What should you avoid when shopping for furniture? You should avoid cheap Chinese imports. You should avoid backorder slips.

If they tell you it's going to be 3 weeks, I would demand to get it today because 3 weeks turns into 6 weeks, 6 weeks turns into 9 weeks.

I would ask the company before I buy furniture, "Is it in stock? Can you deliver today?"
If they say, "We can't deliver today," I'd get in my car, I'd beeline to Gallery Furniture, buy that furniture, be at your home in 4 or 5 hours, live in the Houston area with FREE delivery today.
