Amazing couch. Quality is superb and the Nimbus is as comfy as I dreamed about it. The sage velvet is gorgeous, and so soft. Already had one animal related mess and it was easily cleaned, without staining. Worth the investment.

I am thrilled with my custom sectional from Candace & Basil. It is exactly what I wanted, and more. The team at Candace & Basil was helpful in helping me select the fabric and style that would be perfect for my space. Customer service was always responsive. From choosing materials to having the furniture delivered into my condo unit, it was an easy process. I have received so many compliments on this piece. The quality is amazing, and SO worth it. Thank you Candace & Basil!!

Stunning custom pieces! Gaurav was amazing from the first call to help plan a 100% customizable set up that fits our space. We chose C&B for the quality materials they use and we were updated on progress pictures throughout the making, until shipping and delivery. The couch is super comfortable and the talk of our living space!

I had a great experience at Candace and Basil Toronto. I purchased end tables and a dresser as we as the Celine XL King bed. Anna was very helpful and made sure it was made to accommodate our adjustable bed bases. The end result is a gorgeous bedroom!

I love our beautiful King Clarissa custom bed! It’s a statement piece in our bedroom. Not only it’s a gorgeous bed to look at but it’s built to perfection. I love how strong and sturdy this bed is. The material is great too and easy to clean. Overall I’m very happy with this purchase and their service. This bed is worth every penny. I highly recommend it .

Fabulous experience with Candace and Basil in Toronto, and it worked out perfectly as we were moving to Victoria BC, and it was great that they came and met the moving truck on moving day and everything fit in the truck perfectly and it all worked out ….then we put it together in Victoria and it’s beautiful and very comfortable and we love it❤️

I recently purchased the custom Clarissa bed from Candace and Basil through their online platform, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. Ordering was a breeze on their website, and we were eagerly awaiting our new bed. The bed is absolutely phenomenal! The quality is top-notch; it’s firm, well-built, sturdy, and incredibly easy to clean. We have zero complaints! We’re absolutely in love with our new bed :)

Love our new couch! We’re really impressed with the quality. It looks even better in person. It’s really comfortable and quite firm (which is good cause it will soften over time). Overall we are really happy with our order and will definitely shop here again!

I had an exceptional experience with Candace & Basil. I was struggling to find furniture that fit my home’s awkward layout, but Gaurav and the team came to the rescue with their custom-built solutions. We got a beautiful custom Stanton love seat and their famous Clarissa bedframe that fit perfectly into our space and looked amazing. The prices were reasonable, and the customer service was outstanding – they were incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. Their furniture’s quality is outstanding, ensuring it will stand the test of time. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for quality furniture and excellent service!

I absolutely love the bed we ordered from Candace and Basil. We had to order a custom king bed due to narrow stairways up to our bedroom, and I am floored by how beautiful this bed turned out. It’s so well constructed and comfortable - plus it’s Canadian made which an added bonus. Thank you and I would definitely purchase from Candace and Basil again!

Amazing quality and shipped on time! It took 2 of us to assemble but it was easy to do. We ordered Natural fabric which is more of sand colour vs linen, but still beautiful.

I questioned myself about ordering a platform bed online and even more so from across the country and one my husband and I would have to put together. There was nothing locally that measured up to the design of the Clarissa platform bed. It was delivered and packaged well that each piece was in perfect shape. We unpackaged it and it was very easy for the two of us to put together in one afternoon. This is a solid piece of furniture and we couldn’t be happier with the finished product. Gorgeous

OMG am I in SHOCK at how amazing this sofa is!! It is the nicest thing I have ever sat on. Looks amazing too, photo doesn’t really get that across. Modern without being one of those horribly uncomfortable and utilitarian type couches. It’s honestly beautiful. The leather—which is actually this high-quality non-scratch fake leather—is BUTTER soft.

This bed is MADE IN CANADA, and is incredibly well built. You can seriously tell the difference in quality between this and another off-the-shelf piece of furniture. It was shipped to us from Mississauga in three separate parcels, and it was very easy to assemble.

Candace & Basil helped create a beautiful new look with this custom king bed frame below. I'm in love! The linen fabric is a warm white and the untufted look gives it a clean, sophisticated look.

Candace and Basil is an absolute gem in Miami! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and enjoyable. The quality and craftsmanship of the furniture are outstanding, and the attention to detail truly sets them apart.It was a pleasure working with Garov, who went above and beyond to make everything perfect. He expedited the furniture being made and was incredibly professional and responsive throughout the process. His commitment to customer satisfaction really stood out.If you’re looking for beautiful furniture and exceptional service, I can’t recommend Candace and Basil enough.

I have purchased multiple times from C&B for both myself, and for clients and I have had nothing but excellent experiences! I had them do a custom bed for myself and its the most beautiful and well made bed ever. Also can't beat the amazing pricing points, and being Canadian made. They are one of my go-to when sourcing for clients. So happy with my bed, Thank you guys!

We needed a very specific measurement for our couch and found this store that makes custom furniture, and we’re so glad we did. The entire process was great and felt very personalized from start to finish. Communication from the team was excellent the whole way through and the owner himself reaches out with any updates or questions that they may have to make sure you’re getting exactly what you want. They’re truly able to accommodate whatever you want, which is such a plus. The materials are high quality and the end product is absolutely amazing. We couldn’t be happier.

We went to Candace and Basil to get a custom size mattress, bed frame and bedding for our new home. They were really knowledgeable, gave great advice and offered a wide selection of materials and designs. It was ready on schedule ( which is rare with custom furniture) and we love it! I would highly recommend!
