The owner is tops. I had this piece of art made by Steve and John at Artistry In Design. Steves furniture skills is above and beyond, using no screws. He even delivered and put together this piece including the glass he picked up from John.I would go to no one else to have my furniture made. He will be building our music cabinet next. Has a large selection of wood. Go for it and support our local businesses.

We have used Steve on four projects now including a fireplace mantel, a large bar top, a large countertop for our kitchen island, and a top for a dining room pony wall. Steve was great to work with and came up with some great ideas. In fact, we liked his ideas so much we gave him creative license to do what he thought best for each of our projects to showcase the Mesquite. We couldnt be happier with the finished products. They look stunning! Plus, Steves prices was very reasonable, especially given the craftsmanship that goes into the finished projects. We recommended Steve to several of our neighbors who are already talking with him to create custom pieces for their homes. Terry, who makes all the templates for Steve and performs the installs, does an excellent job as well. He makes sure the finished products fit perfectly.

Not a pleasant experience. I missed the sign saying no pets and was curtly told I had to take the dog out because mesquite sawdust kills dogs, which is a lie. Then the owner said he had to stay with me and watch me, because of his insurance. Another lie. He had no trouble leaving me when other customers came in, and he never came back. They were clearly more important than me, and he went off to show them aropund his showroom and shop. After standing there for a while, while my dog baked in the car, I left. I would rather shop at a place that treated me with even minimal courtesy. Its not like mesquite is hard to come by in Arizona.

Steves a wealth of knowledge on all things Mesquite. He was super helpful in my first mesquite bar top project. So glad to have this option in Tucson!

Called to see if they were open (something we have to do these days) and was told yes come down anytime we’re open. Stopped on a Friday afternoon and was greeted at the gate and asked what could he help me with. I showed him my couple of ideas/projects #1a 3-shelf unit and #2 a bench for in the bathroom, he was very helpful in picking out the best pieces of mesquite for both projects and told me they would have them done on the next Tuesday. That same Friday night he called saying that he had some extra time and completed the cuts and sanding and that I could pickup on Saturday. When I stopped on Saturday I meet the owner and found out that I had talked to his son on Friday (so nice to have owners and family members with a hands on business in these days of so much unknown times) please stop and see what they have to offer, the showroom is full of items and ideas, not to mention the years of knowledge available.

Traveled down to this place pretty disappointed. You are required to have this guy with you too look at the wood but he acts like he is doing you a favor . My answer is if your so worried we are going to steal a piece of wood put your office at the front then you can monitor everything. And put prices on the wood because we are not mind readers . $2.00 a pound, put a scale out ? Total waste of time!

I spoke with Steve about wanting 5 custom mesquite shelves made and we just had them installed yesterday. He was easy to deal with, completed the shelves in the time he said he would (very reasonable time frame) and the wood and work is absolutely beautiful. We will use this company again soon!

King Mesquite Sawmill & Lumber has changed ownership. Previous owner retired and sold the business. I assumed that the quality workmanship and service would continue to live up to the reputation I was totally wrong. Ryan R as well as Kevin Kelly reviews I totally agree

What a pleasant experience it was. I approached them to purchase floorboards. They quoted a reasonable price and I got a profitable deal for a high-quality product. Extremely reliable and dependable.

Product quality is great plus they are easy to communicate. My communication with them was great. I got all my queries resolved and finally submitted a deal with them for 10 pieces of Mesquites. I bagged a profitable deal. Thanks!!

My experience exactly mirrored those of the negative reviewers here. Was VERY surprised to see such a favorable rating on here when I looked... But 2-3 minutes spent looking through the 5 star β€œreviews” and β€œtheir” associated user profiles, and anyone with half a brain can see they are fake and generated using false user accounts (likely by a service engaged by the business). Reading the owner responses after realizing this fact makes me cringe. Wish I’d have noticed all this before attempting to patronize the sawmillβ€”if I had, I’d have saved myself the colossal waste of time and a pretty unpleasant experience.

Wow! I felt intimidated by the person that came out to see me. He looked at me like he wanted to fight and stood as though he was waiting for me to attack! I believe he has all the customers he wants and doesnt need my money. Too bad he ruins what should be a wonderful experience.

Couple of issue for the poor rating. Guy who I dealt with (was sitting in the office) is a cold fish at best. For me I like to walk around and choose my lumber - this guy prohibited it. In fact he would not let me walk around nor touch the lumber. He wanted to pull it all out / down. Finally they are kinda expensive. As an alternative I would recommend the Mesquite Sawmill just south of Tubac in Tumacacori.

Review β„–28

I’ve never felt so taken advantage of in my life. Prices for lumber only air dried not kiln dried to insure that bugs inside the wood are killed allowing for unstable wood was being sold for prices that equates to about 3 times the normal going rate of equavelant wood elsewhere. Spoke with the owner in regards of his air drying vs kiln drying and he doesn’t know the facts that bugs are killed in a kiln heated to 130 degrees held at 24 hrs. With air dried lumber you can have a finished product made and then 1-6 months down the road bugs will start emerging from your piece. There are articles about this all over the internet and books. I will never waste my time using this lumber service again.
