Hi

Could we say:

1- I want it further better!

This sounds like: 'I want it more better'. Shocked

'I want it even better' is the right way to say it. Smile

I agree that "further better" is not OK.

Here is another alternative:
I want it further improved.

Thank you, Amy and Conchita! Laughing

Now please tell me if the following sound OK to you?

1- I want the table further back.
2- Move further ahead.
3- Move it further forward.
4- Hang this painting lowest.
5- Hang this painting highest.
6- Hang this painting the lowest.

Thanks again

Tom

All your sentences sound okay to me, except the last one.

and what about: far better?

Yes, "far better" would be similar to saying "much better".
