I had one of the worst customer service experiences dealing with Gabriel. I was told my delivery would be completed, but instead I was asked to provide my driver’s license and credit card information with no professionalism or follow-through. This situation made me extremely uncomfortable and raised serious concerns about personal information security and trustworthiness. I strongly recommend being very cautious and avoiding doing business unless it is directly person-to-person and fully verified. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this store to anyone. Extremely disappointing and unprofessional.

STAY AWAY!!!BAD ATTITUDES AND OVERCHARGES!!!! GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! Bad customer service, they charge your account without permission, give you attitude when you ask. Talk to you like you are stupid. After making a one time payment with a card, they place an automatic payment. I asked please remove the account no less than 5 TIMES to different personal multiple times, they’re all assuring it has been removed and they are still charging the card, I have reported them but DO YOURSELF A FAVOR,GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! It’s not worth it! BAD MANAGEMENT!!!

So, I swung by Rent-A-Center on the hunt for a comfy beige sofa that wouldn't break the bank. Met the manager Johnny who was super welcoming and seriously knew his stuff. He hooked me up with the perfect set for my living room, and now it feels like home sweet home. If you're in the market for furniture that's both cozy and budget-friendly, I totally recommend checking out Rent-A-Center!
