If you are into used mid-century modern furniture, then this is the place to visit. It was my first time visiting Ballard Consignment and spent at good 2 hours walking through and exploring. This store is located in the heart of Ballard on Leary Ave. There is a dedicated parking lot, however I chose street parking. Their showroom features vintage, mid-century modern, and high-end furnitures. They also have a decent amount of rugs, wall accents, room dividers, and paintings, and even cocktail sets. The prices are quite reasonable and they have measuring tapes available. If shipping is an issue, they also offer delivery through Uff Da Logistics for a fee. I in search for a record stand, however didn't exactly find one that fit my style. I did score on an antique chess set with case. The staff was very friendly and even offered to open other display cases so I can take a look at other items. I'll definitely revisit this shop and see if there are any other items worth taking home. read more

I am so glad I came to Ballard consignment for what I was looking for furniture wise. I was gifted my first TV, and wanted a super unique and used/vintage media center! They had so many beautiful options that it was honestly hard to choose!! I'm including a photo of the table I brought home. The prices were very fair for the beautiful pieces they have. Such a fun store to shop even if you aren't taking something home too! The staff was very nice and helpful and I am so happy with my find! read more

Ballard Consignment Store - Walnut vintage console table - Furniture Stores Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Had a confusing experience here. Visited specifically to ask about a leather couch I saw on their website, and in the store I was told that it was made of real leather, and the person who helped me even unzipped a cushion to tell me that if it's suede inside, then the couch is real leather. I called back a few days later, and asked again what the couch material is. The person who picked up told me that it's made of fake leather, and that if it were real leather, the website would explicitly say so. Ended up not buying the couch, but if the couch really had been faux leather, I may have paid real leather prices for it if I'd bought it the day I visited. The store itself is very large with a mix of both used and new pieces. Didn't look at much else, but they seemed to have a huge variety of styles and types of furniture. read more

Ballard Consignment Store - The couch in question - Furniture Stores Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Lots of beautiful unique and interesting furniture pieces! I'm from out of town so I did not buy anything but I did appreciate the variety here as when compared to the consignment shops at home. Would totally buy from here if I didn't live from somewhere else. read more

Great place consignment and extremely helpful team! I would highly recommend if you want to consign, especially estate items.

This place is so cool! Friends of ours go here often and took us with them this visit. There are rooms and rooms, floors and floors of quality furniture, art, lamps, rugs, bits & bobs, and more. One could get lost in this fantastic store. They seem to feature a good amount (or really good replicas of) of mid-century modern stuff and Asian inspired furniture, but there's probably something there for you, regardless of your aesthetic. And the prices are not crazy! Quality and affordable for some excellent pieces. read more

Would not recommend. Both the owner and employees are unkind, and unprofessional. Have yet to have a good experience here. The managers and moving lead, are especially hard to work with. Once would have come out of my way to come here when we were in town, but I can't say I've had a good experience with them in the last few times we've visited. Disappointed to say the least. read more

Ballard Consignment is where you come when you want one part thrift store and one part classy, vintage and does not look like it came from a thrift store. Came here a couple visits looking for cool, unique but not crazy high-priced furniture. It's good to come often as things move quick and stock is regularly changing, so if you see something you really like, it may be best to move on it. After a couple visits, we settle on a couch and a chair that looks like it be part of a set. They have so many types of furniture here - antique, art - deco, modern, mid-century, traditional, chic and much more. The service here is very nice. I've come here a few times now and, in my visits, have interacted different guys every time. What didn't change was how nice and helpful they are. Yeah, I get they're trying to make a sale or commission, but they go for giving you advice, opinions, answers to questions and even a couple of guys moved a big coffee table from another room in front of the couch we were eyeing so that we could all see how well it matched. That was very appreciated. They're very helpful here and don't come off as overbearing. What is also great is they are partnered with a delivery service. This is good because transporting heavy furniture isn't something I'm not able to do and am not sure many people want to do even if they can. You give the delivery team the details via text and then a delivery date and time is arranged. Simple. The partnership is very welcomed when you're buying here, even though they're a separate business. Got a few pieces from here and so far, so good. Will continue to pop in. If you are looking for some older and unique furniture this is the place to try. Even if you come just to look around, you can easily spend an hour or more here as there is just so much furniture. Table sets, wardrobes, bed frames, mirrors, couches, lamps, stools, wall arts ranging from small to giant sized and more covering like 3 spread out floors. So much to see and if you're looking closely, just might find that groovy furniture piece perfect for your spot. read more

