It was a great experience for me and I will definitely return when I'm in the market for furniture. Check out my comments above.
Description of Work: I went to Marstan's to look for chairs for my new home in Chester county. I have an antique mahogany dining room table in need of chairs to closely match it in color. Since they deal in unfinished furniture I was planning to stain the chairs myself (my last experience doing this was about 25 years ago). When I walked into the store with my cane in hand I was impressed with the large inventory spread through out the store...and that was just the 1st floor. The particular items I was interested in were on the 2nd floor. Julie, the pleasant and accommodating sales person directed me upstairs to see if there was anything I might be interested in. They had so many types of chairs it was hard to narrow it down. I was on my own , which I liked, without any sales pressure. After 20 minutes or so Julie came up to offer help and went back downstairs to check on the availability of my first choice. I needed four chairs and they didn't have enough and they were being discontinued...just my luck. Julie made a few suggestions and even saved me a trip back upstairs and brought two other selections back down to show me. I ended up liking one of her suggestions and they were about $40.00 less per chair. I decided to have a professional finisher take care of the staining because the cost was reasonable and since the chairs were in stock it would only take about three weeks. Now it was time to choose a stain and Julie patiently showed me dozens of samples before I chose one. At the entrance to the store they had a 3 piece patio bistro set on display which happened to be something I was looking for but never expected to see at an unfinished furniture store. I ended up getting that and it looks great on my patio. In about three weeks I'll be picking up my chairs and have every reason to believe I'll totally like them. If you are in the market for furniture check them out...they have something for every room of your house.I

I WENT TO MAR-STAN'S AND THEY HAD CABINETS BUILT TO MY SPECIFICATIONS. THEY CONSTRUCTED TWO 3'6' AND ONE 2'6' CABINETS FOR A TOTAL LENGTH OF 9'6'. THEY WERE ALSO 66' TALL. THE CABINETS FIT PERFECTLY UNDER THE SOFFIT. THEY ALSO WOULD HAVE FINISHED THE CABINETS (STAIN & POLYURETHANE), BUT I ELECTED TO DO IT MYSELF TO SAVE ON THE COST. WHEN I FIRST WENT TO THEIR SHOWROOM, THE SALES PEOPLE ALLOWED ME TO BROWSE THE STORE AT MY LEISURE. WHEN I WAS READY, I APPROACHED THEM WITH MY DILEMMA. THEY HELPED ME IMMEDIATELY AND PULLED OUT CATALOGUES TO SEARCH WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. WITHIN 20 MINUTES I HAD MY ORDER PLACED AND WAS VERY EXCITED. IT ONLY TOOK 4 WEEKS FOR THE CABINETS TO ARRIVE AT THEIR STORE AND THEY CALLED ME THE DAY THEY RECEIVED THEM. THE EMPLOYEES WERE GREAT AND THE CABINETS LOOK GREAT IN MY OFFICE.
Description of Work: I JUST FINISHED CONSTRUCTING AN OFFICE FOR MYSELF IN MY BASEMENT AND I NEEDED BOOKCASE CABINETS THAT WOULD FIT UNDER A SOFFIT. NO STORE CARRIED THE SIZES THAT I NEEDED.
