Michael & Rosemary (Mohnton, PA - Oct. 2009): Just wanted to say thank you for the beautiful workmanship on the built in cabinets on both sides of the fireplace. Everyone loves them and comments also on the fine craftsmanship of Elvin.
The online progress was terrific! Was so easy to work with both of you and will call again the next time we need anything built. Thanks so much for the excellent service (getting done ahead of schedule!).
It's too bad that the project is completed because Maddie (aka: cute dog) misses your petting her belly while laying on the floor with her!
Wayne & Kristina (Quakertown, PA - May 2009): I'm glad to say as a daughter and granddaughter of woodworkers, I finally found someone who does high quality work, and you can count on us being repeat customers. Thanks!
I waited for years to find bedroom furniture that is high quality and the style that we like. We are so glad we found Elvin and are extremely pleased with our two dressers and two night tables that he built. The picture of our mirrored dresser in cherry with natural finish is on their site. Quality of work was most important to me being a daughter and grandaughter of furniture makers.
Alton & Deb (Schuykill Haven, PA - Jan. 2009): Thanks for another great job! Looks great. My parents agree it is beautiful.
Mike & Ira (Blandon/Harrisburg, PA - Dec. 2008): The sofa table is now installed in a place of honor in Ira's home. As you could no doubt tell, she is incredibly happy both with the table itself (it is a work of art) and with the experience of watching it being made. Thank you both so much for making her so very happy! Those that have seen it have been very impressed. We are both so very happy to have had the experience of seeing this project from to fruition. Elvin is a remarkable craftsman!!!
I have purchased a table and a clock from Elvin and Tammy. Both pieces are, in my opinion, of museum quality. They are made from solid curly cherry and are exquisite. I cannot speak highly enough about their craftsmanship or customer service. I am looking forward to my next purchase.
Michael & Shelly (Blandon, PA - Sept. 2008): We can't thank you enough for the awesome entertainment center. Everyone that comes to our house comments on the quality and how beautiful it is. We even have a friend that works at a furniture store that said, "how good the workmanship is and he could not duplicate it with what he has."
Dan & Maria (Mertztown, PA - June 2008): As for the table, we consider it the centerpiece of the house. It is nice to tell people that it was made by a local craftsman.
Scott & Patty (Allentown, PA - June 2008): WOW is the best discription. We had 4 beautiful kitchen chairs made and they are comfortable, beautiful and a lasting investment in our home. We enjoyed working with Handcrafted Wood Furniture on a small table....made with a slab of wood from a tree from a family home......it was sentimental and it came out amazing....have ALL good things to say.
Marcia (Kutztown, PA - June 2008): On behalf of our co-captain, Laura and our Relay for Life team "Woody's Warriors"; I sincerely thank you for the Youth Chair you donated as a raffle prize. We appreciate your generosity and support for the American Cancer Society.
Keith (Shoemakersville, PA - May 2008): Thanks for the great work that you did for me.
I had Elvin make a large entertainment unit for my living room. The entire unit has made custom for my number and size of components that it holds. You could never find anything this nice or well made in a furniture store. Everytime someone sees it they ask me "Where did you buy that" - "It's beautiful".
Tom & Jill (New Ringgold, PA - Apr. 2008): Yes, I love my desk and built-in unit. Thank You. I don't think you guys are done with us - we have more that we will need done and when we are ready we will be sure to contact you.
~ 2007 ~ Bob & Kayoko (Macungie, PA - July 2007): Nice Website! Thanks for sharing it with us, and also for all the joy we are getting out of the corner cabinet you made for us, as we love it!
Scott & Patty (Allentown, PA - Nov. 2007): We are both thrilled with the table. It's amazing and we are so very thankful for your talent.
Dan & Maria (Mertztown, PA - Oct. 2007): As we have said before, we cannot be more happy with the table you have crafted from our chestnut that originated in my grandfather's old home. It's so nice to work with someone who cares as much as we do about the finish product. Elvin is really a true craftsman.
Bob & Anna (Fogelsville, PA - July 2007): Excellent work with many compliments from gusets. I always recommend to others.

Darryl & Barb (Mertztown, PA - Apr. 2006): We were very happy with our handcrafted kitchen pedestal table and chairs. It was completed in the time we were promised, and we are very satisfied with the craftsmanship and appearance. We will definitely use them again, when we are in need of more wood funiture.
Debra (Bethlehem, PA - Apr. 2006): Elvin Martin handcrafted several pieces of furniture for me. My favorite is the Pub Table (a picture of this is posted on the website). He is an incredible craftsman and you will not find furniture this well made anywhere else. This is furniture that will be in my family for years to come.
