Jerome instantly greeted me and my husband with a smile and some fun stories about the shop and his life. We had a wonderful time exploring. There are so many unique pieces, and the layout (upstairs, downstairs, nooks and crannies, all full of furniture and art) does make it feel like a treasure hunt. We ended up showing Jerome some photos of our new rental apartment, and he helped us choose between our two favorite dining room tables. There were a range of prices but definitely more options toward the higher end of our budget. Jerome set up a delivery (for an extra fee) for a couple days from our visit. If you want a one-of-a-kind experience with unique furniture and a friendly guide, this is your place. read more

The store offers a wide selection of furniture - you'll likely find what you need at a decent value. Things are shipped from all over the world and country of provenance may vary. The owners are nice during the buying process - if you're looking to use your own transportation they might not have the piece you want wrapped up and you end up taking one off the floor. The after sale process could be a little bit better and if they facilitated folks that use their own transportation they could have more returning customers in my opinion. All in all, worth checking out, you might find something you really like at a great price - just be prepared to take process into your own hands once you're all paid up. read more

After a couple disappointing experiences trying to furniture shop at Ikea and West Elm, we were inspired to think "outside of the box". Enter, furniture outlet stores. If you want furniture that is higher quality than Ikea and don't want to wait 2-6 months for delivery, than look no further. 9th street designer clearance carries a LOT of furniture, like this place is really huge. Even if you don't buy anything, you'll have some fun browsing the many unique pieces. I gotta admit, I was skeptical coming in because my tastes are very specific. I wasn't sure they would carry any items that I'd be interested in aka mid century modern/scandanavian furniture in neutral colors. But alas, they had some! We were able to walk away with a nice couch and coffee table, delivered that same night! Mike was very helpful in explaining some of the furniture and the process of buying. Pro tip: There is a lot of street parking right out front but it is metered. But if you come on sundays or any day after 6pm, it is free. Also, this store does not take credit card or do any payment plans. You have to pay with cash, check, or wire transfer. read more

Another great couch! I purchased my first couch from 9th Street Designer Clearance 10 years ago, and it's still awesome. I was recently in the market to purchase another couch and 9th Street was perfect. Bought a sexy cream/beige super long leather couch. It's comfortable and looks great. I absolutely love Jerome, I think my husband and I spent 45 minutes just chatting with him while sitting on our new couch. read more

Great experience shopping here. Found 2 dining chairs, blue velvet. Best part was I took them home same day! You can find a lot of gems here. read more

A lot of furniture but not what we were looking for. Prices are very high too. Many rooms of furniture that appear to be one of a kind, if that is something you like. A few rooms had heaps of supplies, no furniture, and was a complete mess, which gave me the creeps. I couldn't wait to get out of there. read more

Sofas are not designer sofas. They are made by a company called "Cocheen furniture ltd". I found my same couch on Alibaba for $650. Website of the company is cocheen.com. Facebook is here: https://www.facebook.com/cocheenfurniture/ On Facebook you can find the entire collection that is in the showroom. I found out because the sticker from the manufacturer was still attached to the sofa. I knew that this was not a 4k sofa (despite what Mike the sales person told me), but I was hoping not to be looking at an Alibaba importer. === Update Before they say this is not true. Here is the bill of Lading from them to 9th street design clearance. https://panjiva.com/Dongguan-Cocheen-Furniture-Co-Ltd/44291603 read more

Earlier this year, I bought my first sofa in many years at the 9th Street Designer Clearance. And I am very pleased. The sofa is large (I can take a nap on it) and comfortable. Although it can get a little lumpy looking, the lumps can be easily smoothed out. I was unsure if I should buy the sofa "as is", but "all's well that end's well." And although I don't know if the $900 price constituted "clearance" cost, I am very pleased with my overall experience, including working with Jerome in the sale. I was also very pleased with the delivery man, Francisco, who was friendly and helpful, including in putting sliders on the sofa (for easy movement on my hardwood floor) and moving my large table into my bedroom. read more

I came across this place quite by accident while trying to find furniture for my condo in San Francisco. Turns out they have this incredible warehouse full of furniture that was custom-made but never delivered for one reason or another. Each piece is individual and well-made. The owners are awesome to work with. Extremely, accommodating and helpful. I have referred many of my friends to this place. The prices are extremely reasonable for custom furniture. read more

