As a representative for Jess Crate, and after receiving numerous phone calls about orders never received, I want to set the record straight. We are not in any way connected to cratefurniture.com. About a year ago, cratefurniture.com was purchasing its crate furniture from our company, hence the reason our pictures are the same. We have completely stopped supplying cratefurniture.com due to numerous overdue and unpaid invoices. Jess Crate is a family owned business and a very reputable company, which has been in business for over 26 years. All of our furniture is manufactured at our plant in Mount Gilead, North Carolina. Our sales office is located in Philadelphia. We have e-mail, which is checked daily, and our sales office is open from 9-5 est Monday thru Friday, and 10-4 on Saturdays. Our sales associates, not an automated answering service, can be reached at any time during business hours. If you have any questions regarding Jess Crate Furniture, please feel free to contact us at (215) 625-3600 or (800) 220-JESS.

I recently "googled" the term "crate furniture" and I found something I had not seen before. A company named "JessCrate.com" is doing business. My browser tells me that it was created (or last modified in 2007). What is curious is that the merchandise, the pricing, and even the layout of the pages looks just a little too similar to our friends at CrateFurniture.com. Perhaps having not followed through with clients under this name, the owner(s) have simply set up a new operation under a different name. Just like CrateFurniture, they do not have a means of ordering online (which would enable you to generate and keep a copy of an order form), but asks you to call a toll-free number. Also interesting, is that JessCrate.com does not list where it is physically located. Buyer Beware!
