Weekends Only Furniture & Mattress

Over the past year I have been looking for a few new furniture pieces and even though there are so many furniture stores I always end up at Weekends Only. Not only have I been satisfied with the customer services, but I am also satisfied with the price.
Over the summer my fiancé and I were looking for a new dining room set. When we arrived we were greeted immediately. What I liked about it was that we were greeted, but not harassed. We were given space to look around and browse and then we knew who to ask for help when we needed it. By the time we made our way to the kitchen area I saw a set I really liked and wanted to get more information on it. I was able to track down Ken and ask questions. He was eager to talk to us, but wasn’t trying to «hard sell». After going through options and learning about the price and warranty it was easy to make the decision to purchase it. Ken wrote up our sales slip and explained the process for delivery. It was painless and I had a lovely dining room set the following week. It was delivered and the table was put together for us. All we had to do was put the chairs together. Not as easy as it sounds, but still pretty painless. The only complaint I had about the delivery was that the guys left boxes and a mess for me to clean.
This past weekend I was out hunting for a couch. Again, we ended up at Weekends Only and when we saw Ken we wanted to make sure he could help us again. We browsed a bit and saw a sectional that was perfect and exactly what we were looking for. Again, Ken wrote up the sales slip and explained the process to us for checking out and for delivery. We were able to walk around the store and pick out a few other decorative items and were not bothered or harassed by sales associates. I appreciated that.
Weekends Only may not be the best for everyone, but it certainly is a pretty good stop for me. Unlike other furniture stores they carry items that are contemporary and «my style». I’ll refer people to them and I’ll even go back again next time I need to make a big purchase. But for now, I have the 2 items I needed for my new place so I should be all set for now.

We were offered a $ 50 gift card because of our experience. We have yet to see it or hear back on its status.

The furniture buying process here is reasonably efficient. The two-​star review comes from the two hour late delivery and piss poor customer service received from the call center. We called to report that our delivery was coming to an end, and got «well we are only human» as a response. I then asked the young lady to contact the delivery company to check progress, and she acted like I was out of bounds for expecting her to follow up.
When we got a call back an hour later, she offered an apology for their lateness, but neglected to mention that a last minute delivery to Colombia was added to the beginning of their delivery day. This we learned from the drivers when they showed up well outside the 3 hour window. If we had missed the window, Weekends only would have charged us $ 50 to reschedule. Th missing the window resulted in absolutely no remedy other than a half assed «sorry for the wait».
On top of all that, the couch we bought was torn in three places on the bottom. According to the drivers manifest, the damage was present when they picked up the pieces from the distribution center. I’m extra glad we spent the money on their protection plan.
We will not be shopping here again. If you happen to take a chance on them, I’d recommend picking up your own furniture.

Wow, talk about furniture superstore. I mean, Weekends Only is where it’s at if you’re looking for cheap/‘affordable’ furniture. It’s packed with lazy boys and sofas as far as the eye can see.
It’s seriously just a warehouse stuffed full of everything from bedroom sets to mega-​sectional-​theatre-​style sofas. The staff work on commission and are eager to help. I spent my time just sitting on various couches I thought looked nice to double check their comfort levels. A sales rep was really attentive but I wasn’t ready to buy anything – just looking around.
This is a great spot to peruse but I can’t speak much to the service since I haven’t bought anything. I have my eye on a grey one I might be back for ;)

Insane deals here!!! Bought a gorgeous comfy sectional and due to the price also purchased an accent chair. Mary helped me out with everything, answered all my questions, made the process super easy and her friendly personality was greatly appreciated. I’ll definitely be back here for all my furnishing needs

Unbelievable crazy deals!!! A 9pc ctr hgt dining set, all wood with a lazy Susan for $ 498…wow!

I am here to drop an awesome review for this Weekends Only! I am shocked by the bad reviews, I bought a black leather futon from the store earlier this year. The store associate was very helpful and very nice with getting all the questions answered and everything went smoothly. I loved the delivery it was quick and easy and I love my futon still! I think its a great place to buy furniture at a very great low price but for cool and classy nice furniture I love them and just bought a kitchen table from the location out in St. Peters. this is the best location of the 2 I’ve purchased from. So many great things in the store to choose from. I love this place!