9th Street Designer Clearance - Great custom couch. - Furniture Stores Near Me - San Francisco, California

I purchased two pieces of furniture July 1st, 2019. The shopping experience was fine. Delivery was good. The chair with ottoman, great. My Tan Loveseat is pulling apart at the seams. The seat cushions have buttons and all around these buttons, the seams are failing. It is such a disappointment. I sent an email through their website regarding my plight and received no response. I am very dissatisfied with this product. I paid $1200 for a new couch, one that I was planning to use for years into the future after hearing from the salesperson about the excellent quality of the furniture at the 9th Street Designer Clearance store. We are two adults, no children, no pets, no abuse of the loveseat, so why is their supposedly high quality furniture falling apart 6 months later. Be careful what you get and check the fabric quality. I would be happy to give a better review if the product was a better quality. I could have gotten 6 decent Craigslist couches for the amount I paid at this store for one defective "designer" loveseat. read more

9th Street Designer Clearance - You can clearly see the seam failing here on this seat cushion. Very disappointing. - Furniture Stores Near Me - San Francisco, California

Jerome is the best. Tons of great finds! Unusual and unique pieces. It is for people looking for something different at a good price.

Ignore their "guaranteed delivery time." I took off work to be there during the 2 hour window, coordinated with the Apt building, and several other people. No show, No simple call telling me that they would be way late. So I had to cancelled the order. Next, after I wrote a review of my experience here, Michael text messaged me and wrote "Please remove your yelp review or I assure you I will leave one for you." Michael you and your business practices are completely unacceptable. read more

No Refund for Invoiced Overcharge-Buyer Beware Although 9th Street Designer Clearance offers good prices overall, you should know that it's owners, Jerome and his superlative salesman and younger (but neither is young, i.e., inexperienced, by any measure) copartner, has a stubborn even recalcitrant, attitude toward customers wanting them to act responsibly and refund invoiced overcharges. Note, they have not responded my repeated requests that 9th Street refund their overcharge they created by their mispricing the chairs they sold on their invoice. Since purchasing two expensive chairs from 9th Street around two years, I've sent emails to the great salesperson partner with pictures of one of the chairs with tag still attached, made telephone calls and talked with Jerome, the older of this old partner business, who indicated that he'd resolve the overcharge issue. Although there was not a significant difference in the invoiced and inaccurate price, given the ~$4000 cost for the two chairs, I indicated that I wanted a refund of the overcharge. After an extended period of time, we received a check from an entity not named 9th Street Designer Clearance. I requested that they send a replacement check. I talked with Jerome, one of the owners, who said he'd look into it but we did not receive a check for the overcharge. They to this day have not refunded their overcharge. I subsequently requested on multiple occasions that they refund their overcharge. 9th Street Designer Clearance personnel said everything and anything but have not reissued their refund of their overcharge. Responsible businesses, particularly those dealing with higher priced items, should not act this way. When shopping for furniture, particularly more expensive items, consider if you can work with the seller. 9th Street Designer Clearance has demonstrated quite clearly that they have failed to act responsibly in refunding their invoiced overcharge. BUYER BEWARE! read more

I'm searching for the impossible! 5ft x 5ft corner really cool looking sectional. The struggle is real! I decided to use Yelp to go on my SF shopping journey. I found this store near Folsom and wanted to check it. The owner is really friendly and explained his items came directly from the manufacturer. The furniture was either never picked up or the customer changed their mind. What you see is what you get. Floor models only. What really attracted me to this store is the same day delivery! I hate waiting 6-8 weeks for a great piece of furniture. It's like buying an ice cream cone and not being able to eat it! What I found really unique in this store is small gas heating fixtures. Some mounted on the wall and others sat on coffee tables. Great conversation piece and produced some heat to keep you warm. I really like his furniture but the prices were a little high for me. There's no room for negotiation. I always like a deal or at least the perception that I'm receiving one! Onward I go to the next furniture store. I still recommend stopping by! read more

