Our first New York factory opened its doors in 1982, where painted footprints on the sidewalk were used to guide the curious passerby into our shop. The curious became clients, and their experience of quality, craftsmanship and design expertise was quickly shared with the greater New York area. Classic Sofa expanded from Brooklyn to Manhattan, establishing a flagship showroom at 22nd Street and Fifth Avenue, eventually growing to four in Ridgewood, NJ, Manhasset, LI and Greenwich, CT.Despite the success of the early years, Classic Sofa was hit by the reality of the 2008 recession, and like many fine retailers during this time, closed our brick-and-mortar locations while maintaining production through our factory, then in Mt.

Classic Sofa reupholstered my living room sofa, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. We were having a hard time getting the right fabric, and the owner met with us four times, once at his showroom, twice in our home, and once at the Design Center where many fabric houses have showrooms. He was always upbeat, helpful, accommodating, and a pleasure to work with.

Once we decided on a fabric, the work was completed quickly and the workmanship is first rate. I am a very satisfied customer, and I would unequivocally recommend this company to anyone.

I don't know where to start. I found Classic Sofa online. Emailed for an appraisal. Super quick friend response. Once we figured out the details Blake sent me all the fabric swatches I needed to make a decision. He took care of every last detail and made corrections when needed. All with a can do attitude and a smile on his face. The quality of the workmanship, the materials, the service, the follow up, the delivery. wow.

Class act. Truly a gem in the industry. Blake is a young guy with old world charm. He has so much pride in his work and there is a reason. It's amazing. Call Blake at Classic Sofa. You won't be disappointed.

This is the third sofa we have had built by Classic Sofa. We are so pleased! The sofa looks beautiful. The craftsmanship is wonderful. The delivery was terrific. Every single detail was handled by Blake Anding and he made sure everything was perfect. He was a joy to work with.

I had 2 Classic Sofas Couches, two Chairs and an ottoman custom made by Classic Sofa in 2000. One of the couches had a pull out bed. My family loved them. Now 22 years later I was able to ask Classic Sofa to reupholster all of these pieces for a new apartment. Blake was a pleasure to work with and we love them. They look beautiful and are incredibly comfortable.

And the whole pick up, reupholstery and return process was incredibly speedy. I highly recommend them and would use them again. A custom sofa is made to your specifications and that makes a big difference. The price was very reasonable and the service terrific. I am so happy to have these sofas updated so beautifully.

Awesome. Can't describe how amazing Blake and the entire crew were when it came to designing and building our furniture. Blake took the time to make sure all our questions were answered fully. He made sure all design parameters were met for the space and carefully considered details we didn't even think of. 100% would recommend.

We love our classic sofa. Blake, the owner, provided unbelievable service and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. We got to see the showroom when we came to pick our fabric and it was incredible to see behind the scenes of the operation and the attention to detail that goes into each piece. While the price is steep because the pieces are custom, the quality is extraordinary and well worth the investment.

We have had Classic Sofa furniture for decades. It is so well made and comfortable that we have recovered it several times as our decor has changed. We recently moved and custom ordered new chairs and a sofa to fit in our new living room. It is gorgeous! Working with Blake is a pleasure because he knows the industry and has a great sense of design.

He helped us design the style we wanted and sent swatches of fabric for us to make selections since we don't live in NYC. The turn around time was amazing.even during this troubled time of back orders and shipping delays. His team provides the best customer service. Classic Sofa is simply the best!

Dealing with Blake and his team was a pleasure, responsive and professional. They just delivered my two beautifully reupholstered chairs. These were 20+ years old made by Lewis Mittman with a lot of wear and tear. The craftsmen at Classic Sofa made the chairs brand new once again. Delighted. 11/15/21 Just took delivery of beautifully done matching arm chair covers and delivered directly to my doorstep. Craftsmen and customer service, just the best.

After five years we decided it was time to get a new sofa. When you would sit down on it the cushions compressed so much it felt like a subterranean adventure. After a recent basement conversion, we no longer had the same door access used to bring in the sofa. Our only option now was to have the sofa cushion foam inserts redone. We decided to go to Classic Sofa. Blake, the owner, suggested that we redo the fabric as well since it was made of inferior material and wouldn't hold up well.

We went with his suggestion and the end result can be seen in the before and after photos. What you can't experience from the photos is the comfort we now enjoy sitting and lounging on the sofa.orders of magnitude better than the original. Thank you Blake and the wonderful staff at Classic Sofa.

Blake replaced my sofa cushions with a more comfortable foam and now the family is so much more comfortable. The pandemic had delayed this, but once he was able to enter our building, It was done quickly., i. Classic Sofa does stand behind their product, and that is very special. Blake is very helpful, patient.,r esponsive and a pleasure to do business with.

