This place is a dump. I financed a bedroom set, and they delivered it broken. After months of calling to have them look for the damaged items, they finally located them. It took them over eight months to deliver the rest, and even then, it was incomplete. After I had finished paying for everything, they now claim they aren't responsible and can't do anything. I decided to take the best course of action, went to court, and sued them for breach of contract.

The employees at the downtown Rant-A-Crnter they're so compassionate, caring kind and most of all focus on meeting their customers where where they are. What the focus on sales as any business would be the employees within this store go over and beyond to ensure their customers leave with what they came for and a smile on their face. When I walked in, I felt like family when I walked out.I knew I was family. Take a moment, go in and talk to the team. You will not regret it! The furniture they offer, it's beautiful and well maintained. The showroom is laid out where you don't feel overwhelmed and you and then you're able to try out everything before you buy it. Thank you to all employees that worked so hard to make it so comfortable within.Side your store. Keep up the good work team, you rock!!