At first, this place seemed like a goldmine. Long story short: 3 weeks after having made a deposit in cash, we finally got our furniture! But it really wasn't worth the hassle. We did some comparison shopping and the prices are low, in some cases 10x cheaper than the design shops just a block away. However, with the long delay, we became a bit concerned. We called to ask where our stuff was and they played dumb. So we showed up in person and they acted like we hadn't listened to what they said about when it would be arriving from the mysterious "warehouse". Supposedly our stuff was there all along, but they wouldn't send a truck to get it, and refused to let us go pick it up ourselves. When I indicated that this is not what we were promised, they offered to loan us some chairs for a week until ours arrived. WTF?? I want the stuff I picked out, and you people SUCK. And, oh btw, after I posted this review, they threatened to sue us over it. But hey, just a few hours after I posted this review, they called and said our stuff had finally arrived. Not a coincidence: they offered us $10 to take the review down. We refused. Now they're calling and harassing us again. All thanks to Yelp, apparently. We won't be going there again. read more

What the California hippie is happening to me?!?! The unthinkable has happened, I bought a dining room set that I actually plan to eat at! So having been a fan of the espresso furniture trend for years, the new me is taking a u-turn and so into reclaimed wood furniture now. Yelp of course delivered on this search and this is how I found this fantabulous store! Street parking is a-plenty, and it's also right across from the plaza that houses Trader Joes, Nordstrom Rack etc. In case you're wondering, I parallel parked like a boss today. Walking upstairs I was immediately taken with the dining set at the entrance and felt like I had a really good shot of finding a unique set here. I was immediately greeted by Jerome who listened to what I was looking for, and offered his design opinions. I knew right away which table I wanted, but turned into the goldilocks of chairs. He was super patient & did his best to help me stay within budget. I ended up with the exact set I wanted and they delivered the same day for a reasonable fee! Checking out with Michael was also fun, I really liked that he only wanted a small deposit ($20) and said to pay via check upon delivery. He wanted me to see it in my house and be fully in love with it before buying. Luckily no buyers remorse on my end! The design room is chock full of unique pieces, and really pieces for every style. I'll be back for sure! They also have sale items at super low prices so I'll be back for sure. Also, shoutout to Manuel and his team for delivering same day, it's much appreciated. They were quick, super professional and personable! read more

If I don't have an incentive to decorate my living space I won't; plus I'm a poor graduate student. Thus when this place popped up as a Yelp Deal I thought, "Sweet, 200 dollars worth of furniture for just $100?" and jumped on it. I was able to cash in on my coupon a couple of months ago when I was in the city. I will use my 5+ years of Yelp cred to stress: this place is legit. I say so upfront because, honestly, in the days leading up to my visit to the store I started garnering some serious skepticism. Their website had virtually no helpful information about the inventory of the store, and a closer look at the many 5-star reviews revealed some super vague narratives from dubious unprolific writers. I had doubts about my investment. That said, once I stepped into the showroom, my worries were quelled when I met the down-to-earth manager, Michael. Like others have said, he's not pushy, just a real person willing to assist his customers in getting the best deal possible. In terms of inventory, there are pieces for every room in your house here. Stylistically the selection is a bit random (some "Asian"-inspired furniture, "retro" stuff, and minimalist pieces to name a few), but because of that there's likely something for everybody. Whether or not this will be within your price range depends, though the store claims to beat its competitors hands down for similar merchandise. Apparently there is a type of well-known ergonomic office chair sold here for what I want to say is like $200 less than anywhere else. Can't remember the name right now, but that's what they were saying. Because of my budget I wasn't able to walk out with the $600 comfy armchair I coveted, but with Michael's help I was able to purchase one (setless) leather chair meant for a dining room set for $100, and a minimalist silver office lamp for the last $100. Now my bedroom is super conducive to studying! Definitely go to Michael directly if you have a Yelp Deal--he'll hook you up. And even if you don't have the coupon, give him your business simply because he works super hard ("every day of my life!" in his own words). read more

Shopping at 9th Street Designer Clearance was an experience like no other! My mom and I decided to redecorate our great room and we felt super lost as which pieces to purchase and put together, and not only did Michael provide such beautiful and quality furniture pieces but also his expertise and advice on what looked best together. We went to many furniture stores prior to coming here, and nothing came close or felt right in comparison to this place! Amazing and unique, contemporary and quality pieces at a great cost! We will be coming back for more! Thank you x100, Michael! read more

Was welcomed by Michael who gave us plenty of space to browse around the store. One of a kind , unique pieces - not your average mass produced items The delivery was easy peasy and the crew was who put our beautiful yellow leather swivel chairs were prompt and very friendly Love this place will be back again read more

