    Hi,

    I am moving house soon and need to buy a new couch and bed for the new house I am renting.

    I am looking to buy something that is of good quality and will last for a few years.

    Any suggestions as to where I could get the best deal for good quality products around Limerick city or county?

    Thanks.

    IKEA may be worth the trip. :)

    You could try Cost Plus Sofas for your couch/sofa. I don't know if they do beds though.

    Argos possibly. I bought my furniture for my house in Homebase(great deal) and Argos own them so it gets delivered on the Argos truck.

    I bought some furniture in Ikea actually and It is sturdy if not sturdier and considerably cheaper than other more pricey stuff around the place. You will buy much more than a coach and bed if you go to Ikea though. :D

    Just so you know. A lot of Dromkeen furniture is actually Argos furniture. They have been at it for a while. :rolleyes:

    Call into Gerry Haugh down on O'Curry Street. Old school type furniture store rather than the UK chain store types. I bought a bed and some other bits & pieces from him about 3 years ago. Haggled a good price with him and the furniture is perfect 3 years on.

    Shannon Furniture at the top of William st. Everything we have at home is from there bar a few antique bits. The lads in there are sound out, they'd never put ya wrong and they're always willing to bargain on a price!

    +1 Good prices and Salesman I dealt with seemed a decent sort.

    +1 Shannon Furniture is the exact opposite of Caseys and Instore - No €900 midget tableaux nouveaux there!!!!

    Just a tip for larger purchases such as these: due to the economic climate it is recommended that you pay any deposits or make full payments with credit card just in case the company goes into liquidation - if it does you'll get your money back. You pay cash say 'day day' to it.
