House of Values

Kim and Nancy are the Best!
I love to visit HofV and look around, I have purchased furniture here over the years. My son has been looking for furniture for his first apartment at other stores. Took him here and there is no going back to those other stores. He noticed the difference in design and prices.

House of Values is unreal amazing. I’ve spent my last two Saturday’s here with Kim and she is a phenomenal sales associate. She doesn’t work on commission, so she can dedicate an unreal amount of time to helping you get the perfect furniture. Also, HoV sells super high end furniture at more than half off — come here and customize your furniture for a very reasonable price!

Been buying most if not all of my furniture in the last 3 homes, if you can wait and not in a hurry, the savings are worth it. Nancy and her team are fantastic to work with.

Nancy was tremendously helpful and patient as I selected a new style for my living room. These folks are plugged into the latest and greatest from some of the best furniture houses in America. Tip: if you don’t see something in the catalogs they have in the store, make sure to look up the furniture houses’ websites. They may have new pieces online you don’t see in the catalog, and House of Values will order them for you.

My fiancé and I had been shopping for a good quality bedroom furniture set at a reasonable price. We had been to probably ten furniture stores before we found House of Values. We hit the jack pot at this place. The employees were extremely helpful and not pushy at all. They helped me identify a style, and then helped me find a furniture set in my price range.
A few months after purchasing the bedroom set we had a minor issue with one of the drawers. House of Values customer service was excellent. They sent someone the next week to fix the drawer. I highly recommend House of Values.

This is the best place to find quality furniture for the lowest price available. But you need to understand that a lot of people know that and they are very busy. The employees are definitely not going to try to sell you anything, but they know so much about furniture brands and are the best resource around if you go in when they have time to help you. I recommend calling ahead to find out when is a good time to come in if you need much help. When I went on a Saturday they were crazy busy, but they offered to call me on Monday to complete my order.

I’ve been shopping H of V for the last 15 years and the service I receive from everyone is top notch. Especially from Sabrina. She knows her stuff. Ok people this is NOT a store with a huge internet website. It would be virtually impossible to access all of the furniture they have available. Do your homework by shopping around gathering information on make and model. Take that info to House of Values to see if they handle that line. If they do. You will NOT be disappointed.

I’ve furnished two apartments at House of Values, and have been very satisfied with the price, quality, friendly staff and delivery service. Nancy and Kim have each helped me find excellent furniture with custom leather, fabric and details. They even diagrammed my rooms to make sure everything would fit comfortably allowing me to confidently buy pieces large enough to fit my rooms and suit my comfort. They have also saved me thousands of dollars. I will be returning soon to buy a few things I held off on before my move.
Pro tip: Go in on a weekday if you can. Saturdays are very busy here. If you do go on Saturday, plan to be there for a while and just generally chill out.

Nancy and her staff are the best! No hard sell and the best price anywhere. If you know what you want, and it is not on the floor, you will find in their catalogs. No shipping charges and they inspect each piece for damage before leaving. I bought a beautiful current Bernhardt dining set, seen on the Bernhardt website, and paid almost 40% off. They cannot be beat. Just what we wanted.

Very unhappy with the quality of the furniture I bought for the amount of money I spent. The couch I bought is already showing signs of wear and tare and it’s only been a few months. The cushions on the couch are all different sizes (I measured with a measuring tape) so you can see spaces where the cushions meet. I also bought a mirrored night stand and two side tables. There are gaps where the mirrors meet the hardware on the nightstand (which collect dust). The knobs on the drawers are poorly put on. I also ordered a white shag rug which was a nightmare when I opened it up. There were brown stains in several places. Luckily they helped to call the manufacturer and I was able to return it. I wish I could say the same for the other pieces. Overall very disappointed and I will not be coming back nor recommending this place to anyone.

I have a love-​hate relationship with HoV. On the one hand, their prices can’t be beat. I recently ordered a really nice sofa from there – the sales rep looked up the retail price and cut it in half. And delivery is free – yay!
On the other hand, the showroom is a mishmash of furniture types and styles. In other words, it’s hard to draw inspiration for your own house by perusing the store. And the service can be hit or miss. I went once with the intent of ordering a few different furniture pieces – i.e., ready to drop some dough – but I could not get anyone to help me price and order my items! Selection is pretty good but you have to be brave enough to order from a catalog without having seen the furniture in person.
Net-​net, though, HoV is my go-​to place for furniture… After I’ve browsed the name brand stores for ideas!

Good selection at great prices! My wife and I were in search of a sectional sofa, and came across House of Values. Other stores were selling some of the pieces that we were interested in for 2 times the price of HOV.
Nice and non-​aggressive salespeople. We are very pleased with our purchase.

Back at House of Values to get Granny a power lift chair. No need to buy an ugly one from a medical supply house. Chose a gorgeous microfiber fabric in a shade that is elegant; the power lift chair doesn’t look as if it comes from a big box store, either. She chose a sleek lined, beautifully tailored chair with a design that works well with her style. This lift recliner is just what the doctor ordered!
With such a nice, caring, staff, why go anywhere else? Many thanks to Nancy & the team.

We ordered 2 Flex steel sofas for our living room and a custom sectional for our home theater room. Nancy (the owner) was a pleasure to work with who has a great eye for color coordinating/​style. Be prepared to go through many catalogues and swatches!