For those people who complained about the shipping, we ordered the leather love seat at around noon, and it was in our living room by 5:30. The people they use for shipping are efficient, careful, wrapped the furniture safely, and put it just where we wanted it. read more

If they make a mistake during delivery, YOU can expect to pay for it! My wife and I have been looking for new couches and a chair for our living room for awhile now. We found this place online and decided to check it out so we could view the furniture in person before making a purchase, they also advertised "same-day-delivery" which is what we wanted. The shopping experience was not an issue, the salesman or owner Michael assisted us in our purchase of a new couch and chair which we spent $3300 on both. While we're finalizing the sale Micheal says he can't do same day delivery all of a sudden...and my wife and I didn't have plans the following day so we agreed that the following day delivery would be okay (we didn't have a choice anyway). So we we're told it will be delivered the following day between 5pm-7pm. So we wait all day and 5pm rolls around...nothing, 6pm rolls around...no delivery, 7pm hits and the delivery is finally here. The guys bring in part of our delivery and says that Michael (the salesman) forgot to put the base of our $1200 chair with the rest of the delivery! It's after 7pm at this point and the store is closed and I can't talk to Michael or anyone else about the issue, so I left a voicemail about my issue. Then I tell the delivery driver to send the chair back because I have no use for a chair with no base. I paid the delivery driver $170 in full for the delivery and also gave him a check for the full cost of the couch and chair totaling $3300 - even though I sent the chair back because of Michael's mistake - I still paid everything in full (assuming Michael would fix this issue the following day). The following day I wait all day until around 3pm I call Michael because he hasn't called me back about my missing chair. I talk to him and he said another employee must have listened to the message and not told him about my voicemail (how does a business operate with no communication between employees?) and that's why he didn't call me back. I then told Michael about the issue and ask him if I could switch the color of the chair I bought because my wife and I changed our minds overnight on the color (and since we sent the incomplete chair back any way it should be no issue to get the same exact chair - same price - just a different color delivered back to our house. Nope! Michael then goes on to tell me that I can switch the color of the chair (because why the hell wouldn't I be able to if I sent it back because he sent it incomplete to begin with) but I will have to pay $180 for the delivery! He would have had to send a delivery truck back to my house anyway to deliver the WHOLE $1200 chair I originally purchased anyway - but now he's telling me I need to pay almost another $200 for his mistake! Good customer service would have been taking care of the cost of delivery. I paid $170 for the first delivery and did not get my complete order. The right thing to do is waive the cost of delivery, but he's asking me to pay for it? I told him I would just go pick it up myself and save $200. It was BS. Same-day-delivery turned into pick it up yourself on the third day yourself and STILL pay a delivery fee? Wow. Just a heads up for everyone - if there is an issue with the delivery, YOU can expect to pay for it! read more

I don't care how good the furniture is or cheap the prices are. I will never come back here. I proceeded to ask the owner where their media centers were, intent on purchasing one for my new home. His condescending response is: POINT 1: "What're ya gonna put in it, kid?" And before I respond, he proceeds to mention how young my wife looked, thought she might have been 12, and would have guessed she was my sister. I didn't get angry. Just said, "I wouldn't say that if I were a salesperson here." Didn't receive any apology and just walked out. Too bad he didn't respect us enough to learn we were working with a 10K budget. Owner says as we walk out, "Sorry you have such a thin skin, sir." Really? read more

I would caution anyone from buying here: these guys are hustling inauthentic goods as designer items. I bought what I thought was an Eames recliner and ottoman from Jerome and Michael at 9th Street Designer Clearance. Both of them assured me that it was a licensed Herman Miller product "The same as you would get at Room & Board". I distinctly remember Jerome telling me that the shipment from the factory was 'On its way to a store that had just closed their doors.' Of course, in hindsight this sounds like hooey but I believed them. Why not with all the good reviews here on Yelp. They also had a photos and prices from the R&B site posted near the chairs (for both the recliners and Eames office chairs) My chair and ottoman look correct at first view but the seat/ottoman cushions don't zip-out and they are not AS cushy as the real deal. I should have known better than to trust them but as so many reviews say here they are great sales folks... In this case, Caveat Emptor are still the words of the day. read more

