What Customers Are Saying

Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in St. Petersburg.

Just have to say WOW. This was the most streamlined, fast, and awesome experience ever. From the time I parked until the time I was walking out of the building with a laptop that I really liked was maybe 10 to 15 minutes and at an amazingly low price that none of the competitors can match. Thanks for making this such a happy experience, Happy's!

I want to give a big shout out to Will at Happy’s Home Center (St. Pete). Every time I’ve been in, he’s been helpful, polite, and genuinely kind. You can tell he actually cares about helping customers, not just rushing through. What really stands out is that Will doesn’t just point in a direction — he takes the time to walk with you, look for what you need, explain the options, and make sure you leave confident about your purchase. That’s rare these days. He’s knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to go the extra mile. Customer service like that is the reason I choose to keep coming back here instead of other stores. If you shop here, ask for Will — you’ll be taken care of. 👍 Highly recommended.

Everyone was very nice and very polite even though I was less than friendly due to the run around I got regarding repairing my fridge (not directed towards them at all). I would highly recommend this business. They really helped me out when I needed help!!
