Don Pierre was able to craft something quite special for us. An entertainment unit with matching bookcases to fit in an unusual space. He worked so well with my wife and I to come up with the design, and the finished product was simply gorgeous. It really makes the whole living room look stunning. Will definitely be a repeat customer for future custom furniture needs.

Thank you Don Pierre for working with us to design and create our new “beverage centre”. We love it and have already had lots of compliments on the design and quality. As an original piece, we particularly appreciated your willingness to help us get the measurements just right and your advice on the final colour was spot on! Another great Habitat Furniture piece for our collection.

I needed a new, unique bookcase and couldn’t find what I wanted from the big retailers. A friend told me about habitat. I’m so glad she did. Not only did I get what I wanted, I got great personalised service. Thank you!! Shop with the local small businesses people - you won’t regret it.

Dom made us comfortable from the first time we made a telephone enquiry. We hade been let down badly by the quality from a furniture supplier recently and were intent on not making the same mistake twice. We went to their showroom in Belfield and they were most helpful in helping us choose the design, the colour and the timber. We had recently had a new sunroom built on the side of our house and because of its size we needed to fit it out with three buffets to balance the long room. We ordered three buffets and waited merely two weeks for them to be built and delivered to our home and the colour was just perfect, the size and design was just to our requirements and everyone that sees them now is very impressed with what we received. We have no hesitation in recommending this family company to anyone looking for well built quality furniture Australian made using Australian timbers. It was an absolute delight to have done business with this lovely friendly family and should we need more furniture at anytime in the future we won't look around we shall go straight to Habitat. Get into the Habit and go Habitat! Robert and Julie-Ann Hawkins Kings Langley.

Dana from Habitat really provides outstanding customer service. She went above and beyond matching my new tv cabinet to my existing furniture. The price was very competitive and I love that she supports local Australian businesses and gives back to the community. I can see why they have won best small businesses award 2 years in a row! Well done Dana and team! Keep up the great service! I’ll be back for more pieces soon!

I can't speak highly enough of the service I have received from Habitat Furniture Warehouse over the past few months. My 23 year old daughter needed a new tallboy for her bedroom and she wanted it to look like the old one, but with improvements. Don was happy for her to design what she wanted, with 10 drawers on 5 levels, with the bottom three levels being deeper "blanket drawers". He was able to match the colour of her previous furniture and the quality of the craftsmanship and the materials is fantastic. Just today, he has delivered my next custom project. My husband had a pair to 1976 Aztec speakers that had terrific sound quality, however the boxes that housed the speakers were made of chipboard and were seriously deteriorating. I had tried for about 10 years to find a cabinet-maker who would take on the project, without success, until I showed the job to Don. He took the speakers away and had the team craft the new boxes to the exact same dimensions from lovely Tasmanian oak to match the media unit in the family room, taking one of the drawers of the unit with him so that the colour match with the unit was precise, and it is perfect. Then, he carefully removed the 3 speakers from each box and re-positioned them in the new Tassie oak boxes. They look wonderful and sound as good as ever. This was a tricky job and took time but both my husband and I are immensely satisfied with the result, which we have wanted for so long. Thank you, Habitat Furniture! We will keep you on speed dial because we know you can do wonders and provide us with style, quality and substance that can't be found anywhere else.

I ordered 3 x 2 drawer Tasmanian oak filing cabinets & a 4 drawer filing cabinet for my studio. They are beautiful & well made pieces of furniture & I'm utterly delighted with them. I was also very impressed with how quickly I received them, especially as I placed the order just before Easter. I ordered another 4 drawer filing cabinet & was amazed when it was able to be delivered just a week later! Dana & Don provided fantastic service & took so much care to match the colour of the stain precisely to all my other pieces. The prices are excellent - pieces of similar quality & style by other vendors are often several hundred dollars more.

I ordered a whole new dining table and chairs. I found the quality of the craftsmanship to be outstanding and considerably cheaper than quotes from other vendors. This homely business provides a fantastic service that I will continue to use for my future furniture needs.

We shopped around for months. No one seemed to be interested and the two qoutes we received were $2300 and $2800. A friend then mentioned habitat who quoted us $1200 for our entertainment unit. Dana and Don both very helpful and made and delivered as agreed. I'll be back and happy to recommend

It arrive today and I’m really impressed.Staff were fantastic especially a lady called Dana . I wasn’t sure if the book case colour would match my existing furniture. Dana asked me to send her a picture of my furniture then emailed me various things for me to consider. The book case looks amazing amoungst my old stuff so much so I’ll be buying some other things Dana suggested.

Sydney's most helpful furniture store. Previous owner Poppy was great and Dana is keeping up the standards. Replaced a dining table damaged on delivery.

What I like about this place is the great service, great prices and lots of choice. They can order things for you and make to measure. I love my TV unit that they made according to my sizes. Delivery was within the approximate timeframe given to me too, and delivery service was excellent too. Shops like this are hard to find.