con artist's selling reject, defective and furniture's telling customers they these are worth 4x list price...but are items that manufacture cannot sell or returns. note: why each item has no manufacture labels, company that cannot be found on the web and they sell only floor models is because furniture's are all defective second hand items rejected one reason or another. purchased a electric recliner chair and was told item has lifetime warranty verbally. after using for less then a month the seem stitching broke and later the motor failed. called jerome (owner) and requested warranty service and got the run around as all items are warrantied from manufacture lifetime and in less then 4 months problems arose no service or warranty. in fact they told my wife and me that they been in business for over 10 years. yeah they been crooks for 10 years and was actually under another business name is why reviews are limited both to time and facts on yelp. the problem they would not provide any information whom to contact or stood behind their product they sell for repairs. stay away and ask for actual manufacture warranty, not their sales pitch as they would sell them mother / family junk to turn a buck. everything they sell can be found for much less else where if you take the time to search by image. that is why the floor samples have no model, manufacture info and use hand written fake high discounted label. check all their hand written labels $4900 wholesale price and $3000 below cost. item is sold on line $1800. most important why would any furniture store does not accept credit cards...? they say to save customers money....more bait and switch tactics, the real reason is because you can not dispute and reverse charges is their scam and have to take them to court. review your invoice as "sold as is all sales is final" accumulate the facts and don't buy from these crooks, even if the furniture looks beautiful, SO so called handcrafted by french, italian, european is all lies ! all rejects, defective, inferior and crooks to owner and sales persons. read more

I am leaving them one star because of their business ethics. They said when I purchased a bed frame that I had to leave a deposit which was not a problem and that they would refund the deposit should i not be satisfied with anything. I purchased a floor model bed frame that was white but had some scratches and dirt. When they delivered the bed frame the scratch that was on the corner looked like it had been covered by White Out and the bed was still quite dirty so I denied delivery. Never accept anything less than what is promised and pay otherwise they have no obligation to come back and make it right. The bed went back to the store and I asked for my money back and they straight up said no way. I responded saying well if you don't then I am going to take action as a warning. I filed a report to the BBB and a couple of weeks later I got a call saying now I am not going to give you back your money for sure. No way! I was shocked and repeated what they promised; we will return the deposit should I not be satisfied. Their prices are only marginally alright, you can find the same brands online for about the same price and mostly better. It will probably come as promised in the condition it stated. Don't do business with them unless you are absolutely sure it is what you want. Don't leave deposit money with them until they deliver the item. Their ethics are questionable especially when they ask for Cash only read more

We went back twice during our shop for a new couch for our living room. The first time was a great experience. The man was extremely helpful, asked us the questions that would help guide our choice and was not pushy. The second time we went back to look at the same couch. The man was rude and pushy. He basically told us we'll never be able to find the same deal and take it or leave it. We were basically ready to make a purchase that day, but with that type of customer service, I had no problem spending the same amount of money and buying a bit more at West Elm when they had their 25% sale during January. read more

Short version: We made a special order that arrived 2 months late after we given a number of bad excuses from the store and when it was delivered didn't match our original order. The store owner, Jerome, was extremely rude to me in all of my conversations with them over the phone and only seemed to respond when dealing with my boyfriend (sexist much?) Long version: We paid over $2,000 for a couch in November which was supposed to arrive in January. The store immediately deposited our check and then in January, our couch never came. Every time I called the store, they would give me an excuse that the order was held up in shipping or customs and it would just be another week (they said this over the span of a month). When I got tired of the excuses, I called the store owner, Jerome, and demanded that they refund our money because I no longer believed their estimates I was told that 1) Jerome claimed that all of my previous phone calls were with his sales associate, Michael, who gave me a bad estimate and that wasn't his fault. 2) When they gave me an estimate earlier when the couch was supposed to arrive, that was actually their estimate of when it would arrive to port, not when it go through customs (that was the first time they ever even mentioned customs to me - clearly making excuses for their bad estimate). 3) They would not give me my money back as they don't do refunds. 4) When I threatened to report it to The Better Business Bureau, he said "you go do that then" and hung up on me. I then went with my boyfriend to their store where, after 10 minutes of listening to him go through the list of excuses why our order didn't arrive yet, we got the owner to agree to give us our money back if the couch didn't arrive in a week and he suddenly acted polite and apologized for his behavior on the phone previously. I'm not sure if the sudden change in behavior was because I was accompanied by a man or if it's because the owner realized that I would seriously take him to court if we didn't end up with either our couch or money back. A week later, now March, the couch arrived and when it was delivered and unwrapped, we noticed that the sectional was the wrong direction from what we had ordered. When I called the store, they didn't seem at all surprised that the order was incorrect and instead tried to convince me to take a discount on the price to keep the wrong order. Finally, they send us a check with a full refund but the entire ordeal lasted 4 months and we were not treated with any respect or honesty during the ordeal. I think that it's possible that some of their reasoning for the delay was legitimate and outside of their control, but if these guys are as experienced as they claim to be they should pad their shipping estimates better and know that a shipment will take a few extra weeks to go through customs rather than lie to their customers about the timing. Also the fact that they're completely patronizing in person and rude on the phone doesn't help. read more

