Excellent quality furniture. They have free designer assistance in helping you select and arrange your furnishings. You can special order and choose from a wide variety of products and colors. They also have a large floor selection to view products in person. They'll deliver your order and pick up old mattresses. Nice, pleasant, and helpful staff.

Although I loved working with the designer and she gave the best advice, Ethan Allen of 2023/24 is not the same quality as the Ethan Allen of 1995. Our $8k sectional was not made correctly, and they fixed the problem to my liking 100%, but the cushions look like they are a year old already and we are 125 and 165 pounds, so there's that. I turn them over daily so they don't settle, but one shouldn't have to do that. The beautiful coffee table scratches VERY easily, we have no pets or kids, super careful, so another bummer. The dining table is awesome, so I would suggest getting your couches/chairs/sectionals somewhere else (Bungalow maybe) and stay away from the Connell coffee table, anything wood really, smooth finish. Get the weathered finish like we did for our dining table, and you'll be happy.

We loved working with Laura Mitchell and her design was perfect. Laura helped us blend family heirloom pieces with new furniture to fit the space correctly. We tried a different layout, than what Laura originally planned with one of the rooms, and decided to go back the original Whiskey Room idea. Of course her design was spot on!!!We love how much thought went into our design and our home feels warm, inviting and that friends/family want to stay awhile! I look forward to working with Laura for the finish details like artwork to truly finish off these spaces.Thank you again for all your help with our home Laura and I look forward to working with you again. Laura, Please feel free to drop in for a coffee or cocktail.

Val Hartl is a very talented designer who listens and develops amazing floor plans and furniture ideas. I have used her for the first floor of my open plan home and it looks incredible. She gives honest opinions and respects my decisions. She is a true pleasure to work with, and has a gift for making overwhelming projects feel manageable. Highly recommend!Update: I recently completed a bedroom project with Val and it is stunning! Val continues to exceed my expectations. She truly listens and asks great questions to ensure she understands the look I am seeking. Val is amazing!!!

My husband and I recently worked with Sita at Ethan Allen in Boise to design and purchase all new furniture for our living room. The results were amazing and the furniture completely transformed the room! Sita suggested fabrics and colors I wouldn't normally think to consider normally. But the final result speaks for itself and we couldn't be happier! Beautiful quality furniture and excellent customer service! Who could ask for more? Ethan Allen is by far the most elegant furniture of the highest quality and workmanship in the area. Thank you Sita and all of the other folks who assisted us at Ethan Allen! Our experience was excellent! Teresa V.

I have purchased several pieces from Ethan Allen and I'm always impressed with the quality.I've utilized their design consultant, Val Hartl on two occasions. Val has an amazing eye and provides excellent advice on the right pieces for my project. She is thoughtful and patient with my process on picking pieces for my home. She has been to my house to measure and provides me with CAD drawings that greatly enhance my ability to make an informed decision.I highly recommend Ethan Allen if you're looking for quality pieces for your home that will last and I cannot overstate my appreciation and accolades for Val Hartl. She's fantastic!

We first shopped at Ethan Allen in Boise to purchase a bed that we had researched. We met Val Hartl on that visit and happy to say she became our designer. Val has helped walk us through every room in our home understanding our tastes and tying a theme throughout the house. We appreciate the Ethan Allen quality and the commitment to make sure all products are delivered in great shape and any installation is followed up to make sure it was done correctly. Working with Val is like having a personal designer.

