Cody was great but the guy who typed up everything was lost I had just spoke to him like 1 hour before we got there and said we get the first week for one dollar right. So we get there and he tries to charge us like 47 dollars omg I just spoke about this but I gave a 5 star review because of the Manger and the Manger only

Dakota and Matthew did an amazing job setting up our bedroom set. Very cooperative and nice people. Would definitely recommend them for any setups I need or someone else would need in the future.

Cody I'd absolutely wonderful. My husband and I have been in several times to work specifically with him. There was a slight mix up and miscommunication with moving us, but Cody didn't hesitate to get us taken care of. I highly recommend. Ask for Cody!!

I got a couch from them 4 days ago and I found two bed bugs ! I’ve never had any issues with bugs ever. Everything I have is in plastic. Mind you the couch was used and I didn’t know until they brought it to me. And it was very used not worth 3000 or 180 a month I was paying… called them told them their couch was on my back patio they told me they had to inspect my apartment. That’s fine. They came got the couch NEVER inspected it. Then told me that my couch was on the floor for three months. So people have for sure sat on it and got a good 3 months use to it. Then told me they steam cleaned it that it didn’t have anything. I don’t care they had bugs. What just steam cleaned the cushions. Not the wood inside or anything. So I don’t recommend this place at alllll. Then they picked the couch up and reposted they had it in stock and went down on the price IT HAS BEDBUGS they’re nasty !
