Having a Blast with Retro Dining Furniture in Your Pad

Best Selling and Most Popular Retro Dining Furniture

The original founder of Totally Kids furniture had a love for retro and vintage dining furniture and sought out those relationships at the big trade shows in additon to more traditional pieces we are known for. A funny thing started happening as people found our adult retro dining furniture and loved it! For example, some of our most popular and biggest sellers are the Hound Dog 1950's Retro Kitchen Table and ChairsHappy Days 50's Retro Table and Chairs, and Chubbie Checker 1950's Round Retro Table and Chairs. Today we are one of the most popular destinations for retro tables, chairs, stools, booths, and accessories. No doubt you'll find some of our pieces in some of the most popular diners in the United States and homes of happy customers.

What makes our retro furniture and shopping experience so appealing?

Based on our reviews and customer feedback, there is a combination of things happening. First and foremost, we think our personal shoppers bring a level of furniture expertise and comfort.

1. They know our retro furniture and can answer detailed questions on the available colors and styles. There are so many potential color and design combinations, that sometimes customers just need help in narrowing down what they want. Some people are aware of a certain vintage style, but don't realize how many options there are within that look or design.

2. You can talk to a real person who knows about the product. Especially for our customers who are not used to or comfortable spending their hard earned money online, they want to talk to a real person who is knowledgeable.

The details in the retro styling are there and the quality is excellent. That makes the nostalgia stronger and the feeling of value for your dollar more satisfying.

3. At the end of the day you want to feel like you spent your money well. This furniture sees a lot of use for eating, chatting, and showing off. It has to stand up to constant use while still looking good and being easy to maintain. We certainly think the reviews speak to that.

Is the above a little bit of flag waving and patting on the back? Absolutely. We believe in, invest in our employees and we hope that shows.
