Testimonials

We are so happy to have come to this business to build our little kitchen island! We had seen the beautiful furniture at Futon Designs / Green Designs over the years so knew our custom order was going to turn out great. But it was even better than we could have imagined! Ben is a creative artist who puts the utmost care into his projects, and boy does it show. The furniture could not be any more lovely and perfect. The wood is so pretty and smells so good we are actually petting and sniffing our kitchen island. He chose high quality hardware for it that looks fantastic and functions so smoothly. He was super nice and professional and kept us informed of progress and pick-up dates. He was extremely patient and accommodating when we had a delay in pick-up. The kitchen island is not just functional furniture -- it's an art piece that we will enjoy the rest of our lives. We are grateful to have been able to find an affordable work of art that is such high quality and made sustainably. Ben is a friendly artist-carpenter who you'll wish you could give a 90% tip to when you see the finished project.

THANKS Ben, and I hope you and your family can continue this wonderful business for as many more years as you wish to.

We were looking for the most functional piece of furniture for our sunroom. I found Ben’s website while surfing late one night. I called him the next day and set up an appointment to go see his work. We were so impressed with his knowledge of wood and how unique and beautiful each project turned out. He explained the process and the time he takes with each piece. He delivered our futon on schedule and we couldn’t be happier! Everyone who sees it is so impressed. Thank you Ben!!!

We are thrilled with our new bed. It is beautiful and the quality is second to none. Ben is a real artist but is also a pleasure to work with. He and his son delivered the bed and set it up for us. We highly recommend them!

My family was looking for a "real wood" futon frame and I found Ben online. I ordered over the phone and Ben was very detail specific and helpful. I drove up from Florida to pick it up and was really just amazed at what a beautiful work of art this piece of furniture is. Ben is an amazing artist, not only a furniture maker. He and his sons loaded and packed the frame for me in the truck and were truly wonderful, kind people. My family loves this piece of furniture and it only makes it more enjoyable that such a lovely person made it! Thank you so very much!

Ben showed up exactly on time , and set up my futon quickly and professionally.

Ben is an excellent craftsman and also handles his customers very well. He is honest, does not promise something and then not deliver, and stays in contact throughout the process. He built a queen bed and two side tables for me, and I am beyond satisfied. It is what I wanted and then some. Great job Ben!

Ben recently designed, built and delivered our king size bed. He also designed built and delivered queen and twin sized futons. We are extremely happy with the final products. Not only is the workmanship fantastic, they comfortable and functional pieces of furniture. Also, they are truly unique works of art. They are a blend of creativity, artistry and craftsmanship. Each one is unique, made to order and specific to our needs. Ben made the entire process from start to finish a pleasure. We would highly recommend him and would have him build more furniture for us again. We are glad we found him.

Ben created an absolutely beautiful master bedroom suite of furniture - king bed, 2 night stands, and a dresser. He is a very talented craftsman and the customer service (and attention to detail) were amazing. Thanks.

We've ordered two king mattresses over the years from Ben who has always been truly wonderful to work with. Our kids are now old enough for twin beds and we are getting ready to order two twins from him. Thank you, Ben!

I contacted Ben after walking past his closed shop and seeing a gorgeous item in his shop window. I asked him to create a custom coffee table to my dimensions similar to one he had sold prevously (mutliple wood types used). He worked with me on alternative shipping to make it a bit more in my price range and delivered a GORGEOUS table that was a birthday gift to my husband. My husband LOVES it. Thank you Ben for such a great piece and for your communication along the way. You are excellent and i hope to do more business with you in the future.
