I spent over 30 years in the furniture business, sales and management, everything he says is absolutely true. You can believe it and count on what is said here has been true for over 75 years.
I have owned an upholstery shop for all most 30ty year's. It's nice when a salesman knows and understands furniture and can actually answer a question with intelligence.
Thank you Mr Batte...Soo sorry to hear you have closed down your business after 136 years...I sure hope someone in the family re opens it someday...I sure would have loved to have bought a sofa from you...I'm looking to invest on a quality one for many years to come...Many blessings to you and yours...🌹❤
Thank you so much for all this information! If I lived anywhere near you I would totally buy from you! But this video has really helped me feel more confident in actually buying furniture!
That's all well and good sir, but..it does ME little good when NO PLACE within 150 miles of me sells this kind of quality! It's ALL JUNK!! You sir did a great job of pointing out what to look for in quality products. I enjoyed it very much sir, thank you. I can't however travel to the deep South to buy furniture..if nothing else, the shipping would kill me! 😉. Thanks all the same, keep selling your great products!
Thanks for a great video. It teaches me and my husband on what to look for when buying our furniture together. Until this video I never truly knows what matching patterns means on a sofa. Happy retirement.
I enjoyed this video so much It’s so nice to hear a person speak about what goes into making a quality product. I am going to check out your website and see if I can find something for the tropical heat and style of miami Thank u so much! Ana Sophia
Excellent, excellent video. No hype, all proper information. Informative as can be. Thank you. This video is unique. And congratulations on having a fine product to talk about and to demonstrate.
Thank you!! You need to get back to teaching us about this stuff that know one tells you in the stores... maybe it's because they don't know themselves 🤣🤣 make more video!!
Yes I just bought a brand new love seat and a recliner also bought it just a few days ago it is 100% polyester I was just wanting to find out if this was a good buy my first new couch and recliner is there anybody that has information on the one hundred percent polyester made Furniture was this a good type fabric to buy?
In my experience I always buy the firmest cushion i can find,rock hard and what most people would consider uncomfortable KNOWING that in a short amount of time it will soften into that midlevel feel.Also the cross section cut off furniture you see on the sales floor is not what YOUR furniture will look like.I am always amazed at how couch frames are pieced together using multiple scraps of wood.And if it is imported,which most are,they do not use quality hardwood of any grade whatsoever.Furniture is way overpriced for the quality you receive.
Is that sofa still available ? It’s so beautiful! Do you deliver to other states also? I finally find a sofa I love and you’re going out of business? 😔😔😔
You can get a quality to grain leather sofa for 900 dollars. It’s not heirloom quality but, will still last a long time and a nice fit and finish. Quality full grain leather couches start at 1250 dollars. My parents have a chocolate brown 3700 dollar aniline leather sofa and loveseat seat set from the leather sofa company with a nice tall back, brass nailhead trim, and the deck has 8 way hand tied springs. It’s a little too firm because my parents picked the extra firm couch cushions option. If I ordered a couch from the leather sofa company, I would pick the same style sofa and loveseat but, with medium seat cushions instead of firm and get it in oxblood red instead of chocolate brown.
Many years ago I purchased a Woodmark sofa. It had all of the hallmarks that this man describes. But the store where I purchased it has gone out of business and it’s almost impossible to find a high-quality sofa like this anymore.
3:58 It's not the sort of thing that we would want here. I could just see this guy speaking to a potential son-in-la and letting the kid know, he's not welcome.
I’m so sorry I just purchased a couch from Ashley’s last September. So far so good I have been watching all the videos about the problems with Ashley furniture . I at least know what to look for and expect in the future. I hope your new couch is going to be a lot better that the one in the video.
I just to work for Basset (is not the same furniture) and believe it or not ...all this furniture came from Vietnam and China this is super expensive pieces some of the customers return them ... because was poor quality etc, make sure you inspect everything, up and down, very poor quality I don't recommend it, the paint in some chest legs was coming off and the rugs at the customers houses was getting stain ......warning!! pieces broke everywhere they don't return it they just fix the problem in the warehouse.

