Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in Pekin.
Awesome employees! Very careful and extremely extremely helpful on moving your furniture in the right place. A piece of furniture that we purchased didn't apply to our needs so we reached to arona and they got us the right product for our needs and delivered the product picking up the return product quickly with no charge. The delivery employees Maurice and his partner were awesome. Thanks arona! Just also purchased a dryer and they took care of my needs. Christian did an awesome job installing it!
