Peevish Lemons

by alderwoods

Purchased two top-of-line (Durham and Cresent ) bedroom sets. The cherry wood Chateau Fontaine Collection set arrived with a horrible smell coming from the double dresser drawers. Owner said it was the smell of glue...months past have not been able to get uric acid smell out of the drawers. Second set, the Visual Index Moderne, after three months, the paint began to chip, peel, and change colors around the seams of my wrap king head and foot boards and my breakfront dresser...No bargain at 86 hundred cash with 6-8 week delivery time.

• Pros: good parking, convenient location
• Cons: inferior products, poor craftmanship, lacks integrity
