How to Tell if Furniture Is Truly Made in America
“Made in the USA” should mean more than a label — it should mean quality, integrity, and craftsmanship. Unfortunately, many furniture companies use imported parts or outsourced labor while still marketing their products as “American-made.”
Here’s how to spot the real deal:
- Solid wood construction — not MDF or particleboard.
- Handcrafted joinery — not stapled or glued panels.
- Transparent sourcing — makers who proudly share where and how each piece is built.
At The Wood Reserve, every piece we sell is crafted by American artisans who build with locally sourced hardwoods. When we say “American-made,” we mean it — every joint, every finish, every detail.
Real craftsmanship, real people, real American furniture.
