If I could give 0 stars I hope it helps you in the future do not do business with this company as they will harass you on the holidays. And daily for money as small as 100$ after being spoke to like I was not a customer but a child and having a couch delivered then thrown in the road then put back together oppose there drill ran out of power so I had to provide a screw driver.

Trash. They broke my screen bringing my roommates furniture set. I let it go and fixed it. He got behind and they come to collect it knocking like the police and literally just knocking destroyed the screen worse than the time they brought the furniture in. Like they did it on purpose. I don't owe you money. You owe me now. You're not the police. If you knock like them most people aren't going to rush to answer. If you don't respect people's property who aren't involved then you need to find a different line of work. This is unacceptable.

WORST EXPERIENCE !!!! I never have even been in the place nor gotten furniture from them. I have NO BUSINESS with them. The manger literally kicked my door in with my 3 year old and myself in there. They came looking for a person and furniture for someone who does NOT and has never resides at my address. They have NO lease, NO mail NO anything connecting them to my house ! Yet I keep getting harassed . Two GIANT men at that kicking my door in I didn’t know what to expect. Now I feel the need to go get a firearm cause kicking my door in should not be okay. Especially coming from the MANAGER Imari green.
