Aligning with our commitment to use high-quality, durable materials in all our products, Simpli Home has selected solid oak and walnut wood veneers for their exceptional strength, resilience, and beauty. Real wood veneers laminated to the surfaces of a strong core, like a solid or engineered wood substrate, offer outstanding stability and resistance to environmental conditions that can cause solid wood to expand and contract. Pieces made with these premium veneers bring timeless style to a room and have the potential to last generations.
Meticulous craftsmanship is essential for the creation of real wood veneers. The process of selecting, cutting, aligning, and applying solid wood veneers requires skill, dedication, and mastery of techniques. This expertise shines through in the seamless integration of veneers onto furniture surfaces, highlighting the natural beauty of the wood and preserving its integrity.
A key advantage of solid oak veneer is durability. Oak is a robust and resilient wood that resists changes in temperature or humidity that cause cracking and warping in other types of woods. Purchasing a piece made with real oak veneer is an excellent investment if you want a piece with long-lasting potential.
Oak veneers showcase the alluring beauty of genuine wood. Our oak veneer pieces are a warm, almost golden color with undulating grain patterns—a merging of light and nature that results in sophisticated luxury.
Lasting versatility sets walnut wood veneer apart from other woods. Like oak, walnut offers outstanding durability and resilience for multi-generational use.
Our walnut veneer pieces have a deep, brown color and exquisite grain patterns that evoke a sense of the organic and the opulent. There’s something about its rich, earthy hue that makes it adaptable to different design styles, from traditional to modern. Adding furniture made with solid walnut veneer will immediately enhance the warm, welcoming feel of a room.
The use of real oak and walnut wood veneers in Simpli Home products supports our commitment to sustainability. Because the amount of veneered wood required for furniture production is less than what’s required to create the same piece entirely of solid wood, fewer trees need to be cut. And the thinner cuts of wood used for solid wood veneers maximize the use of logs for other purposes, creating an environmentally conscious and cost-effective product.
Simpli Home gives customers the opportunity to own pieces that epitomize the beauty and luxury of real oak and walnut wood by offering products made with solid wood veneers at affordable prices. Customers who value quality, authenticity, and craftsmanship will be enamored with the elegance and enduring allure of these pieces.
]]>Consumers are demanding more. They want companies to do better.
Simpli Home wants that, too. And that’s why we use eco-friendly fabrics that meet our high standards of excellent quality for the majority of our sofas.
For our leather sofas, we have partnered with JBS Couros, a company striving to make leather manufacturing more sustainable through the production of Kind Leather. With the implementation of “kind”-er practices (hence the word “kind” in the name), this manufacturing process is setting new standards by yielding environmental and social benefits.
For starters, waste is reduced. With the production of Kind Leather, more of the leather hide is used. Any parts of the hide that are leftover are used for other products, recycled, composted, or used for energy generation. More benefits of the Kind Leather-making process include:
Next, Kind Leather is responsibly sourced. There is a zero-tolerance policy against working with farms in deforested areas, on indigenous lands, in environmental protection areas, or on land under legal protection. Farmers are taught best practices for the care of the animals and the environment. Because the supply chain is closely monitored, the hides used for our leather couches can be traced back to the farms where they were sourced. Plus, through every stage of the process, workers are treated fairly with better working conditions.
Recycled polyester is made using post-consumer plastic waste, like plastic bottles. This process helps to reduce waste and divert plastic from landfills. According to the Textile Exchange, each kilogram of recycled polyester represents a reduction of approximately 70% of greenhouse gas emissions when compared to the production of virgin polyester.
Most Simpli Home woven-blend fabric sofas are upholstered with fabrics that contain recycled polyester. These eco-friendly fabrics also meet the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and are OKEO-TEX Standard 100 certified.
For a fabric to receive the Global Recycled Standard, it has to meet a number of criteria established by the Textile Exchange. The material must contain at least 50% recycled content and be responsibly produced (meeting strict social and environmental requirements). It also must have a chain of custody that tracks the fibers at every stage of production and receive credible certification from a third party that audits each stage of the supply chain.