This review is about the Ethan Allen store but also is a 'fan letter' for talented interior designer Val Hartl who is on staff there. Working with Val was as joy-filled an experience for professional interior design and home goods buying as we've had across the six cities we've lived in with eight homes among them where we worked with skilled independent interior designers. Rewarding for us too as Val guided our decisions for an update of our home office and in the process we discovered finishing touches of pillows and ottoman for our great room. Also spirit lifting for us because Val made it easy and fun as she created design schemes to consider with options assembled for us to take home to look at in our spaces. The result is something that feels "...just like us only better..." in ways we could not have envisioned without her help. Val's listening and communication skills are great as was her patience and good humor in dealing with a couple "at the end of their designer rope" by the time we walked in the showroom. (In our defense, this was after dilly-dallying with an independent designer who across three months and several hundred dollars fee had delivered to us no usable result.) It required only a couple of visits to the Ethan Allen design workroom in a week's time and with Val's creative guidance we had selections made and orders placed for area rug, chairs, upholstery fabrics, leather and even details, Val sees every detail, like finishing trims on custom pillows. If I could still dance (we'll get back to this), I'd do a happy one. FREE DESIGN SERVICE = PRICELESS: Design service is free here and it is also priceless for homeowners to work with an experienced professional. The drill at any Ethan Allen is when you walk in the person at the showroom desk will welcome you and if you don't have a designer appointment scheduled, they will call up a designer to offer as much or as little assistance as you want as you browse the store. You can call and schedule an appointment with Val, and we recommend it, but she assures us that all of her colleagues at the Boise store are great to work with if you walk in. (All have design bona fides. See Boise store page: ethanallen.com/en_US/sto… ) Ethan Allen corporate runs the web catalog main page and there is something they could improve. Fer shure. So a designer in store can also help provide insight that the web catalog cannot, not just for furnishings but also fabrics, area rugs, lighting and window coverings.BRAND / BUYING AUDIENCE: Perched at the upside of mid-range or low side of up-range for price point with products for buyers across all ages and stages of home ownership from starting out to feathering family home nests to scaling down in empty nester mode and with styles from mid-Century to contemporary to transitional to classic. But Ethan Allen was not a brand we used much in other homes in cities where we lived and shopped furnishings in premium brands above this price point working with independent interior designers to make it easy to do given my limited mobility. (I have had multiple sclerosis since college days and umpteen decades later mobility and energy are both challenged and design professionals did the 'legwork', metaphorically and actually, to narrow down options. There's the "if I could still dance..." tie in from opening.) Ethan Allen wasn't on their professional radar (the brand didn't offer incentives to 'the trade') and that means only occasionally was the brand on ours when buying on our own. But limited access to quality furniture options in Boise led us to the Ethan Allen here in 2016 and the good product and customer care experience then led us back now. LOCAL STORE OWNERSHIP MAKES THE DIFFERENCE FOR CUSTOMER CARE: This is one of very few Ethan Allen stores that are not corporate run but with local franchisee and the proof to customers of local ownership is sometimes in the pudding of problem resolution. To share example from our 2016

It was rewarding for us too as Val guided our decisions for area rug, chairs and upholstery for an update of our home office and in the process we discovered finishing touches of pillows and ottoman for our great room. We are grateful to Val for creating something that feels “…just like us only better..." in ways we could not have envisioned without her help. Designer service is free to shoppers at Ethan Allen but it is also priceless with experienced professionals like Val in the mix. Ethan Allen was not a brand we used much in other cities where we lived and where we shopped furnishings above this price point. But limited access to options in Boise and very good experience with this local store owner (the Boise Ethan Allen is one of very few in the US that is not corporate owned) and a designer who worked here seven years ago as well as being pleased with the quality of the Ethan Allen products we purchased is what brought us back to the showroom this time. This time for an excellent design experience with Val. Re the showroom layout, since my wife is a shopper and buyer who has had multiple sclerosis since college years, I'll offer that this Ethan Allen is not only light and bright but accessible to people of all physical abilities. And Ethan Allen has products for buyers across all price points and ages and stages of home ownership and with design styles, from mid-Century to contemporary to transitional to classic.

We worked with Laura in trying to design and blend two different styles of decor and she totally rocked it!! We now have a home that is both modern contemporary yet soft, warm and "cozy"She was always great at responding to our questions (especially once we pulled the trigger and ordered everything......I am totally impatient!) and addressed our concerns and was always helpful in ensuring we got what we wanted and went beyond what I think most designers would have done.Highly recommended and we are very happy!!!

My husband and I have remodeled several rooms in our home and had the pleasure of working with Wendy Wallace each time. She is a fabulous designer with a great eye for colors and fabrics. We really enjoyed the experience and felt cared for and confident from purchase through delivery. Wendy listens very carefully and has a good talent for providing a beautiful result in what is the customers most prized space.

Thank you Sharon for helping us pick out our new sofas. From helping us with selecting a design and the color, we could not be more pleased. Really appreciate your level of knowledge and expertise and providing us with warranty and maintenance on our new sofas.

Wendy Wallace was amazing! She helped me pick out living and dining room furniture for a house that wasn’t even completed. She is very personable and fun to work with. She also came out after the furniture was delivered to make sure all was well. We had a great Ethan Allen experience!
