I saw some things I'd like, but they were way out of my price range! I was shocked considering this isn't new stuff. I thought the record collection was nice, but it was hard for me to see the top bins since I'm on the shorter side. Would be nice if they kept a small stepstool for people to use.

But every single time, we end up coming back here. We've now bought three different types of furniture from this place, and each piece has been exactly what we were looking for at a great value. Tom, the owner, makes all the difference. He's not only incredibly knowledgeable but also truly cares about finding the right fit for you. Tom listens, gives honest advice, and makes the entire experience personal and easy. If you want quality furniture at a fantastic price and a level of customer service that's almost unheard of these days, don't waste time elsewhere. We couldn't be happier with what we've found here and will keep coming back!

I fell in LOVE with it and knew it was the perfect gift for a friend of mine who is highly regarded in the horse-racing world. I knew it would be the absolute perfect gift for her. I went in there today and bought it... David is a pleasure to work with and so kind. And his store is such a vision.. Do yourself a favor and go spend some time looking at all the beautiful treasures and buy something special for yourself or someone you love. This store is amazing! Also - if you are an interior designer... Please pick out some special pieces for your clients, from David. He takes such pride in what he sells. He was also kind enough to gift wrap this piece for me and it looked beautiful. We are so lucky to have a store like this in San Diego and especially in the heart of Little Italy. You could spend a whole day looking at the beautiful shops on Ketner and having a nice meal at one of the restaurants nearby. I love this store! You will too... It feels like something out of Los Angeles, but the prices are much more reasonable here! It's not inexpensive, but you're getting what you pay for and the quality is so unparalleled.

He followed me around the store until I felt forced to have conversation with him. I awkwardly fumbled a couch cushion while trying to talk and figure out WTF was going on and he made a huff about fixing it. There are some nice items but I would never enter that space again. I've rarely felt so uncomfortable in a business.

False return policy and endless exchange delays -- buyer beware…read more I ordered nightstands from Modani in December 2025 and was disappointed when they arrived -- they were much shorter than expected. When I attempted to return them, I quickly discovered that Modani's advertised return policy is essentially a fiction. While they claim to offer returns, the fine print requires the customer to cover return shipping costs that far exceed the value of the furniture itself. In practice, that means there is no return policy. Rather than fight a losing battle, I worked out an exchange and ordered a couple of lamps, candles, and one other small item. That was over two months ago. As of today, I still have no delivery date. Every time I call, I'm told to expect delivery in "two more weeks" -- a response I've now heard repeatedly with no resolution. Frustrated, I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. The BBB has since informed me that Modani is not even responding to them. Do not order from this company. Their return policy is a sham, their exchange process is a runaround, and their customer service is non-existent. Save yourself the headache and shop somewhere that actually stands behind their products.

Months I began looking for a living room sofa set. I visited showrooms all over San Diego, Orange…read moreCounty and Los Angeles. Until I visited Furniture Depot in Chula Vista, most the sofas and accent chairs were either cheap, poorly constructed, overpriced, they didn't have the size sofa for my living room... or the fabric wasn't the color I was looking for to match my other living room decor. One store I was going to buy from prior, the owner had me pay for the entire living room set upfront "because it was custom" then after waiting over a month the guy told me the fabric was discontinued. I found a swatch sample in their showroom that was basically identical, but the owner told me it would be $1,500 more for that fabric. I told him the deal is dead, give me my money back, which he did. I concluded the guy seemed nice but he was like a wolf in sheep's clothing. After that painful ordeal, I went and searched showrooms in San Diego's South Bay. I was about to give up but there was one last store I went into that day on Broadway in Chula Vista, Furniture Depot. Right from the beginning I was impressed. Their showroom larger than most furniture stores with vastly different styles throughout. The manager Dustin greeted me shortly after I walked in. He was there to assist and answer any questions I had. Dustin was very knowledgeable about all the products. He put everything at ease. It was a relief speaking with someone in the business who was honest and transparent about everything. After speaking with him only a few minutes I knew I was going to make my purchase through this store. Everything I was interested in could be ordered new, he explained. He offered custom sizes and many colors to choose from. Dollar for dollar, based on the quality of product, I don't think there's any local competitor that can match their service or quality. The turn-around for the custom-sized furniture was very fast, less than 2 weeks. The guys who delivered the product performed a white glove delivery service for a very low reasonable fee, lower cost than most furniture places offer. I ended up buying a 92" sofa, ottoman and accent chair - all new - all matching fabric, great quality, and very comfortable to sit and lay in. I'm glad I found this place. I highly recommend this furniture store. (My photos in this review)
