Mar 25, 2026 Report
Bruce, the sales person, is the absolute worst! I have NEVER been treated so horribly by a sales person ever. I ordered a bed frame on February 4 and it was delivered March 18. As soon as the delivery people brought it in the house, I recognized it was not the same color as what I had seen in the store. What was in the store was very light colored, and what was delivered was much darker. My husband called and reported it immediately. Bruce responded it was just a difference in lighting and blew us off.

We then went to the store in person where he was very defensive and deflective. Bruce continued to argue that our photos weren't valid as they weren't taken with an iPhone 17 Pro Max, the only camera he trusts. He said he would contact his rep to see what could be done. I went to the store on March 20th to ask what progress had been made. He gave excuses about reps not returning phone calls and "this could take weeks." I attempted to continue to talk with him and he walked away. RUDE!

My husband I went to the store today, March 25, to ask again about what progress was being made to resolve the issue. He said he had talked to a rep last Friday. I asked why he hadn't called us three days later to let us know and he became VERY angry, yelled at me repeatedly that he was doing me a favor. He said he didn't have time to call. That's ridiculous that there was never a moment in three business' days time that he couldn't have called.

The store is never busy. When I continued to tell him to stop yelling at me, then he stuck his finger in my face and kept shaking his finger at me, and continuing to yell. I told him to get his finger out of my face, that I wanted a full refund and to come take the bed back. He responded that he never wanted to see me in his store again. I replied, "as if I'd ever come back," and he responded with, "Good." He is refusing to credit my credit card, but says he will mail a check in a few days. I am very distrusting of that, so I will continue to monitor. There are no plans to pick up the bed that is the wrong stain color either. Avoid shopping at this store. You will be treated horribly.
