What do you prefer to see when walking into a furniture showroom?
The Keeping Room is less than 5,000 sf so we have limited floor space. Sarah and I were discussing which is better for customers, what is your input?
1) Have less inventory but have room settings where things are coordinated (sofa/chairs/benches/coffee tables)
2) Have more inventory but lined up and not in any format (which is how we currently do it).
The only way to set up room settings is to reduce stock levels about 20% to "unjam" the furniture and create layouts. Both have their merits, in the lined-up scenario, you can see more items and frames, in the room setting layout you can point to it and say "I like that look, I'll take it".
Let us know!
