Inside Rent-A-Center

What you can rent here

Rent-A-Center is a national rent-to-own chain with 1,948 stores across all 50 states, reaching communities from Lawrence, Massachusetts and Kissimmee, Florida to Harlingen, Texas and Booneville, Mississippi. Launched in 1973 in Wichita, Kansas, it was the first national chain to scale the rent-to-own model, building standardized showrooms stocked with new, name-brand merchandise. Stores carry furniture, appliances, electronics, computers, mattresses, gaming, and smartphones on flexible weekly or monthly lease agreements, and like most rent-to-own stores they typically do not require a traditional credit check. Rent-A-Center holds a 4-star Google rating across more than 152,000 reviews. Compare Rent-A-Center on VRTO alongside other rent-to-own stores near you, with hours, ratings, and what each carries.

This place is not good, they manager Kelly P. Think he can talk to anyone however he wants, came to my house to be disrespectful talking down to me, crazy part he talk to everybody like that treating you like trash, I even decided to return the item I got to don’t have to deal with him anymore, I never missed a payment even when I told him I got injured at work and usually I always pay on time but let him know I was going to take a few days to pay the next one and he got mad and started putting pressure to pay yes or yes, place with him is going down.

Initially everything was OK. My order came on time. The store manager has been very nice and professional. However, I've called several times about my furniture being delivered broken. Aside from that, I've notice bed bugs on the sofa. I reported it to the store a d they were prompt in getting it to the insurance company. The insurance has not properly followed up etc. I literally found 1 last night and I'm sad because I liked this set. In hoping things will get better ASAP.

The lady that greeted me was very nice and helpful, and the manager that completed my order was too. I was finished and out the door in a very timely manner, satisfied with everything. I will continue to tell people about the Covington location. Very nice people.
