How Can I Tell How Old My Flexsteel Couch Is?

The Flexsteel furniture company has been producing upholstered furniture since 1893 and have an excellent history of long lasting quality backed by a lifetime guarantee, according to consumer testimonials and the Flexsteel guarantee. It can be difficult to know how old a piece may be if you don't know where to look. All furniture pieces are labeled with a manufacturer build ticket that includes model, date of manufacture, and fabric used. If the ticket has become removed or lost, you can contact the customer service center at Flexsteel for additional assistance.

Instructions

    • 1

      Turn your Flexsteel furniture upside down.

    • 2

      Look at the underside of the seating area for a build ticket. It should be attached to the wooden frame if the furniture is considered an antique or attached to the lining fabric, if your piece is more modern.

    • 3

      Look at the ticket for the listed manufacturer date.

    • 4

      Contact the Flexsteel customer service center to help determine the manufacturing date if your furniture piece has been reupholstered and the ticket has been discarded, or if the build ticket cannot be located on the underside of the furniture. The Flexsteel website has an online form you can fill out. Make sure to include specific, descriptive details of your piece. Ask if you can send a photograph to aid in dating your furniture.
