I saw that news and was sad to read it. Even though I'm in NJ, still have several nice items from Art Van that have moved with me through the years. Really cool oak dining table with gear driven top that opens both side equally to put the leaf in with Windsor chairs and my bedroom set are from Art Van.
Out here we have Ashley (moderate junk) Bobs (really junk) and Raymour and Flannigan, the same as Art Van. Hudsons used to have a really nice furniture department. Remember wondering through there many times. Macy's has some nice furniture stores here, lots of my current furniture comes from them, have been very happy with everything so far. | ||

The plot thickens, as the Art Van HQ was overtaken by people with layaway/orders yesterday....Warren MI police had to close it off early. We went to one of their Pure Sleep stores yesterday afternoon--you'd never know anything was up (though the single salesperson did say that Monday would be the changes/markdowns. BTW--is there any type of shopping more soul-sucking than buying a mattress....I see why the internet ordering thang is so predominant.

THeir Port Huron store closed a few a years ago. Who'da thunk 20 years ago that furniture would end up being mostly made in China. For one thing it's large and bulky etc. The furniture stores that so far are surviving are the "you don't pay till 2015" stores.. Our local higher end furniture store Breyentons closed a year or two ago but even they were selling made in China furniture and passing it off as high quality, it wasn't, if you looked closely. One time I was in there with mon, I asked a sales lady where a fancy french prov style curio cabinet was made (I already knew) and she told us it was foreign sourced. LOL. Most of the furniture in our Sears (before it closed) was made in China. Even Lazyboy is having their furniture made in China I believe.
