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.

I got my TV from Rent-A-Center and the whole process was super easy, friendly staff and fast delivery. Once I set it up with my Firestick, I added TV4ONE and now I have access to all the sports, movies, and international channels I love in 4K with zero buffering. Great service and the perfect streaming combo!

The team is always great at helping with any issues, Michelle is a god send and goes above and beyond. She’s who I ask for and she always finds me the best deal and item for any situation. The delivery guys are very professional and friendly- they get the job done without damaging anything.

Michelle has been giving me the work around for weeks. I call and it's "we will work on that for you, sweety" and then never does. Learn my name. Actually help so I don't have to call so many times begging for help.
