We ordred a large butcher block (red oak, 8 feet by 3 feet by 2 inches). The experience from beginning to end was great and the quality of the butcher block is off the charts. Really can't say enough about how great we feel about this whole process.

A couple of highlights:

1. Joe and the team at Armani were fantastic to work with. We ended making a size change a couple of days after ordering and they were very accommodating (they hadn't made any critical cuts yet, so we were still in the clear).

2. Can't say enough about how beautiful the wood is. There are butcher blocks and then there are these! We just completed a very large remodel and with all kinds of great upgrades, but the butcher block is the piece that gets everyone's attention. We're very proud of it!

We shopped around on price and Armani is very competitive (even a little cheaper in most cases) and I can't imagine anyone beating the quality or the experience. I wouldn't hesitate to work with these guys again (in fact, I'm about to place a second order).
