We were wrong-what a great little furniture store. Ms. Jackson assisted us in our purchase and let me tell you, a better, kinder human being you will not find!!

I wanted the Catnapper Transformer because it was made in America, real leather, and all three seats have a retractable foot rest and the backs recline. I had never seen a three seat couch where all three seats recline! I called the day before to find out if this item was available on the showroom floor and I couldn't have gotten a friendlier person on the phone to help me. She was like Aunt Bea brought all of the way to 2019 to help out a man in need. The next day I went down there in a hurry to try this bad boy out for myself. Now remember, I've sat on about every couch in Birmingham by this time so I know just what I'm looking for in terms of the perfect firmness/cushiness and the look I wanted the leather to have. She encouraged me to sit on it any way I wanted to and even stretch all of the way across it! She showed me a few more items in the store to make sure this one was what I wanted but i was sold on this beauty from Mississippi. They threw in delivery for free and I bought an extended warranty on top of the manufacturer warranty because I want this to last me the long haul and my family ain't too easy on the furniture. Do yourself a favor and check out Standard when you are shopping for furniture. Unless you like to pay way too for crappy furniture and get pushed around by know nothing sales people. If you want that, I can direct you to a place I know you will like. I will be back!!!

If I could give them zero stars I would. This is a predator Buy Here- Pay Here type of home…read morefurnishings business that has been able to get rich off of people unable to buy household items elsewhere for various reasons. I took someone there at the end of our shopping trip due to their demanding pleas to 'just see'. Long story short, against my better judgement they paid for a NEW dining room set with a debit card. I noticed when it was still on the truck none of the items were in a box and called the store to see why?They insisted it was indeed all new. I should have never allowed it off the truck. Once it was in the house and I sent them pictures proving it wasn't new they instructed the driver not to take it back, refused to refund the money back to the card and tried to tell me I agreed to buy the floor model. Had I done so I assure you I would have negotiated a discounted price. They then pointed to the fine print on the sales agreement for "Installment Loans" they wrote the purchase up on that said there are no refunds on anything on this sale. This was a cash purchase and there was damage to the table, a chair and China cabinet. Everytime I see one of their deceiving commercial on TV my anger for crossing their doorstep returns. Had I been in control of that person's affairs, I would have followed the process with their bank to dispute the situation, hired an lawyer and/or protested in person, on line and contacted the local media. They have been able to get away with this predatory behavior because their customers dIdn't have the capacity to dispute them. I wouldn't let myy worst enemy buy a mop from them.

We were a bit skeptical prior to walking into the store, but do not judge a book by its cover! As soon as you walk in you are greeted by a friendly associate. We had a very nice young man named Rodney who made us feel very welcome and not pressured in the slightest. He was very knowledgeable on all the products and really helped us understand the various models of the furniture (couches, bedroom set) we were looking at. The furniture was very high quality and much more sturdy/well-made than most of the furniture you will find at big box stores. We were "just browsing" our first time in the store. The next day we came in to purchase the furniture and Rodney immediately remembered us by name. The whole process was very easy and stress-free. The owner of the store even came out and talked with us for quite awhile and made us feel at home. The furniture they delivered a few days later was immaculate and the deliverers even put together the bed frame for us. I have nothing but positive things to say about this hidden gem, and we will certainly be back in the future if we have more furniture needs!

An elderly woman greeted me and my 3 year old with kindness and complimented us. We continued to browse while my husband overheard the woman telling the elderly man I'm assuming her husband to keep an eye on us. Being the only brown people in the store one can only assume it's for that reason. If you are a minority I do not recommend this place.

When we did go back recently the store had a bit of a remodel. It was nice, but just did not have the same feel as before. Prices on items tended to be a bit more hefty and the selection seemed more, how can I say,... "tan?" We went on a Saturday, which used to be a very busy time for them. But this time the store only had a couple of shoppers. Just couldn't put my finger on it, but it just didn't seem as interesting or inviting. The staff seemed a bit standoffish as well. I suspect if we are back down that way, we may stop by. Just don't think this will be a planned destination any longer.

It wasn't until I got to Pelham and met Greg that I decided to buy a mattress. We went through the awkward and fake "becoming best friends" experience in all the stores we visited. I had to argue with one Bedszzzz manager because he wouldn't accept my assessment of the size of the mattress I was replacing. Without exception they all wanted to start with a higher line than I had said I wanted. Greg stood up, smiled, and said, "How can I help you today," and the experience got better from there. He didn't have the size I wanted in extra firm, but he brought in another size of the same mattress from the warehouse and let me try it. I told him I liked it and he gave me a price that was 10% to 20% better than the same mattress in other stores. I asked him about delivery. Greg looked out the window and saw the Honda CRV I was driving and said, "If you want to go over to the warehouse just down the road, the mattress would fit in my car and I could take it home today. Then I could bring the old mattress back at my convenience." As he was writing up the order, I learned his name and we talked about his kids and my grandkids and had a very pleasant visit. I don't suppose, at my age, I'll be buying many more mattresses, but if I do, I hope Greg is still there 'cause I love his service. BTW, I love the mattress, too. I stayed in bed until almost 8:00 am this morning. For years, I've gotten up around six because my back was hurting so bad, I couldn't stay in bed any longer. Rod Peeks Birmingham
