The wife and I moved from a three bedroom townhouse to a large home and needed to fill some space with furniture. We went to a brand new store in Salem, NH, called Bobs Furniture. Their second store opened days before and we heard good things. This was 2001. What a mistake!
We didn't know much about furniture. We end up spending several thousand dollars for junk, basically cord wood. After a year, everything was broken except for a sleeper couch, which wouldn't pull out anymore and lasted only six months longer. We wasted so much money on the cheap furniture. They ended up coming out to our home three times to fix things that kept on breaking.
Since then, we shop at Jordans, which is the anti-Bob. Nothing but quality from Jordans and Bernie/Phyls. The Jordans staff makes fun of Bobs, stating that they do indeed sell cord wood. You DO get what you pay for. If you are desperate, go to Bobs. If you want quality that lasts years, go elsewhere. Nothing but cheap junk is sold by Bobs. You can tell by their ad campaigns by what type of seller they are attracting. Don't make the mistake and go there. Buy quality or you will be sorry immediately.
