    Spencer Q.

    A very good sized showroom with many pieces you can test out. Most importantly they have a parking lot.

    spent many weekends in sf shopping to furnish a house from nothing...room & board in sf is quite large and always a pleasant experience...the staff are knowledgeable and quite professional...helpful when needed, but always giving you space to freely browse without interruption...when you are not sure, the staff encourages you to order and simply return if you don't like it even for customized orders...bought multiple pieces from beds and dressers to tables, benches and more...the delivery estimates were fairly accurate and notifications to schedule delivery were clear and easy...pay half for all orders and pay remaining balance when scheduling delivery or pick up...they do allow pick up from the brisbane room & board warehouse to avoid shipping charges...large items were ordered for white glove delivery service, and random smaller items were ordered throughout the weeks for pick up...returning items we didn't like was easy and refunded fully...did have one damage issue, but will be replaced in a few months while we temporarily use the damaged piece...each piece of furniture is quite heavy from use of solid wood...metal furniture is also quite heavy duty with thick metal...don't think there is ever a sale...actually makes it easy by not needing to wait for a one...if you like something, you just buy it...for an idea to pricing...an emerson bed frame was about $2,100, large dresser with 8 drawers roughly $2,500, large nightstand about $1,200...metal bench was about a $1,000...prices are rounded estimates after tax...delivery for a bed and large dresser with set up was about $159...other various pieces purchased, and quality and experience has been positive...

    First impressions are excellent: Beautiful showroom with some items having a mid-century modern feel. We were greeted as soon as we walked in. I sat on a few sofas, very comfortable and solid. A salesperson gladly gave me a catalog and his business card. He pointed to all the fabrics as "the fun part" and I shared, "And this is where my anxiety spikes, too many options!" He chuckled and assured "This is where we come in to help you." Anything on the showroom floor they have in stock and can be delivered in a week. Special orders are now 8-9 weeks out which seems pretty speedy. I'm looking but trying to accelerate my decision-making: My sofa frame seems damaged, it's been almost 10 years, time to replace.

    We had an excellent experience with Jason at Room & Board. We came in really undecided about what we wanted and Jason patiently showed us different options over two visits. He also did some renderings for us which helped us to visualize what different pieces might looks like in our space. We love the bookcases and media center that we finally picked - they make our living room seem light, inviting, and modern in a warm way. I saw there were some negative reviews here. I think the key is to find the right designer and to also know that this is higher end furniture store. These pieces seem timeless to us and we expect they will still be gorgeous and fit our aesthetic for decades to come.

    Just like with everything these days, Ben and I were super short on time but had been putting off a visit to Room & Board for a week already! We decided to stop in with only 45 minutes to spare and were delighted to be introduced to Mark! We needed a sectional and had an idea of what we wanted from shopping R&B online - so the only things we thought we had to do was 1. Sit on the actual couch to see how it felt, and 2. pick the material for it. We had the room dimensions measured and sectional couch measurement ranges for our space. Mark was absolutely phenomenal. He showed us a few different options and gave us great insight on what else to consider. He let us try out the different models new vs. broken in, recommended what to look for with material, and most importantly , he talked Ben out of buying a green couch and going with the grey color I originally selected (but Ben had called boring!). lolol! We left feeling so taken care of and happy with our choice! Definitely recommend going online and configuring the couch yourself if you have the dimensions and if you're going with a custom couch. We absolutely cannot wait to get ours in May!! Big and huge thank you so much to Mark as well!

