I bought two leather recliners and a leather powered console love seat from Kane's in 2011. Within three years the leather was peeling, they sell bonded leather. I should of known a powered love seat for $1,000 was too good, pay at least $1400 for real leather. For real leather go to Blocker's Furniture directly behind Kane's. Past Kane's and just before Krystal Hamburgers turn right into the parking lot and Blocker's is in the back of the shopping.

Avoid City Furniture unless you like the stuff delivered might resemble the stuff you saw in the store. Just go up to the 'search' button at the top of this page and type in their name if you want proof. You can search any subject, it's a great wealth of info right here on this site.

For a budget, I found Badcock Furniture. The one in Wildwood is better than the one in Fruitland Park. It's on 301 in the shopping center that has Ace Hardware and the post office. Each store is individually owned franchise. I picked a love seat and two matching recliners brand new all for $1600. They don't use bonded leather, but a polyester material that looks like leather, not vinyl or plastic. We bought this cream colored set shown below and after a year it still looks new.
