| - With two futon stores almost side by side, it's inevitable that you'll have to compare the two. In the city, I don't even know where else to go for a good quality, wooden frame futon (other than Ikea). Price points are almost the same (from $500-800 for the entire set).
Here you can mix and match frames, mattresses and then pick your cover. So go in, with an idea of what kind of frame you want. It ranges from ones that can lounge, turns into a single or double bed, can be three seater sofa or love seat etc. Then you'll pick your mattress firmness, and then, they will charge you an extra $40-50 for a cover.
There's something about this store, that is a little dingy and old fashioned. We got a quote from them and went next door. Due to a boxing day sale with a free cover, they ended up being cheaper - otherwise they are comparable. But next door is brighter, bigger store, and has lots more variety. I think the atmosphere plays a huge role in the shopping experience.
The staff was knowledgeable and patient, and was okay with us getting a price match next door, I guess it's expected.
