What customers are saying

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

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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. 💯
