We recently purchased a bedroom set from Dave at Amish Excellence. Initially, we had no idea what we wanted. We showed pictures of our walls, rugs and decor to Dave and he was able to help us choose a wood species and stain that fit perfectly with everything in our bedroom. The delivery men, Kyle and Cameron were first rate, extremely agile but careful, and assembled everything perfectly and even took the time to explain how it was all put together in case of future moves.

We stopped in today and spoke with the two gentlemen who own the shop. Everything was very reasonably priced - much lower than some of the other Amish shops nearby that we visited. They quoted us for several solid hard wood dining sets and now we just need to narrow it down and make a decision. We were very impressed with the selections and all the options available. They're also running a promotion this month where they will pay the sales tax and that in and of itself is an added bonus. :)

These days, most furniture offerings seem underwhelming, overpriced and of questionable quality. I wanted a desk, daybed and bed frames, crafted with real wood and thoughtful design. In time and after googling more extensively, I found Amish Excellence.My first visit was an epiphanic moment for me. Amish Excellence is small, yet filled with wonders and numerous options. The father/son owners were present and welcoming. It was such a relief to see warmer, more natural stains than the onslaught of trendy whites and grays. I knew I’d make my purchases there and began to dream out loud. Guy (father) and Dave (son), immediately listened and offered suggestions. Everything I wanted was possible. If a design wasn’t on the sales floor, or in their catalogues it could be created (within reason).I ordered a daybed, home office desk, leather swivel chair and two queen bed frames. They helped me design exactly what I wanted and if there were questions they contacted their Amish craftsman partners in Ohio. Everything is built on relationships there, which is why small businesses are precious.When the daybed arrived it was beyond my expectations. It’s the first thing you see when entering my home and it’s beautiful. The stain and quality of the wood is impressive. One thing I didn’t consider was how tight the mattress would be in this design, so I communicated with Dave and an insert was created. It’s perfect and I appreciate this may not have happened elsewhere. From the beginning of this relationship, they have found away to make things work because they really care.I’m truly astonished at an angry one-starred review, which still pops up even though I’ve changed my filter options. Know this... some people are impossible to satisfy. I was told from the beginning the wood may have imperfections. My pieces are stunningly natural and the stains are rich and true to the floor models.I’ve attached photos of each piece, so you can see for yourself. Check out the master bed frame, where they created a linen drawer underneath. Dream big and trust you are in good hands here. Thank you to Guy and Dave, as well as Phil and Jim (delivery/assembly) for helping me make my house a home.

I stumbled upon this company while shopping out in Franklin. The employees are knowledgeable, professional and the products are outstanding quality! Everything is completely customizable to the customers choice. If you’re looking for long standing quality furniture Amish Excellence is the place. It truly is excellent!

I visited this afternoon with my soon-to-be significant other. When we exited, we both agreed it was going to be our new playground as we build our new home. If we had a disposable income, we would have ordered everything then and there. It was like the Emerald City of custom furniture. Like the floodgates opened. Ahhhhhhh! Hehehe. The young man we spoke to was very knowledgeable about the Amish process in furniture building. He even showed us some custom designs he was working on. Like, they can create anything. We were totally blown away. Of all the furniture stores we visited today, this was the only one that gave us their undivided attention, was friendly and didn't act like they were bothered. Bassett Furniture virtually ignored us and Two Danes didn't acknowledge us at all. Going into Amish Excellence was a totally different experience. We can't wait to start working with them. A+++

Not Excellence. We worked with Guy to design a dining room sideboard and table. Delivery took more than 3 months. Together, they cost over $7,400 and to be sure, we were disappointed in the overall quality. The two pieces didn't match in terms of stain (see photos). The fit and craftsmanship of the carpentry is average at best (see photos). When we were sold, Guy told us that what sets Amish Excellence apart, is the desire to take care of their customers, unlike a big vendor. Unfortunately, when we asked Guy to see what could be done about the very poor stain and wood match, he became flustered and said there really was nothing he could do and that was to be expected..."I can't give you your money back." He offered to redo the sideboard, but not the table, and said there was no guarantee that the rework would be any better. Not exactly confidence building to us. We were not interested in our money back, and not wanting to wait another 3+ months. We are very disappointed in very expensive, average quality furniture, with little to no customer service. Unfortunately, this is why you want to go to a reputable furniture store that will confidently stand behind what they sell you.

This review is one part an actual and fair review of Amish Excellence and another part response to Mr. Lachiver's review posted below. As luck would have it, I was actually in the store readying my fifth purchase from this wonderful company when these people were also placing their order. Guy and his team told these people that everything they sell takes 90 days (three months) and anything customized would take a little longer, so it's not like these people weren't given that information. They also told them that each plank of REAL WOOD is unique and shows stain deviation and contrast differently with every individual piece. So of course one piece is going to look different from another. So, again, it's not like they weren't given that information either, because they were. Also, if I'm not mistaken, just about everything they ordered was something custom, something they outlined themselves and different from typical Amish styles and motifs. I look at Mr. Lachiver's pictures posted here and am flabbergasted by 1) how beautiful everything turned out and 2) how someone can be so inept as to the production and outcome of authentic hard wood furniture. And then to have the impertinence to refuse Guy's offer to re-do the sideboard (which is a proposal he really didn't have to extend) which would have been the most costly out of the two different pieces. It's priceless that they screwed themselves out of his overly generous offer just by being so entitled and impatient - and afterwards, to give this company a one-star review while such beautiful furniture remains displayed in their home. People never cease to amaze me.

As soon as we walked in the store I felt like I was at home. The furniture is of fantastic quality and in a style that I really enjoy. I had a good idea of what I was looking for when I went in and showed them a picture on my phone, they said we can build that and were able to give me a price in just a few minutes. The service is outstanding something you won't find at other furniture stores, Guy and Dave make you feel like part of the family. If you like solid wood well crafted furniture at reasonable prices you owe it to yourself to stop in and look around. It's time well spent even if you don't buy anything.

The furniture at this store is of the highest quality. We purchased our dining room table, benches and chairs. One of the table Leafs was not finished properly. Without question or hesitation they took the piece back and had it finished properly. It now matches the rest of the table beautifully. the customer service given by the staff was outstanding. They're very knowledgeable and helpful in any way possible. We will definitely be buying more pieces from this great company.
