by HIGH POINT — In typical market fashion, Home News Now began stopping by showrooms early and finishing up market late in the cycle with visits starting two weeks ago this weekend and continuing through late Tuesday. It gave us the chance to maximize our time at market and see as many companies as possible with a mix of appointments and drive-by drop-ins. As always, we were grateful for the opportunity because it gave us the chance to see some terrific product on both the case goods and upholstery sides of the business. The visits also covered the price spectrum starting at near promotional price points all the way to the upper end of the market. That said, we also spent time with some our favorite people in the industry and we are grateful for this as well, as they took time out of their busy market schedules to show us the highlights of this season’s introductions. Below are some of those highlights, representing just a glimpse of all we saw at market.
