Inside Rent-A-Center

What you can rent here

Rent-A-Center is a national rent-to-own chain with 1,948 stores across all 50 states, reaching communities from Lawrence, Massachusetts and Kissimmee, Florida to Harlingen, Texas and Booneville, Mississippi. Launched in 1973 in Wichita, Kansas, it was the first national chain to scale the rent-to-own model, building standardized showrooms stocked with new, name-brand merchandise. 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.

This was a horrible experience. Filthy, filthy store. The pwrson at the front had lost the war for cleanliness. I wouldnt rent papertowels from these people or this store. The owner should be ashamed.

My mom had a couch delivered today and as I was getting ready to make my bed I saw an adult roach🪳 crawl out of it trying to go behind my bed it had an egg hanging from it so I imagine it was trying to go behind there and lay eggs😡 then I found a big nasty used bandaid in the couch and dog hairs like this is how roaches spread and nobody has time for that I get mistakes happen but this clearly says the couch wasn't checked or cleaned after the last person had it.. we had to sit the couch out on the back porch because we were afraid more where gonna come out and they don't open again until Monday so it'll be on the back porch until Monday

Recently went back for an AC because literally could not find a portable one ANYWHERE! They were able to help same day and gave me a 'previously owned' one. I wound up going back during the carnival days for a new mac. I'm wondering on the price though (6 month same as cash) because the listed price for this laptop for a competitor is 799. But RAC has it on my contract as $1500. So I have to reach out about that because I don't want to pay double for a laptop. But I will update my review after I touch base.

Rent Center is awesome! The staff are always there whenever I need them and never turn me down when I am in a bind. Simply the best customer experience yet. Which is why I have been doing business with them for over 10 years.