The OKEO-TEX Standard 100 certification means that every component of a product (every thread, button, etc.) has been tested for harmful chemicals and is therefore deemed safe for human health. OEKO-TEX® test criteria are globally standardized and updated at least once a year.
Sustainable, eco-friendly practices have always been at the heart of Simpli Home. While we know that no manufacturing process is perfect, we believe that offering the majority of our living room couches in eco-friendly fabrics is a step in the right direction. Small steps can lead to bigger impacts and when we all work toward conscious consuming, we can help save the planet.

Acacia wood has been used in furniture since biblical times. It is believed that acacia wood was used to construct the Ark of the Covenant, the Tabernacle and Noah’s Ark as it was considered virtually indestructible. In Egyptian mythology it is considered the tree of life. In Tibet or China, acacia is used as incense to keep the positive energies floating.
The acacia tree is commonly known as “wattle, “whistling thorn” and “thorn tree”. It is considered a hardwood, but like poplar it is very fast growing. As a result, it is considered a sustainable wood. It is believed that acacia has been around for more than 20 million years through fossil documentation.
We first discovered acacia in furniture when we were working on some outdoor collections. While visiting one of our factories, we saw a few patio sets whose wood looked like walnut. We were told that this wood was acacia stained in walnut color. Naturally, acacia has beautiful rich and varied grain that can be stained distinctively in a variety of colors. As we started using acacia in our furniture, we realized the individuality, magnificence and strength of this wood.
Our first acacia collection was the Monroe Collection. This collection is made from solid acacia wood in a distressed wire brushed charcoal brown finish. It is a collection that fits in most eclectic contemporary settings. In this collection, our Head Designer, Pauline Ring, used the richness of the acacia wood to complement her design ethos and enhance the overall look of the collection. She used the varied colors of acacia wood, coupled with the charcoal brown finish, the wire brushed distressed finish and the antique brass hardware to create this sublime collection that definitively delineates a living space.

Start imagining yourself enjoying a dry martini with your loved ones or having over your friends for a beer.Here are some of Simpli Home’s products that are key to designing your space.

Made from solid acacia wood, in a distressed finish, this classic storage cabinet is 39 inches wide and 42 inches high with plenty of storage space. It is available in a beautiful Distressed Charcoal Brown.
Bar Stools
Bar stools are critical for comfortable seating when having a drink and some finger food. They normally come in two heights, counter height and bar height and are available at fixed or adjustable heights, and as a swivel chair. When picking the stool that is right for you, check your space and see the style that fits your home and the flexibility that you need.
Our Randolph Bentwood Counter Height Stool, is the ideal height for kitchen counters. We will be introducing a bar height version of this stool shortly. This mid-century stool has a bentwood frame, is sleek with a low profile and available in 13 different colors and fabrics. Our Marana Bentwood Gas Lift Bar Stool, is a classic mid-century modern adjustable bar stool that fits both bar and counter height options. This stool is available in classic black faux leather as well as four other color options.
Bar Counters
Creating a built-in bar counter is expensive and is often not an option. We recommend using one of our classic sideboard buffets to serve as your bar. Our sideboards offer you tons of functionality often with wine racks, but with lots more storage. Our Draper Mid-Century Sideboard Buffet & Wine Rack gives you two drawers to store your bar utensils, a 12-bottle wine rack and a two-door large storage area to store all your bottles of single malts and is made from solid hardwood. At 54 inches wide and 36 inches high, it is the perfect size to entertain.
Our modern industrial style Banting Mid-Century Sideboard with Centre Drawers is 60 inches wide and 36 inches high, perfect for large spaces. With four center drawers to store all your serving and bar accessories and two closed storage compartments for more organization.
Wine Racks
All bar areas need to have wine storage. Without these great functional pieces of furniture, you will find your wine stored improperly in your kitchen cabinets. With these units, your wine is laid on its side as it should be and exposed like pieces of art for all to see.