This is a good video. Quality information that most ppl are not aware of. Thank you.
This is absolutely wonderful!
In terms of learning about the attributes of quality furniture, this is the single best piece of content I've seen. I wish there was Batte in Boston.
Excellent, excellent video. No hype, all proper information. Informative as can be. Thank you. This video is unique. And congratulations on having a fine product to talk about and to demonstrate.
this was helpful. thank you!
Thanks for such an informative video, sir💐👌
This guy is awesome. Thank you again
I learned a lot! Thank you!
Wow! Thank you! This was so educational. Amazing video!
Great
Wish I came across this video before I purchased my couch
Great video!
Very educational. Now I know what to look for.
Thank you!! You need to get back to teaching us about this stuff that know one tells you in the stores... maybe it's because they don't know themselves 🤣🤣 make more video!!
Very informative, I put it in my watch later list. What brands does he sell in his showroom?
very informative, thank you
This was so helpful! I wish your store was near us!
Yes, a list of quality sofa furniture brands, companies, potentially selling US nationally not super duper expensive like ethan allen?
Thank you! Very helpful information.
Where can these sofas you speak of sold??
Yes I just bought a brand new love seat and a recliner also bought it just a few days ago it is 100% polyester I was just wanting to find out if this was a good buy my first new couch and recliner is there anybody that has information on the one hundred percent polyester made Furniture was this a good type fabric to buy?

Wish you had a store near me! It’s nearly impossible to find quality furniture at any price.
I don't know how I got here, but now I feel like I just sit on cinder blocks.
Very good video. This is a professional for sure.
Nice video. Thank you!
Thank you.
Like to see more furnisher
Nice...!
every word he says is true ..true..TRUE!....
Can one make an order of a more raised furniture of his/her comfortability?
Is that sofa still available ? It’s so beautiful! Do you deliver to other states also? I finally find a sofa I love and you’re going out of business? 😔😔😔
What about upholstery fabric such as polyester vs linen?
Great video! Should have a link to your website or at least a phone number and address in your description!

Now the question is...who makes furniture like this?
Many years ago I purchased a Woodmark sofa. It had all of the hallmarks that this man describes. But the store where I purchased it has gone out of business and it’s almost impossible to find a high-quality sofa like this anymore.
Did he say the wood should be 5 /4 of a inch thick?
Most "deck" boards are 5/4 boards. 5/4 = 1 + 1/4 It's carpentry lingo.
3:58 It's not the sort of thing that we would want here.
I could just see this guy speaking to a potential son-in-la and letting the kid know, he's not welcome.
I’m so sorry
I just purchased a couch from Ashley’s last September. So far so good
I have been watching all the videos about the problems with Ashley furniture . I at least know what to look for and expect in the future.
I hope your new couch is going to be a lot better that the one in the video.
👀 I can tell you have been selling furniture for quite some time....I hope you Do get caught sitting down on the job 😂
I hire him
Does anyone know if they ship to California?
I am curious what brand of sofa he is using in the video.
Hope Noneya hes probably using his house brand "batte"
beast
I just to work for Basset (is not the same furniture) and believe it or not ...all this furniture came from Vietnam and China this is super expensive pieces some of the customers return them ... because was poor quality etc, make sure you inspect everything, up and down, very poor quality I don't recommend it, the paint in some chest legs was coming off and the rugs at the customers houses was getting stain ......warning!! pieces broke everywhere they don't return it they just fix the problem in the warehouse.
Just read Batte furniture is closing

This man knows his stuff-and unfortunately they didn’t have someone to take over for Mr. Batte following his retirement.
Bill Clinton?
Isn’t 4/4 of an inch an inch
Mos sale person doesn’t know what colour and materials the couch. The part time under pay over work. The old days when people care about their jobs.
