Room and Board makes very good furniture. When my wife and I moved into our new home a few years ago, we decided to invest in high quality furniture that would last decades. Originally we ordered a sofa from Interior Define that never arrived. Something wonky was going on with that company, many people never received their orders and they wouldn’t issue a refund. Thankfully we were still within the window to do a chargeback.

We have a sofa, coffee table, bed, nightstands, and some wall sconces from Room and Board. I am very impressed with the materials and build quality; I can tell everything will wear well and age nicely. Worth the investment, highly recommended.

I recently cut open a heavily used R&B sofa and found 1” thick plywood used through the frame. It was solid.

The down feather pillows didn’t do well—lots of feathers made their way out of the pillow.

I've never really enjoyed down cushions on a functional everyday couch. Feathers inevitably make they're way out of the pillow, through the cushion's exterior fabric and into your back/arm/leg/etc... or just around the room. They lose loft and aren't as easy to replace as say cutting a piece or two of foam and inserting those. My current couch has a down cushion on the top of the seated part and backrest and when they go I'll replace them with memory foam.

I got a Room and Board 65" Jasper in Cognac Leather right before the pandemic. I thought I was overpaying and it ended up sitting in shipping for 4 months because of lockdowns. I was predisposed to hate the thing but it's become one of my most reliable large purchases. Very solidly built. The leather has held up perfectly in front of bright windows.

Glad you mentioned this. When I did previous research before the quote that convinced me was that Room and Board couches have the highest resell value among furniture brands. I cannot find the source now but anecdotally it has appeared to be true.

Agreed. We researched a ton of sofas and landed on Room and Board. Super happy so far.

I just wish their designs weren’t so staid.

Wow you weren't kidding, those are absolutely hideous. And I thought IKEA furniture design was as minimal as it got.

I had a very good user experience ordering from Dreamsofa.com. They answered questions quickly, sent swatches, then sent more swatches when I needed more information, and their shipping tracking and notifications were helpful and accurate. The two guys from the shipping company they worked with were very nice. And I’m very happy with the sofa.

Yeah I have furniture from there mainly because it was the only showroom I could find that hide a wide selection + was mostly solid wood or veneered cabinet grade plywood.

The TV stand I bought from there shows no signs of warping a few years later and has had a 70 pound TV sitting on it the entire time.

The pricing was also pretty reasonable for solid walnut that was made in the USA.

Their beds are also great. It's the only solid, high-quality furniture I've ever owned.

It's not cheap, but easily much higher quality than anything else in the same price point.
