For Patterned Low Media ConsoleWe are so pleased with our credenza; it is absolutely beautiful. It is true to the requested size and wood grain. Jamison was incredibly nice and prompt. He offered far more detail than we knew to ask. He provided constant updates with photos. I would most certainly request more furniture from him!

For Patterned Low Media ConsoleThe piece is really beautiful. Craftsmanship is elegant and evident in the many carefully-considered details. Well worth the wait, it is a piece of functional art that really ties my entire room together. Super happy with it. I will likely have another piece done by Jamison. Thank you again!

For Char ArmoireJamison is so talented! The armoire I ordered from him was very well made and the wood finish is incredibly beautiful. As an interior designer, I can't wait to work with him again! He really cares about making people happy with their products.

For Low Media ConsoleIt was a real pleasure working with Jamison. He was very professional and courteous. He helped me shape my project through the design phase and carried out the project as promised. The final product is absolutely magnificent. I would absolutely do business with him again. The reasons for not giving a five star review are, I believe, well founded. Jamison greatly underestimated the time it would take to finish the project, which caused frustration. Estimated time to shipping was 6 weeks but the project carried on to about 3 months. The other frustration is that he did not communicate with the frequency that he said he would. He did not respond to my messages as quickly as I would have liked, and I believe he fell short on his promises to send photos or follow up e-mails. So there were some frustrating moments. He communicated just enough to where I knew my project was moving forward. I can tell he's a busy guy. At the end of the day, my wife and I asked ourselves if we would do the Custommade.com thing again, and if we would do it with Jamison. And I say absolutely yes. Having done one project gives me some trust with him and the process and the work was first rate.

For Bolt Sideboard / BuffetI received my finished sideboard last Friday, and it was absolutely beautiful and perfect in every way. I was incredibly impressed with the care and attention Jamison put into shipping the piece. And it is truly a functional, beautiful piece of art. I love it. I will say the product shipped 6 weeks late, and it took a full week longer to ship than advertised, (3-5 days was actually 10...part of that could have been due to the Thanksgiving holiday). And that said, I would without hesitation work with Jamison again. This is a beautiful, unique piece of furniture and an incredible value considering the detail and workmanship. Thank you so much for all your hard work, Jamison. I am going to enjoy this piece of furniture for a very long time to come.

For armoire inquireI cannot rate Jamison Sellers highly enough! Jamison designed, built and delivered my dream armoire after I had searched high and low - to no avail - for something pre-made. From start to finish Jamison was incredibly communicative and professional; his attention to detail was like nothing I had seen, from wood selection to drawer and door pull design. He is a true craftsman, I am very lucky to have found him through Custom Made and now have an armoire to be cherished! Jamison is a gem of a furniture maker, and an incredibly nice guy on top of it all.

For Table Top 60x30JP Danley
For Table ProjectJamison was an absolute joy to work with. His furniture is very well made and truly one of a kind. He constantly communicates with you while working on the project and provides updates with pictures for multiple steps. If there is ever a choice in design or process (stain, finish, etc), he asks for your input so you have a product that feels like your own. Although delivery was a little late and we needed to hire extra movers since our piece was so large, the experience was marvelous. So glad we went with Jamison!

For Custom live-edge dining tableWe are very impressed with the Peak table that Jamison created for us. It is simply a stunning piece of furniture. The detail work he did to insert the bolts into the table is remarkable. Every single person who has seen the table has commented on the beauty and truly unique design - exactly what we were looking for. He's a gifted furniture designer who clearly takes pride in his work and wants to deliver on expectations. It was a pleasure working with Jamison on the project and we're already considering the next piece we want him to create.

For Platform Bed and HeadboardMy first experience with Custom Made, what can I say? Originally I posted my project and received several responses. However, what caught my eye with Jamison was his prior work in addition to the detail and depth in the messages he sent me. I could see that it was clear that his attention to detail was a priority. Speaking with Jamison and after some detailed messages back and forth, I am happy with my bed, night stands, and head board. Although there were delays due to other vendors (like the powder coating), everything fit in place and looks great. Jamison made everything easy to assemble and smooth. The wood looks very good and best of all it was made in the US.

For kitchen island with wheelWe are really happy with Jamison's both in metal and wood work. We provide a design initially. After a few round of communication, Jamison gives very good feedback, modification and enhanced the design. The island turns out amazing! We love it. During the process, the best thing I found is that Jamison is very easy to worj with and communicate. He first provided us with a computer rendering so that we have a feeling of how the island looks. The island ended up to be exactly look like the rendering. The is very helpful! He is also a very careful and thoughtful person. He communicates very precisely (this makes things very easy) and asks what we want in each details. For example, he will take pictures of the hardware he founds and let us provide feedback. Sometimes, the hardware we wanted is not what he found but he is willing to look for something unique and match our need. I think Jamison is very passionate at what he does, therefore, he cares a lot on the things he made. For me, the island is not only a furniture, it is an art. I am very happy to work with Jamison. We had a very good first custom made experience. Thanks Jamison. We love the island :)

For bolt cabinetI love my bolt cabinet from Jamison Sellers Design. I was looking for something to fit my small living room space. I looked for something that was the right size (and something I liked!) at every furniture store in my area and online. I couldn't find anything, so I decided to have someone help me. I looked around on CustomMade until I found a couple of people whose cabinet styles I really liked. Then I narrowed it down to Jamison. He won me over with the Stash Table. I just thought that design was really clever. I also like that he shops around for reclaimed wood. He made the cabinet to my exact size specifications, and it fits perfectly in my space. We discussed the look and wood that would be used, so the cabinet is a representation of my personal taste. I felt like Jamison was truly interested in giving me something special and gave some thought to the wood selection based on my feedback. (I sent pictures of my living room too.) Jamison posted pictures and updates during the process, so I could see the progress. When the cabinet was delivered, it looked even better than expected. My cabinet is all reclaimed wood. The walnut frame is gorgeous. You can see some of the pictures here: http://www.custommade.com/by/jamisonsellers#nav_creation
