My husband ordered a tv and entertainment center, it was delivered fine. Professional delivery men. I was reading in the paperwork that it could have or not have a fireplace. I called the day of the delivery and asked to have the fireplace. Brandon told me he was going to order it from Amazon. We'll I called to check on it and spoke with Sara who assured me Brandon would be giving me a call back. Heard nothing, I waited a few days and called back. Sara told me the same thing. It is now going on 4 weeks with no fireplace and no return call from Brandon. Sad how poorly thief communication is.

My bed has a crack and the delivery pointed it out and said another would be delivered, but then when i went to the store to ask about it no one knew anything. I was told I’d be called when another headboard came in and still nothing so I gave up.

The Rent-A-Center in Mechanicville is top notch!! We went in on a Saturday afternoon and the manager Brandon was awesome. He was the only one in the store and still took his time with us and made sure we were taken care of. He set delivery for a day that was convenient to us and made sure we left the store happy. If you ever need a Rent-A-Center this store should be your go to.
