What customers are saying

Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in Mason City.

My wife and I stop in one day just to check things out and see what it was all about. We were greeted with respect from Brian and Jessica. They walked us around showing what they had to offer. We finally decided on couch sectional. Delivered the next week. Love how respectful they were with delivery and set up. Six months later down the road we stopped back in and decided to see if there was different couch because we were not liking the way the one couch looked in our living room. Brian had something there that was perfect so we ended up exchanging/trading for different one. Also got a new tv in the process. Now recently we stop needing a new washer/dryer. Brian said we just got the new GE washer/dryer combo in and that is something we wanted to try to save room. They delivered the next week Brian came with to deliver it and make sure it was delivered safe (also they are not light). Fast forward I will continue to do business with them paired to other big store places that only deal in certain things. Always love the respect they give us and not trying to force us into something we don’t want or not sure on. They will also work with you to find what you want. If they don’t have it they will find it and order it for you!

Ask about early purchase options

Iowa law

What Iowa law gives you before you sign

Iowa regulates rent-to-own under Iowa 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.

Iowa Rental-Purchase Agreement Act Iowa Code §§ 537.3601 to 537.3624
Disclosure requirements Must disclose total number and amount of payments, total cost, cash price, condition of the property, early purchase option, and any additio...
Payment cap protections Total cost of the rental-purchase agreement may not exceed 2.0 times the cash price of the property (200% cap).