Why solid wood? When we could save costs by making products that looked the same, but were made with faux finishes on particle board or MDF substrates. Well, we decided that the beauty, the individuality, the uniqueness of solid wood is incomparable. More importantly, we grew up in a family lumber business, driving forklifts, loading trucks, and handling lumber on a regular basis. We knew that the durability of wood to be an unshakable truth.
In the early days, we started our wood journey in Vietnam and Brazil making our furniture out of solid pine. Each piece hand manufactured, lovingly created and carefully packaged. These early items, more conservative and contemporary in styling, have proved amongst our most popular to this day. These collections - Artisan, Acadian, Cosmopolitan and Warm Shaker - never ending popularity are due to their universal appeal and wide ranging functionality and color options. These collections include functional solutions for a living room, bedroom, entryway, dining room, basement and den. These collections include entryway benches, wide, tall and regular sized TV stands, coffee, end and console tables of various sizes, storage cabinets, sideboards, hallway tables, bedside tables, dressers, chest of drawers and other pieces of furniture.
In the past number of years, with our explosive growth online, we have been liberated to create more and more unique, fashion forward, mid-century, industrial and exotic furniture pieces. We discovered the unique beauty of rubberwood, acacia and mango wood and their special multi-colored grain that made every piece of furniture special. We started distressing and wire brushing our finishes and created aged finishes. In India, we began combining metal and mango (soon sheesham wood too - beautiful!) and created an Industrial look for the 21st century (the Hunter, the Skyler, and the Nantucket). In Vietnam, we took the durable rubberwood and created new Mid-Century pieces (the Draper).
Solid wood matters. While we sometimes, in our more current, ambitious items, we are forced to used engineered with woods and veneers - both for the stability and durability of the furniture and access to unique woods - we are committed to solid wood furniture as the ultimate in furniture design and are dedicated to bring this sensibility and quality to our customers at affordable prices.
]]>There are many elements to creating an amazing piece of furniture. At Simpli Home, we go the extra mile and spend the extra money to make furniture that will excite and delight you at an affordable price.
The basis of any seating product is its frame. The frame must be solid and strong so that you will experience a piece of furniture that is strong and long lasting. Whether it is a dining chair, an accent chair, a sofa or a love seat - we make sure that all frames are made from solid and engineered woods that are of superior quality for maximum stability and durability.
The “undercarriage” (the stuff underneath your seat cushion) is the next important component in insuring a comfortable, quality chair. The choice made here, whether a plywood base, zig zag spring, webbing and spring or eight way hand tied spring, will lead to a difference in the comfort that you will experience. At Simpli Home, we never use plywood (which would make our products cost a lot less), and always use a zig zag spring or webbing, or a combination of both. This high quality undercarriage gives you the great seating experience that you get when you buy one of our chairs or sofas.
The cushions and pillow interior component are also critical to the quality and cost of the product you purchase. Invisible to the eye, the components used when making a comfortable cushion or back pillow really make a difference. There are lots of different “foams”, pocket coils, and batting (the stuff that makes you have a softer seat) that can be used. We only use high density foam, often with pocket coil for applicable seating, and double thick batting on top for a softer seat. Our accent chairs, love seats and sofas normally range from mid soft to mid firm based on the style and design of the seat.
Finally, the fabric. The fabric is where the biggest difference in costing occurs. While in a picture, the fabrics might appear the same, the truth is that there is a wide range of difference in the cost and quality of fabrics that are measured by their look, style, durability and composition. We always select upgraded fabrics made of synthetic or synthetic and natural materials that will be heavy duty and long lasting. We know that you will use your seating in areas of your house that has heavy traffic and we design our seating in that way. We also look at the weave of the fabric and how it makes the fabric look. We try to choose fabrics with style that will make the seat “pop”. Whether we make a chair with velvet, polyester blends, distressed air leather or other, we always put style first and know that you want to see a beautiful piece in your home that will enrich your space.
It is one of the challenges of selling online - how to convey to our customers the extra effort that we put into building our furniture. It’s hard to show and differentiate the quality of what we do, when all you are seeing is a picture. But we are trying our best - making better and better photos in our studio, creating videos so you can reach out and get a better touch and feel of what you are getting, design diagrams, and specifications.
