    Thank you for a great service.
    You communicated before order and payment was concluded; and I was informed of the process of my order at all times. My table is a little smaller than I expected – selected the wrong size but I am satisfied with the quality as it’s natural and will show some imperfections. I look forward to receiving the balance of my order.

    Thank you for the awesome service.

  30. Arnie Angles

    I have been in retail for over 45 years, I have been highly critical of the levels of service in the sector over the last few years, telephones that ring for ever and not answered, lack of feedback on issues and a general uncaring, unprofessional service.
    how DELIGHTFULL it was to deal with Daniela and Handmade in Malawi, the baskets arrived today sooner than promised! ( good practice under promise and overdeliver!) We are super happy with the product and look forward to future dealing with you all. Daniela you are a star!

    Beautiful Craftsmanship and Top-Notch Service: I recently purchased two gorgeous armchairs and a handwoven cane headboard from Handmade in Malawi, and I couldn’t be more pleased. The craftsmanship of these pieces is outstanding. Each item is meticulously handmade, showcasing the skill and dedication of the artisans in Malawi. The natural materials and intricate details give the furniture a unique, warm character that truly stands out.
    The customer service was equally impressive. From my first inquiry to the final delivery, the team was responsive, friendly, and efficient. They made the entire process seamless, providing regular updates and ensuring that everything arrived in perfect condition.
    I highly recommend Handmade in Malawi to anyone looking for beautifully crafted, unique furniture. Their products add not just style, but also a sense of tradition and artistry to any home. I’m thrilled with my purchase and will definitely consider them for future needs.

    5-Star Review for Handmade in Malawi

    Incredible service and product!
    I had been searching for a 3m round rug for over a year with no luck and was almost ready to give up—until I discovered Handmade in Malawi! I’m absolutely over the moon with my beautiful new handwoven rug. It fits perfectly under our dining table and complements the boho, earthy style of our home so well.

    The entire experience was seamless—from placing the order on Sunday to receiving it by Thursday. The rug was thoughtfully packaged and arrived in perfect condition. Thank you, Handmade in Malawi, for your outstanding service and stunning craftsmanship. I’ll definitely be ordering from you again!

  163. Colleen

    Great service and stunning products (porcupine basket and wall tray). Very happy.
