Mr.Heartle
I plan on purchasing a bedroom set and I wanted to know if they set it up for me or just deliver..
Answer
Well it all depends on the delivery crew you get. I often have to go out on service calls for retailers because the drivers were in too much of a hurry to spend an extra 5-10 minutes tightening something or setting something up. The other problem that is common is that the delivery team will deliver the furniture but not have all the necessary hardware (screws, bolts, etc) to complete the assembly and then you end up waiting for parts to be sent and then have the furniture assembled. With a bedroom set it is common to be missing mirror brackets if you have a dresser that is supposed to have the mirror sitting on the dresser itself.
Hopefully you will not have any issues but just be aware that it is more uncommon now to NOT have any issues from delivery of furniture no matter whom you buy it from.

Websites for bedroom furniture?

I want new bedroom furniture. I like dark colors, modern, simple, teenager style, and comfortable. Do you know any websites where they might sell furniture like this. It doesn't have to be everything I listed, but pretty close. I'd also like it if the website had a desk that matches the bedroom set. Nothing too pricey (under $2,500) and pretty good quality. Thank You!
Also, if you know a website where I can find accessories (lamps, sheets, ect.), then pleas list! Thanks again.
Answer
There are lots of websites with lots of product. The problem is the price doesn't always match the quality. If you plan on only keeping your furniture for 1 to 5 years and treat your furniture with kid gloves Ikea may be a good choice, however, ask anyone that has had Ikea furniture for a while or attempted to move it. It tends to auto destruct upon moving. Those cam lock type assembly hardware just don't like to be moved. What makes it fairly inexpensive is what makes it poor quality. The whole thing is about freight and warehouse space. This should NOT YOUR PROBLEM. In my humble opinion, virtually all assemble yourself furniture is inferior quality mostly made of particleboard filled with formaldehyde. My family and I have been in the furniture business both manufacturing and retailing for over 60 years. Our retail store went on line almost 20 years ago. I understand both manufacturing and retailing. I sell what I make every day of the week in my store. Consider checking out a local store with less than 5 to 10 stores. in my experience the larger the chain, the poorer the quality and service. Also, in this difficult housing market, many both large and small stores are struggling and over 20,000 retail furniture stores both large and small have gone out of in business in the last 18 months. PAY BY CREDIT CARD for a little protection. I have noticed fairly good quality furniture in Costco. In the STORE not on line. It is very seasonal for them and the selection is very limited but well priced and good quality. Also please check out our website and blog @ www.barnfurniture.com
