We are often asked, “Who makes the furniture for Casco Bay Furniture?” Most retailers in the furniture industry tend to stay with large, well-known manufacturers to build their furniture. We chose to have our furniture built by specialty manufacturers for several reasons. To begin with, we like to have a close personal relationship with our factory owner and our in-house product developer. This relationship is difficult to obtain with a large manufacturer. As a result, our leather furniture is built to our standards and specifications which is one of the highest standards in the industry.

Often when people go out to buy a new sofa or chair, their first consideration is how it looks and how it feels. Yet, I have found that buying a sofa is kind of like buying a car. If you want something that is going to last over time, you need to know what is “under the hood.”

Updated – If you are in the middle of shopping for leather furniture you may have run across derogatory comments about Casco Bay on myfurnitureforum.com.
It turns out that the forum, in addition to being educational, is a gateway to sell leather furniture in direct competition to Casco Bay. The primary leather and fabric upholstery brands sold on myfurnitureforum.com are Taylor King and Hancock and Moore as well as Bradington Young and Century.

The other day it occurred to me that, although I had been in the furniture business for a long time, I could probably learn more about cushion construction…and it may be true for many of you. I decided to contact Lawrence Sweeny, owner of Larin Cushion Company of North Carolina.
Lawrence how long have you been in the cushion business?
I’ve been in the business for 40 years. I started in the cushion business at Hickory Spring Manufacturing Company, a company that is a leading supplier of foam, springs, and other furniture related components. After three years, I left the company and formed my own company, catering to a portion of the business I thought was not being served well in the industry… the high-end business and specialty manufacturers. We make a quality product and rarely do we have a cushion failure. I have made several million cushions over the years and we may have had only 4 or 5 returns a year.