I received my furniture from Weekends Only on Monday. The drivers were right on time (my delivery time frame was 3:30 to 6:30 and they were knocking on the door around 3:35) and very polite. They got the furniture in quickly. Unfortunately, it all took a turn when it came time to put the legs on my dining room table. Weekends Only sent out the wrong hardware for the table so the legs couldn’t even go on it. They also told me they weren’t allowed to put the chairs or bench together. Considering I was told by our sales guy that they would be putting EVERYTHING together and all I had to do was sit and enjoy it, I was a little ticked.
I was told that the store would call later to set up a time for someone to come out with the hardware for the table. I waited, and waited, and waited. I got a call from my mom later telling me that they called her phone (she was the secondary number and I never got a call to begin with) and left a message. They told my dad that they don’t even sell that set anymore and will have to take the hardware off the table on the floor. They said they could mail the hardware or the earliest they could come back out would be Friday. Even though it’s not ideal, we got it set up for them to come back on Friday with the correct hardware.
I decided to put the chairs together today in case there was hardware missing there. As I pulled out the chairs, I noticed that the finish was coming off and there were chunks of wood missing from the backs and seats. I didn’t even bother putting them together. We called and they’ll be picking the set up on Friday to return it.
I will never be shopping at Weekends Only again.

So my story differs a bit from the other stories people have told. I bought a mattress, and the experience in the store was great. Our sales person was nice, she left us alone when we wanted to be left alone, and we decided to buy a mattress when we hadn’t even thought about doing that before (we came in for a bookshelf, but really need a mattress).
We were successfully upsold on the protector, and the delivery, paid, and were on our way.
Now there are tons of places to buy mattresses, and we chose Weekends Only because they happened to have one we really liked at a decent price, and we didn’t feel pressured to make a decision. The entire experience in the store before we paid was great. Things start to go downhill when scheduling the delivery.
My girlfriend and I are both servers, students, and interns. The reason we can afford a new mattress is because we work, a lot, on the weekends. Every day we had fully available that we suggested for delivery we were told «they don’t deliver on that day». Monday and Thursday were our first choices. «Sorry not available». So our last bad choice was today, Friday. As long as they delivered on Friday we would be able to accept the delivery if it came before 5pm. (We both work 2^nd shift at a restaurant)
Of course when they called to confirm the delivery window, we were told the window was from 6pm to 9pm. When asked the day before if they could change that to make it earlier, we were told flat out no. I called back and got no answer. Great.
When Weekends Only still wanted my money the experience was great. As soon as they had it, and had to deliver on their end of the deal, things got more difficult. I just don’t understand, if you pay $ 70 for a delivery, why you can only get it delivered four days out of the week, and have to completely clear your schedule the DAY BEFORE to get your stuff delivered that you’ve already paid for.
From now on, if I get a good deal at Weekends Only, I won’t be getting the delivery service, I’ll be renting a truck. It’s less of a hassle and probably cheaper.

Just let me shop in peace!

I had a great experience here! The salespeople and the person who checked me out were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Of course the furniture isn’t the fanciest, most sturdy of them all, but it’s all pretty cheap decent quality which is exactly what I was looking for. Delivery was quick and easy! I can’t attest to whether anything will break since my furniture was just delivered, but I’m happy for now!

As another user wrote on here, going to weekends is like being stalked by a hungry vulture that will literally pick you for all your worth/​whatever commission it can get from you and then leave your remains to rot. Seriously.
Lets start with the fact that the clearance items are actually kind of awesome. Oh but wait, THEY WONT DELIVER CLEARANCE ITEMS. Ok fine, I can get over that. So at the suggestion of purple shirt creeper #2 389 743 347 we go and rent a van from Home Depot down the road. Important fact — its 5pm on a Sunday. Both Home Depot and Weekends close at 8pm. We’re exhausted from having our eyeballs picked out by the purple vultures at Weekends and I was ready to go home. We pick out our items and get in line — its now about 610 pm. The line is so long I can barley see the cashiers. Correction: CASHIER. They have ONE person checking 40 people out. Are you serious? Ain’t nobody got time for that. Our sales person literally drops us off in line and walks away… to which I run after him and say — «Hi sir — its now 6:15 and we have to bring all this furniture home, and then drive back to Home Depot and drop the van off before close time — do you think you could ask someone to open up another cash register?» Purple shirts response? «Sorry I can’t.» THAT WAS IT. Wait — am I seriously about to drop well over a thousand dollars on medium to low grade furniture for you to tell me you cant even help a girl out? Funny how I was literally STALKED right up until the point that they don’t want anything to do with me. Not wanting to make a scene I hold my tongue and patiently stand in line as the clock ticks by hoping that some Weekends Miracle will occur and one of the Orange shirted people will show up and open another cash register. But no, even after repeated requests by multiple customers, I watch the second cashier mysteriously hand out wads of cash to a group of purple shirted stalkers while laughing and joking about god knows what. Other people in line start complaining an making scenes so I start to feel justified in my anger — maybe we will rise up and just burn the place down. That would be better than waiting in between the hideous plush recliner chairs for AN HOUR — but no, nothing like that happened– instead, the blonde cheeto crunching cashier just keeps on her merry, snails paced way and we watched as customers literally leave their slips on the furniture surrounding the line and walk out of the store. Next thing I know its 7:20 and we’ve run out of time. So, I go up to the cashier, tell her to cancel everything on the slip except for the clearance table we wanted and we walk out with no time to bring the table home AND return the van.
Cool. We just rented a van to the tune of over FIFTY dollar FOR NO REASON.
Sadly I’m about to go back to this soul sucking horror of a place to pick up my table. If you don’t want to waste hours of your precious life being stalked by creepos who don’t actually care about the «luxurious appearance of the couch» or that the «bar stools are most definitely counter height» when they are clearly NOT — don’t come here. And if you dont have a choice, well I pray that you can at least find a piece of furniture that is worth the nightmares you will soon have regarding the purple shirted people eaters.

