What does this mean?

Good afternoon, Mr. Timms,
Thank you for submitting photographs for appraisal at Mearto.
You have a pair of American Colonial Revival maple short-post twin beds, possibly made at the time your grandparents acquired them in the 1930s. Like the other pair of beds you have submitted photographs of, this pair can be refinished without diminishing value and an improved appearance may increase their value. Additionally, they can be used without diminishing their value.
I hope this information has been useful to you; please let me know if you require additional information. Thank you again for using Mearto.
