We’ve had our West Elm Lucas Swivel Chair for oh I think six years now. It’s one of those chairs that is consistently getting complemented and therefore always finds a way into your home even when you don’t think it really “fits” or that you still have the space for it. This is clearly a […]

Like most West Elm mirrors, the Metal Framed Wall Mirror uses a mid quality glass and thickness and due to this and likely the smaller size, we don’t notice any distortion. Off to a good start!

When we received these beautiful embroidered dot floral pillows from West Elm we were definitely excited as they matched a new sofa we had just received perfectly.

For the sake of this review, I’ll put aside the fact that receiving our custom fabric Stella Mid-Century Loveseat took nearly 5 months, a dozen frustrating phone calls, and an ultimatum to a manager. After all, we did wind up getting it for a fraction of the original price due to the frustrations. Instead, we’ll […]

Theoretically we love this table. The same good looks as the Industrial Storage Console we have come to enjoy for years plus storage compartment in a coffee table? Sign us up… or so we thought. In reality, the table suffers several design flaws. Least of all the problems is that like the Industrial Console, getting […]

We finally got a chance to review the Crescent Swivel Chair which West Elm recently released and has been advertising like crazy, and boy were we disappointed. A slightly modern take on the Barrel (or Tub) Chair, we liked what we saw in pictures and were initially excited to take a spin in it (literally). […]
