We had a great experience at Furnitureland working with Debbie Kennon. We were looking for dining room and living room furniture, and she guided us along the way with fabrics, rugs and lots of choices to consider. We're a repeat customer and will definitely shop here with Debbie in the future! —Patrick H.

My husband and I were looking for bedroom furniture and we were helped by Debbie Kennon and Dawn Williams. They were both wonderful, extremely helpful and made the experience of furniture shopping go by in the blink of an eye! Debbie & Dawn led us around the gigantic store and gave us her opinion on how different dressers might work in our home. There was no pressure to buy and I honestly don't think we would've been able to make a decision without their help.

They were also very thorough! Once we chose something, they made sure we're getting exactly what we needed. They even documented the whole process in case of a mix-up. If we need any additional furniture in the future, we will absolutely heading back to work with Debbie and Dawn! —Danielle D.

Debbie Kennon gave me her undivided attention. She paid attention to what I was looking for and worked with us on style, color, and comfort while caring to put our new purchases together with our antiques and art. I would highly recommend Debbie as well as Furniture South. They have excellent products and very reasonable pricing. - Debbie L.

I was so pleased to make my order this week with Debbie. She has been working with me for over 6 months with considerable indecision on my part, and her patience, creativity, extensive knowledge and experience, and warmth of character made all the difference. I have already referred several friends to Furnitureland South and to Debbie, in particular. —Emily O.

We want to thank Debbie Kennon for her professional knowledge and guidance during our shopping experience! —John M.

There are few buying experiences that compel one to write a note of thanks. My husband and I had such an experience at Furnitureland South on April 4, with Debbie Kennon as our guide.

We had been referred to your store and to Debbie by a previous customer who was advising us on the building of our vacation home in East Tennessee. We had no previous experience with High Point, except that the location was known to us as a furniture capitol. After more than a year of house building, we were anxious to find the right furnishings to complement our home's design and unique finishes. We had been disappointed with Internet searches and local retail offerings. Our expectations also were modest for our trip to Highp Point. We were hoping to find a key piece or two.

Furnitureland South made more than that possible. In just one day, we furnished our great room, conversational bar area, kitchen nook and master bedroom. This would not have been possible without the expert guidance of Debbie Kennon.

Debbie Kennon has provided me, my company and referred friends, invaluable service over many years.  Debbie provides detailed knowledge, good judgement and superior attention to detail in every project she has undertaken for me.

Furniture acquisition is neither simple nor straightforward. The furniture industry is a continual stream of discontinued items, fabric, and options. Not only does Debbie keep up with all of these details, she makes it her priority to know the lines, and make thoughtful recommendations on quality, style, and company customer service after the sale.  An individual like Debbie is imperative to make the acquisition of home furniture a successful experience each and every time.

I plan to continue working with Debbie as long as she will have me as a client! Thank you for everything, Debbie. —Beth M.

We had a wonderful experience shopping at FLS and working with Debbie Kennon! Debbie was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and patient. We just received delivery of our new furniture and we are so happy with everything. Thank you so much, Debbie! We couldn't have done it without you. —ReNaye D.

My husband & I were initially introduced to Furnitureland South back in 2008, and throughout the last 11 years, have worked with FLS to completely furnish 4 different properties — two in a suburb of Chicago, IL & two in Naples, FL. They have the largest collection of manufacturers that we have ever seen & have a very dedicated & talented staff. In late 2017 we purchased our current home in Naples & we knew furnishing it would be quite a large project, so we reached out to our FLS designer. It turns out she had recently moved to Australia, and so she immediately recommended that we work with Debbie Kennon.

Immediately upon meeting Debbie, we felt extremely comfortable. She very quickly understood our design style & our rug/furniture requirements room by room, and helped us tirelessly over the next 4 days to furnish this rather large property — a property that needed almost as much outdoor furniture as indoor. She was extremely knowledgeable about the manufacturers that best satisfied our style & was beyond efficient in terms of getting questions answered & securing all of the pieces we wanted — always making sure we were using our time as effectively as possible. She was also incredibly helpful to us with choosing fabrics/finishes & put tremendous effort into making sure these details were documented properly prior to placing the order. Debbie put her heart & soul into making sure that the finished product would be exactly as we expected. In addition to all of that & despite the stress of getting a lot done in a short amount of time, we had a ton of fun working with her!     

Debbie, as well as members of the FLS delivery department, has continued to be extremely responsive with any questions/additional needs that we have had after the order was placed as well as after delivery took place. Our delivery experience with FLS has always been extremely positive as well — very efficient, polite & accommodating. 

It has always been clear to us that the entire FLS team cares about its customers & works very hard to ensure that the customer experience is extremely positive from start to finish. That is why we would never think of going anywhere else! —Denise K.

We wanted to thank Debbie Kennon for all of her help! We've never had a furniture shopping experience be so stress-free — she is amazing! Debbie listened to our wants and needs, and then she delivered.

We look forward to our next visit & working with Debbie again! —Donna & Steve M.

Debbie Kennon always provides us with amazing customer service and is simply THE BEST design consultant. Debbie has always invested so much of her time & thought into helping us select the perfect pieces for our home. We cannot recommend her enough — she truly makes customer service her top priority! —Lauren G.

Debbie Kennon greeted us at the entrance & gave us a quick introduction to the buildings & a tour. We walked the showrooms ourselves as we knew what style & pieces we needed, but Debbie would’ve accompanied us and helped if we preferred.

Debbie went above & beyond to help us get the items we wanted quickly & easily. We will definitely return to work with Debbie again! —Cherrie B.
