We went to City Furniture last week looking for an entertainment unit and instead fell in love with a sofa/love seat combo. However, we didn't love the two colors on display. We asked if other colors were available and were told no. We asked about the delivery options and were told that free delivery was to the garage or overhang to protect from weather and that delivery and setup inside the house was an additional 10% of the purchase price. Also, they wouldn't haul away the old furniture.
Then after reading about Kent Furniture in Bellevue here on TOTV, we decided to check them out. We asked if they carried the same sofa, etc as City and they did. The price tag showed almost twice as much as City but then the sales person said they price match, free delivery and setup and they will remove the old furniture. Then he brought out the fabric samples with at least 50 different colors and materials to choose from. He told us we could bring the samples home if we want.
All in all, shopping at Kent turned into a great experience. No pressure, we were able to take our time, we found exactly what we wanted and we felt like we got a good deal. And the furniture we selected is made in the USA.
