“I just received my furniture delivery and I am so impressed by their attention to detail and professionalism. Both delivery gentleman were very polite and caring. It was such a hot day, but they didn't let that dim their attitude. Would definitely work with them again.”

“My first time here and I LOVED it. I saw a write up in Only In Illinois a couple of days ago and just knew I had to make the over an hour drive to check it out. From the front of the building you can't see the 1800's house behind where you can explore every little nook and cranny to find that perfect something you can't live without. For me, I had just as much fun exploring the old house and looking at the old wood floors and peeling wall papers, if only these walls could talk....this old house has seen a lot. The couple that run it are very outgoing and I was offered something to drink and to sit and relax awhile and watch the world go by. I also fell in love with their little rescue dog, he came right up to me and I introduced myself and gave him a good back scratch before he went back to his spot in front of the fan to keep cool. If you like quirky places this is a must stop on so many levels. Don't forget parking is in the back behind the old house.”

Bob's Discount Furniture is growing while its competitors shrink. The Manchester, Connecticut-based retailer reported strong fourth-quarter results in its first earnings call since going public in February, with revenue climbing 8.2% to $648.8 million. Full-year net revenue jumped 16.8% to $2.4 billion, and net income rose to $121.7 million from $87.9 million the prior year. CEO Bill Barton told analysts the company plans to open about 20 new stores in 2026 and sees a path to more than 500 locations by 2035, roughly two and a half times its current 209-store footprint across 26 states.
