This location provides AMAZING customer service!! They truly go above and beyond for their customers. The manager, the sweet lady who is usually at the counter when you walk in and the delivery men all are great!! I've purchased many items from them over the past few years and recommend them to everyone I know. There have even been times I have needed a little extra time to make a payment (because life happens) and they have always been understanding and helpful.They just make life easier when it comes to making large purchases!!
