Customer reviews
"I have been buying from Rent-A-Center for many years and I have never had any problems, always receiving with a good attitude and on time. My last purchase was a bedroom set, and Fernando carefully assembled each piece. They are highly recommended and very respectful whenever I’ve had to cancel a delivery. I find the prices affordable, and I appreciate that they deliver the furniture right away. Thank you 🙏🏼 Luis, Fernando, Emmanuel, and Gustavo."
Have been a customer for years. I want to thank all the staff for always helping me. Recently a family member needed furniture and they made possible for me to get my stuff easy and quick. Delivered on time, cleaned. Staff is friendly and helpful. I will keep going going back. Thank you so much.
Rent A Center in El Centro has been helping my family get furniture and fill our home for over 4 years now. Louis once again helped us get great deals and scheduling for same as cash possibilities. Upon delivery it was Fernando and Gustavo putting in the work to get the furniture through the house and put together. Outstanding job from the whole team. They really work well together between the store and delivery communications. Once again, they have worked to make our home a more comfortable space. Thank you from our family.