    So we live in an Eichler. For those not from the Bay Area, Eichler was a home developer who had a mission. He wanted to create inexpensive tract homes for the lower middle class that had a sense of style and community. They were and are the epitome of Mid Century Modern. Think Frank Lloyd Wright meets the Connor family. If your curious there is a killer documentary titled People in Glass Houses: The Legacy of Joseph Eichler. Eichlers are small homes and as such furniture choices have a huge impact. Plus not everything looks good and its easy to destroy the gestalt of the house with a wrong choice. Enter Room and Board. Lets be honest here, the stuff is not cheap. But for owners looking for a clean esthetic, comfortable and functional design, this is your place. Many of these are lifetime purchases given the quality of construction and use of hardwoods. The store contains three levels. Scattered thought are various displays of the furniture and the like. The furniture is by and large made here in the US. The tags on each piece gives you its origin and composition, type of wood etc. Another aspect is that all of the paint on the walls in the showroom is available and they are happy to provide you with color swatches. Alot of the pieces allow you to customize, change colors, or even go with different wood. Even some of the storage options allow for custom sizes. The customer service is top notch and as a plus they are not on commission so you are not hounded at all while you shop. Delivery is also quite good with each piece polished after it is unwrapped and installed in your home exactly where you want it. So what the downside? The parking can be sucky on weekends as they only have a small lot. Also a few years ago the Herman Miller line was dropped (not by them mind you) so if you looking for say and Eames Lounge Chair you are out of luck here. But they have compensated diversifying their product line.

    Poorly made fire pit

    We have done a ton of business with Room and board and over the years. We've experienced a good number of defects with their products(this time a fire pit) . There was a time when they stood behind them however, recently they have found a way of having very little accountability for their quality. we will look elsewhere in the future. Unfortunate as we have been customers for a long time.

On the last visit (Labor Day 2025), I'm not sure if there was a new employee, or if the person at the cash register was just having an off day, but the lady working the register was incredibly rude. I'm sure some of my questions weren't that hard, however they were questions that, had they gone well probably would have resulted in some good sales. However, the individual couldn't be bothered to look up or get off the computer or phone to help in a meaningful way. Additionally, my wife asked a question about a mirror and whether or not it was recommended to hang or not, and she just said, "did you look at the back?" in a rude tone. It was clear she didn't want to help us (or maybe she didn't want to be at work on this particular day). I'm hopeful that this was a one off event, I'd still like to think it was just this particular worker that was off. I think we'd visit again, however will go out of our way to not work with that individual. In the end we passed on spending a good chunk of change (in our eyes) because this individual couldn't bother to get off her phone/computer or help her customers. We will give it another chance, and hopefully the next time we're in changes our view. Incredibly disappointing for a store we used to love.

This feels like terrible marketing and customer service to not make it right or attempt to. Do not buy this product if you want a smooth recline and are looking for the leg and head recline to be independent of one another. It's not comfortable. The only thing it's got going for it is it's beautiful. I wish I would have never bought this because now my only option is returning with a 50% restocking fee.

My experience dealing with Carlos was great, and I'll definitely be a repeat customer. I've been following their website for a few months now and they consistently have interesting, affordable mid-century pieces rotating through their inventory. I think they said there are updates on the site every 10 days, but the RSS feed seems to have something new every two or three days. Since there isn't a storefront (it's run from a storage unit in Portrero Hill) this is the best way to check out what they've got on hand. I ended up going to meet Carlos at the storage unit for a pair of lounge chairs and a dresser. Normally I'm extremely hesitant to purchase furniture sight unseen, but everything I saw in person was in such impeccable condition that I regret not putting down a deposit on the dresser - by the time I showed up the next day to check it out, it had already been snagged by some lucky jerk (Carlos had told me that someone had put down a deposit on it earlier, so I knew this was probably not going to work out). Instead I had to "settle" for just the chairs, which look fantastic in my place. He even wrapped everything up in plastic wrap for me since the person who had my Zipcar truck the hour before me had apparently used it to transport their collection of dirt. Just a totally satisfied experience overall.

Clearly Carlos has an eye for design and attention to detail, because the refinishing was excellent on the pieces we saw. We purchased the dresser and arranged for delivery, which was prompt- the next day. The dresser arrived wrapped in moving blankets and was carefully set up in my room, and it looks awesome! I will definitely be doing business with MCMF again, I found everyone to be highly professional, friendly, and prompt. Additionally, I have my eye on some other things we saw.
