    We received our furniture last week and I wanted to tell you how completely thrilled we were! The pieces are AMAZING! At first we thought we should have bought less (we spent $10,000) so we could “test the waters” so to speak but now we regret not buying more for our whole house. We’ll be back soon. Can’t wait to see what other wonderful pieces you have to offer. Your craftsmen are wonderful! Our dining room furniture looks brand new. Unbelievable! Thank you so much! Please pass on our praises!!

    I just wanted to let you know how thrilled we are with all of the pieces! The dining table is absolutely magnificent – so glad we went for it! And the credenza turned out beautiful.

    I just wanted to thank you for the fabulous Sligh Lowry desk. Your woodworkers did an amazing job refinishing it in exactly the stain we discussed and it is just perfect in my home office. My interior decorator (Ilene April) was just telling me that she had another client buying dining room chairs from you and she had sent custom fabric to you to have them reupholstered. She wants to come in one day and see your shop and I have another friend in the city interested as well. I’ll email or call you and hopefully we can come by one of these days and they can see your operation in person too! It is very impressive.

    Just wanted to say how smoothly everything went with this order; from start to finish. Super happy with the restoration results, extremely knowledgeable salespersons at the warehouse/on the floor, even the delivery crew was friendly and courteous. Look forward to future orders.

    I just had to email you to say how much I absolutely love my chairs!!!! I could not be happier!!! I looked for 5 years to find the perfect set, and they match perfectly! Thank you to everyone who worked hard and helped me get the perfect chairs. I look forward to finding a few more chairs and a sideboard in the future!

    Modern Hill was very professional, and so wonderful with communicating every detail about my purchased item. My chairs are more beautiful than what I saw advertised for sale. Thank you for a seamless transaction from start to finish.

Do you want us to find you one like this?

Do you have one like this you want to sell?

If this is not quite what you're looking for, we have a lot more Mid-century / Mid century Modern / Danish Design / Scandinavian / retro / vintage mcm furniture listed for sale here on our website, as well as a large collection of mid-century modern designer furniture in our catalog where you can sign up to be the first to know when we get a particular piece you love back in stock.

And since only about HALF of our 2100+ pieces are online, we invite you to see our warehouse in person here in the Chicago area. Please call, text, or use the Schedule A Visit link at the top of our site to schedule a private, one-on-one warehouse showing - even a virtual tour using Zoom or Facetime!

FREE SHIPPING: When you add this piece to your cart, the shipping fee we set for this piece will get it to your home comfortably wrapped and safely secured in the shortest amount of time no matter where you are in the U.S. However, you get FREE SHIPPING on each additional purchase we deliver to your home at the same time and your whole order ships TOTALLY FREE on most orders of 5 or more pieces.

We also deliver your whole order in Chicagoland for $150. So if you're in the Chicago area, just choose "Local Delivery" at checkout. Most items ship within 4 to 6 weeks depending on our restoration lead time (see below for more about free restoration.) You can also choose "Local Pickup" at checkout if you plan to come by our warehouse in person.

SAVE ON RE-UPHOLSTERY: At your option, we can also fully re-upholster or even customize the piece for a fee before it ships. If the piece you are looking at includes this service, it will be available as a checkbox inside the green box near the Add to Cart button. Simply check the box, add the piece to your cart, and the total price will be updated automatically.

FREE FINDER SERVICE: We have over 2100 pieces in our current inventory and we get new pieces in daily; so if you tell us what you’re considering buying and the price that works for you we’ll find it, fix it, and get it in your order with free shipping. You can also click a button on any Out of Stock piece on our website and that will notify us that you are interested in buying this piece if we run across another one just like it.

ABOUT PHOTOS: We take our photos in a controlled lighting studio to show as much detail as possible. We do NOT Photoshop out blemishes. In almost all cases, the photos were taken before any work is done improving the piece, therefore the piece you get is often even better looking than it was in the photos. In some situations when we get the exact same piece back in stock that we've had before, we will use photos from a previous shoot. In these situations, the piece you get will be in the same (often better) condition than the photos.

The bottom line is we know how hard it is to purchase all the mid century furniture you need from multiple sources in different parts of the country and get them restored to your liking and shipped to your door at the same time, so we try to make all this as painless and worry-free as possible.

We keep you fully informed throughout the whole process - because we want you to be happy with your purchase and tell everyone how easy it is to buy real mid century modern furniture online.

Sincerely,
All of us at Modern Hill Furniture Warehouse
