    Spencer Q.

    A very good sized showroom with many pieces you can test out. Most importantly they have a parking lot.

    emerson line in the new 2025 oak with rye stain...
    Hen A.

    spent many weekends in sf shopping to furnish a house from nothing...room & board in sf is quite large and always a pleasant experience...the staff are knowledgeable and quite professional...helpful when needed, but always giving you space to freely browse without interruption...when you are not sure, the staff encourages you to order and simply return if you don't like it even for customized orders...bought multiple pieces from beds and dressers to tables, benches and more...the delivery estimates were fairly accurate and notifications to schedule delivery were clear and easy...pay half for all orders and pay remaining balance when scheduling delivery or pick up...they do allow pick up from the brisbane room & board warehouse to avoid shipping charges...large items were ordered for white glove delivery service, and random smaller items were ordered throughout the weeks for pick up...returning items we didn't like was easy and refunded fully...did have one damage issue, but will be replaced in a few months while we temporarily use the damaged piece...each piece of furniture is quite heavy from use of solid wood...metal furniture is also quite heavy duty with thick metal...don't think there is ever a sale...actually makes it easy by not needing to wait for a one...if you like something, you just buy it...for an idea to pricing...an emerson bed frame was about $2,100, large dresser with 8 drawers roughly $2,500, large nightstand about $1,200...metal bench was about a $1,000...prices are rounded estimates after tax...delivery for a bed and large dresser with set up was about $159...other various pieces purchased, and quality and experience has been positive...

    Researching a new sofa
    Jennifer O.

    First impressions are excellent: Beautiful showroom with some items having a mid-century modern feel. We were greeted as soon as we walked in. I sat on a few sofas, very comfortable and solid. A salesperson gladly gave me a catalog and his business card. He pointed to all the fabrics as "the fun part" and I shared, "And this is where my anxiety spikes, too many options!" He chuckled and assured "This is where we come in to help you." Anything on the showroom floor they have in stock and can be delivered in a week. Special orders are now 8-9 weeks out which seems pretty speedy. I'm looking but trying to accelerate my decision-making: My sofa frame seems damaged, it's been almost 10 years, time to replace.

    We had an excellent experience with Jason at Room & Board. We came in really undecided about what we wanted and Jason patiently showed us different options over two visits. He also did some renderings for us which helped us to visualize what different pieces might looks like in our space. We love the bookcases and media center that we finally picked - they make our living room seem light, inviting, and modern in a warm way. I saw there were some negative reviews here. I think the key is to find the right designer and to also know that this is higher end furniture store. These pieces seem timeless to us and we expect they will still be gorgeous and fit our aesthetic for decades to come.

    Metro 2-seater couch
    Jennifer S.

    Just like with everything these days, Ben and I were super short on time but had been putting off a visit to Room & Board for a week already! We decided to stop in with only 45 minutes to spare and were delighted to be introduced to Mark! We needed a sectional and had an idea of what we wanted from shopping R&B online - so the only things we thought we had to do was 1. Sit on the actual couch to see how it felt, and 2. pick the material for it. We had the room dimensions measured and sectional couch measurement ranges for our space. Mark was absolutely phenomenal. He showed us a few different options and gave us great insight on what else to consider. He let us try out the different models new vs. broken in, recommended what to look for with material, and most importantly , he talked Ben out of buying a green couch and going with the grey color I originally selected (but Ben had called boring!). lolol! We left feeling so taken care of and happy with our choice! Definitely recommend going online and configuring the couch yourself if you have the dimensions and if you're going with a custom couch. We absolutely cannot wait to get ours in May!! Big and huge thank you so much to Mark as well!

    Poorly made fire pit

    We have done a ton of business with Room and board and over the years. We've experienced a good number of defects with their products(this time a fire pit) . There was a time when they stood behind them however, recently they have found a way of having very little accountability for their quality. we will look elsewhere in the future. Unfortunate as we have been customers for a long time.

The owners are nice during the buying process - if you're looking to use your own transportation they might not have the piece you want wrapped up and you end up taking one off the floor. The after sale process could be a little bit better and if they facilitated folks that use their own transportation they could have more returning customers in my opinion. All in all, worth checking out, you might find something you really like at a great price - just be prepared to take process into your own hands once you're all paid up.

If you want furniture that is higher quality than Ikea and don't want to wait 2-6 months for delivery, than look no further. 9th street designer clearance carries a LOT of furniture, like this place is really huge. Even if you don't buy anything, you'll have some fun browsing the many unique pieces. I gotta admit, I was skeptical coming in because my tastes are very specific. I wasn't sure they would carry any items that I'd be interested in aka mid century modern/scandanavian furniture in neutral colors. But alas, they had some! We were able to walk away with a nice couch and coffee table, delivered that same night! Mike was very helpful in explaining some of the furniture and the process of buying. Pro tip: There is a lot of street parking right out front but it is metered. But if you come on sundays or any day after 6pm, it is free. Also, this store does not take credit card or do any payment plans. You have to pay with cash, check, or wire transfer.

It was the first, & last piece I will ever purchase from your organization. And yet you still send me your catalogue like it's 1982. In the end - know this: everything that glitters isn't gold. In fact, at Roche Bobois it's probably particle board. They don't give a crap about their sales team, as you clearly see it took them nearly a DECADE to respond. And not an apology in sight. AVOID this business and spend your money on QUALITY goods at a company who actually cares AFTER you tap your credit card!!

It's only about 50,000 sq ft which is hardly a fraction of the East Palo Alto store (83% less space), so they have almost zero inventory in stock. It's a museum of stuff you can't actually buy today because there is no warehouse. If you want "Click & Collect," forget it...there's no loading zone and the staff won't help you get anything to the curb anyway. The checkout situation is a total mess. Usually only one cashier for the whole building, and you're forced into the "Self-Checkout Hunger Games." To make it worse, their card readers are rigged to force you to enter a PIN. I couldn't run my debit card as credit to protect my info, which is a huge security joke in a crowded downtown store where people are hovering right behind you. The food situation is just as bad. It's a tiny "deli" hallway, not a real restaurant. They even disappeared from the Too Good To Go app because their quality ratings were so bottom of the barrel compared to the Emeryville & E. Palo Alto locations, which are still on the app. Even the return policy is a trap. They often refuse refunds on larger items even if you ordered them at this specific spot, telling you to drive all the way to the East Bay or Palo Alto. Between the "Market Street Trap" (no private cars allowed) and the fragile "honeycomb" cardboard furniture that sags under a single book, there is zero reason to shop here. Especially now that they've jacked up prices on things like kitchen cabinets by nearly 75% over the last few years. Just drive to a real furniture store save yourself the headache in the long run.