Classic Sofa is my go-to place when purchasing a sofa for my apartment. I bought my last sofa in 1993, 28 years ago. I had it reupholstered once, but finally decided it was time for a replacement. I went directly back to Classic Sofa. Blake helped me to select the 80 Wythe Sleeper couch in Chivasso Hot Madison CH1249/107. It is perfect! Classic beauty and luxurious comfort. I can't wait to have guests so they can try out the sleeper. Blake is wonderfully knowledgeable and gave me great honest advice at every step. I couldn't be happier!

Classic Sofa of NYC is just that. CLASSIC! We purchased our first sofa from them in 1999 and only because we moved and it didn't work in the new space did we give it away. We bought two sofas in 2017 for our living room and just received our sectional for the family room last week. We love everything about their sofas. Customer service, workmanship and quality are outstanding.

The sofas are comfortable and are everything you imagine them to be. Blake was such a pleasure to work with. He took the time to drive 2.5 hrs to see the space and consult with us on how to best fill the our family room. He communicated with us on a regular basis while the work was being performed. He updated us with pictures and emails of our new piece.

He invited us to a 'sit-test' before cutting the fabric to insure we were 100% happy with our size selection. He provided us with an endless supply of fabric samples via mail. He was part of the delivery team and followed up to check if we are happy with our choice. 'Happy' we are! Thank you Blake and your entire team for making our family room so comfortable and very pleasing to the eye; We wish you all the best and many more happy customers. Conny & Phil

I had my original Classic Sofa made almost 20 years ago and was so happy to learn that they also reupholster! For a fraction of the price of a new one, they reinforced the structure, made new cushions and delivered me the finished product in less than two weeks! Blake was so nice to work with. We were able to do everything remotely and it couldn't have been easier.

Highly recommend Blake and his team at Classic Sofa - true craftsmen and a gorgeous end product. We designed a custom couch to fit a unique space 3 years ago, and then this year added a new piece to fit our new apartment. Blake is super easy to work with, very responsive and provides high end customer service. The couch is gorgeous and just perfect for us - still looks like new nearly 3 years on, even with 2 young kids climbing and spilling on it all the time.

Totally grateful I found Classic Sofa. I had an antique sofa/loveseat that needed reupholstery and they did a terrific job. Picked the fabric which they took care of ordering, Classic Sofa picked up the sofa and a week later they delivered it back to my apartment! Extremely impressed with the results. And their customer service is divine. Blake and his craftsmen made it a seamless, easy, and friendly process.

We spent over a year looking and hemming and hawing over our best options for a new couch. We wanted something that would perfectly fit us and our needs, and we were so tired of buying a cheaper couch that we need to replace every few years. All signs pointed to Classic Sofa. They are so easy to work with, you get to customize every last detail, . and they were so fast (like 4 wks vs 6-12 wks elsewhere).

They might be a little pricier than a box store, but you get a lifetime guarantee and amazing customer care for life. My husband's parents have had their Classic Sofa for over 20 years and it's as comfortable as ever. We've been enjoying ours for a little over a month now and it has been worth every penny. This couch is going to be with us for a long time, and we are so excited about it!

Blake and Jacob did an amazing job of creating the perfect couches for our new office. We showed them a picture and they worked their magic and created exact replicas. We are so happy with their work and communication throughout the whole process! One of the couches is in our reception area and everyone comments about it! We cannot wait to work with them again and recommend them for any custom work!

We had classic sofa custom made our beautiful sofa and needed a spring repair. I worked with Jacob and I was so impressed with the speed of his response and how quickly he picked it up, repaired it and had it back at my house the next day! He was so nice, professional and did the job so fast. We are so happy with Classic Sofa, it was a great experience working with them. I would highly recommend them. Louise F

My sofa, made by Classic Sofa a decade ago, was recently recovered. In addition to reupholster the reasonable estimate included new back and seat cushions and remaking the basic structure so the piece was brand new. The craftsman did a superb job, I went to the Bronx showroom, saw the work in progress. Now the sofa is home I am thrilled. Jacob and Blake were always available, answered my every query.

Pick up and delivery were on time, at my convenience ( how rare that is) I cannot speak highly enough of this company. I agree with Marion S. who said five stars are not enough, I give them ten

For me this also was Classic Sofa redux. After 30 years and one re-covering it was time for 2 new sofas. How do you say wonderful things about a company, their product, and the people who work there. 5 stars is not enough. Blake and his team are amazing, my sofas are gorgeous and i guess that they will probably outlive me
