What customers are saying

Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in Gainesville.

Always a great place to go! Very friendly and make everything easy.

AJ Criswell
Rent-A-Center

Highly recommend using, if needed! The guys always do a an amazing job and we’ve never had any issues! Thank you guys!

Lauren Almaraz
Rent-A-Center

So far so good easy to get approved with out a big hassle like some places. Products are marked up vs their flat out fee at other store but if your credit isn’t the best and you don’t just have 1000 to drop on a decent laptop all at once this is a good place to go. Plus the staff in the Gainesville store seem to be nice and the website is quite easy to use.

Rent-A-Center

I have been a customer with this location for approximately 6 years now and was a customer with other locations. I apologize other folks have had bad experiences with Aaron's. However I have had an awesome experience with these great folks and have been late a few times but they have always been understanding and assisted in any way they could. When they couldn't help I understood and just did my best to be accommodating and accountable for my part I play. Keep up the good work guys I will continue to shop with you all for as long as I can continue to spend money😉🤣🤣🤣
