I moved to Blount County in 2005 and bought a living room set from this store. They were so incredibly accommodating to help me out then that I went back and bought more furniture over the years. Now, they are my go-to store for furniture. I go online for what I am looking for and then come to them with the details to see what they can do. The prices are usually right in line with online retailers (looking at you, Amazon) and I can have them deliver and set up the furniture in my house. Yes, I can work a drill and a wrench and I can move stuff myself, but it really is nice to have someone else do that for you as needed.
I think it's important to know that high-throughput retailers like Amazon are able to sell furniture much cheaper and that items made overseas are produced in countries with little to no labor regulations, so it is difficult for a US-based furniture maker to make a product for the same price. I won't go on and on about this situation but I would highly encourage people to consider this when you purchase large ticket items. I also understand people have budgetary limitations and sometimes it is more cost effective to buy and install yourself. It's just something to consider. Overall, if you have a set budget and know what you want, at least give them a try.
By the way, I always deal with Bryan as I really enjoy working with him but I also have worked with other employees there and have never been disappointed. East Tennessee service for the win.
I would always rather support my local companies and their employees, whenever economically feasible. That's just my personal preference. These folks will find you what you want, get as close as they can to online prices, and work with you while employing good folks in your community to get it done. The ultimate decision is up to you depending on your specific situation, but I would encourage consumers to give them a chance to match your numbers whenever possible.

Read moreWhat a resource for Blount County! This was our first stop and then after shopping Knoxville we came back to purchase two recliners. Donna(?) was chill and worked with us AND she made the delivery happen just days before Easter! CAN'T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THE DELIVERY GUYS!! Tim and Tyler (T 2) we're absolutely courteous and very careful with our purchase. They were pleasant and a joy to talk to. This was in stark contrast to another furniture company that made a delivery to our house the day before. You could tell those delivery guys were on a hot schedule and they handled our purchases like refuse collectors. Rough, and without due care. Not pleasant either. The customer has NOTHING to do with your work schedule or pay. Oh, and the audacity... These man-handlers had 'tips appreciated' on the...
Read moreWe just moved to Tennessee from Wisconsin and had sold all our furniture before leaving. We wanted a nice chair that will last awhile and fit in any decor in the future as we are currently renting but are house hunting. Not knowing much about the area, we found Furniture Discount Warehouse online and decided to check it out.
Not once did we feel pressured and were given all the time we needed to walk around and "test drive" every single chair. The selection was good and the chair we picked out was in stock in the warehouse which is hard to find these days.
So excited to have a piece of furniture without waiting weeks or even months! Chad was a pleasure to do business with and we will not only recommend his store we will be back when we need...
