What customers are saying
Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in Waynesville.
Daniel and manager made entire purchase very smooth, easy and timely. My sister told me of purchases made and so I chose to see what inventory they had in refrigerators. Will definitely think of them if any other purchases are needed.

Elizabeth was super helpful, courteous, friendly, great attitude, and amazing communication skills. The prices are absolutely AMAZING. I’m paying half of what I would have paid at any other place. As a first time customer. I’m already a happy customer. ETA: I spoke with her this past Thursday. I see that it’s Sunday and they’re closed on sundays. I just wanted to clear that up.

The team at American Rentals has consistently provided excellent customer service and were always helpful and friendly throughout the rental process. They readily helped me select the furniture that best suited my needs. I've consistently had a positive experience with American Rentals and would definitely recommend them.

Daniel and manager made entire purchase very smooth, easy and timely. My sister told me of purchases made and so I chose to see what inventory they had in refrigerators. Will definitely think of them if any other purchases are needed. Made a refrigerator purchase and delivery, setup, haul away made my life so much easier. Friendly, courteous and left better than found. Thx American Rental for making my life so much better. Ordered refrigerator from another company and two delivery delayed emails later I cancelled and got refrigerator from American Rental in four days.

I stopped in today just before closing time to get an idea of how I might furnish my recent move. I didn't make any purchases, but when I left the store, I noticed that I had a flat tire. Mike helped me inflate my tire after he was off the clock and refused to take any kind of compensation for his help. Just because of him, I will be back soon to do business.
