Teak Vs. Balau
The Smart Choice
All of our products are made from resilient Balau.  Balau is rated by the Timber Council as Stronger and More Durable than Teak.  Balau is recognized by Suzie Coelho of the HGTV Show "Outer Spaces" as a great wood for backyard and patio furniture.  Smart Money Magazine, in a recent article, rates Balau and Avonlea Gardens as a "Smart Shopper Best Buy".  Balau is a sustainable tree and not an endangered timber.  Balau is the "Enviro-Smart" choice for your patio furniture needs.

I had purchased a table and chair group from you 7 years ago. During shipment the first table was damaged. You immediately sent another table and padded it like it was on a trip to the space station and it made it perfectly - even with UPS trying their hardest to ensure total destruction - I do hope you made insurance claims on the earlier shipment.

 Anyway it has been up on our roof deck for 7 years and I just spent an afternoon refinishing it and it looks as good as new. We have enjoyed the set and have had a lot of complements on it from all our guest who have enjoyed drinks and meals on it while overlooking the Pacific.

 

This is truly one of the best purchases we have made and it looks as fantastic as the day it was delivered.

 

Thanks for such a great table and chair set.

Two years ago, I was suffering over a purchase of patio furniture.  Everywhere I went, I got a story.  Buy this and get this, this wood is better than that wood, don't order over the internet you'll get taken advantage of and so on and so on.  I'd search for awhile and then quit and then start again.  One day I found your website and surfed around.  I called no less than five times and finally wound up ordering well over $1300 of furniture for my deck.  Talk about a great purchase!  I couldn't be happier with my purchase.  This furniture has already been through storms and South Florida heat and everything that mother nature can deal out to us down here. 

So after two years, it was time to seal the furniture.  I'd forgotten how, so I called you folks and got a 10 minute lesson on how to seal the furniture.  Everyone has been so nice and professional and its obvious, you folks love your furniture even after it leaves your warehouse!

For anyone who has a fear of ordering this type of furniture over the internet, relax.  It comes right to your door.  The set up was very simple and the support has been fantastic.  It's nice to applaud good business these days and customer service that's still as good as the day you bought the furniture.

Thanks so much,

I have a large collection (about $12,000 worth) of Avonlea Gardens patio furniture that we have for our condo development  in the Virgin Islands.  In preparation for the recent Hurricane Omar, we found ourselves running short on preparation time prior to the hurricane, which is pretty understandable.  I recall reading that the balau wood used by Avonlea Gardens has been used for centuries in shipbuilding, and being a boatbuilder myself I took our patio furniture and just threw it in the pool to weather the hurricane.  The furniture floated in the pool for 4 or 5 days and when I took it out and let it dry, it was perfect.  Thanks Avonlea for a great product!

The housewarming/birthday party was a lovely success.  Even in the rain, 30 people showed up. The best part was MY BEAUTIFUL PATIO!!!!  I hung little white icicle lights all around the patio, and had candles burning in every corner. Then I got this awesome rug with muted green leaves on it for the floor ... and put my gorgeous table and chairs atop it ... And not a single person saw it without commenting on how beautiful. In fact, the patio was the smoking section but ended up being filled with non-smokers all night who felt the call to lounge around my lovely table!!

Thank you so much for your patience and kindness. And God bless you!

Much love,

Sandie Bricker


Thanks so much! You guys are the greatest. We already have told five other folks to order your goods. So word of mouth pr really works.

Take care and happy holidays.

Just a note to say that I really am happy with my recent purchases of furniture from you. I'm a marketing/pr consultant, and I recommend that you add a section to your website for "customer comments," so people like me can share their purchasing experiences. I have no problems ordering all kinds of things on the Internet, but some people would be a little uneasy ordering something as big as patio furniture over the web. Those skeptics might be more confident after reading some comments from customers online. Food for thought.

Anyway, thanks very much,

This is a note to tell you how very pleased I am with the four pieces of your Wessex furniture I received last week. I received two chairs, a bench and a side table and they are excellent. The assembly was simple and the furniture is of good quality and very comfortable to use. I would also like to comment on the price in that I found it to be about one-half as expensive as other lines of furniture that I looked at.

I am one of your satisified customers in Louisiana.

Hi!

Just wanted to let you know I LOVE my rocking chairs!!!! They look PERFECT on my front porch! And they are SO comfortable! I have had many, many complements on them.

I went to several web sites looking for deck lounges - teak in particular, and the prices were over $1000 each. Next I looked for cedar and could not find anything I really liked. So, I took a chance on your steamer chairs - the photo on the web looked good and your description of the tropical hardwoods sounded "worth the try." When these chairs arrived, I was amazed. I cannot believe the weight, good looks, fine craftsmanship and overall quality - all for the price that you would pay for plastic or maybe pine. Great furniture. I wish I had ordered more now.

Looking forward to using my new lounges !

Dear  Friends,

Just a note to express my sincere appreciation in your wonderful products and excellent customer service. I am truly impressed with your furniture and pleasantly surprised that such high quality can be purchased at very reasonable prices.

I would especially like to thank you for your responsive and professional customer service. When I received my order, one item was missing its assembly hardware. I sent an e-mail Friday evening to request that a hardware package be sent to me. Much to my surprise, I received a response to my e-mail early Saturday morning indicating that my hardware would be shipped first thing Monday. By Wednesday, the hardware was at my home.

Good customer service is so very difficult to find these days. It's nice to know that your company cares about their customers. Thanks again.

Recently I ordered the Lutyen's bench from you, and I just wanted you to know
how pleased I am with it.  First, it arrived very quickly - only a few days
after my order.  It was also easy to assemble.  But most of all, it is
beautiful and really adds a great touch to the garden in front of my house.  
I've received so many comments and compliments about this bench that I know I
made an excellent decision in purchasing it.  Thank you for the great service
and a wonderful product.
