Greetings! I found a no-so-uplifting review in the form of a letter at
Planet Feedback where a person wrote to their bankcard program with
the question "Is there really a furniturefind.com?"  I believe you
should definitely read this letter.

I also found a blurb about it from a 11/8/2000 article about Circle
Group titled "Circle Group Internet comes full circle":

"In the past year, Circle Group has invested in eight companies, and
Halpern says he sees all eight on their way to succeeding. In fact,
one of those companies, Buchanan, Mich.-based FurnitureFind.com, was
acquired in April by GoodHome.com, the largest online furniture
retailer. Circle Group had invested $2 million in the company in
November last year." [Researcher note: that would be April 2000]

This is from an article BBB (Better Business Bureau Online) quoting a
member of the company -

"The seals meet the needs of both the consumer and the business in
this sometimes challenging, but unquestionably important, alternate
retail channel," said Steve Antisdel, CEO of FurnitureFind.com, which
was launched in 1996 as an extension of its retail stores. "As a
50year-old furniture business, we had the BBB torch proudly displayed
in the front window long before we ventured online. In our experience,
the BBBOnLine symbol is an effective way to quickly communicate our
commitment to service in a way that customers intuitively understand.
While successful e-commerce requires some new skill sets compared to
traditional retailing, the need for trust between the customer and the
retailer is the same," said Antisdel."


In other search results, I discovered:

1. A 4.3 rating of FurnitureFind.com on PricingCentral.com

2. A page of FurnitureFind.com coupons at a site called USA Codes.

3. A site where one may become an affiliate and receive 4% per sale.

4. Various innocuous messages left by a Jeffrey of FurnitureFind.com
at various message boards and guest books.

I found no other 'review" but the one I mentioned at the top.  I would
suggest you make up your own mind if they are trustworthy.  I hope
this information proves of assistance in your quest.
