Saw the spiffy ad for Ashley Furniture in Beatrice on TV over the 4th of July weekend. I was in the…read moremarket for a new bed. Decided to drive to Beatrice have lunch and check out the store and the sales they had advertised. The store is in an old shopping mall, with other stores interspersed. Electronics and appliances in the north side. (Where the sales lady hovered 5 feet away, and every time I would look at something, she would attempt to make a comment about the item. Shoo, go away...) The Close outs in the far south side of the building in an old discount store. No one was there. The main furniture store was in the old kMart. Again, like a used car salesman, a salesperson was on our heels again. Tell them I'm looking for a 3/4 firm queen size bed. She says, here just the one for you and points me to a 3/4 soft bed. Had no idea of firmness or construction of beds. Finally found one that might work. Took her 10-15 minutes to get a price. Asked her to write the model down and I was going to lunch. Salesperson started to fill out a sales form, asked for my name (OK) and then my address (???). Inquired why, and the response was the sales document, WTF? In regards to the other furniture, I seems to be of good quality and at a reasonable price. Needless to say, I left without making a purchase. The biggest turn offs were the hovering and lack of knowledge of the salespeople.

My wife and I have been purchasing furniture from this location for the past 5 years. On our most…read morerecent visit we purchased some living room furniture and a tv. We had the best customer service from their store manager Jenny that we just had to write about it. Ashley furniture found a great manager with Jenny. She was able to meet all our needs. The store owner is very accommodating and more than fair.