My husband and I purchased a sectional couch from Ballard Consignment in October, using money we had received as a wedding gift. It was a huge purchase for us, one we sweated over for months. What we selected was not a vintage or used piece, this is a new, white-label brand of furniture that they carry in their store alongside used items. The thing was almost $2,000 and it is falling apart 5 months in, and the customer service we have received has been abysmal. The two pieces of the sectional will not stay clipped together because of some sort of defect. The clips come loose, and then will not stay latched, meaning we have to re-join the two sectional pieces almost daily. This also means pulling all the cushions off to re-arrange them. The fabric also has proven to be of very low quality, as it is already starting to pill and sag in places. Again, this is in 5 months of use. When we asked about repairs or returns, we were refused either option. The ONLY option we were offered was to re-consign with Ballard (hah!). Particularly wild seeing as the sectional's clips are broken and falling off...I assume they were just going to put it out on the floor to lure in another "all sales final" customer. Especially for such a big ticket item, this kind of rip-off stings. I have no idea what we are going to do with this couch. I really feel like we were sold a lemon, and the attitude of management tells me that they probably know this furniture is garbage, because they literally will not stand by their products. Sounds like other Yelp reviewers have received abusive messages from the business owner following their low reviews...maybe I should close my DMs... read more

Amazing little shop that is not little at all. From the outside, it looks pretty small. Parking lot is very small and permit only (which you grab at the front desk before you shop). But this place is huge! Each room leads to another room full of wares. We found kitchen dining chairs, and I fell in love with a table that's sadly too big for our space. Of the 3 consignment locations in this family (Everett, Bellevue, and Ballard) this one is my favorite. Staff is so helpful and kind. Highly recommend for anyone who needs furniture, and doesn't want to add to the planets waste! read more

Super neat and huge! No clothes but something for everyone as far as a house goes. Super unique and I thought very fair prices!

A cool spot in Ballard that offers a wide-variety of vintage/retro furniture, accent pieces, and decor to spruce up your living or work space. The store itself is huge and there's a lot to navigate, so even if you don't know what exactly you're looking for, it's a great place to get some creative inspiration if you're in the market for a redesign or remodel. We were impressed by the great selection of mid-century furniture they had, as well as the large pieces of artwork for those bigger walls that you don't always know what to do with. Even if you're dealing with a smaller space, there were plenty of quirky knick-knacks for your shelves and coffee tables too. The staff was around, but let you browse at your own pace without being pushy. We had a few questions and had no problems getting some insights/answers whenever we needed them. Near a ton of great restaurants, shops, and coffee spots, so definitely worth a stop-by if you happen to be in the area! read more

I am from Northern CA and am a consignment junkie. My daughter just got her first apartment where she could actually choose her furniture. After hitting IKEA (yuck), I went on the hunt for a good consignment store. Checked Yelp and bam! Found this gem. It is HUGE! The people are so nice. Upstairs square footage pretty much matches the lower level. Lamps, couches, dining sets, pretty much anything you can think of you will find it here. What I love is that you can have a very small budget and still walk away with a couple of items you love. Did I mention you can have your items delivered?! Check this place out. You will not be sorry. read more

Hidden gem located in the heart of Ballard. Consignment pieces are in great condition with a variety of options to choose from. You'll find modern items to classic and retro. So much space is dedicated to fun and interesting accessories, décor and furniture-you'll spend your time talking about everything in there, lol. Staff is hard at work-moving and shaking and available to help with a smile. We walked away with some coffee table and wine accessories, a clock and little knick knacks. In general, the prices are more than average and on the high side. Depending on how long the items been there, take a chance and make the associate an offer. Definitely a recommended place to visit, whether you are window shopping or looking for a unique piece. read more

High quality items, courteous staff and good value throughout. The store is well kept, large, and always full. Parking is a bit contentious - they have maybe 10 (free) assigned 1-hr spots and they must be validated at the register before shopping. Street parking within a few blocks is ample. We have purchased a few excellent pieces of furniture over the past few months. This is worth a stop on a weekend or rainy day, a lot of treasures to be found! read more

This is a really fun store to shop at and has some great items with a huge selection for being in the middle of the city. I love the weird layout of the store and all of the different levels to explore, I honestly could spend all day just looking at things in the store. There are some very cool and unique furniture pieces and I feel like the stock turns over at a good rate so there are always new things to look at. The only reason I knock off a star is that I've seen at least a few items in the store that are available from mass production vendors (not a bad thing on it's own) for cheaper than in the store. This isn't the worst thing in the world, but I think a lot of people assume they are seeing used and discounted furniture so I would just encourage people to still compare prices when you can. read more

