Customer testimonials

“The book was indispensable in helping me deal with retailers by giving me the confidence and power to sift through superfluous information and get to the essential facts. Mr. Lewin was even so kind as to return my phone call to answer a question I had about a certain manufacturer.” — Patrick from Pennsylvania

“Len, your book is awesome!” — Ramon from Arcadia

“A ‘must have’ no nonsense title. Mr. Lewin has the right idea: inform the public about how to make better choices, and you have a reader who will pass on the word.” — Andrea from Arkansas

“Hi, Mr. Lewin. I wanted to say that your book was great! It was a book I needed to read last year when I was struggling with how to begin the furniture shopping process. I’m glad I found the book. It has answered a lot of my questions on furniture .” — Laura

“Thank you for your quick response to my question about Robsjohn-Gibbings and Hibriten furniture. You are a tremedous source and will suggest you to may others.” — Ricardo

“Before I ask my question I want to thank you for writing your very informative book. My husband and I are moving from a tiny 700 sq ft home to a 2300+ square foot home and are expecting to be purchasing almost a whole house full of new furniture in the next year. We bought your book last weekend and we’ve both read it cover to cover already. We have learned a surprising amount of relevant information and we feel much better equipped to navigate the furniture market in a way that suits our needs and our budget - thank you.” — Marie

“The Best Furniture Shopping Education You Can Get! This book is great! It tells new consumers what to look for and what they are paying for. The illustrations are great and the terminology is easy to understand. Mr. Lewin does not suggest that you buy only top of the line furniture; he urges you to consider the purpose and the abuse/use a piece of furniture will take. Furniture shopping to me is like looking in a museum. Although I knew a lot, I still found things to highlight in his book. I plan on buying this book for Christmas, wedding and graduation gifts.” — Jelane from Texas

“More thoughts: your book not only contains good information, your writing style is excellent! When reading it, I felt like I was getting honest advice from my neighbor or my friend. You have a vast background but you distilled that knowledge into digestible layman terms. The contents are well organized so I know exactly where to look for the information I need. The entire length is only 130 pages which is easily read in one or two days at the most.” - Long

“And speaking of your book, I left a review on Amazon this morning. Unfortunately, I could not give your book more than five stars, since that is the highest rating they have. I did not mention that I am (now) acquainted with the author. :-)

Thanks again!!” - Laura