lol it seems the owner likes to comment on the age of potential clients. PC is the best policy even if you are that educated. in terms of the furniture, very old fashion stuff (big junky and not space-efficient). price is not necessarily cheaper than lots of other top notch stores. i don't really know where these "brand name" furnitures come from... anyway, not my cup of tea. read more

I kind of ran into this place on accident.. I was minding my own business, on my way to the Trader Joe's across the street to buy my usuals ("Just Chicken" and Carne Asada, if you must know!). I didn't want to deal with the parking in the lot which can be kind of a pain, so I decided to park on 9th Street. I glanced across the street after getting out of my car (of course, some crazy driver pumped up from his Golds Gym workout almost took my door off!). There it was... a giant banner advertising super cheap, designer furniture. Hmm... I had to check it out. Why did I HAVE to check it out? I have finally come to terms with my problem and can be honest... so here you have it... I have a furniture addiction. Yah, weird I know. But if you ask my mom, she will tell you about all of the times I re-arranged the furniture in my room as a little one and how it drove her nuts. But anyway.... I walked in and was greeted by a gentleman who struck me as someone who was really friendly - not a slimy sales man. "Ok," I thought. "You can help me with my addiction." They don't have prices on the furniture so he gave me a "secret decoder paper" - something about the prices being really low and the manufacturers not wanting them to advertise them. Great.. not only were they feeding my addiction, but now I get to go on an adventure! I might be here a while... hmm... how badly do I need that Carne Asada? I ventured through the store and found waaay too many pieces that I liked (my taste is fairly modern/transitional, and they had a lot of items in that genre). Since I didn't need to completely refurnish, I narrowed it down to a really cool accent chair and outdoor set that I was eying. I was honestly shocked at how well this stuff was priced. As I mentioned, I have an irrational addiction for furniture so I've been shopping around quite a bit. I had almost purchased some very similar items just about 2 weeks before and am so glad that I waited (fortunately an iced latte beckoned me and I got distracted... what is it with me, furniture, and food?!). I would have been out quite a bit more of dough if it weren't for that latte. So, I tracked down the sales guy and told him what I wanted. He informed me that payment was accepted in the form of cash or cashiers check.. That kind of sucked because I don't usually carry a wad of cash on me and always try to get air miles for any purchase. He offered to hold my pieces for a few hours while I visited my friends at the local BofA. So I parted ways with some nice, crisp Benjamins... But wait.. how was I supposed to fit this stuff in my Mustang and still have room for my Carne Asada/Just Chicken from TJ's? No prob... delivery! Oh.. and delivery...TOMORROW! Sweet! Next day, as I am sipping on my favorite mid-day iced coffee, the doorbell rings and in walk my newest acquisitions. Ahh.. I love this addiction. The guys who delivered got the job done with a smile, I gave them the rest of my money (I only paid 1/2 upfront), and they went on their happy way. So here I sit, on my new chair, sipping my iced coffee and telling you about it on Yelp. So stop reading my review and get down there and check out the furniture this place has to offer. You are obviously reading this because you either need furniture or need to feed you addiction like I did. So go. Go now! read more

