals, they were funny to boot. It took them less than two hours to reassemble the sofa and at long last reunite it with its other half. That evening, after three long months, I finally got to relax on and enjoy my sectional in its full glory. All thanks to Melo and Sons and their niche specialty.
