No guidance at all. I gave him a proposed budget (now mind you I have NO experience with carpeting stairways) but instead of educating me, he laughed at me and said labor alone would be double my budget.

Purchased my sons furniture from here last year (2011), a Broyhill set. It was a few days late, no…read morebig deal as I was still painting his room. This year we purchased my daughters set, a Legacy Classic set. We were approved for financing for 12 months no interest. They said the set would take about 2 1/2 weeks, which today is that day. I called and they said it hadn't arrived and would call the manufacturer and call me back. Now, I know this stuff is shipped from the Carolina's, so I'm not holding them to the exact day. However, I should be kept in the loop. Now, the part that's the kicker: I found the exact set and Raymour & Flaniggan. They wanted $800 MORE for the same set. I'm not going into a review of R&F, however, that's ridiculous. After getting my price from Michael, I told him he was $800 cheaper and he stated certain pieces he carries he can sell less the R&F, and some pieces he sells higher, depends on how often he does business with them. Makes sense and that's fair. I'm glad we chose to go here again. How could you be upset at saving $800.00? If anything changes with me not being in the loop of the delivery date, I will re-post. **Update 2/23/13*** Called on Thur, 2/14 for an update. Was told the manufacturer was out of stock on a few items (really?) and it wouldn't be shipping until 2/15 or 2/19 because of the holiday, and should be here by 2/22 the latest. Here we are, 2/23 and was not told it wouldn't be here until late next week. This happened when we ordered my sons furniture and the MAIN reason I went back is because he was $800 cheaper and I'd rather spend my money at a mom & pop business. **Update 2/27/13** Received the bedroom set today and couldn't be happier. My daughter LOVES her big girl bed. The pieces all arrived with no damage and assembled on site by the delivery men. We couldn't be happier with the product. **Update 3/7/13** Received a pleasant phone call today from Michael (the owner) regarding my review on Yelp. He wanted to know about my experience after reading this review. I explained to him my gripe with the order was mainly with the shipping/delivery date. He kindly explained to me that they have really no control over when the manufacturer ships the merchandise and the date provided is just an estimate. I proceeded to explain that I was aware of this but that my issue was no follow up phone call about the expected delay. He agreed and stated he understood my opinion. I stated to him that at the end of the day, my wife and I were extremely happy with the price and the furniture itself. I informed him I would definitely come back in the future. The whole phone call lasted approximately 15 minutes. So, with that said, I decided to edit my review for the following reasons: -I get the whole delay thing. Even though this was MY order and I was waiting on the delivery, I get the business aspect where they probably have dozens of orders going on simultaneously. To call vendors each day on the whereabouts of merchandise is probably next to impossible. -The fact that Michael took the time to call me about this review tells me a few things: He cares about his business. Two, he takes the time to investigate what others are reviewing about his business. Three, he cares enough to call a reviewer to make things right and better any future experiences. Overall, I believe this reaction is what this site is all about. I wish more merchants reviewed this site and took action they way Michael did. A very positive experience and again, I would definitely go back. For that, I am adding an additional star.

Stay far away from them as your situation could end up similar to mine, since they don't really care about their customers!!!! We spent over $13,000 on custom furniture and two in stock items for various rooms in our house. Michael told us the bedroom set would take 8 weeks. I called the manufacturer, was told production was running 12 weeks plus 2 to 4 weeks for delivery. Michael had to know this when we ordered! We had the two in stock items delivered, a sofa and a recliner. The sofa three seat cushions were of varying firmness, Michael agreed to replace them. Michael ignored my requests for updates. 10 weeks after we purchased the sofa, the seat cushion replacements arrived. Good customer service would take cushions from stock in their warehouse to resolve this faster. The bedroom set, along with two cocktail tables and one side table were delivered. The finish on one table was incorrect as per our order and delivery was refused. Our bed frame of the bedroom set is not on the truck, paperwork has the item yellowed out. Never got a call from the store owners to apologize or discuss what's next. I texted Michael, said he would call me the next day - did not happen. I left a VM on his phone, still no response. A few days later he contacted me after I suggested that we cancel our order. Michael said that the manufacturers of both furniture pieces were working to replace the items and would take care of them immediately (whatever that meant). 6 weeks later, the (new) replacement footboard the headboard, and two side rails were delivered. The bed except for the (replaced) footboard are not the same color as the rest of the bedroom furniture set. I sent pictures to Michael, 2 weeks later I called for a status, he mentioned that the manufacturer would like a drawer from the nightstand to ensure a color match. I rushed the drawer over to his store the same day. He originally told me that he could pick it up the next week when they deliver a different piece of furniture. Well, I am glad I dropped the drawer off since the other delivery wasn't for another 3 weeks. Bed delivered, after waiting 11 weeks for the headboard and two side rails that are the correct color and the nightstand drawer, in total 9 months since order date!