]]>PRODUCT DESCRIPTION & SPECIFICATION
The first place to start your journey is to read the product descriptions, bullet points and most importantly, specifications. In this content, you will find the quality of the product carefully described. For example, almost all of our Ready-to-Assemble furniture is made from solid wood - not MDF or Particle Board - some are made from Pine, some from Rubberwood, and some from Acacia or Mango. Each type of wood has a different density and look.
When buying a chair or sofa, you have to be sure you know what quality you are purchasing. You can look online and find 10 chairs that look the same but have wildly varying prices. Often that is due to “what is under the hood”. At Simpli Home, we believe in making great furniture that will delight and excite our customers. As a result, we make our seating using top grade plywood and solid woods for our frame. We add webbing and zigzag spring for our seating support structure, high density foam, pocket coil and double thick batting for our seat cushions, and use high quality fabrics. We could save 30, 40 or 50% of our cost by using inferior materials and structure (as many of our competitors do) and get you similar looking furniture. But then what you would receive would be inferior and disappointing.
IMAGES & VIDEOS
Any reputable retailer of furniture will add lots of detail images and videos of their products. At Simpli Home, we try to make you comfortable in your purchase by taking lots and lots of images so that you can see what you are getting. We also shoot videos for almost every one of our products to show the comfort, the functionality, the sizing and the styling of our products when they are interacting with people. To be sure that you are getting what you want, also make sure that you have correctly color balanced your screen so that it accurately reflects the color of the furniture that you are purchasing. You can see lots of our videos on our YouTube page or on any of our product pages (check out our new Petra Sectional - and its video).
COMMENTS & REVIEWS
Don’t trust what we or our competitors tell you about our products? Thankfully, you can read reviews who have purchased the furniture and hear the truth about their experience. While our website is relatively new, we have been selling online for over six years. As a result, you can see thousands of reviews of our products on any of our partners’ websites. Check out our web store on Amazon and see the thousands upon thousands of reviews of our products. Or take a look at our Simpli Home landing page on Wayfair, where we have a 4.5. star rating for our company and tens of thousands of products reviews. Wherever you find Simpli Home products, whether it be Walmart, Bed Bath and Beyond or Home Depot, you will find multitude of reviews that should give you the utmost confidence in buying any of our products.
MEASURE TWICE, PICK ONCE
It is always important to know your space and have a clear idea of what will fit where. Model your room, and lay out the furniture pieces in a sketch. This will give you a clear idea of the size of all the furniture that you will require and where things will go. Then when you go online, make careful note of the width, height and depth of all the furniture pieces and make sure they will fit properly in your space. All of our products have dimension drawings to help you with your purchase. When buying larger pieces, make sure that the furniture will make it up your stairs or through your doorways.
CUSTOMER SERVICE
Our customer service team is ready to guide you in your purchase and give you all the details that you need about any of our products.

]]>Well, now that I am in the furniture business, I fully understand the console table in all its glory. It is a great piece of furniture that you can use in so many places.
Firstly, it is great as an entryway table. So, you ask, why not call it an entryway table? Well, that would limit it to being used in only the entryway - and not in other places in the home. Take our new Industrial styled Damien Console Table. It has two removable trays, is 50 inches wide and is made from distressed Elm. At only 16 inches in depth it is great for a larger entryway. You can throw your keys and wallet on it, or display photos, artwork or decor pieces on it.
But there is more that you can do with the humble console table. You can use it in your living or family room. Pushed up against a wall, it is an accent piece above which you can put a mirror, display photos or art, store stuff - so many uses. Functional and beautiful. Our mid-century Draper Console Table is a great example. With two drawers for tons of functional storage, the Draper, which comes in two colors, adds beauty and style to your space.
