Using this knowledge, in the late 80’s Keith & Scott began buying a few lines of newly made furniture that met their criteria of being solidly constructed and fairly priced. They started with unfinished solid pine furniture. Customer response was extremely positive, so they continued to add new furniture lines. Now Fenton MacLaren features a wide variety of new furniture, including beautiful Amish made furniture, upholstered sofas and chairs, and a huge selection of bookcases.
Although Fenton MacLaren no longer sells vintage furniture, Keith & Scott’s many years of experience in furniture restoration have given them the expertise needed to select new furniture that offers the best combination of quality and value. They aren’t in the business of selling “disposable” furniture – they want their customers to be happy with their purchases for years to come.
Keith and Scott are still hands-on owners (who don’t have to leave for classes anymore!) and their wives Kathy and Mara Lee have joined them in the business. This family business has thrived for 38 years because of the Parkers’ personal commitment to customer service. They strive to make furniture shopping a pleasure and will do all they can to create a satisfied customer.