After I left a review about terrible and costly experience at another Ballard furniture shop I realized I've been remiss doing my part to get the word out about Ballard Consignment. The Pros: - great mix of vintage, new and discounted sample items (see a selection in attached photos) - quickly rotating inventory and lots of very unique finds (this also means if you love it, buy it, it may be gone the next day) - delivery partnership with a team that's absolutely terrific and will scotch guard your cloth furniture on request (again see pics - our house is boisterous and messy and this service has kept our stuff pristine) - flexible - we asked them to hold a large piece a few extra days until painting was finished in our house and they graciously agreed despite it taking up valuable floor space - kid friendly - I had mine sit on many, many couches The cons: - If you are going thinking you will find the perfect XYZ that day, you may disappointed. This isn't a chain store with set inventory and that means patience and perseverance - again, if you like it, buy it - these are one-of-a-kind and undoubtedly someone else will fall in love, too - One star deducted as the staff over the years has been very inconsistent. We've had salespeople who are incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and lovely and others that seem inconvenienced by ringing you up read more

After years of window shopping (and in the middle of the pandemic), my husband and I found a couch we loved on the Ballard Consignment Store website. He called the store and requested more information about it, and they arranged everything (for an incredible price). The staff here is committed to giving customers an excellent experience, with a top-quality rotating selection of fantastic vintage (particularly mid-century modern) items, and the store is a wonderland of unique antiques, artwork and more. Even if you're not sure that you're ready to buy, I strongly recommend checking them out. We love our sofa and can't wait to return for our next big furniture purchase! read more

We recently moved from Connecticut and were downsizing from a house to an apartment We decided to leave some items behind and opt for more high quality furniture that would last a longer time. Ballard Consignment did not disappoint. Their selection is MASSIVE and they have an excellent mix of refurbished vintage items and some new high quality pieces. We were very impressed by the prices as well. Before hopping to IKEA or West Elm give this place a shot. read more

This is a consignment store done right. They have consignment pieces but also new pieces, old vintage pieces as well as West Elm lookin' items. I love how big the store is and even though I never need anything new for my apartment, I love coming here just to browse. I wish I knew about this store when I moved to Seattle because there's some pretty good lookin' couches for very reasonable prices (even compared to a completely new couch at Ikea). People are friendly and ask whether we need help. Also you can negotiate prices here which I didn't know until a salesperson told us (and how amazing is that they are transparent about this?). My friend bought a 100% wool blanket for about $40, and it was going at $100 online (sales price at the manufacturer). I will definitely be coming here if I ever need new furniture! read more

What a gem. So many unique furnishings We'll return on a Thurs or Fri next time, though... Saturday was BUSY!!! read more

I've always wanted to check out consignment stores and I'm glad that this was the first one I checked out. Although, my bar is set pretty high for all future cosignment stores now. What made this place great is that everything is really organized and although they have a large assortment of items, nothing looked out of place. They have a lot of antique items as well as more modern furniture. If you're new to Seattle and need furniture, this is definitely the place to check out. Some cool items I found: - Turtle/Elephant lamp - Antique stove/cabinet - Antique cigar stand - hanging lamps of all shapes and sizes read more

I found out about Ballard Consignment Store from friends and instagram. I have been looking for an olive green couch for about a year and had trouble finding one that I loved. Then one day I was looking at the instagram account for Ballard Consignment and saw an awesome olive green couch that was from the 1970s. I drove right to Ballard Consignment and after some negotiating the couch was mine. I also fell in love with about 20 other pieces in their store, they have a wide array of furniture that I think just about anyone could find something they like. I'll keep my eye out on instagram and continue to visit this location in the future. read more

I loved everything about this store. It was like a rabbit warren of treasures, on the floor, on the walls, hanging over rails, in every nook. Come prepared to browse and walk away with something you never knew you needed but now you can't live without. It's heavily tilted toward mid-century, but there are many more styles, too. Definitely consider getting the $99 membership for 10% off for a year, plus $25 off your delivery from Uff Da. There's limited free parking, which is a huge plus in Ballard these days. read more

