Morris Chair & Ottoman

Doug was a pleasure to work with! His communication skills were excellent, providing me updates along the way. He was a pleasure to work with and would look to collaborate with him again. Great experience!

Doug has been very responsive and a pleasure to deal with. He has completed my project in a very timely manner and has communicated with me via text and pictures throughout the process. I can't wait to make the trip to pick up my cabinet.

From start to finish, the process was smooth and effortless. There was clear communication throughout the project and the end product was exactly what I wanted. Can't ask for better.

Doug is an excellent craftsman to work with. You will not be disappointed.

For Quilted Maple And Walnut Entry Table

4.8

May 11, 2019

This was my first custom project. I interviewed by email 6 different wood furniture makers. It was immediately apparent to me that Doug was my choice. His communication and follow-up (we used text & email) was first-rate. He sent me progress photos all along the way. I gave 4 stars on value as that is subjective. I LOVE my new zebrawood and walnut entry console table. I would use Doug again, and would recommend people interview him and talk about their project.

The project came in on time, and exceeded expectations. I’m sitting at the bar next to my wife as I review the stool underneath me. Fantastic. Deborah’s chair is two inches taller than mine and she sits comfortably at the bar and I can look into her beautiful eyes. Something an off the shelf bar stool would not allow. I’m a big boy and Doug went out of his way to reinforce the joints, the support for the leather and they are strong, beautiful and comfortable. We will be commissioning more projects in the future. Did I mention the packing? Bullet proof. Got here well labeled and safe. First class all the way. I would recommend Doug without reservation.

Love our custom made hall table ?. Never ordered from CustomMade or Doug before, so we were skeptical. We specified the width and color. He communicated with messages and pictures on the progress of the table. It is so beautiful! And Doug had the table hand delivered to us in N J.

Working with Doug McPherson was an absolute pleasure. From start to finnish he communicated every step of the way. Delivery was perfect...finished table was magnificent....Highly recommen this wonderful artist...his visions in wood are truly magical..

I love my barnwood tray! Quality work, finished product just what I was looking for. My experience working with Doug went very smooth from start to finish. Great communication throughout process. Would highly recommend and use this builder again.

It's always risky when you hire some total stranger online for some custom pieces, since you can't be there to touch and examine the products. Photos can be difficult to gauge the skills of the hands behind the objects of the photos. This small project turns out to be exemplary. The chopping block and knife strip are well made, with attention to details. It's obvious McPherson took a lot of pride in his craft. And most of all, he was responsive in communication, and was able to offer suggestions when we made a drastic change and decided to go for an end grain chopping block and stripped pattern knife strip. With some exchanges of phone calls, texts, and photos, the products were made, and a couple of days later turned up at my porch, well packed and out to be beyond my expectation. Overall, this has been a very positive experience. The worst part: I may end up ordering some more pieces.... oops.

Working with Doug was a delight. I had a very special gift in mind for a dear friend and Doug was able to work with me tirelessly in order to ensure my vision was executed perfectly and professionally. Doug made a photo album dedicated to the progress and shared images with me throughout the process. Special care and attention was given to me through the duration of the process. I know in the future that if I ever need custom, beautiful woodworking, I can reach out to Doug.