We love to use our console tables behind our sofas too. When your sofa is positioned in the middle of the room, it is so naked and looks unfinished. Well that is where the Sofa Console Table comes in. Position this piece behind your sofa and make use of the dead space to highlight your decor pieces and accent the space. While all our console tables will work, our large console tables like our mid-century modern 50-inch Sawhorse Console Table which comes in three colors can create drama in any space.
Truth be told, the console table can be used in almost any room in the house: bedroom, hallway, kitchen, den, office and basement. The only room I think it would not fit is the bathroom - but I could be wrong.
]]>In our goal of creating furniture for the whole home, we are ever expanding our product categories to bring to our community great, beautiful and practical solutions to everyday challenges. Poufs are amazing. They are cheap and cheerful solutions that can fit almost anywhere in your home. They are great for putting your feet up, letting your hair down and getting some extra flexible seating for that game of scrabble. Kids love Poufs. Your bunch of little or big munchkins can set up camp on your Poufs and play any type of board or video game or just to hang.
Poufs fit in your living or family room, in your basement or bedroom or in any play area. The only room I would not a Pouf in is your bathroom. Not sure it would work there.
Poufs are colorful and come in a multitude of shapes and sizes. They can be furry, fluffy, sleek and textured. They can have handles. They can be knitted.
We make all of our Poufs in India – the center of the Pouf galaxy. Our Indian partners hand make our Poufs at their factories, stuffing each Pouf with stuffing or beads to make them extra comfortable. They make the fabrics and patterns, stitching them carefully together to make a great product.
Our new Poufs are just gorgeous and come in lots of colors and shapes. Our plans are to add more and more Poufs as the years go on – because they are just so cute.
]]>One of the most popular contemporary styles is Casual Contemporary which may be one of the most familiar contemporary look of all.
Casual Contemporary is today’s preferred look. It is relaxed, casually sophisticated and comfortable. It is modern design, with its clean lines and strong silhouettes, but toned down to allow for comfort and ease. Its design is simple and clean. Its style is distilled from American Country, Shaker and Mission designs but with updated materials and construction to synthesize today’s taste. It’s a design style that is malleable and ever evolving as it blends the influences of styles that preceded it in the 20th century. It allows one to express one’s individuality while not sacrificing comfort, elegance or the quality of craftsmanship.]]>
Industrial style furniture is inspired by the objects that were found in factories during the Industrial Revolution starting in Britain in 1760. In these factories, workers operating machines, started to need pieces such as drafting tables, stools and material handling carts. This “furniture” was by definition simple, practical, easy to mass produce and made to withstand harsh conditions. It was purely functional and not meant to be stylish.
Design constantly references prior periods to warmly infuse the present with echoes of our fondly remembered past. This bygone time lives in our memory as a special place. This emotion has created design trends that have seen old or abandoned warehouses, factories and barns converted into spaces conducive to urban living. This design style celebrates last centuries engineering and mechanical innovations. It juxtaposes the raw with the refined, the vintage with the modern.
In furniture, the “industrial” look is the perfect marriage of form and function, old and new, historic and modern. It reminds us of a simpler iconic time in American history when the factory was the basis for our lives. Industrial furniture is inspired by these “warehouse” pieces. Metal and wood is combined to create original objects or forms that are re-purposed to functional home furniture pieces. Simpli Home uses solid hardwoods such as Mango, Acacia or Rubberwood, or solid softwoods such as Pine in combination with metal structure to create beautiful, original pieces that celebrate this historic period. Whether stained or raw, the woods blend organically with the metal bringing an authenticity and earthiness to one’s home.
]]>When we look outside we see color. Greens, reds, pinks, blues and yellows. A beautiful tapestry of existence that enriches our lives. There is a smorgasbord of color that we can and should consume. Take advantage of all the color that exists in our world and enliven your home with pizzazz.
Have a modern home? Then paint your walls white, get that beautiful grey couch, but then add a lime green accent chair, a red pillow or a turquoise rug. Make your home a visual feast.
Have a traditional home? Change things up by breaking up those browns and blacks with colorful ottomans and chairs. Introduce an eclectic piece of furniture to shake things up.
All color is beautiful.
