Tammy
Buddy's Home Furnishings

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great experience all around! I worked with Tony before at the 6th Ave location and had the opportunity to work with him again at the Lakewood store — and just like last time, everything was smooth, fast, and stress-free. He’s always nice, professional, and easy to work with. I honestly prefer Buddy’s over other places because of the high-quality furniture and the great customer service. Delivery was handled by Russell and Caleb, and they were amazing. They arrived right on time, introduced themselves, were very polite, and got everything into my apartment with no issues — even with my small space. I felt bad that I couldn’t tip them, so I’m leaving this great review instead. They were awesome and got the job done perfectly! Highly recommend Buddy’s and this whole team. 💯

Staff were super friendly, super accommodating and also super busy. The very nice gentleman that helped me was bouncing between phone call after phone call, all while working on my paperwork and tracking down a mattress. Solid folks that will do everything they can for you.

Buddy's Home Furnishings

Best customer service I've ever had.I literally walked in they help me get a bed a TV Stand and a nice couch. I got everything in my apartment under 24 hours they went over and beyond to make sure I got everything I needed for my new apartment. I am absolutely in love with my new apartment. And they made sure I didn't have to sleep on the floor I would give them 10 stars if I could. I recommend anybody to come to Lakewood.
