Not every customer pays attention to the shape, color, texture, etc. of a restaurant table base. Generally, people only pay attention to the table base if it's wobbly, or the table itself is leaning.

As the years go on, Frank's company keep perfecting this style of restaurant pedestal base, and his son, Michael, is continuing the legacy with JI Bases. JI Bases is the result of many years of collaboration with the industry to provide the best materials that are engineered for long-term stability. Relationships that were built throughout this process are still buying JI Bases today.
JI Bases (meaning Frank and Michael) have been manufacturing table bases for over 60 years. That give us an edge. We know that many table bases supplier swear by the stamped steel top plates (some with only 4 points of contact to the table top).

After 60+ years in the business we only provide our customers with the best materials, the best products, and the best customer service before, during and after the purchase.
