5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful, delightful read, a must 4 getting a good buy, 20 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I was well equipped to shop for furniture after reading Mr. Lewin's informative book. I took the book shopping with me and the sight of it alone made salespeople wary! (Kind of evened the playing field!) A delightfully written, very helpful text for old and new shoppers alike.

4.0 out of 5 stars A strong basic guide to intellegant furniture buying, 2 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This book describes what you need to know about furniture in a simple, yet educated, approach with just enough humor to keep the reader interested in what could be a tenuous subject. The author obviously has the background to cover the subject in a thorough yet not too textbookish style.
