“I love shopping at Partager! There is something for everyone on my list and they gift wrap! The staff is friendly and helpful! The new addition of grab and go food with the Culinary Collective by Southern Way has also been a huge hit in my home! So glad we have a special place like this in Columbia that supports artist!”
“Jerilyn was awesome with helping me with the purchase of my couch. She’s a no nonsense sales representative and I like her honesty and attention to detail.”
“Scott was super helpful in getting a big boy bed for my son! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. He took the time to answer all of our questions and helped us find the perfect bed. We really appreciate his great customer service and would definitely recommend working with Scott!”
“Had a great customer service experience with Ms. Victoria. She was knowledgeable of the products shown and was able to be resourceful finding prices by SKU when needed. Great personality and customer service skills, thanks again.”
“It has been a while since I visited this store but when I did shop here it was a wonderful experience. They have the cutest inventory and the staff was extremely helpful. If you are looking for a unique gift you will probably find it here.”
“"Overwhelm" arrived while I was downsizing with one hand and hauling stuff in from a family home with the other. Boxes, furniture, stuff was everywhere! Decades of it. I decided to free myself by clearing out and transforming the new smaller space. It was scary. The search began for the right person to accomplish the goal of intentionally creating a haven. And, helping me let go of the physical stuff. Upon meeting Kim Benson, I took an immediate like to her. Kim accepted the organize and re-create challenge. The blues and greens on the walls came from a favorite rock. My heart's desire, deep drawers in the bathroom, magically blended in without construction. Ambient light. The eyesore of a fireplace's makeover is nothing short of amazing. There's a Rod Stewart trading card. The house is easy to keep straight. Kim decoupaged quotes inside the night table drawer. The pottery collection has never looked so beautiful. Kim found, and repaired, a Japanese goddess mask. Shelving units were added to closets. You get the idea. It was a huge transformation. You'll like Kim, too.”
“We had a great experience with Tonya at the Rooms to go on Harbison Blvd. She helped us for 2 different days as we were deciding on a living room set. She was very patient and allowed us to shop around on our on until we had questions. She was very knowledgeable and made our experience a great one. I would definitely want to work with her again for any future purchases.”
“Ellen and team are as lovely as their arrangements. It’s always a beautiful feeling coming out of the shop with gorgeous blooms and wonderful gift items. Service is always top notch and beyond excellent. ?”
“AMAZING experience at Havertys, thanks to Allan and Mercedes! After researching practically every furniture store in the Columbia area, it was clear that Haverty’s was in a class of its own. Allan was wonderful to work with — knowledgeable, patient, attentive, and genuinely interested in helping us find the right pieces for our home. From our stylish and comfortable living room furniture to our beautiful bedroom set, Allan made the entire experience enjoyable and completely stress-free. Delivery was perfect too! We also want to give a special shout-out to Mercedes, the Havertys designer. Her expertise, eye for design, and thoughtful recommendations were incredibly valuable and helped us pull everything together beautifully. The way Allan and Mercedes worked together was truly impressive — they made a great team and made us feel confident in every decision. It was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish, and we wholeheartedly recommend Allan and Mercedes! Oh, and we can’t forget, John, such a wonderful manager! Many thanks to you all for being such a blessing to us!”
“Noah, Joy and Darrell went above and beyond to take care of me. I am a designer/contractor who goes out of my way to only use Floor and Decor for my tile and they make it easy. A+ /5*”
“This place is amazing! So many good finds for decor items, unique furniture, and even flooring, cabinets, and countertops! The beautiful art work keeps me coming back and the prices aren't too bad either. Love this store! Very friendly and helpful staff as well. :)”
“Went to Lowe's first to look for fall decorations, pretty expensive, so we cruised over to Hobby Lobby and found everything for a third of the price. Way more options, too.”
“Fantastic selection of housewares, gifts, linens, sleepwear and more! The holiday selection is amazing, something for everybody. The staff is so accommodating and helpful.”
“Brandon was excellent at getting us comfortable and showing us all the benefits of a sleep number. We felt heard and that all of our questions were being answered honestly. Go see Brandon!”
