Walter E. Smithe Furniture & Design — Attraction in Ross Township

After a devastating house fire at my grandma’s home, we were left to rebuild not just the structure, but the feeling of comfort, warmth, and familiarity that made her house a home. From the moment I connected with Steven, I knew we were in the best possible hands.

Steven’s approach to furniture and interior design is nothing short of phenomenal. He took the time to understand not just the space, but the emotional weight of what we were trying to restore. Every detail he curated — from layout to material to color — brought life back into my grandma’s home in the most beautiful, thoughtful way.

The final result? Absolutely stunning. Every person who walks through the door has the same reaction: “This is gorgeous — who designed this?” It’s elegant, cozy, and perfectly tailored to my grandma’s lifestyle. Steven's ability to blend functionality with style is unmatched.

Beyond his incredible talent, Steven was kind, patient, and professional every step of the way. He turned what could’ve been a stressful process into something inspiring and even healing. I can’t thank him enough.

If you're looking for someone with vision, skill, and heart — Steven is...

I bought a gliding recliner in August of last year, 2020 and had pick out the fabric, I received the rocking chair in October and keep the chair even though it was the wrong mechanism to the chair. As I was purchasing the chair I asked repeatedly if the delivered to my area as I bought the service agreement also and was assured that I was in the delivery area. The chair started to make a popping sound then a big pop. The mechanism had broke, so I called the store in Valparaiso and was sent to warranty service and I was told that the company does not service my area, but they where looking for someone close to me to fix it that was may . I was toldThat they where working on it , in July I called again and was told that the new mechanism would be ordered and they would contact us to deliver the product and it is now August 10 and still no respond from anyone about the new mechanism. Sorry disappointed in how I an being dealt with. Everyone was sooo happy to take my money for the purchase , but when it came to make it right they really dropped the ball. Shame on them. This is not how to treat...

We bought all of the furniture for our new house here. The initial delivery was easy and went off without a hitch. We changed our mind about how we wanted to use some of the furniture and we called back to buy an additional bar stool. We were told it would be there in a week. Every week I would email to see if it was in and I was told "next week." I finally had my husband call and then all of a sudden it was in the following Monday. 3 weeks later than the original estimate. We went to pick it up today and it was pouring down rain. I asked the lady if she had any plastic we could put over it and I was told, they don't provide any materials or loading assistance and that should have been made clear to me. When I pushed back, she reluctantly went and got a bag that fit the stool perfectly. So, they have them, they just really don't want to give them out. It feels like you only get their good customer service if you spend thousands of dollars. The first purchase was good, but this most recent one has been a pain from...
