Just a short note to say thank you. Our furniture arrived promptly and in perfect condition. The mover (Tri Isle) also was very professional. The furniture looks great and we are very pleased with the choices we made. Thanks again for the assistance and your prompt communications with us thru out the process!

Dave,
Just wanted to let you know that the chair delivery went off without a hitch and we are very happy with the results. Frankly working with you was one of our best furniture experiences, even though we took a bit of a leap of faith with chairs “sight unseen.”
Thanks again for all your help, feel free to forward this as our recommendation!

Hi Andrea-
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
San Francisco, CA
Noriega Furniture is the last great independent furniture store in the Bay Area. The quality of their furniture is exceptional. Although they are famous for their Stickley / Mission furniture, they have a wide and eclectic range of other styles and periods on the floor, and if it's not on the floor they can order it for you. They represent many high end lines of fine American-made and international furniture, of a high caiber that retailers like Macys don't even have catalogs for (let alone carry). Noriega's staff is incredible. I work with Andrea, who is absoutely fantastic, and who has become a wonderful friend as well as somebody whom I can count on to really guide me to the right pieces. And whether I am buying one of their great "on sale" bargains, or a high end Kindel reproduction worth several thousand dollars, Andrea gives me an incredible amount of experience, knowledge, time and care, and is simply the best. Michael, who owns the store, is a true expert in the furniture business, and is carrying on a family tradition. Stores like this just do not hardly exist anymore in our chain-store, trend-of-the-moment, cheap-shoddy-import permeated, prefabricated, mass-produced world, and should be treasured. And check out their sales -- they have some really good ones a few times per year where prices are slashed on some incredible pieces. Noriega Furniture is one of San Francisco's great "independents," and completely worth a visit if you are looking for truly quality furniture and accessories. And it's worth a trip to just savor the glorious scents of fine leather upholstery and fragrant, polished woods which greet you when you open the door. Don't be fooled by the store's seemingly small size -- there is a whole world of incredible furniture waiting behind the front door of Noriega Furniture, in one way or the other. If you want a piece which you will treasure, and will become an heirloom in its own right, this is the store for you. (I even bought a mattress here!! After laying on seemingly hundreds of mattresses at Mancini's, Sleep Train, Macys, and every other mattress store in town without finding what I wanted, I found it on the floor here. Noriega only had four mattresses on their sales floor, but one of them was PERFECT, the Aireloom brand, and I got a great "floor sample discount." Mattress nightmare solved!!)

Hi Dave,
The guys were here and they just brought in my Sofa. I wanted to let you know that I was really impressed by them. They were careful with my Sofa and had a bit of a hard time getting it in with the angle of my gate, etc. but they took it in stride and were quite efficient. I was also kind of surprised because I was scheduled from 2-4. I received a call telling me they would be late. In this day and age one rarely receives any sort of notice. (Customer Service seems to be lacking.) A 2 hr window is fairly small so I expected late. They actually arrived about 3:55.
Thanks for your customer service. I would say that considering all the unexpected delays, you have always been most helpful. I have been impressed by my entire experience. Anyone can look good if everything goes as scheduled, problems really separate the wheat from the chaff. I will probably be back in the near future to buy a swivel chair.
Regards,
Connie

We are so grateful for your invaluable help in our recent move. Your patience, design expertise, and in-depth knowledge of all the manufacturers made it possible for us to choose the perfect pieces.In addition, showing us how to blend our existing furniture with the new pieces was a real budget saver. Our house would never look this great without your help. Thanks again.
Sincerely,
Kathy

| Dear Dave: I absolutely love the rug in the dining room. The colors complement the furniture in the family room. The room looks elegant. Thanks again for your successful selection. Jeanne __________________________________________________________________________________________________ |

I purchased the chair for my wife to use with our built-in desk off the kitchen. She is very difficult to please. Her first comment to me upon seeing it was "I love it". To quote a famous mobster of our day, "Mission Accomplished"!
Thanks,
Mark

Mostly traditional furniture here, some quite expensive but not all. I bought a great leather club chair and ottoman a
few years ago and it was my favorite place to sit in my house. Customer Service was excellent and delivery to the east
bay was included in the very reasonable price. They even called me a few weeks after to make sure I was completely
happy with my purchase.

I enjoy finally having all the pieces we have looked forward to over the last several months. Last night we adjusted and tinkered, moved lamps, placed pottery and then nudged them all a couple inches this way and that. We really like the look and feel of the room now that we have it all done (for the minute).
Thanks so much for your help in selecting the remarkeable settle and chairs - not to mention the rug.
Take care,
PJ