“Pretty good selection of a mix of new and older antiques. Prices can be a little bit on the high side. Half of the building is an auction house. No air conditioning in the summer but they did have a lot of fans running. Good size parking lot.”
“My favorite store in Columbia. The clothing and home decor are beautiful and unique. The candles are amazing. You never know what unique finds you will come across in this store. I love the fact that they are on trend, but also offer classic, tried, and trusted styles. The staff is warm, welcoming, and super helpful. Highly recommended!”
“Smells sooooooo good! I really enjoy shopping here. If they don't have what you need in-store, trust me they can have it shipped to you. I tend to run into issues with items I would like with our last name initial "O". Got a little Coffee Bar thing going on. Still in progress and far from done, however I found these cute Canisters and Gold Spoons.”
“They had some really good furniture in there. They had a real pretty tree table in there but it was sold. There was also some good bargains on clothes, kitchen, bath. That we looked at.”
“I have used Thomas for several years and have always come out very pleased with the quality of work and his problem solving skills . He is always reasonable with his prices and timely with repairs. My friends and I all highly recommend him.”
“Tons of fun stuff, useful stuff, great prices. Quick n easy self-checkout. Prices rival Dollar Tree and you will save time here as opposed to standing in a line. Employees are very helpful and friendly.”
“Bob was extremely informative about the various mattress options available. He very patiently took his time to allow us to experience each of the mattress options we were considering, pointing out the attributes of each. He was not at all pushy or overbearing as some sales people can be, which we appreciated. His presentation was so compelling that we decided to purchase a mattress for two different beds! I would recommend visiting him if you have any mattress needs.”
“Really good store-wide sale going on right now...lots of fall items 50%off. Kirkland's is another one of my fav go-to places when shopping home decor. They have a nice selection of candles, wall pic, pillows, throws, accent pieces as well as smalll furniture pieces...Oh, have also started to display the Christmas? items and the store smells so delicious from the moment you walk through the door.”
“Purchased a fixture from the location and the globe was broken upon installation. They offered to replace the globe for no charge even though it was my fault that it cracked. After 3 months I dropped by to check on the status. Instead of continuing to battle w the company to get the glass, they took a globe from the same fixture in the showroom, boxed it up and gave it to me! Truly appreciate this kind of customer service.”
“Ivy House was always a favorite to visit when I came from out of state. I always find something unique to purchase. I always remember the lady at the front desk as being so very kind and helpful! I am excited about the upcoming vendor market next weekend!”
“Manager was informed & helpful. Did not have the item I wanted in stock, but told me approximately when it would come in & showed me the on her phone what the product's new logo will look like.”
“I recently visited Ethan Allen and had the pleasure of being assisted by Brian. Even though the store’s furniture was a bit outside of my price range, Brian was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive. He took the time to listen to my needs, offered helpful design advice, and treated me with genuine respect — never making me feel rushed or pressured to buy. His warm personality and exceptional customer service made the entire experience enjoyable. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about helping customers, ask for Brian!”
“I had a great experience at Ashley Furniture and that was 100% due to my sales rep, Lance. He was professional, courteous, and knowledgeable about all the furniture products sold at Ashley Furniture! Thank you Lance for all your help! I will most definitely recommend Ashley Furniture and Lance to all my friends! Thank you so much!”
“Had such a fun time. A group of 14 of us descended on this little shop and had a blast designing our jewelry. The staff were super attentive and helpful, and had set out wine and cookies for us. Fantastic time”
“I hardly ever shop at Urban Outfitters but I will definitely be coming back more often! My shopping experience yesterday was made an absolute delight by the manager Justin. He was so incredibly helpful, funny and his customer service skills were top tier. I'm usually not a big fan of shopping in person or trying on clothes, but he was able to change my whole perspective! Highly recommend Urban Outfitters now, ask for Justin!”
Two familiar names now share one storefront. Bed Bath & Beyond and The Container Store opened their first co-branded location in Fort Worth, Texas, on May 16, and the concept is spreading to nearly two dozen stores in what the company calls phase one.
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.
