I was in the market for a sofa, as I had just purchased my first home…read more The first floor is full of overstuffed chairs, love seats, in a variety of contemporary styles (only). I made my way upstairs to the 2nd floor where they have sofas and mattresses. I selected a boring "green" sofa. I found it to be weird that I would choose a "green" sofa, but it looked nice in the show room and seemed like a safe, neutral choice. I asked the salesman several times, "that's green?". He assured me of the color. So, I cough up the $600 in cash and was looked at like I had two heads when I requested a receipt. I inquired about delivery, and they do offer it, for like $40 or $60 bucks or something. I was mostly confident that my husband and I could heave it up the 20ish steps or so into my living room. So after a confusing trip back and forth to the warehouse, the driver seemed confused as to what couch/color he was getting and where it was located, hence my desire for a receipt. We loaded it into my truck, completely wrapped in cardboard and plastic. The driver looked at the tag and confirmed it was the right one. Sooo. We get it home and my husband and I have the delightful task of carrying the beast up the stairs. We get it into the house and I am anxious to cut the wrapping off. I start peeling away the layers and slowly to my dismay, realize the damned couch is BROWN. I can't believe it. I was so fussy about deciding on GREEN, that I get it home and it's the wrong color! I am shocked, covered in sweat from moving it so I immediately call P&S and tell them the couch is BROWN. They confirm the color I purchased is correct and that is what I got. They suggested that I bring a throw pillow from the couch back into the store to check the color. SO, I go back down there, bring the pillow in and it magically turns GREEN. Apparently, there is NO NATURAL lighting in the store, only fluorescent. I end up keeping the damned thing, but I was forced to paint the living room and remove the existing carpeting because it looked so ugly with the brown. I recommend taking a pillow or fabric sample OUTSIDE if you are particular about colors. Otherwise, save the money and hassle and buy the same cheap Ashley sofa at BIG LOTS for around half the price.

Slate is definitely one of those stores. I stopped in on Christmas Eve just to browse around and I wish I could have bought everything in the place! It is a pretty hipster little store, and everything inside would be both useful to have in your home and serve as a conversation starter with guests. The items are unique, interesting, and high quality. There are kitchen gadgets, bar cart fixings, home decor items, greeting cards, jewelry...the list goes on. It's a great store and fits well with the Church Street aesthetic.

We purchased a La-Z-Boy sofa and loveseat. We waited eight months for delivery. We received the…read moreloveseat first and it was comfortable, we received the sofa afterwards and the cushions were very hard and not comfortable. A definite difference between loveseat and sofa. We had a technician come out from La-Z-Boy and he said that they would swap the cushions on the sofa either with the showroom model or order new ones. I waited two weeks and called Novello's for follow up and they said the technician said there was nothing they could do. That is a complete lie and I am so upset. I called the store and talk to a manager and he said there was nothing they could do. So needless to say we will not be shopping there again and neither will any of my friends. Word of mouth is the worst advertising for you today.

We love our new furniture--but the customer service experience was disappointing…read more My husband and I were excited to purchase a new bedroom set. After comparing prices, we found that Burlington Furniture was quoting us $2,000 more than a California company, even with shipping and assembly included. Still, we wanted to support a local business, so we returned to Burlington Furniture, and they agreed to match the competitor's price. We were given an estimated delivery date of 4/30. When we followed up, we were surprised to hear that our furniture wouldn't arrive for nearly two more months. We understand that delays happen, but we were frustrated by the lack of communication. I called the manager to get clarity and was told that the employee who gave us that update was no longer with the company. She promised to follow up--which she did--but she didn't provide a new delivery timeline. Instead, she told us the order wasn't actually delayed and that deliveries typically arrive two weeks after the estimated date. It's unclear why the original estimate wouldn't account for that window, and what's worse, I never heard back from the manager again. Ultimately, the delivery company brought our furniture just five days after the estimated date, which we appreciated--but the poor communication and lack of accountability from Burlington Furniture left a bad impression. We're happy with the product, but extremely disappointed in the service. Sadly, this experience has cost Burlington Furniture a customer.
