Sectional sofas are growing in popularity – and for good reason! These sofas provide tons of comfortable seating, and they can be extremely versatile. BUT – a sectional can be a complicated piece of furniture to fit in your space properly.

At Reid’s Fine Furnishings, we are here to make sure that never happens to our customers! Here are three things to consider before you invest in a sectional sofa..

Our Upholstery is Different. Here’s Why…

When you are shopping for upholstery, how do you know if you are purchasing a quality piece? There are so many stores and brands out there, it can be difficult to separate the good from the bad.

At Reid’s Fine Furnishings, you can be sure that we only carry manufacturers who use the finest materials and construction practices. Here are just a few reason our upholstery is better than the big box stores.

Solid Wood Frames

To determine the quality of an upholstered piece, like a sofa or armchair, you need to start from the beginning: it’s frame. A lot of furniture frames today are constructed with weak materials, such as plastics and other lesser quality elements. At Reid’s, we understand that a piece of furniture is only as strong as it’s frame. Our manufacturers build their frames out of quality solid wood. Solid wood is strong, supportive, and lasts for decades.

8-Way, Hand Tied Cushion Support

In addition to the frame of your upholstery, the cushion support is also an important factor in the comfort and longevity of the furniture. Most of our upholstery is constructed with 8-way hand tied cushion support. This involves carefully positioning coil springs in the frame with fine twine in 8 directions, ensuring the springs stay in place. This method creates a strong, level foundation for the cushions to sit on, allowing weight to be evenly distributed throughout the piece. So why does that matter? It means you won’t get any sagging or slumping in the seat – a defect which plagues many furniture pieces on the market today.

High Quality Cushions

Our manufacturers put just as much time into the construction of their cushions as they do the frames. Using carefully sourced materials including foams and down feathers, everything from the firmness to the resiliency of the cushion is considered. And since everyone prefers a different type of cushion, many of our manufacturers offer several different options with various firmness levels.

Made to Order, Built to Last

We know that buying furniture can be a big investment, which is why we care so much about offering pieces that will last for decades. Not only can you trust that our furniture is built with the finest materials and construction practices, but we also ensure that you can get a piece tailor-made for your needs. Our sofas, chairs, and ottomans come with options for customization including various sizes, cushion styles, leg styles, endless fabric and leather options, wood stains and paint finishes! When you shop with us, you don’t have to settle for upholstery that doesn’t truly fit your vision. We are here to pair you with furniture that checks all your boxes!

So what are you waiting for? Stop trying to weed through the endless selection of sub-par furniture on the internet and visit our family-owned store instead! We have an expansive showroom in Roanoke and a Design Studio in Lynchburg – plus, we deliver all across central Virginia. Visit us today and let us help you find the furniture of your dreams!

3 Reasons Why Buying Our Furniture Is Better for the Environment

Did you know that how you furnish your home has an impact on our environment? Like many industries today, the furniture market is flooded with countless companies that use harmful manufacturing practices, resulting in wasted resources, pollution, and other stresses on our planet.

Don’t lose hope though. There is a far better alternative to this mass-produced, wasteful furniture! At Reid’s Fine Furnishings, we work with a selective group of manufacturers who create quality pieces and produce their work responsibly. Here are three reasons our home furnishings are better for the environment than big-box stores.

Our manufacturers implement green technologies and sustainable lumber practices.

Most large furniture manufacturers use harmful practices that result in wasted resources, deforestation, and excessive pollution from inefficient shipping methods and large factories. At Reid’s Fine Furnishings, we take no part in those types of companies. Instead, we focus on solid wood, American-made furniture from smaller manufacturers. Additionally, even our select group of overseas manufacturers, such as Ekornes Stressless, are environmentally focused. We have carefully selected our manufacturers based on the quality of their products and business practices. Our manufacturers are intentional about reducing waste, recycling, sourcing quality materials, and even replenishing America’s forests. Check out the links at the end of this article for more information on how our manufacturers are working to protect our environment!

Our furniture is made to order, not wastefully mass-produced.

Big Box stores are notorious for overstocking large inventories of furniture that may never actually be sold to customers. This epidemic of mass production contributes to the waste of our earth’s precious resources. Here at Reid’s, we avoid such waste using a made-to-order approach with our furniture suppliers. Our showroom is curated to provide a thorough selection of what our manufacturers offer, and then our customers get to place their order based on their exact specifications and needs. This made-to-order system not only avoids wasteful manufacturing, but it also gives our customers more options for customization!

Our high-quality, solid wood furniture will last for many years, unlike mass-produced, bargain furniture, which will need to be replaced frequently.

Unlike cheap, mass-produced furniture, our home furnishings are built to last for many years. When you buy from big box stores, you will likely have to replace your furniture every few years. At Reid’s Fine Furnishings, our customers can enjoy their furniture for decades — even generations! Long-lasting furniture means less stress on environmental resources, and it saves you money in the long-run … that’s a win-win situation for you and our planet!

We hope this article helps you to feel more informed and empowered as your shop for your home.

3 Reasons the 2022 Collector Piece From Stickley is Special

Every now and then, a piece of furniture becomes a piece of history. Stickley has been in the business of creating historically significant furniture for over 100 years.

The Stickley 2022 collector piece, the Meadowflower Cabinet, is particularly poignant. This piece holds the timeless beauty and craftsmanship that we expect from Stickley, but there are also deeper meanings to its design. Let’s take a look at 3 reasons this limited-time piece is so special.

1. Functional and Versatile

From a practical standpoint, this cabinet is an excellent addition to virtually any space. The Meadowflower Cabinet includes an adjustable shelf tucked away behind its doors. There is also a raised top that doubles its surface area, so there is plenty of room for books, décor, or anything else you need a place for. While this piece has its roots in mission style furniture, its elegant features and multiple finish options allow it to compliment many design styles.

2. Meaningful Symbolism

The focal point of this collector piece is undoubtably the beautiful wood inlay of flowers on each of the cabinet doors. But there is a deeper significance to the design that makes this piece special. Stickley explains: “the practice of assigning meaning to flowers and plants […] was popular in Victorian England when the Arts and Crafts movement was dawning […]. The Meadowflower Cabinet’s stylized arrangement of cornflower and mint expresses ‘comfort in difficult times,’ while the 22 points on the flowers symbolize the year.”

A theme of comfort amidst adversity is both historically significant and relatable to all people, and we believe the meaning behind this cabinet will make it a poignant antique for future generations.

3. Craftsmanship That Lasts for Generations

You might be wondering how we could make such a bold claim that the Meadowflower Cabinet will be a valued antique for future generations. Our confidence stems from Stickley’s impeccable craftsmanship spanning over 100 years. Stickley’s furniture has already proven to be timeless and historically significant. Constructed from solid wood here in the USA, this cabinet can truly be passed down from generation to generation.

So what are you waiting for? Order your 2022 Meadowflower cabinet before time runs out! Stickley is only manufacturing this cabinet for 2022, so this is your chance to own a piece of history. Visit or call our Roanoke showroom today to learn more about this collector piece and order your own today!
