Re: Where did you buy your furniture from?

We have 2 couches and our bedroom set from Bobs. The bedroom set and 1 couch are about a year old and one couch is brand new. All are very nice and seem to be made well. I'm happy so far. Especially bc the price was right for our budget.

Re: Where did you buy your furniture from?

Living Room Sectional - Macys - happy with it...

Dining Room Table - Ikea - happy with it - not sure how it would hold up if we used it daily but it's more for show and for when we entertain a lot of people which is not very often...

Dining Room Chairs - Ikea & World Market - happy with them - same as above, they aren't used very often

Kitchen Table & Chairs - Target - happy so far - looks like a set I loved from Crate & Barrel but much less expensive

Bed, Mattress and Armoire - Rooms to Go - love the style of the furniture but the quality is questionable, we had some issues with them and ended up getting $$ back (which we had to really fight for)

Family Room Furniture - Levitz - I think they are out of business now, but still happy with them - the couches are a few years old but still comfy and they still look good...

Re: Where did you buy your furniture from?

We've bought from Restoration Hardware, Crate and Barrel, Raymour and Flanigan, Macys, Pottery Barn, Sears, JCPenney, Ikea, Netshops.com, Home Decorators.

In that order, they are what we liked the best to the least. Some of that stuff you should expect to be flimsy, like the last 2. We try not to buy "disposable" furniture with the intention of chucking it in 2-4 years but the last 2 were just a bench seat and a file cabinet. We probably will keep them a long time, since they don't get used much anyway so quality is not a huge concern.

Re: Where did you buy your furniture from?

Formal Living Room - couches, end tables & coffee table - Bobs pretty happy with it. We've had it a year and a half.

Den - chaise couch, end table, coffee table & TV stand/table - Bobs. Love the couch but not so crazy about the end table and coffee table. We've gotten a lot of chips in the two and it's not like we're slamming stuff down on them. We had these pieces about a year and a half.

Dining room table & chairs - Raymour and love it. Had it about 5 months.

Master bedroom - Bobs - not crazy about it.

I think going forward we'd buy only couches from Bobs and the other stuff from Raymour.

Re: Where did you buy your furniture from?

Raymore and Flannagan, I am ok with it, quality of it is good, but I wish I would have spent the money on more eclectic pieces. Its too contemporary for me.

Raymour and Flannigan for our bedroom set and mattress and a couch in one of our living rooms. They are great and have great customer service !
The Place for leather couches in my DH "mans den"... not so great. Nice couches but they took forever and a day to deliver ! Good thing we didn't need right away.
And the rest of my furniture was either vintage or inherited.

It actually doesnt matter WHERE you get your furniture from, but more so who manufactures it...

We got our couch from rooms unlimited a couple months ago... no issues since it was in stock and was delilvered in a matter of days

We made the mistake of ordering our dining room set through them though... We're still waiting for it (suppossed to be delivered this week) ans its been almost 3 months since we placed the order

Rooms Unlimited is the absolute worst place... Just look them up on Better Business Bureau and you will RUN away... far far away

Our table that we're still waiting on looks like an excellent piece of solid, sturdy furniture by Better homes and gardens

ETA: We saw a bedroom set we liked from rooms unlimited and decided to buy it through a company in NC instead... The prices are sooooo much better.... highpointfurnituresales.com

Re: Where did you buy your furniture from?

I've purchased a sectional sofa and coffee & end table from Bare Boards in Bohemia and their service is terrific. As a PP said though, it's the manufacturer that dictates the quality of the furniture, not the store unless it's their own brand like Lazy Boy. We purchased our dining room set (Drexall Heritage) from Furnitureland South (on-line) and we were very happy with the service and the quality.
