Get Comfy: Wholesale Furniture Brokers #Giveaway

December 12, 2013 By Lena

Note: The following giveaway is open to Canadians only.

Remember a few days ago when I promised a very special giveaway? I’m ba-ack!

Many of y’all had the chance to read about my Man Cave’s swanky new sectional, courtesy of Wholesale Furniture Brokers Canada. For all those new to furniture shopping online, I discussed the process, what you can expect, and how thrilled I am with the Toronto Tufted Black Leather Corner Sectional Sofa by True Contemporary we selected.

I also alluded to Wholesale Furniture Broker’s enviable selection online, and today, I’m here to show you some of my favourite picks!

Three Clicks to a New Couch

December 9, 2013 By Lena

Okay, perhaps I’m oversimplifying the process. But truly, that’s how easy it was to get a brand new leather sectional in my basement, and overall, we are thrilled with the results.

A couple of weeks ago, I shared with y’all news that I had the opportunity to receive a brand new sectional from Wholesale Furniture Brokers, with the promise that I’d review their ordering process, in addition to the quality, value and selection of their furniture. Well, I’ve already touched on the incredible selection, value and ease – and today, I’d love to chat about everything that went down behind the scenes to get the couch into our Man Cave.

Now even though I’ve always touted the virtues of online shopping, at the eleventh hour, I chickened out and placed my order by calling their Sales team. And to tell the truth, I’m glad I did! The representative was friendly, knowledgeable and literally held my hand from start to finish, letting me know what to expect (more on that later) and how to reach out if I needed assistance or clarity.

(When I complimented her on her thoroughness, she informed me that had I ordered online, I would’ve been privy to all the information she was sharing, so she was simply doing her part to ensure I had everything I needed.)

Since the sectional we had selected – the Toronto Tufted Black Leather Corner Sectional Sofa by True Contemporary – was considered a “Quick Ship Canada” item, I knew that it would leave the warehouse in 1 – 3 business days with an estimated delivery of 1 – 17 business days. So, we waited.

During the entire shipping process, I received e-mail updates from Wholesale Furniture Brokers to inform me of the location and status of my shipment. And when it appeared that the sectional was right around the corner, I received a phone call to remind me about the delivery, and that one of their delivery partners would contact me directly to arrange a drop-off. Completely smooth sailing, friends!…

Online Furniture Shopping for the Modern Gal

November 24, 2013 By Lena

I consider myself to be a pretty modern gal. I mean really, I’m down with the times, aren’t I? I read my books on an electronic device, I let my husband do the laundry, and I always, always tout the virtues of online shopping.

And if there’s one thing I love doing, it’s online shopping.

I’ve purchased clothing and electronics and movies online. I’ve stockpiled makeup, toys and bath products too. Heck, I just purchased a new license plate sticker online, something that will forever end the dreaded lineup at the MTO. Truth: if I can put it in a virtual cart, I will.

But then, something happened. I was approached by Wholesale Furniture Brokers to check out their online inventory, with an offer to review their ordering process, in addition to the quality, value and selection of their furniture.

In short, my upcoming #ProjectManCave was about to get a couch makeover, too.

Of course I agreed. Who wouldn’t jump at the chance to receive a brand new sofa or sectional? Yet suddenly, I was confronted by a very unsettling thought. And for a shopaholic like me, it befuddled me.

Would I ever buy my furniture online?

In that moment, I felt like a fraud. Because for all the times I pushed the benefits of online shopping, I realized that I’ve never considered buying furniture online. Perhaps it’s the daunting task of selecting an item without seeing it before your eyes. Or the commitment that comes with large investments like appliances or furniture. And finally, who wants to deal with astronomical shipping costs, and in the case of cross-border furniture shopping, duties? It’s enough to scare anyone away. But then I realized that with the right research and knowledge, there are so many benefits to sourcing furniture through a reputable online retailer such as Wholesale Furniture Brokers.

Let’s talk about the selection process, for instance. Well, we all know how easy it is to shop online. But even I was surprised with the sheer level of detail that was shared for each item on the website. For example, when narrowing down a sectional for our #ProjectManCave, the Wholesale Furniture Brokers website offered everything from materials and construction to detailed dimensions and in some cases, assembly videos available right on the site. And then, to further assist with my purchase decision, I could view photos from customers who have the actual product in their homes, so I could compare lighting, decor schemes and how the furniture works in a family room vs. a showroom.

Right away, selecting the perfect item for our basement wasn’t nearly as daunting as I thought it would be. Since we have a small television viewing area, I had to keep things pretty compact. Hence, we settled on this Toronto Tufted Black Leather Corner Sectional Sofa by True Contemporary.

(If you caught a peek of my #ProjectManCave transformation, you may have spotted the sectional here.)

Of course, in addition to the generous selection, there’s another key reason to buy furniture online – the prices! Even though my particular piece is a review item, you just know I spent a lot of time cruising the site for deals and great prices. Here’s what Wholesale Furniture Brokers has to say about their competitive pricing:

“We have been importing containers of product directly to our Canadian warehouses to offer lower prices and shorter shipping times. Canadian online shoppers are currently forced to look across the border to shop for better prices. We’ve invested in stock to match US prices despite higher duties and transportation costs in Canada. Our prices are becoming more competitive and we’re able to offer shorter lead times so we can give more value to our Canadian customers,” says Sergei Tashlikowich, Wholesale Furniture Brokers’ CEO.
