Everything was smooth and communication was good on the delivery. One small recommendation is for the delivery guys to wear shoes covering when they enter the house.

It used to be that I only appreciated Danish Inspirations for their eclectic set of modern imports from around the world. But as I got to know the owners and their employees, I am loyal because of the ethos of the company. Not only have they taken care of even the smallest issues without haste, but they look after their people unlike any other company I've witnessed. Just ask one of their delivery personnel how long they've been with Danish Inspirations.

The common answer is "20 years". Honestly, I don't know why the Houston Chronicle hasn't written about this family owned business that brings innovation in style and in accountability to our town. Their location on Fondren road isn't the best, but it is well worth a visit if anything to peruse cutting-edge classes of furniture in a warm environment.

We've been dealing with Jan and Jannick now for over 10 years, so can vouch for what amazing furniture they bring from overseas to Houston. We've purchased almost all of our home's furniture from Danish Inspirations and keep going back for more. You won't be disappointed in their modern yet timeless offering of furniture and their customer service is second to none.

Hight quality, contemporary and modern furniture, outstanding customer service, they have inventory at the stores however you can ask for furniture catalog. Price $$, there are delays for shipments due to C19.
