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.

I have bought two sets of washer and dryers , a mattress set a double door stainless fridge , two large tvs , and a curved tv and have always been treated great . Rick is the absolute best . We have been customers for a many years and have bought many things from him and he has always done right by us. Couldn’t ask for a better place to get the things you need when you can’t go out and buy them straight out .

Completely angry can’t believe I almost bought a tv for 1k from here well not anymore bc I was supposed to pick up a pc today and when I called to ask them if they still had it after I asked if I need to fill something out to hold it untill tomorrow on the 5 dollar deal day and he assured me it would be there today. Edit** and then he called back to ask if he could help out another way and I said no not sense I was lied to and he said well good to be honest we don’t want to work with someone with that kind of attitude. And funny thing is I was never rude or had an attitude untill the item I was supposed to pick up was gone.

Friendly service, help was right there, I was contacted immediately to make sure I was the one who made the purchase and no one scammed me or tried using my identity. It was easy, fast service thru the app, I made arrangements to pick up the game system the following Monday morning during business hrs because it was Saturday when I placed the order and they were closed in store near me.
