When is the Best Time to Buy Furniture?
Are you thinking about new furniture and wondering about any upcoming furniture sales? In America, many major furniture retailers run holiday sales on President's Day, Fourth of July and Memorial Day. The sale events often promote furniture for outdoor spaces in the spring and living room furniture in fall and winter. Let's explore shopping for furniture at Dutch Craft, our local Amish furniture store in Berlin, Ohio.
When is the Best Time of Year to Buy Furniture?
The best time of year to buy new Amish furniture depends on your circumstances. Rather than running a President's Day or Memorial Day sale, we offer great deals on quality furniture all year. Since we first opened our showroom in 2009, we have never run an annual sale. We keep it simple; you won't miss good deals just because you are shopping for indoor furniture in May.
That being said, there are several factors to remember when shopping for Amish furniture. Following these guidelines can help you determine the best time of year to buy furniture for your home.
Remember that Amish Furniture is Custom Made to Order
As you think about when you want to have the new furniture ready to use, remember that most Amish furniture is custom made. Our local furniture makers in Ohio build bedroom, dining, living and office furniture from scratch. This allows you to create the best size and style for your space but takes time. Our team requires 8-10 weeks for most custom-built furniture.
Allow Time for a White Glove Delivery Service
In addition to the custom build time, remember to allow time for home delivery. Our delivery is a White Glove, in home service by a team of Amish furniture delivery specialists. No curb side or freight delivery, ever. Across the lower 48 United States, allow an additional 2-4 weeks for delivery depending on your location.
Following this timeline, a good rule of thumb is to order your new dining room set by August for hosting Thanksgiving. The best time of year to buy bedroom furniture is September if you are setting up for overnight holiday guests. Determined to setup a more productive home office this New Year? Order a custom wood desk by October.
While that is the ideal timeline, we understand that sometimes life happens and you don't have time to wait. For that reason, we keep customer favorite bedroom sets, dining sets, desks, and living room furniture in stock. Browse our in-stock Amish furniture online for inspiration. Pickup in stock furniture at our showroom the same day or call to schedule deliveries starting in 1-2 weeks.
What is the Best Time to Buy Bedroom Furniture that is Amish made?
If you are eyeing a name brand mattress or adjustable bed from a large retailer, watch for sales on major holidays. This may be a perfect time for that new Amish bedroom furniture, especially if you are clearing the room for new carpeting or paint.
Much like mattresses, you may find that you'd like to purchase new dining furniture at the same time as new kitchen appliances. Many stores promote sales on appliances at regular intervals throughout the year. Shop for Amish dining furniture at the same time and upgrade your kitchen to create a space you love.
For any home renovations or updates, keep us posted on the timeline. We are happy to accommodate your schedule and understand that renovation delays are often inevitable. We keep your new furniture wrapped in blankets and shrink wrap in our climate-controlled warehouse until your room is ready.
Moving to a New Home
Solid wood bedroom and dining furniture is extremely heavy. You may want to wait until you move into your new home to purchase new bedroom furniture. This reduces the risk of knicks and damages happening during a move. Let our delivery team handle the heavy lifting as you move to a new home.
What about Amish Furniture Clearance Sales?
As you browse our extensive Amish furniture collection online, shop our sale page for especially great deals. These items are often extra inventory or floor models that we are replacing with new colors or styles. The high amounts of custom furniture we build ensure in a few items that ended up the wrong color or scratch and dent items. Our clearance sale items have limited quantities, often with only one per item.
Now that you understand we do not run annual sales, take the time to browse. Shop our extensive gallery of Amish furniture online and contact our team with any questions you may have. From comparing wood types and mailing color samples, to creating blueprints for custom furniture, we are here to help.
With minimal care, Amish bedroom furniture will last a lifetime. Take the time to determine the best wood type and color to fit your vision and lifestyle. Choose custom sized sideboards and dressers to make the most of your space, rather than settling for standard box furniture. Our team at Dutch Craft Furniture is ready to guide you in creating the best Amish furniture for your home.
