AVOID THIS COMPANY - USED SOMEONE ELSE INSTEAD…read more I rented furniture through CORT and it was a nightmare from start to finish, almost entirely due to poor internal communication. What happened: - Delivery date got pushed back a day -- minor, but it set the tone. - They tried to place me on their most expensive package, blaming an internal miscommunication. Took two calls to sort out. - They required my full SSN and date of birth and wanted to run a *hard* credit check for a 3 month furniture rental -- excessive for a furniture rental. I managed to avoid the credit check and giving them my SSN by downgrading one package. - Called four times during the workday for payment info. I paid the first time, but three more people called because they hadn't tracked that I'd already paid. - Asked three to four times to sign a lease I'd already signed, because different people kept calling about it. - Rarely spoke to the same person twice -- constantly bounced around. - Worst part: after everything was resolved, lease signed and payment collected, I got a call one hour before closing saying they forgot to add insurance to the lease I'd already signed. To waive the charge, I had one hour to get a COI from my renters insurance and add CORT to it. One hour's notice to fix their mistake. - Roughly 8-10 calls in the middle of my workday, total. Almost all of it could have been handled online or through a single point of contact. My main contact was supposed to be someone named Josh; I also dealt with Gabrielle and several others I lost track of. I've already signed, so it's too late for me -- but in my opinion, look elsewhere. I'd suggest Fernish or Fashion Furniture Rental instead.

I rented furniture for my apartment and it was an okay experience. What was great was their…read moreselection of furniture, as I had a tiny place and needed smaller furniture. Delivery was on time and efficient, but there was a moment of drama in the beginning when they were realizing that it was a sixth floor apartment with no elevator and they were calling their ops people to ask if they really needed to go through with it. (I only had 12-15 pieces, mostly small, for a studio apartment). I had clearly stated this when I filled out the forms and put in a special note about it, so it was awful to have them arrive and be faced with not having a bed to sleep on that night. They sorted it out and delivered as expected. What also wasn't great was that I signed up for the flex plan to be able exchange pieces whenever, and this went fine the first time, but second time I did this, they informed me that they had pivoted their business to doing only staging homes and selling furniture. There were also some email exchanges with their ops/support team that just required a bunch more arguing than I would have preferred. They did give me refunds on the flex plan, but now I'm stuck with furniture that I wanted to exchange for other pieces, but no way to do it. When my contract is over, I intend to return all this furniture.

I ordered the "Flynn Mid Century Modern 4 Drawer Multifunction Chest w/Pull Out Tray Acorn". The…read moreitem arrived on time with no issues. Upon inspection of the dresser, I found that the drawers do not close square. Meaning, one side of the drawer sticks out farther than the other when closed. I also found the miter joints to be unacceptable. Casaone customer service has ignored my request to return the item. They have ignored the issue of the poor miter joints and suggested they ship me new rails to correct the drawers not squaring up. I've attached pictures of the issues. Judge for yourself if this item should be returned.

I'm so glad I did because she was incredibly easy to work with and helped me design and purchase the appropriate furniture, decor, and housewares for the rental units I wanted to establish. While setting up long-term vacation rentals differs from staging a house for sale, her experience shone through as she tailored the design to accommodate those who would be living in the homes temporarily. I highly recommend her for any design or renovation project you might have. It was a truly enjoyable experience working with her!

Disappointed - Warning - Sandra from Fresh Home Staging requested a $4,000 deposit towards a total…read morecharge of $5,000 to stage my very small one-bedroom apartment. We agreed upon a $3,000 deposit as I thought a $4,000 deposit was too high. Luckily for me, my apartment sold off the market weeks before it was to be listed. My realtor contacted Sandra TWO WEEKS before the staging was to be done and she refused to refund all or any part of the $3,000 deposit. The contract did state non-refundable; however, it didn't seem reasonable that she would find it conscionable to keep the whole $3,000 deposit. My expectation was for a reasonable conclusion. Not to mention my realtor uses her often. She gave him no regard either (favor to a frequent client since she works with him often). Very disappointed in how Sandra handled this situation. Overall, bad experience, and I would not use this company again.

Sandra helped us quickly sell our condo with her fabulous staging skills…read more And while that accomplishment tends to be what most people focus on, the way in which Sandra conducts business is very much worth recognizing. She's responsive. Six months later, I'm still waiting for a return call from another stager I reached out to! Sandra follows through on what she says she's going to do. She's an excellent communicator -- very proactive -- and will use whatever means necessary to get in touch with you for updates, answers and decisions related to timing. I also found Sandra to be very flexible and understanding. She navigated delays, tight timelines, people/personalities, and whatever came her way with grace and ease. If Sandra gets stressed out or rattled, I never saw any sign of it. She was consistently focused on delivering a great outcome and doing so in a manner that very much kept us, her clients, at the center of that. It was a pleasure working with Sandra and I highly recommend Fresh Home Staging.

Honestly, I hesitated doing this as I felt that it was just pouring money down the drain, but I was wrong. Staging really does give the potential buyers ideas on how to best use the space. We actually sold the place for more than the independent estimated appraisal value that we had paid for about 1 year earlier. Well, that was also kudos to my realtor, however, I do want to say that I thought that staging made a huge difference. I mean I wanted to live there once it was staged. Our closing got delayed as the buyers had a family emergency and we didn't want to pull out all the furniture in case the deal fell through. Bella extended the rental for a week and didn't charge us anything more as a courtesy. Thank you so much Bella. the only strange thing was they didn't take checks. Either cc or Zelle. Ok, I don't own this property by myself and I don't have a joint cc with my partners. It was over the limit set by my bank to pay them, so I had to make multiple payments while I tried to get my bank to up my limit. Normally, I just use Zelle to pay back friends for joint dinners, not send $$$$ to vendors. It was fine once I got the bank involved, but it would have been less stressful if they just took a check.

From our first meeting to our last, Wyatt and Renee were both very attentive to my husband and my very different needs and decorative styles. Renee and Wyatt were able to streamline both of our wants into a living space that neither of us could have ever imagined. I love that they gave us ideas for our space that we had never thought about. And they were able to utilize spaces in our home that we had never used before. With all big home projects we had a budget and Bella Casa was able to work with ours to create a living space that as beyond our expectations. They are exceptional designers I would highly recommend them for your own home design or staging projects. Our home is finally beginning to look like the home we have always wanted.
