Olson + Bakers service and products have been outstanding. I can't recommend Jonathan at Olson + Baker enough.
He is an absolute star and has gone out of his way to provide superb service.
It has been an absolute pleasure buying a lovely piece of furniture from Olsen + Baker. Russell has been a delight to deal with, keeping me informed at every step of the delivery, even down to which colour would fit with my decor - nothing was too much.
I can’t recommend highly enough.
Beautiful and high quality furniture!
Excellent delivery and customer services, even during difficult times like Covid 19.
Excellent product but more importantly during these difficult times was the customer service level and great delivery team ....
take note Heal’s as you’ve not got a clue how to service customers
Excellent communication and speedy delivery...
Couldn't have been better and will certainly buy from the company again.

Purchased a beautiful rug from here and had a smooth overall buying experience.
Olson + Baker were wonderful to deal with.
We purchased our item (a beautiful coat hook) but had to delay delivery due to a trip overseas.
We weren't dealing with an automated system, just real people who cared enough to help.
Bought some lovely wine glasses as a gift, quick delivery, great customer service and high quality product.
Would definitely buy from Olson and Baker again.

I would definitely buy from them again.

Customer service informed me of this & then followed up after delivery to make sure it arrived safely.
Highly recommend!