This place is pretty fabulous. They don’t do the hard sell. There is not much on the floor, but they have loads and loads of books you can look through, you just have to be able to visualize.
I am kicking myself for not finding this place sooner and furnishing my entire house here.

U[date: delivered, and it is just what I wanted!!!
Decided I wanted a new dresser… and went on an extensive hunt for the perfect one.
Came upon Stanely’s Coastal Living line… and realized House of Values carried the brand… DGD’s bedroom furniture is Stanley and was purchased here.
Sent a couple of e-​mails to HoV… and received quick answers to my pricing and availability questions.
I needed to go in and look at finish samples, and check out the construction, so hubby and I headed over early this morning. Beautiful drive over the bay…
Great service… glad we came in early. Saw a similar piece for construction, and picked the color… so glad I did not rely on the internet.
Decisions were made… and it is ordered!
I can’t wait to improve the nest.

I was needing to check out some samples of fabric from Nathan Anthony for a client of mine. Upon entering this Salvation Army inspired showroom, it was unclear who actually works here and who is walking around confused without a sales associate. I walked into the back work room where 3 employees behind a desk happily ignored the fact that I was looking for assistance. After feeling like I had entered an «employee only» space, I walked to the other side of the showroom where I finally found, in the back, the fabric area.
Most fabrics were nicely hung, but being that I was looking for something specific i had expected to get in, get help finding the fabric section and get out. After several employees walked passed me, not one asking if I was finding everything I needed, I eventually found the Nathan Anthony fabric section only because I recognized a specific fabric from a showroom I worked in before, selling this product.
After looking through the fabrics and pulling the memos I wanted, someone finally came by and asked if I wanted a catalog.
When I was ready to check out the fabrics, I was ignored and searched both ends of the showroom for help, and was rejected by the man behind the computer, as well as the rude dark haired woman who sits behind him. She said «well shouldn’t Nancy be helping you?» First of all, I don’t know who Nancy is, and regardless I was a potential customer for a sale you lost from the moment I walked in the door.
Out of honesty, I asked to check out the fabrics because I understand as a former showroom designer how difficult it can be to get fabrics returned or replaced after being borrowed. It was more time consuming to find someone help me with that process than it was for me to find the fabrics I wanted on my own.
Finally, Nancy gave me a scrap piece of paper and dried out sharpie to write down my information and fabrics I was checking out. Something a sales associate should do for me. Needless to say, I won’t be purchasing these 2 sofas from House of Values, and might consider returning the fabrics, but that’s an hour drive out of my way.
I gave one star so that it is understood I didn’t forget to rate this place. Really no stars is what is deserved.

Here’s the deal — House of Values is not a fancy furniture store where they will hold your hand, help you make decisions, and make commission off you. We couldn’t actually figure out how to enter the building because there are three separate buildings on the block, all with different types of furniture.
This is how you do it at House of Values — first go to a fancy furniture store that has a gigantor showroom (we went to Giorgi Bros) — your chances of seeing more furniture in the flesh are much higher. We found the couch we wanted at Giorgi, got it priced, then went to HOV to see if we could get it cheaper… and yes, we did — $ 1000 cheaper!
The employees at HOV are very straightforward. You want to see fabric? They’ll point you to the room where there are 1,000,000 different kinds of fabric. You want to sit in couches? Go ahead. They won’t hassle you, which I happen to appreciate. They are there when you have questions and will leave you alone if you want to just poke around.
Since we went in knowing exactly what we wanted, we just asked for a price quote for all the pieces of the section couch we had picked out. The price came back amazingly lower than Giorgi. We picked out our fabric, got help picking out the couch legs, and voila! Done. He quoted that it would take 6 – 8 weeks for the couch to be delivered, and in week 4 of waiting, we got a phone call that the couch was here and we scheduled (free) delivery. 4 WEEKS EARLY! Delivery guys came in the window they promised, kindly moved our old cruddy couch into the garage for us, and plopped the new couches in our living room.
If I need to buy any other furniture, I will definitely, without question, go with HOV.

Bought a beautiful bed for $ 2650 that retailed for $ 5600. The team was great from start to finish. They were very helpful putting it together which took two men an hour. Will buy from again!

About a year ago, we were shopping at House of Values, we found a large clock/​cabinet that we really liked. We talked to «Junior,» a very nice grandfatherly man who took care of all of the paperwork. I came back later to load it up into our car, and to my surprise, he insisted on helping me carry the bulky thing out to my car and helped me jostle it in through the trunk and past folded-​down car seats.
Since we moved to San Carlos about a year and a half ago, we’ve been on the lookout for furniture. Our realtor recommended House of Values and we’ve stopped by several times. In addition to looking around at the furniture they have in the store, they’ve got a back office full of furniture catalogs. You flip through some catalogs for ideas, mark the things you like, and they’ll photocopy and price check things that you’re interested in before you place your order with them. It’s got a very different feel from a typically furniture store; it’s a bit on the homier side, and the back room is bustling with energy. Overall the staff is very busy but helpful, especially with finding similar-​looking items and tracking down samples.
This past weekend we stopped by since we’ve been looking for a new bed (we ended up ordering one). We noticed a flyer in the window announcing Junior’s passing and were greatly saddened, even though we didn’t know him personally. We had definitely seen him around but didn’t realize he’d owned the store since 1949. At the bottom of the flyer: «Hard work is the supreme luxury of life.»
