Where is the best place to buy furniture in New Jersey? (Elizabeth: sales, how much)

[markoi21]

We're moving to a bigger house in September and we need to buy a lot of new furniture. What are the best stores to go to?

Depends on cost, quality and style.

The OP needs to tell us how much he plans to spend, how long he expects the furniture to last, and what style of furniture he is looking for.

Absent your location, here are some possibilities:

High End - Bograd's, Riverdale, NJ
Mid Market:

Absent your location, price point, and style preferences I would suggest the following:

High End: Bograds, Riverdale NJ
Mid-Market: Suburban Furniture, Succasunna, NJ (has frequent sales and promotions)
Big Box: Ikea, Paramus & Elizabeth, NJ (Elizabeth is in a development area that has a reduced sales tax of 3.5%, half the NJ rate of 7%)

I've also gotten lucky catching some great sales at Bloomingdales in Hackensack. ABC Carpet is in South Hackensack; many swear by them but I'm not a fan. Huffman Koos might also be a high end possibility but I always found the price/value ratio pretty bad. I would avoid Jennifer Convertibles, Bob's Discount Furniture and Raymour and Flanigan like the plague.

I bought a living room and dining room set 2 years ago from Ashley at a very reasonable price and have been very pleased with them.

Paramus, NJ have lots of furniture stores along Rt 4 and Rt 17. Worth to check out!

My friends went to Bograd's then did a little internet shopping on a few North Carolina furniture sites and found the exact same (as in manufacturer) family room sectional, master bedroom suite, huge dining room table with chairs, "library" table and chairs for thousands less.

Bograd's matched the prices rather than scrap the "deal".

Read online reviews of the different manufacturers and stores. We recently bought quite a bit of furniture and looked in many of the places mentioned here. We did very well at Suburban Furniture in Succasunna. We also bought something at Bob's in spite of the online reviews and I wish we had not made that purchase. Should have followed the reviews and my gut. Read the reviews on Ashley's.

This would be easy for them. Bograd's has always been a wonderful family business. I'm sure that they deal with many "high-maintenance"-type (fusspots), too.
