    I began my kitchen renovation in December 2020 and was searching for a banquette instead of a built-in bench. I found this piece on their website but when I saw that it was precisely the measurements I had allotted, I knew it was meant to be. Emily was responsive, sent sample fabrics and answered all my questions. They only drawback has been with COVID. I waited about 4 months for delivery. Not Brass & Burl’s fault. Would work with them again.

    I ordered a Bella Notte king pillowcase from Brass & Burl. The pillowcase was $170. I waited months for the product to arrive, which was longer than expected given Covid delay. They sent me the wrong item. I contacted Brass & Burl and they reached out to Bella Notte. Shortly afterwards I received a king pillow case but it was not the correct color. I contacted Brass & Burl again and sent a photo of the yellow pillowcase I received next to another Bella Notte pillowcase in Pearl (in the light pink shade I was expecting). What arrived was nothing like the light pink pearl color I was expecting, so the product does not match at all with a Bella Notte throw pillow I have in Pearl or any of my bedding in a similar shell pink color.

    Instead of exchanging the item or offering a refund, I was told my only option was to order another pillowcase and a matching color and two additional pillowcases in a lace fabric in Pearl to go over those pillowcases. Their solution was for me to spend considerably more money to compensate for their poor quality control. I told Brass & Burl I was extremely disappointed. In short, they responded that there was nothing they could do about and the item could not be returned. They seemed happy to take my money but when there was an issue they washed their hands of it.

    Response from Brass & Burl

    Lily was trying to match a pillowcase to a discontinued collection and purchased a pillowcase from a different collection, thinking it would match but it did not. The manufacturer hand dyes all of their materials so the colors look very different depending on the fabric that is used. The two items in the photo are from two different collections so the colors would never match. We sent the customer exactly what she ordered.

      We placed an order with Brass and Burl for two art pieces from a company that they distributed. That company (which is no longer offered on the website) delayed the delivery by over six months, but the team at Brass and Burl did everything in their power to accelerate the process, keeping us informed along the way and doing their utmost to ensure we received our order. They definitely went above and beyond and we are so grateful. Would 100% reorder from them anytime. Could not recommend more highly.

      Emily from Brass & Burl sourced us the most awesome chairs ever. There was some delay with production (as tends to happen with such things) and Emily, unasked, got us a nice % back for the trouble. Oh, and I should say, purchasing from Emily saved us a *significant* portion over the same chairs from, e.g., One Kings Lane. I would definitely recommend Brass & Burl to any other furniture shoppers and Brass & Burl is now my first stop for any furniture search.

      I ordered a bedroom dresser from Brass & Burl and after a short time the top drawer closing mechanism started to malfunction. They were very responsive from the start and the first person who contacted me stayed with the case throughout. Initially they were going to send a repair person to look at the dresser but then decided to send me a completely new one. Excellent customer service!

      I recently moved into a new apartment and needed new lamps. I was looking for something in the sea blue family. I found some gorgeous lamps on Brass & Burl's website and, with the help of Emily's guidance in terms of colors/style, selected a variety of unique and beautiful blue/green lamps for my living/dining area (4 in total). I am so happy with these lamps! They have transformed the room by adding a nice pop of color and sophistication to the space. I regularly get compliments on them from friends and family. I am very happy with the quality of the items and with the customer service I received. Emily was excellent! I will definitely think of Brass & Burl for future purchases.

      The piece of furniture I ordered arrived with a manufacture's defect. Brass & Burl's website states they will repair any minor manufacture's defect. The third party company Brass & Burl sent the piece of furniture to for the repair damaged it to the point it could not be repaired. Brass & Burl (Adam and Emily) refuse to replace the piece of furniture on the statement they used a restoration company recommended by the furniture manufacturer. I emailed the manufacturer and replied stating they DO NOT give out recommendations of furniture repair/restorations companies. I have turned the matter over to my credit card company. All communications with involved parties involved was done via email. Lesson learned; better to pay a little more and have returns accepted by proprietor.

      Melissa is an unstable woman with a history of lashing out when she does not get her way. See this comment she left regarding a company on google: Haverford Hardwood Floors (Havertown, PA).

      Melissa received an item, but contacted us later on with a damage complaint. This is against our policy because of consumer fraud, but we helped her anyway. The damage was repaired by a local firm to 100%. NOTE: The repairman also refused to go back to Melissa's house because of her abusive nature!

      Love the coffee table that I received from Brass and Burl. I was struggling to decide between three and Emily, one of the owners, was so helpful in guiding me in the right direction. I provided my room dimensions and a few pictures of the furniture I already owned and she gave her advice. I am so happy with the one we chose, it pulls my entire living room together. The quality is better than anything I've owned before. I'm sure it'll be a piece that my family and I treasure for a long time.

      I can only say good things about this online retailer - placed the order - it came in fast - as expected - the site has many nice functionalities to search by price or type of furniture. Overall very professional and prices are reasonable for high quality stuff. I would use them again. I bought 2 lamps there and a big armoire.

      Would love write how much I love B&B's furniture, but I never got past the lack of customer service. On 2 July I spoke to a gentlemen about a list of questions that are not covered on the website (to include an error). In order to answer my questions about quality and construction, he said he had to contact the manufacturer, but in the meantime he would be able to send me three material swatches. Forward to approximately 10 July: no information and no swatches. I initiated follow-up correspondence asking if these requests had fallen through the cracks (stuff happens, I get it) and was told by a woman due to the 4th of July holiday, communications were delayed and she would investigate, get the answers to my questions and ensure swatches were sent.

      I also reminded her of the website error that had yet to be corrected. Now 12 days on from that second correspondence and still nothing. No follow up by B&B even to say "Hey, we haven't forgotten you," no concrete answers about construction or warranty (during the original conversation it was more of "take my word for it"), and perhaps the most simple of all tasks...no swatches. Have money in my pocket and a desire for quality furniture from a company who gives a damn throughout the entire process. Brass & Burl is not that company.

      We apologize for the lack of swatch availability. This manufacturer has stopped producing in the U.S. and we believed they would still be able to continue operation through the summer. We informed the customer.

      I'm so pleased to have discovered this terrific online home furnishings store! The selection is vast, the quality of their products is very high and all of that is topped off with competitive prices! We ordered an area rug and a brass topped cocktail table to update our living room; both truly exceeded our expectations. There was a little hiccup around the shipment of the table and Emily very quickly got it sorted out.

      I have nothing but good things to say about Brass & Burl and will certainly be coming back as I continue to furnish my apartment. From the onset, Emily worked with me and my boyfriend to find exactly what we were looking for and what best suited our space and existing furniture. We looked at several other furniture sites and didn't find anything that rivaled the quality or selection here. Our favorite piece is the Akron Counter Stools (we purchased in Storm Leather) - we get compliments every time we have guests over! We also couldn't believe that free shipping is offered at all times - so nice not to have to time purchases with promotion emails, etc.

      We had been searching high and low for large, high quality "poufs" for our living room. It seemed every site we came across only offered smaller poufs, or if we did find large ones they were not good quality. Needless to say we were thrilled to find Brass & Burl carrying exactly what we were looking for! Their website was extremely easy to navigate and the high res images of the poufs ensured we were getting what we wanted. One of the co-owners, Adam, was even kind enough to answer a few questions we had over the phone. Excellent customer service! We purchased two poufs from the Oak Cove collection and they have been great. Even our puppy, Beil Reg, is enjoying them for his afternoon nap.
