Are you about to invest into new home furnishings?

If you’re in the market for home furnishings and looking for affordable options or temporary solutions due to a limited budget, this article may not be for you. However, if you’re ready to invest a significant portion of your hard-earned money in furniture that will stand the test of time, keep reading.

Home furnishings can generally be categorized into two groups: Canadian-made and imported. While there are excellent furniture manufacturers in the USA and other countries, we’ll focus solely on Canadian and imported furniture since we’re based in Canada. Let’s let Americans speak for themselves.

Canadian furnishings come in various types, including handcrafted and custom-made high-end pieces. Some noteworthy Canadian furniture brands include Handstone, JLM, Verbois, Vokes, Tomali, Lind (for sofas), and Dreamstar Bedding (for quality mattresses).

In particular, let’s delve into a few of these Canadian manufacturers with whom we have established a fruitful relationship over the past decade:

At the top of our list is Handstone, known for its solid wood furniture and customizable options. Crafted by skilled Mennonite artisans in the Waterloo area, Handstone’s case goods, including bedroom, dining room, living room, and occasional furniture, epitomize precise craftsmanship. The Handstone brand is highly regarded in Canada and offers reasonably priced products, making it an excellent choice for mid to higher price ranges. Notably, Handstone is one of the few factories that provides customers with a 10-year manufacturer warranty, a testament to their confidence in the durability and longevity of their pieces.

Another Canadian manufacturer, JLM, based in Quebec, is renowned for its popular NOHO storage bed, featuring 12 drawers—a perfect solution for modern-day condos where space is limited. If you’re seeking a semi-modern, clean look with a focus on storage beds, we recommend exploring JLM’s offerings. Their furniture blends real wood veneers with solid wood.

Verbois, a remarkable Canadian factory, offers simple, modern, and beautiful furniture designs that will leave you in awe. While they also offer custom-made options, their range includes stunning selections for bedrooms, dining rooms, and occasional furniture. Verbois furniture combines real wood veneers with solid wood, and you can choose from Birch and Walnut materials, with the latter being more expensive.

Vokes furniture shares similarities with Handstone, such as being made of solid wood, but it has certain limitations. While it may not provide full customization to meet your specific size and design requirements, Vokes offers a wide selection, and its solid wood pieces come at amazing prices.

Tomali, another stylish Quebec-based manufacturer, primarily specializes in bedroom and dining room furniture. Most of their tables are crafted from solid Hickory, one of the hardest woods, and some also feature solid birch. Tomali’s case goods combine real wood veneers with solid wood, and their finishes and upholstery options are contemporary and vibrant, keeping up with the latest trends.

When it comes to sofas, Lind Furniture Canada is a notable factory that exclusively uses genuine leather, eschewing fake or bonded materials. Lind’s sofas are reasonably priced, and if you prefer fabric, they offer a range of gorgeous colors to choose from.

For those seeking more affordable options without compromising on quality and supporting Canadian products (which is highly recommended), Dynasty Sofa factory in Mississauga is worth considering. They offer an extensive selection of sofas and chairs at very reasonable prices. It’s important to note that we don’t display many sofas and sectionals on our showroom floor. Instead, we encourage you to schedule an appointment directly with Lind or Dynasty to view their selection and then place your order through our website or visit our store.