I can't remember when I've had a more enjoyable shopping experience! I arrived at the store and was treated warmly from the moment I walked in. Michael and his staff strike the perfect balance between letting you explore without pressure and offering assistance when needed. The selection is nothing short of awesome; I had to go through the whole store twice just to be certain I hadn't missed anything. It's organized well, but still gives you some of that "treasure hunt" satisfaction. Michael was great and spent an inordinate amount of time assisting me with a fairly low-budget purchase. Despite that, he never made me feel like I wasn't an important customer. I've read the (very few) negative comments here and all I can figure is that they weren't able to enjoy Michael's irreverent sense of humor. Geeez, that's part of what made shopping here so fun, as far as I'm concerned! I'll definitely be back. My only regret is that I don't have an empty house to furnish. If I did, I would certainly start here first. I don't leave many reviews on Yelp, but this one was well-deserved. read more

Everything in this store feels like it belongs in the ersatz loft of a moderately successful investment banker. On the one hand, I feel bad criticizing a store merely for not being to my taste. On the other hand, if I'd known what I would have found, I could have avoided a trip here. Great if you like large leather sectionals, chrome accent pieces and reproduction Eames. Otherwise...not so much. read more

Overall: This store carries a large selection of quality furniture at a very reasonable price! Staff: Michael and Jerome are completely wonderful. Friendly, outgoing, honest, helpful, informative and really go out of their way to match you with what you are looking for. Inventory: I'm in the process of furnishing my house. I'm a quality-over-quantity kinda gal, and am willing to spend a bit more on a few pieces and do without the rest. I also appreciate pieces that are unique and have character...whether it's new or an antique. They do carry a wide selection of styles and price ranges, from modern to classics. You just have to have patience and wait for the right inventory to show up (and jump on it before it's sold!). Cash or check only, no credit cards...If you think you are serious about taking home a piece of furniture that day, come prepared with at least a check. They will deliver your furniture to your house, in some cases, the same day, if needed. I bought a beautiful bamboo modern / oriental nesting side table and I want to hug it everyday! read more

My girlfriend and I were in search of some furniture, and happened upon 9th St. through Yelp (thanks everyone!). We were hoping not to break the bank on a sofa and possibly some sort chaise lounge, or reclining chair, and had looked at several places before coming here. What we had found previously was a mixed bag of cheap, that looked cheap, or expensive, that looked mediocre. Nothing had really grabbed us yet. So we walk into 9th St., and I am a bit overwhelmed with the size of the store and variety of selections. A customer who is obviously pleased with his impending purchase happily greets us and asks us to sit on this soon-to-be-his sofa. We sit and agree that it is very comfortable. Then we meet Michael, who has been helping this gentleman find his dream sofa. Michael is a soft-spoken man who knows his business. He sets us up with a price list (the items on the floor are tagged with maker names and list numbers, but not prices), and tells us to ask if we have any questions at all. We stroll around the store and (after a few minutes, this place is pretty big!) we find a sofa and a chaise lounge that are excellent. And the price on both is right in the wheel-house! So we start talking with Michael about how the process works, and it turns out we can get these items delivered the next day. We end up talking with Michael for quite some time about all sorts of things, some of which include furniture. Super nice guy, really down to earth, and he knows all about furniture. The two pieces are delivered the next day (if it hadn't been late in the evening when we bought them, they probably could have delivered them that day!)! I am sure we are going to be in "need" of more furniture soon (not really a need, like water or air), and I can guarantee we will be back at 9th St. Note: These guys do not negotiate on price. Don't try. Also, I don't think they take credit cards, so cash or checks. The selection is always varied, as they are constantly finding one-of-a-kind deals and moving them out the door. If you find something you like, probably good to lock it down, as it could be gone soon. On the flip side, if you don't see something you like one time, check back in a couple of weeks. read more

I came in this morning, found an amazing black leather chaise longue at a great price, then a couple witty tirades with the owners and a couple formalities later, I was on my way with the rest of my day. The chaise got delivered in excellent condition right now just 7 hours later. This place has really cool furniture of modern/artsy aesthetic, and fairly good prices for the designs. I'll definitely be going back there again very soon. read more

