The following references have been collected from a wide variety of custom furniture projects as testament to the experience of working with Durante Furniture. You’ll notice many of the names have been left absent to protect our clients’ privacy, but these references are in letter format and are available upon request for prospective customers.
From the outset of this two-year project you and your team exhibited the “can-do” attitude that is critical to the success of a project with this level of detail. Time and again, we challenged your design team with new and different ideas, and without fail they always delivered. With constant open lines of communication, unparalleled attention to detail, and excellent customer service, you truly made this portion of the construction process a stress free endeavor for my staff and me.

Durante Furniture took the vision and concept drawings from the designer and created accurate shop drawings that were site confirmed by their team. They embraced the project as if it were for themselves. They anticipated challenges with a team approach using creative solutions that enhanced the end result.
Owner, Private Residence
[We] wish to express our thanks to you for your company’s dedication and execution. We are so pleased with the outcome of the furniture as well as your personal involvement.
As you are now well aware, our expectations were “perfection” and you rose to the occasion.
The final product you produced is nothing short of spectacular and if the need arises, you can be sure we will be working together again.
Owner, Private Yacht
Durante Furniture was best qualified to meet our furniture requirements. I was extremely impressed by their sincerity, experience, level of skill and knowledge, and commitment to exceed our expectations in every aspect.
Corporate Client
We had very distinct ideas of how we wanted the furnishings [of our corporate suite] to look and function; neither of those desires could be met with off-the-shelf purchases.
Both Karey and Roy took a very personal interest in the project and were most helpful in providing good advice, having lots of patience and an intimate knowledge of the materials we worked with to get the job done.
I would not hesitate to recommend the Durante’s for any custom build of any type.
Owner, Corporate Office Client
Durante will not be your cheapest solution. You will find suppliers that are cheaper. That being said, I would encourage you to look a little deeper into the construction specifications that make Durante Furniture so durable. We have found that over the long run, Durante is the way to go.
Corporate Client
In building a yacht, attention to detail is critical and the expectation level is high. We are pleased to say that our dealings with the team at Durante Furniture was nothing short of superb. Their insistence on perfection and ensuring all the criteria were addressed and met, left us with an overwhelming sense of comfort.
I would not hesitate in recommending Durante Furniture for any furniture requirements you may have.
Owner, Private Yacht
…Our relationship with the Durantes would be essential to completing our yacht. They bailed us out of numerous problems, numerous times. Their standards of quality and service are far beyond anything that we could have possibly have hoped for.
They built all of our loose furniture and upholstered all of our settees which are incredibly beautiful and “deliciously” comfortable. They fabricated and finished cabinetry, woodworking, and joinery. Their responsiveness was “outrageously good” and they were uncompromising on quality.
Owner, Private Yacht
Durante’s attention to detail and quality is exactly what we require. I have found very few subcontractors who are able to produce the level of quality we expect in our finished products that Durante has consistently provided.
Personally, I would not hesitate to ask Durante for their assistance with future projects.
