This is a chain furniture and appliances store. It started in the Hamilton area in the 1920's. This…read morenew St. Catharines location soft-opened on 2024-05-03 and grand-opened on 2024-08-02. During the grand opening period, there are free hotdogs and pop/water, catered by Gerard The Hot Dog Man. The hotdog was delicious. All their stores have the same big format, possibly bigger than a large Canadian Tire. There is a big retail store which houses their living room furniture, sleep furniture, and appliances (eg. kitchen), and electronics (eg. exercise machines, massage chairs). They also have furniture that can fit in small apartments/condos. They also have free self-serve hot drinks machine and freshly made popcorn. The popcorn starts 1 hour before the store opening to make the scent of popcorn linger throughout the entire store. There is also a children's playground area to keep them busy while the potential purchases can concentrate on buying (great strategy!). At the other end of the store, there is their outlet store. When discontinuing a product, it goes to this side of the store. All products there are new, but also discounted. The outlet store has a 0% interest 60-month payment plan. The nice thing about this chain is that everyone you deal with is their employee, not any third party, from sales, customer service, to delivery. The sales staff work on commission. You can purchase from any store and have it delivered or picked up from any of their stores. The sales staff are very courteous and pleasant. There store is wheelchair accessible. There are separate male/female/family washrooms, and all of them are wheelchair accessible. There is free parking in their large private parking lot. Review 2024-150

I've not experienced ANY ISSUES with Better Shade whatsoever…read more Their sales rep John was extremely helpful, provided invaluable input, didn't try to 'upsell' and was a complete professional throughout the process. I felt absolutely no pressure whatsoever. But here's the kicker...... I initially had the Hunter Douglas rep through Costco give me an estimate. This will be hard to believe.......THE COST FOR SIMILAR SHADES (although not exact) was ENORMOUS! The delivery and installation was promised in than 3 weeks.......it was installed in less. The company manufactures your shades on site in St. Catharines. The installation by Jason was quick, easy and perfectly done. I'm very pleased with everything. As I said, it ain't an exact 'Apples to Apples' comparison but it is easily an 'Apples to Oranges' comparison and for me.......I LOVE ORANGES!

She was patient, walked us through the entire showroom multiple times, provided us with alternatives if something wasn't on display in store, looked up specs and helped us make decisions on fabrics and finishes. From the first time we entered the store, right through to delivery we were impressed with the friendliness, flexibility and professionalism of the staff. We are so pleased with our choice and couldn't be happier with the quality, look and feel of our new pieces.

They did not email. I am worried I will never get my refund and they are going to go bankrupt like bad boy and leave all their customers with no money or what they ordered. This is why IKEA is so successful. Leon's is all smiles until they get your money. Be very careful. Now I have to do a chargeback so they do not leave me with nothing.
