“I had an *amazing* experience with Derik at VanVleet Woodworking! I’ve grown increasingly frustrated with the poor quality (and discordantly high price tag) of furniture from big box stores, so I decided to look into custom furniture and I’m so glad I did. Derik was incredibly patient, detail oriented and reasonably priced — he sent me dozens of emails to make sure I got exactly what I wanted, and didn’t cut any corners in making this gorgeous solid ambrosia maple coffee table with soft close drawers. I will never go back to West Elm, and am already conspiring to ask him to complete more projects. This coffee table was a bigger investment than most of my furniture, but it can be sanded and refinished and will pay for itself several times over for the next couple decades. So happy with my purchase!”
