Does Article have stores?
To help keep its prices reasonable, Articles doesn’t have physical stores. However, there are lots of photos and videos of its furniture online to help you make your shopping decision.
Is Article furniture easy to assemble?
The difficulty of assembling furniture is relative, and personally, I find it hard. However, should you take the DIY assembly route, Article gives an estimate of how long the assembly process takes for each item, and most come together in under an hour.
Does Article offer delivery and assembly?
Article will deliver your order to your front door as standard practice for $49 as long as you’re within its service area, and the deliverers will come on a scheduled date and time. They’ll even text you when they’re 30 minutes away. A signature isn’t always required if you’re not home, but you may want to call customer service to make sure you’re not in one of the spots where Article trusts a partner to drop off your goods (in which case, a personalized scribble may be needed). You should note, though, that small items and anything under $200 will come by a courier with a $19 shipping fee.
If you don’t want to schlep all the delivery boxes from your front door or stoop into your space, the company offers an in-room service where your order will be placed in the space of your choosing for $119. For this option, since the delivery will be in your home, a signature is required.
Still, if you’re like me, there is a delivery and assembly service option for $199 that may be appealing. When I moved into a new apartment last year, I ordered a dining table, dining chairs, a headboard, and a storage bed frame all from Article, and wasn’t prepared for an afternoon of instruction manuals and stress, so I took advantage of the in-room and assembly service.
For this option, the deliverers will unbox and build all of the components of your order as you watch (or don’t, I was answering work emails). Because these team members are trained in putting these pieces together, the process is impressively quick. Then they take all of the boxes and packing materials with them, and you can just relax in your newly furnished space.
Last note, I promise: For all of these options but particularly this last one, it’s important to measure your space and ensure that the items will fit through door frames, both in a box and as completed pieces of furniture. Thankfully, Article has instructions on doing that like a pro, too.
Does Article have any sales?
Article has a few sales during the year, especially around major holidays where you’ll find solid deals on its furniture. Currently, Article’s Black Friday sale features discounts up to 40% off. It’s their biggest sale of the year, so be sure to shop around for your favorites and add to cart quickly.
Is Article furniture worth it?
Multiple editors here at Apartment Therapy, including myself, have several pieces from Article, so I would say yes, Article is worth it. The brand’s furniture is easy on the wallet, and even easier to browse and shop online. Now, which items are worth your attention? Let’s get into it.
