I was in need of a Credenza/Entertainment Center. I had been scouring the internet looking for one in my desired dimensions, as well as color finish. That's when I came across Express Furniture in Akron , Ohio. Express Furniture was listing it at $100 cheaper than the next guy, so I called the number, and Mike answered the phone. Come to find out that Mike is the stores owner, and we spent at least 15 minutes, maybe more, talking. Come to find out that he has family in Southern California where I reside. Never less, I purchased the credenza thru Express Furniture, and Mike guaranteed me that it would be properly protected for shipment, which was reassuring after reading about other reviews on the woes of shipping furniture. Mike even sent me the assembly instructions in advance, so I knew what needed to get me prepared. I am a small business owner, such as Mike at Express Furniture is. I always try to give my business to the smaller guys first, and in my case, it was also financially cheaper. Thanx again Express Furniture in Akron, Oh, hope we do business again. Troy W read more
