Canal Furniture Liquidators

Buyer beware:
If you plan on purchasing from them, take 360 degree photos of the item before you pay for it and the shipping.
Just received my armoire with a huge scratch across the front that was not there before the delivery. The way the furniture was positioned hid a hotel sign that was stuck on with double-​sided tape. To remove it will lift the stain on the wood. Called about it and spoke to Nicole (Nikki?) who was rude when I purchased it and even worse over the phone. She claims it was there when I bought it. Minor scratches from a used furniture store are okay, but a huge gash across the front– no. Now I’m stuck with a damaged item.

Stopped in by accident and found the most perfect mirror for my bathroom remodel. Will be back for other pieces! Great shop!

This is truly a hidden gem for good solid furniture and home accessories AT CHEAP prices that needs a little TLC.

Great selection, great prices. Bought 2 large mirrors here and are very pleased with them.

we have visited this location several times. I understand it has new owners And you can tell. The quality/​price has gotten a bit better and there is always someone to answer questions if needed. You can really tell the new owners care about the business and their customers. Check them out! It’s like a treasure hunt!

I’m glad I found this little hidden gem. This warehouse has everything from beds to kitchen furniture to wine coolers to filing cabinets. If your looking for gently used antiques and furniture at a decent price, this is ur place to go.

I went to CFL on Saturday… they were busy. They’re new owners — Joe was very polite. I did buy a HON desk for $ 195…I thought this was a little on the high side. Joe said it was alot more expensive desk… I had my doubts… well I looked up the same desk… It was an over $ 1200.00 desk. WOW — I grabbed it & it looks brand new! I also got a cheap $ 25 computer chair that works just fine… I agree they do have some higher priced items but their selection is %100 better than before. They still have $ 10 chairs and $ 45 desks as well… Thanks Joe :)

New owners, higher prices. Justification: store better organized, pickier about their purchases. Maybe, but I’m not paying ~$ 70 for an outdated (& poorly spray painted!) basic square table with chips in the wood. Nor, will i spend $ 85 on a desk chair that can no longer be adjusted for height. Seriously. I can get a brand new one at office depot for the same price. So, granted, it is more organized, but there’s much less product and it’s the same quality of furniture (aka you still have to put a bit of work… and cleaning. into it). The person that I spoke with was kind, and explained their new approach. She explained they are new owners, and the old owner retired back in November. She also claims they have not raised any prices, and says that it just seems that way cause they have been «pickier» about what they buy/​sell. Hmm. yeah, I’m not convinced. I’m not coming to CFL for a furniture showcase. I’m looking for used furniture that I can spruce up or refurbish at a low price. Guess I’ll have to look somewhere else now. :-(Good luck, CFL!

larger than i expected, way better than the 2011 and earlier reviews would lead one to believe, nice lady working there, but not a ton of great interest to warrant going out of your way. they do post cool things to craigslist; keep your eyes peeled.

I stopped by this place because I moved to Mid City and was in the market for a sturdy old wardrobe that I could refinish and customize. This place is stacked with dirty old furniture that is dusty and smells like mildew. Some of the prices are completely ridiculous, but I think you can haggle with them for a lower price. What I would say is that their staff, particularly «Jay» have no clue what customer service or sales is all about. He is especially rude and inappropriate. I over head him telling a customer that he assaulted a man over Mardi Gras. I would say put this place at the bottom of your list. Craigslist, Bridge House, Pelican Thrift and estate sales are probably better bets.

It’s huge, and it’s dingy– maybe moldy– but if you’re willing to work with it, it’ll work for you.
I’ve picked up a few pieces of furniture for the home– all of which Ive taken home, ripped apart, made interesting, and put it back together. It works. I haggled a hideous coffee table set for $ 40, a little spray paint and decopage, and we’re in business.
The stuffs a little funky, but its most hotel grade, so if you’re willing to put the work in to make it unique, then its good solid furniture for pretty cheap, esp if you haggle and befriend the owner.

This place is for the older generation that doesn’t yet know about Craigslist. I feel like they find some of this stuff on the side of the road, and then sell it for $ 100. It’s all expensive! I don’t really get it.

If you’re in the market for musty, used hotel furniture from a style-​challenged bygone era, this is totally your place. They’ve got all kinds of stuff — beds, desks, chairs, office furniture, giant ashtrays like the ones you used to see outside a hotel elevator — and there’s so much crammed into this warehouse that it’s literally piled to the ceiling.
I can’t really speak to the prices, because I didn’t look closely enough to find out how much anything cost. For furniture that will be used for a set, or a porch couch, or something along those lines, this might be a good option. Or maybe if you’re looking to start a bonfire or something. Otherwise, I think you might be better off going to a thrift store like Bridge House.

I’ve driven by this place many, many times and walked even closer when visiting Bayou Bikes next door. Today, I decided to go inside after seeing a table they listed on craigslist. I ended up leaving without the table, but it was a pretty strange experience that you might enjoy reading about.
Canal Furniture Liquidators is where old hotel furniture, bedding, and lamps end up when hotels get remodeled. The entire warehouse space is stacked (from floor to ceiling in some areas) with wardrobes, dressers, desks, sofas, and chairs that have come from mid-​priced hotels from across the nation.
If you want your home to look like a cheap motel, this will be your best bet in the city to find that floral print couch or that dark wood veneer headboard you’ve been looking for.
I left without the table I saw (it had already sold) but picked up a used lamp for $ 10.
You should stop by just to gaze in wonder at the hundreds of pieces of nearly identical used furniture.
