What customers are saying

Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in Portage.

This place is amazing! The gentleman that work there are very nice and have great customer service! They help out when you have questions and answer every single one. My parents and I have gone to them for years and never had an issue. The payments for items they have range from week payments to month payments. The gentleman at Premier are the best, I stand by their business and will always go to them if I want to rent or buy something!

I’ve bought a few things over the years from Premier. The fellas in here are always extremely helpful and Ted remembers me by name. There are very few places to can walk into these days where an employee even looks you in the eyes when they speak to you. Friendly service is always what you’ll find at Premier. Most often, they have great deals for same as cash to help limit the overall cost of a rent to own purchase and the weekly payments are always extremely manageable. I’ll use this place over and over again any time I need to make a big purchase!

I just want to add another review here almost a year in with this place and I have to definitely say once again I would never recommend anyone to go anywhere but here for their items!!!! Ted is absolutely amazing. He definitely shows how much of a great person he is! But I’m going to show my couch in this photo I had forgot to put it on my last review so all together the tv, stand, sound bar, and couch I had got from them and forever greatful for it!!!

Premier is one of my favorite places. My family has been coming there for a very long time. From my father my mother sister brother uncle cousins and my family. Ted, Charles and the whole crew are some of the best people I've ever met in my soon to be 41 years of life. Top notch service. Have helped me and my family so much over the past couple years especially they have no clue at least I don't think anyway on how much me and my wife truly appreciate and respect premier for everything. Again Ted and Charles and the whole crew thank you again. You'll always have a special place with us. Thank you 🙏🙏

We have been going through them for years. They are always awesome with their customer service. Everyone that works there is great. Ted and Charles are the people that have been dealing with the longest. They are wonderful, reliable, awesome, caring, willing to work with you, and all the way around just great people!!! I couldn’t recommend a better place to get your stuff from or better people to have working there!

Premier

Edit : I truly had to update. Ben is great. Aaron is cool and the team literally went out of their way to make sure I had what I asked for and they went above and beyond. They are understanding and absolutely willing to help. I would give 10 stars if I could. Doug is wonderful. Helped with every question I had and made sure I was satisfied with my order. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Recent pay stub, bank statement, or benefits letter

Compare stores side by side

Use the comparison table above to compare stores side by side, rated by customers, with products and contact info in one view.

Ask about early purchase options

Every rent-to-own agreement should include an early purchase option (EPO). Ask the store how much you can save by buying the item outright before the full lease term ends. The earlier you buy, the more you save.

Check store hours before you go

Hours can vary by location and may change on holidays. Call ahead or check the store listings above to confirm the store is open before making the trip. Many stores close earlier on weekends.

Read reviews from other customers

Customer reviews can reveal important details about service quality, delivery experience, and staff helpfulness. Check ratings on each store listing and click through for detailed reviews.

Estimate your total cost

Use the VRTO calculator to estimate your total rent-to-own cost before you visit. Knowing the full cost upfront helps you compare options and budget effectively.

Know your rights

Rent-to-own is generally structured as a lease with an option to own. Return rights and obligations vary by agreement and state. Indiana has consumer protection laws governing RTO transactions. Ask the store for a copy of your agreement before signing.

Indiana law

What Indiana law gives you before you sign

Indiana regulates rent-to-own under Indiana Rental-Purchase Agreement Act, and the rules are the same at every store in the state. Before you sign, the store has to put the cash price, the total cost to own the item, and the number of payments in front of you, so the real number is never buried in the fine print. Rent-to-own is a lease and not a loan, so there is no interest rate, and returning the item does not go on your credit.

This is a plain summary, not legal advice. Read your own agreement and confirm the terms with the store.

Indiana Rental-Purchase Agreement Act Ind. Code §§ 24-7-1-1 to 24-7-9-3
Disclosure requirements Must disclose total number and amount of payments, total cost, cash price, a statement that the consumer does not acquire ownership until al...