Edit: I was able to connect with Victor (the owner) and he clearly understood the situation. To be fair, it sounds like he wasn't aware of my phone call with the store so he hadn't had a chance to make things right. He's sending out someone to fix the couch - which is all we could ask for! --- Old review: --- Pros: Lots of great selection you wouldn't find elsewhere. Cons: I would stay away from the new furniture that they sell. My brother and I both bought new couches from them (they were pitched as white label 'west elm' couches for a fraction of the price), and they both broke within two months. The leg broke off one, and the interior wood frame broke on the other. We both have families and do not abuse our furniture - in fact I don't have another piece of furniture that's broken in my house. I called in with the issue and learned that Ballard has a very conservative return policy. I've reached out to the owner and will update this review with his response. You get what you pay for, I guess. read more

Our new couch was delivered with damage that happened at the store. Pictures were sent to the owner who said he considered the couch to still be in excellent condition because the rips were on the backside. He said he would exchange the couch but we would be responsible for delivery cost back to the store and delivery cost of new couch home. He was very dismissive and unwilling to work with us or hear our concerns. This was a very bad experience! read more

I didn't know what to expect before I visited, and one of the most incredible things is just how spacious this store is. There are 3 floors and multiple rooms on each floor. And the furniture, rugs, etc. are CHEAP compared to what they could be charging for the vintage/midcentury type of stuff. Although I didn't leave with anything during my visit, I'll certainly return if I'm on the market for high quality furniture. read more

Casual shopping in Ballard on a Friday and stopped at Ballard Consignment to browse. Fun to have a look around! All sorts of solid decor and trendy furniture pieces. Fell in love with an area rug.

OMG I never knew this great place existed. Like it's totally got so much classic and new stuff. It looks way bigger then it looks form the outside. Ok like there's 2 entrances on 2 streets. 3 floors and so many totally cool small rooms filled with goodies. Like u know cubbie holes. Like I can't afford most of the stuff here. But like it's awesome to look around. They even sell those black airport seats, I had to take a pic, ok I sent my bf back into take the pics for me, don't judge. You can get like so lost in the store. Walk in and you wi like so understand. It's huge. read more

I love this place! Seriously can't get enough, so I follow them on social media. They have the nicest collection of mid century mod, art deco furniture and decor around. The shop is huge, three floors I believe and it is just very nicely laid out- I mean the amount of 'stuff' is just overwhelming but also exciting like if you keep going you might find them gem of a deal! I was most impressed with their furniture, the condition of every piece is impeccable and they are 100% priced to sell. The staff here is really nice, Walter helped us out a few weeks ago when my friend was on the hunt for he perfect couch. He offered the sample books and explained how if she wanted to order something they could accommodate that as well, which is great but these vintage couches- come on! If you can't find what you're looking for here in the way of vintage furniture you probably don't need it! read more

If you are looking at consigning furniture in the Seattle area, Ballard is unfortunately the only real game in town. Victor (the owner of Ballard) also owns/runs the only other option (a place called the Furniture Guy Consignment). Victor is very selective on what he will accept (which is a good business practice), which means that most items he agrees to cosign will sell fairly quickly. So far so good. However, after you cosign and your item sells, you may not get your money. Nobody will tell you what price it finally sold for and you need to call repeatedly to get your check (even though you have given them self-addressed and stamped envelopes). The whole operation seems very shady with no visibility or transparency on what happens after you consign. Good luck! read more

I had a weird interaction here. My bf and I were there looking for a few mid century pieces. We took our time and covered every room, floor, corner. A man, don't know if it was a manager or owner, approached us and instead of asking if we needed anything, says "Hey, you've been here for a while haven't you" looking at us weirdly. What am I supposed to answer and what does he mean/implying by that. I didn't see him approach any of the other person there, before or after. We had been there for like 30 minutes (normal, I think, for a big store with furniture); after that we quickly left to the farmers market. We are Caribbean Latino, brown and gay. My Microsoft manager boyfriend had a beanie on. And he went straight towards us with that weird comment. Alarm bells. F&@# this racist place. Sad because I liked this store.

Great finds at this consignment store that is a mix of consigned and excess inventory. Some of the MCM style furniture are actually new, from contemporary stores. I recognize some pieces and was able to snap up an Article Lubek Tuscan brown coffee table that was still on the website for $359, for only $100! It was brand new, no flaws, probably a returned item. If you're in market for furniture it's worth checking out. read more

The prices are reasonable, and it is conveniently located in Ballard. Definitely a fun place to check out and get your thrift on! read more
