Shortly after my parents got married, they got an oak table and chair set for their kitchen. This is the set that I've used all my life until I left for college. My parents took the table and chairs with them when they moved. Then, they got a newer and better set, and decided to give the old one to me and my wife. Now, I'm still using the same table and chairs I grew up with.
Even more impressive, it's all still strong and solid. Sure, the finish isn't the best, and there are many scratches if you look closely, but it's all still working—after more than 25 years.
I am grateful for old solid oak kitchen furniture.
