Worst of the worst like seriously. Absolutely disgusting businesses. Get constantly harassed and talked to like trash by management. Got a washer and the washer stopped working while making payments. I called they said it'll be fixed. I waited 5 days and still nothing so I call back. They tell me I never called and they never set up an appointment for it to be fixed even though I did. Then was told it's my responsibility to get it fixed. Never has been before. So they gave me the number to whirlpool and I had to set up an appt. This was on December 9th. They said they can't fix the washer until jan 5th!! Almost a month with no washer! I call and ask them if I can get a replacement for the time being or stop payment at least until it's fixed and was told they don't do either. I was expected to pay for a washer for a month and get no use from it and also have to pay extra out to go to a laundry mat? I won't be paying and they can come pick it up. They also told me it's my responsibility to bring the machine back in my little 4 door car even though they brought it here. Absolutely despicable location.

Horrible staff to deal with. Management needs better customer service trainings.. I have not personally sign up with them but I know some families that have and the level of harassment rudeness and disrespectful to people is insane. I actually heard them on the phone with a family and it was borderline scary interactions threats..this mom asked him to come and get their stuff and they were asking a ridiculous fee that she had to pay for them to come get their stuff. Very disappointing to hear a person in management position talk the way he did. Do not sign up with this company unless you want an aggressive person harassing you. He said I'm allowed to call 2 times a day ..we counted the calls in a day it was at least 10!! They lie. Their furniture is not quality furniture too. Please consider giving your business elsewhere. I tried zero stars and would not let me post. No stars in rating..

Absolutely terrible, don’t recommend unless you like being harassed. I never leave reviews but I feel like it’s necessary. The company is very passive aggressive and call more than a bitter baby mama. They will call u 50 times the day it’s due and then hassle u about what time you are paying it like the exact time of the day matters. And on top of that they changed the payment date I originally put because they assumed I got payed on Fridays when on the paperwork it said otherwise. Very unprofessional people working here and needs better management. Makes me not even want the damn couch no more.
