Due to its Gepps Cross location, I am lucky enough to be the first to review. Today my best friend and I were cruising around, you know, just shopping for some cool stuff...and this massive store happened to be right next to JB Hi-Fi, where we bought a new PS3 game to play together. Yes, we young guys love our computer games. I admit it - we were going to go home straight after, but I couldn't resist it. We stepped in, and all I could mutter was, "Whoa!....This is massive! And it's so well laid out!" I ... just ... can't....get...enough! The male owner smiled and said hello to me straight away! He's hidden, located right in the middle of the store, so you have to walk a few metres forward before you see him. He introduced me to his range of products, and I was impressed with his efficient furniture education. The latest colours are black and white modern, and the prices were shocking - $600 for a black desk! And he told me I can mix and match colours such and dark and light browns stylishly with other colours. He then showed me what rustic (country) furniture looked like...now I have a better idea of how I'm going to lay out my new house in the future. But hopefully my bank account doesn't go bankrupt if I'm going to make my interior look as snazzy as this store.

Located in the new homemaker centre in Gepps Cross I honestly don't even bother looking in the others because I know I'll find what I like here for my budget. Being young and ready to move out of home soon, I've been gathering bits and pieces. I got a full solid wooden queen bed here with a beautiful mattress (I like quality so it was a nice soft one), for only $1500 with 2 bed side tables with draws which I thought was great. They deliver to your house as well which is handy, seeing as my car won't fit a queen mattress in the boot obviously. The staff are a little busy almost all the time so be prepared to wait around a bit or go hunting for someone, and they aren't too knowledgeable so I always go there with a certain thing in mind and research myself.

Great company to deal with , they delivered ok ish ! As they didn't call before which was the two…read morehr call but they gave me a half hr before which was fine so I got there ok with the kids in the end ..... They delivered me some Fiji furniture which is gorgeous all turned up wrapped perfectly however one chair was definitely dropped prior to delivery as turned up with a chunk out of it and warped ...,called and spoke to faith who sorted this immediately and assured delivery the next morning which surprised me ..... Had a phone call later that night confirming delivery for next morning .... Didn't come in the morning hubby called store and they assured me afternoon which yey happened in the end , not faiths fault think just communication problems with drivers and logistics but overall great product great price not unwrapping til I get to my final destination next week but store said any problems to let her know ASAP and they would sort , so overall a great store to do business with , helpful , friendly , just tweak deliveries more and yr there !!! Many thanks faith you know what yr doing ....! Customer service in this store is awesome .......again up there with the leaders in Sa !!!

So glad I found this lil' store. My partner and I found it driving past. They had a fab display of…read morevintage furniture set up outside. That generally catches my attention. So much so, I hit the brakes and double back! This store is full of really great thrift finds. Everything from clothing, jewellery, records, home décor, shows, electronics, etc, etc... But, what you need to know is that the couple that run this store really do find some quality antiques. I can almost guarantee that you will leave with something. What are my fave finds here? Well, we picked up an awesome 80s style stereo system with a record player for $150. Winning! The lovely owner even chucked in a few free records for us to play. How nice is that? I have also found a number of home décor items. So, stuff like vases, plates and toys. If you like swing style dresses, you will find a bunch here that are new. I think that the owner is totally into the rockabilly style. Very nice and worth stopping by if you are in the area.

This is a bright, colourful, happy feeling shop, with products to match. The most noticeable…read morefeature is the wall of Crocs footwear, with every kind of Croc I've ever seen and more! A great colour array. The other main types of item here are homewares and fairy clothing for little girls. There are two separate corners for dress-ups, with wings and toys and tutus. A pity they don't come in larger sizes. The homewares are all bright and cheery, mostly things like pillows and ornaments and candles. This would be a great place for gift shopping. The back room is the most fun - the green umbrella, I love it! I can't help noticing the confusion about its address - it's listed online as both 2/131 and 135 Semaphore Road, and doesn't have an official website to confirm this. Google Maps says 2/131 Semaphore Road, so I'll go with that. Either way, it's between the bookstore and Furniture By the Sea. Worth a look!

I think this is the end of the road in my search in finding a mattress, in more ways than one, if…read morewe were travelling via Taxi it would've been a huge fare! It was an epic distance to travel for us but after doing my research online for a latex mattress this seemed like a good place to visit....Pooraka here we come! Town and Country make and sell either 100% pure Dunlop Australian and New Zealand Latex or a combination of Latex and Viscoflex Memory Foam top mattresses. They also have a range of flexible slat base beds to suit. Available in various sizes and can also customise the mattress to suit needs. Slat beds only as they are the best for latex to breathe. And they suggested flexi slats because you can increase or decrease the firmness of the mattress by adjusting the plastic tension system on the slats. Yes this sounds like a good place to go. We were the only customers in the store and we had the salesman's absolute attention. He was really quite good as he discussed with us the benefits of memory foam and pure latex and advised not all latex was created equal. An interesting point he mentioned was the fact that when the latex mattress layers are bound together as two separate layers stuck together, you don't get as hot as because the two negate each other when you're sleeping on it. Short of buying one, I don't know if I can believe this as it's contrary to what every other bedding place says, but then again none of the others' sold pure latex mattress, there's other 'ingredients' in the mix of the layer composition. Grrr. We found the prices to be on par with another bedding place we visited, so it was no great saving but on the other hand Town and Country deal with Dunlop an Australian Latex registered as Latex Gold, compared to the imported Latex from Thailand alot of the other stores deal with. We could also have a bottom layer of firm latex and the top layer as memory foam, whereas at the other stores we have to select from their named range only...and it's much more expensive, in fact double at some places. And again it's really tricky as each store has their own range manufactured to their specifications, so there is no way to compare apples to apples!! To be sure we went back to Forty Winks Mile End, as it was my first port of call on my bed adventure and wanted to compare the memory foam Tempur mattress, which was the one I got steered towards in the first place, but it's mega expensive - despite the current sale. My hubby doesn't like latex or memory foam as it was for my benefit he persisted in coming and he loves me (awww) so the option is clear...two separate mattresses on the one base which will give us a King size bed, or two long singles on individual bases, which equates to a King size - plus we can push them apart when we have a tiff, he, he,he!! So in short, what we've learnt from this experience and to suit our needs, it's the above option. Sure it would be cheaper to buy the one mattress as a whole, but it won't meet individual needs, so it's the next best thing despite costing more (but not a great deal), for a bed that should last over 10 - 15 years...a small price to pay for spending half your lifetime in bed, may aswell be comfortable.

Hi, For anyone…read morelooking at purchasing a natural latex mattress, all I can say is 'buyer beware' Unless you like the smell of latex these mattresses never give up gassing off the horrible odour of chemical rubber, even worst when it's hot. (smell a latex glove, then times it by a million and try to sleep on it) I have a $2400 100% natural latex mattress that occupies our spare room and we cannot get a refund for it even though it is still brand new, because the only fault with it is that it smells like latex. Yep, that's what we bought !! It's been 18 months now and it still stinks really bad. Very sad, and a waste of money. If I can warn others of this major fault and stop them from going down the latex jargon path like I did my job is done. Buyer Beware

I was attracted to some well priced items for a small home project I was completing though. The trouble is that to reach these prices they have to cut corners, and hence there is only a suggestion of staffing, not the reality of a properly staffed store. The money you save needs to be balanced by standing in a queue for 20 minutes to checkout, and then being told that in order to gain said discount you have to be mugged of your personal data in order to join their "Club".