These. Guys. Were. Awesome. My roommate and I were just moving to San Francisco from New York in a rush and were headed to the Bed Bath & Beyond over Potrero Hill when we spotted a curious furniture store right across the street. Mind you, we didn't really have any furniture shipped with us (expensive!) so we had been looking for some time for couches, beds, etc. We spent a great deal of time browsing around the showroom, which was packed with furniture that ran the gamut from modern and contemporary to antique and novel. We found more than several pieces that we wanted, but settled on an amazing couch the likes of which we had never seen. Jerome and Michael were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the entire process and were very knowledgeable about their entire selection. When it came time to buy, the deal-breaker question had to be asked: Do you guys offer delivery services? Albeit a Sunday evening, the unanimous response was, "You bet! And we can have it to you tonight!" These guys have a very close connection with a delivery crew headed by Manuel, and they repeatedly stated that he was the best of the best and very professional. As thick as they laid on the praise, Manuel exceeded it in his delivery. They delivered our sofa the night of purchase and with extreme care. Ultimately, these guys have outdone themselves in service and selection. As some of the other reviews stated, they do not take credit, so other routes of payment will need to be made. But these guys genuinely want to sell their fantastic furniture and they will work with you to make it happen. They apparently move furniture so quickly that they have an almost entirely new selection every week. We guarantee we will be going back to finish the rest of the apartment. Five stars, and these guys deserve it. read more

Michael and Jerome always take my money when I walk in the store , what's up with that? I go to this store and they take my money and then I keep going back.... Sometimes I go to other furniture stores to be disapointed or sticker shocked. ( I did get some really good furniture for the money :) read more

We've been searching for new furniture for weeks now and feel like we've seen it all - until we came here. We saw so many great deals - like Eames chairs for less than 50% of what they charge at other stores like Design Within Reach or Room & Board. Also, Mike was extremely helpful and worked with us for quite a while. We took the Eames chairs home that day and came back in just a few days for the dining chairs we bought. Thankfully we didn't have to get anything delivered. Cash or check only. read more

9th Street Designer Clearance store is a rare find! Since relocating to San Francisco, I have been scouring high and low for living room furniture. Everywhere I went, I found the same dull styles and poor quality repeated over and over again (like Groundhog day). I stumbled into 9th Street Designer Clearance by chance, while looking for Pier 1 Imports and BB & Beyond. A huge banner outside the building caught my eye. I almost didn't go in, but I owed it to myself to check it out. So what's one more store after going to so many others? To my discovery and delight, I stepped into a vast showroom full of one-of-a-kind furniture pieces. I landed in furniture heaven! Their showroom has a wide array of contemporary, modern, traditional, and antique furnishings to fill your entire house. I finally found gorgeous, unique, conversational, and of high quality furniture to suit my new life in the city, without paying high end designer prices, all in one store. The customer service here is unmatched! I was so used to being accosted by "greeters" from other stores who have no clue about their products. You won't find that here. Michael was so funny, very friendly, and offered many clever decorating suggestions (God bless him). He listened well to my needs and helped me to think outside the box and shared many cool ideas, without being pushy. The best part, he allowed me to browse and take my time without hovering and yet sensed when I had a question. Jerome was equally helpful and provided additional insights on the furniture pieces I was interested in buying. It was clear that regardless of how many questions I had or how long it took to decide, these guys were here to help me make the right choice. This easy going sales approach left an indelible mark! I finally decided on two beautiful living room pieces and purchased a beautiful red onyx end table and a gorgeous, comfortable beige sofa. The price was so reasonable. When I asked for the delivery date, Michael asked me "how about this afternoon"? Wow! I returned for another visit looking for an item I had previously seen, but it was gone. So my advice to you would be if you see something you like, buy it. Don't wait thinking it will be there tomorrow. Their furnishings are not mass produced and because of their prices, it goes fast. Luckily Michael told me he was getting a new shipment in a couple of weeks. When I returned to the store I couldn't believe my eyes! There were so many unusual and interesting pieces in the showroom. How will I choose? I finally decided on 2 chairs in a burnt orange color and cherry round shaped onyx end table, my "conversational' coffee table (previously used as an opium bed), and a beautifully crafted Indonesian wood cabinet which I will use as a media stand (see my photos). Of course I got it delivered all on the same day. So as I lay here on my couch and in my beautifully furnished living room by 9th Street Designer Clearance, I am compelled to write my first YELP review. I am an extremely satisfied and very happy customer. I know that Yelp is such a powerful tool for consumers and I wanted to share my wonderful shopping experience at this awesome furniture store. I will be returning to 9th Street Designer Clearance again. Get ready Michael and Jerome, I need to update my dining and bedroom soon!!! So if you are shopping around 9th street, stop by this furniture store and just wander around. Something will be sure to catch your eye!!! read more