We were shopping for a mattress so we stopped by any place we saw that may carry them at a good price. This store is new to me as I have not seen or heard from them in any other state I have lived in. They do have some comfortable selections in the back but they carry Restonic and I just don’t think that brand is as reputable as a Stearns and Foster and a Simmons or Sealy. If I’m going to pay 1600.00 I want a common brand that has been around and I’m familiar with. We strolled around looking at the other furniture they had and it is just common furniture the same stuff you may see at big lots, value city, ashley. nothing too exciting… and I didn’t even think the prices were that good for the low quality…

i crusied through this place no problem. I saw a sectional on their website. I called them to confirm they had it. I dropped by the same evening to pay for it. They delivered it the next day. Yes I had to pay for delivery ($ 69). That was not bad at all. They told me between 9am-​12pm. They called me at 9:03am. No b.s. And said they were out front. My loft is easy to enter; no steps. That’s probably why the delivery was so easy. They set up my sectional how I wanted it no questions asked. They were out by 9:30am. Two highly professional gents. Hopefully my next purchase with them will have the same outcome.

We’ve been looking for mattresses around town the past few days. Weekends Only the sales guys are creepy and stalk you even when you’ve asked to be left alone. Guys don’t seem to know their product, they just read me what’s on the tag. Just a shame. Looks like our business is going elsewhere.

This is where cheap microfiber and particle board come to die.
The furniture at Weekends Only can be descibed in one word: subpar (both quality and design) and honestly, their prices just aren’t that great. Where is this supposed savings b/​c you are only open on weekends? It’s certainly not getting passed along to the customers.
My husband and I were both completely unimpressed. I won’t say it’s the worst furniture store I’ve been to, but it’s definitely near the bottom.
I will say they have some interesting pieces… multiple GIGANTIC square couches or huge round ottomans that would frankly fill my living room abound. I don’t know who is furnishing their house like this.
Just really not a fan… maybe someone else will find a gem… we moved right along.

Went shopping with lou lou and I recommend having irfan help you! He is very helpful, knowledgable on everything she needed.

Where does humanity go to buy cheap furniture? IKEA. But, the nearest Ikea to St. Louis is like 5 hours away or something, so I have to look elsewhere.
So I go to Weekends Only, and I have gotten a LOT of things from here. They have some great deals. I got a really nice desk over the weekend for $ 140. A similar desk on Ikea’s website was $ 299.
The sales staff is pretty friendly and are quick to help. I have yet to be harassed by anyone here and when I went on Saturday, I actually had to seek someone out.
This isn’t luxury furniture folks, but even then, it’s really great for the price. I’ve got a couch that’s three years old and is sat on every day and it looks and feels like I bought it yesterday I have a dresser that still looks brand new and it’s jammed full of my junk.
Also it’s a great place for damaged goods. I have the cutest coffee table that I get loads of compliments on that was only 30 $ (original price was like 250??) because it had some scratches on it. I fixed the scratches and it looks brand new.
When you buy something, their employees load it in your car for you (and they also hold items for I think 7 days?), and I really dig that.
Parking is ample, HUGE selection, good prices. I can’t think of anywhere else in St. Louis that is like that (although feel free to tell me if you can think of something…)

I had a bad experience here a few years ago and so I won’t shop here at all any more.
I purchased an admittedly cheap kitchen table when I was going away to grad school.
Within a few weeks, one of the chairs tipped over and the back BROKE IN HALF.
I called Weekends Only and asked for a replacement, but they refused to do anything to help me and said even though there was a warrant, that kind of damage was not covered and I would have to try to go through the manufacturer (who also refused to do anything.)
I most likely will never buy from here again.

Pro: I got a beautiful table here for under $ 1,000.00, delivered within a week and the sales guy who helped me out was a good sport about running around to check availability on countless options (I’m fickle).
Cons:): The rest of the staff was pretty incompetent. The girl checking me out was stuffing Cheetos in her mouth the whole time, didn’t even know how much my purchase was for and was complaining the whole time to her co workers about how they didn’t bring her back Taco Bell. Also-​what they didn’t tell me was that the table I got (counter top cherry kitchen table and 4 backed bar stools) had to be assembled! The delivery guy arrived and said it would cost $ 75.00/hour for him to stay and do it. WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO KNOW.
It does look great though, I definitely saved money too. Just a bad experience.
