FAQ
-
Where is your furniture made?Hickory, North Carolina – the furniture capital of the world!
-
What does “buying direct” mean?We’ve cut out the middleman. So, when you make a purchase from our ecommerce site, the product is shipped directly from our manufacturer to your home – which means offering the highest quality at an exceptionally affordable cost.
-
How do you ensure a quality product?We take pride in our products and have spent hours selecting materials and perfecting construction that will last you a lifetime. While our manufacturer has a long standing reputation of craftsmanship in the North Carolina furniture industry, if something isn’t right with the product, we won’t sell it or send it to a customer until it is.
-
What makes furniture “heirloom”?To us, heirloom is synonymous with timeless and long-lasting. Think your grandma’s antique dining room table, but better and more modern. Our furniture’s style and construction will withstand the test of time, making your sofa, chair, or ottoman something that will travel with you for life and can be passed on to future generations.
-
Why is buying quality furniture considered sustainable?Much like the “fast fashion” industry, “fast furniture” is built to last 2-5 years at best, only to then be thrown away for the next trendy or convenient product. Buying quality, heirloom furniture means making one purchase for a lifetime – potentially never ending up in a landfill.
-
How long will your furniture last?Our High Performance fabric, durable materials, and craftsman construction combines to equal a product that will last a lifetime – but obviously, accidents and normal wear and tear can occur. Refer to our warranty policies for more specifics!
-
What makes the fabric “high performance”?Culp’s LiveSmart fabric line is designed to be moisture repellent, stain resistant, and heavy duty – ready to stand up to all life’s messes. Refer to our cleaning and care instructions for more information.
-
What makes your furniture “mobile friendly”?Our furniture breaks down into easy-to-carry pieces that easily fit in the back of a standard car. No yelling “Pivot!” during your next move.
-
How can furniture I put together myself be considered high quality?Furniture doesn’t have to weigh a ton and arrive in one massive piece to be considered high quality. Our materials are of the highest quality grade, and our assembly construction offers the same stability of a traditionally built piece of furniture. We hope we can change the perceptions and expectations of what high quality, heirloom furniture can be!
-
Is your furniture heavy?All put together? Yes. While in pieces before assembly? No! We made sure our products are mobile-friendly and easy to carry for any average person. However, our frames are made of solid, high quality wood materials meant to last a lifetime, so once assembled our products are appropriately hefty.
-
How do I know if the furniture will fit in my space?Because our furniture is delivered in multiple pieces and boxes, you won’t have any trouble fitting through doors or going up stairs (even a spiral staircase – trust us, we’ve been there!) Dimensions for fully assembled sofas, chairs, and ottomans are listed in the product description for each item – so just be sure to measure.
-
Is your furniture comfortable?Of course! Our durable foam cushions offer just the right amount of support and give for your next Netflix binge.
-
How customizable does customizable mean?All our sofas, chairs, ottomans, and toss pillows come in the base White High Performance Fabric. We offer a variety of slipcover and pillow cover fabrics – from solids to prints, from neutrals to bright colors – that can be purchased along with the furniture. Depending on how many slipcovers you wanted to purchase, you could customize your furniture each season or with your changing mood. We are working to offer more and more fabric options – so stay tuned!
-
Can I mix and match fabric?Yes! In fact, we encourage it :)
-
What do the fabrics feel like?While we wish we could offer a touch-through-the-screen options, science hasn’t made that possible yet. However, we can assure you all our fabrics are soft, comfortable, and luxurious to the touch. Some of our fabrics, such as a tweed, will have more texture than others, but it only enhances the design.
-

What If I don’t want a slip cover?All our furniture comes in the base White High Performance Fabric, so if white is your vibe, then no need for a slipcover. Slipcovers are not required to be purchased with your furniture pieces.
