Cameo is Now a One-Stop Furniture Showroom
Cameo opened up here in Montreal in 1960 as a sofa and sofa-bed manufacturer. The family-owned business gained success and notoriety through their superior quality sofa-beds. Now with a new family at its helm, Cameo Collection is a one-stop furniture showroom featuring trendy and innovative pieces and accessories. Today, you can plan your whole layout with sofas, sectionals, chairs, kitchen benches, headboards, bunk beds or wall beds, and then select finishing touches such as tables, lamps, artwork and vases.
Cameo is special in this city because you (or with the guidance of an in-house interior designer) can design your own pieces without restrictions. You can modify both depth and height to fit your body type along with your preferred cushion comfort level – from hard to soft. Clients can choose between regular foam, foam wrapped with dacron for more comfort, velva foam or feathers and down. The sofa backs are well stuffed, using either poly fiber fill or feathers and down or, for a sleek look, a foam back.
Next up, enter their fabric and leather gallery where they offer over 5,000 choices of high quality fabrics (Robert Allen, Kravit, JF, Duralee, Avant Garde, Schumacher). Select your stitching (French stitching or piping) and lastly, you can pick the colour and type of foot – wood or metal.
The advantages of ordering from a local family business are timing, pricing and local employment. Whether it is a custom or standard piece, it can be delivered in 3-4 weeks. Besides the pride you feel keeping jobs here in our city, you get the huge added benefit of only having to pay manufacturer rates and not retail prices.
Their furniture manufacturing quality includes:
– complete kiln dried solid hardwood frame: birch or maple
– assembled with countersink screws and glue for added durability (not staples)
– collapse resistant quality polyurethane foam cushioning and padding
– a tight heavy-gauge spring support system
– commercial quality 299 coil 4 1/2″ high mattress or an upgradable 299 coil with a 1” memory foam top for an even firmer sleep
– zippered cushions, seats and backs for easy care and maintenance
– well stuffed backs
– fitted arm caps
– custom tailoring and stitching
Cameo sofas are creatively built with removable backs to fit through any doorway. Deliveries are made by knowledgeable and reputable staff who can remove and re-install the backs on site and position the new piece in your room.
Sofa-beds come in singles, jr. doubles, doubles or queen size beds. You can also order kangaroo beds (with under mattress storage), European chair-beds, wall-beds with soft self-opening movement and upholstered headboards. Loved the couch which popped up into sturdy bunk beds.
They do offer re-upholstering for older Cameo couches you may have. Custom-made sofa-bed sheets and mattress covers are also available. Ask about their Crypton treatment for fabrics which repels all stains.
Cameo just keeps improving by integrating high quality materials and craftsmanship coupled with individualized customer service.
