Frame Construction
Reinforced Joints
All high-stress joints are doubled into frames, not attached separately as a final step
Built- in Legs
Legs are built directly into frames, not attached separately as a final step.
Hand-made quality
All frames are assembled by hand by skilled experts
Hardwood Maple
All Smith Brothers frames are built from the finest kiln-dried maple hardwoods
In-house Mill Room
Our lumber is cut and our frames are assembled by our own experienced craftmen at our facilities in Berne. We do not outsource our framing as many furniture manufactures do.
Lifetime Warranty
We offer a lifetime warranty on every frame, guaranteed against warping or breakage.
Spring Units
Coil Spring Units
Under every seat cushion is a pre-engineered, heavy-gauge coil spring unit. These units are the best available in the industry and ensure rugged durability for many years.
Bent-Up Front Edges
The front edges on most of our spring units are elevated and flexible, providing soft seating even at the very end of the seat, and increasing the wearability of this high-stress area.
Secured by hand
Coil spring units are positioned by hand to the frame using high-quality suspension springs.
Firmer Outer Coils
The coils along the edges of our spring units are made of a thicker wire than the coils in the center, so the seat is firmer on the outside for more support
Individual Support
Coil spring units are individually suppoted in each position so each person sits independently.
Silent Operation
Our coil spring connections are insulated with protective coating to eliminate noise as you sit and get out of the seat.
Lifetime Warranty
Smith Brothers offers a lifetime warranty on every seat spring against breakage and loss of resiliency.
Foam and Padding
Highest quality foam
Our seating foam cores are the highest quality available to the furniture industry
Fiber-Wrapped
We wrap all seat cushions individually in a layer of polyester fiber for perfect contour and softness
Well-Padded Arms
We pad each arm with foam, cotton, and fiber for maximum comfort and a beatiful, finished look.
Chambered Backs
Back cushion fiber is blown into chambered bags to minimize settling and sagging over time.
Firmness Options
We offer three foam core firmness levels so you can find the seat that matches your needs.
Quality Testing
Foam cores we receive from our vendors are put through specialized testing to confirm that they are consistent to our exacting standards.
Lifetime Warranty
Smith Brothers offer a lifetime warranty on all seat foam cores against flattening or loss of resiliency.
"Comfort Wrinkles" are designed in this style to enhance the exceptionally soft feel of the seat and back cushions.
Motion Furniture
Hardwood Frames
Like our stationary furniture, we use the finest hardwood maple for our motion frames, and reinforce all high-stress joints with double dowels, screws, glue, and corner blocks.
Triangle Brackets
As an added measure of support in the high-stress areas of our pressback recliners, we use heavy duty triangle metal brackets in the joint corners.
Exclusive Arm Supports
We design our own exclusive arm support system to reduce the arm wobble that is common to other manufactures recliners
Coil Spring Seat Units
We use coil spring seating units-an uncommon feature in most motion furniture
No-Sag back springs
Where most manufactures use a woven fabric to support the backs, we use no-sag back springs in most pieces.
