Well lets start from the Top. Bought a sectional reclining couch for $2000 from Marksons. Waited two weeks for delivery. At delivery it was noted that the fabric on one piece of furniture was scuffed and also had a tag on the top side of the cushion underneath the fabric , so eveytime you sat down it sounded like you were sitting on news paper. The other piece the framing for the backrest was cracked from piss poor craftsmanahip.

CHANGING MY REVIEW.If I could give this store less than one star I would. They sent me a dresser that was not assembled correctly. I returned it and they refused to refund my money. DO NOT BUY ONLINE FROM THIS PLACE!

I will never go back to the store again. I wasted an hour and a half picking out a set went to the counter purchased it got approved only an hour later to have them call me and tell them that they’re not able to sell me the set because somebody mispriced it. Instead of giving it to me anyways because it was their mistake they were OK with me just canceling the order. The worst customer service in the worst experience I ever had and I will never go back to them

We're terribly sorry that this happened. We price everything by hand, so we can research and be sure we're the best price around. The set you were interested in sells for nearly a thousand dollars more at other stores. While we understand … More

We had to wait way longer than we were supposed to for our furniture. Now I found out that over 1200.00 was added to our loan balance after only 1 month of our buy out date. I’m going to seek help into finding out if I can get help …

We're all very sorry to hear this. We take our customer service very seriously, and strive for 100% customer satisfaction. We agree that the server taking longer than the agreed-upon time frame became unacceptable, but unfortunately cannot control the factory, nor their shipping time frames.

What satisfied customers point to

The same method, applied to the four and five star reviews. Most movers are praised for the same handful of things, so what is missing here is often as telling as what is present.

Outstanding Personal and Professional Assistance, not pushed while looking over several options. Very helpful in deciding on our selection w/ multiple ideas and styles. They have Employees that deliver the items/furniture and they were truly careful and conscientious while moving around the house. Very polite employee experience.

5-star Google reviewCarol D.Edited a week ago
I felt no pressure in this store and the woman who waited on me was exceptional. She answered all my questions thoroughly and when I made the decision to buy a couch, one that I have not had to make for decades, I felt secure in my choice. And, oh yes, the prices were very good. I would definitely go back there again if I needed to buy more furniture. And I have already told many of my friends about the store.

We have been getting furniture from Markson's for years. The staff is always knowledgeable and helpful, and most importantly, not pushy. Delivery was also seamless and easy. Very friendly, professional and did a great job installing! Highly recommend!
