Testimonials

I spent the day with Olya Smith, a very skilled designer. In less than two hours, we managed to find the perfect pieces of furniture for my entire master bedroom & breakfast room, as well as pieces that I plan to purchase in the future.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Olya, who made the entire day a lot of fun. My entire experience and the ordering process was flawless! —Renee R.

Olya Smith’s knowledge and experience were invaluable to us. She carefully listened to what we told her about our needs, took us to areas where she thought we might find what we were looking for, and guided us though the entire process with great patience and without putting pressure on us in any way.

We left the store that afternoon with smiles on our faces and assurance that we had made the right choices and paid fair prices for the merchandise we selected. —Carolyn S., Pittsboro, NC

Olya Smith was wonderful! We enjoyed our time working with her as our Design Consultant, and we appreciate having her as a friend above all.  She has gone out of her way to help us in every occasion we needed her. We love Olya & wish her the success she deserves — in life, in career & in family! —Bill & Mary Ellen M.

My sister and I are from Delaware and have been buying for many many years from Olya Smith at Furnitureland South. Olya is wonderful!!! Before we travel down to FLS, we always contact her first to make sure she will be there. She is not only a fantastic sales person but she's also a warm & welcoming person too. We love her and we are always glad to see her on our buying visits. We were just there a couple of weeks ago and are planning another trip there next year! Thank you, Olya, for being such a great design consultant to us through the years! —Nancy C.

Excellent customer service! Olya was so helpful, efficient & knowledgeable about product line. —Diane H.

Olya Smith made my shopping experience so easy!  After meeting her I told her I was contemplating a few items in the outlet and she offered to assist me when I was ready to purchase. I had mentioned I liked to wander alone and she said that was no problem. Within a few weeks of speaking with her and another visit or two for measuring, I told her I was ready to pull the trigger and contacted her with these items.  Due to items being on clearance, she was able to get my pricing down and coordinate a delivery for me that worked with my schedule.    

We had about three phone conversations before the delivery about pricing and delivery times, and everything was seamless. Her confidence and knowledge put my mind at ease and I knew things would go as she had told me. After living with my furniture for about a month now, I am ecstatic. I love everything I bought and it makes my condo feel so much nicer.

Olya is everything a customer would want when shopping for furniture. She respects your time and lets you find things on your own but is available when you have questions or need to finalize the purchase. Having been in sales myself, I view her as a treasure of a sales person. My family members are searching for furniture also are planning to work with her as well.

I look forward to working with Olya in the future! –Colleen F. 

 

Olya is an exceptional designer. She listened and guided us through the maze of furniture at Furnitureland South. We were able to purchase exactly what we wanted at a great price. We are repeat customers who have brought our kids to Furnitureland South with the same success. —Jeffrey S.

Olya is very professional. I think her professionalism, from simple to something complex, I think her range of experience is so wide. I think she can help you with something small project or a big project, and she just makes this really fun and exciting. And you know, I think actually reducing the stress because it's stressful sometimes to shop for furniture, and especially when you come in to Furnitureland South and see this huge amount and your eyes sometimes just go, you know, become wide so she really helps to identify the right piece of furniture.

We are more than pleased with our experience. We appreciate the personal attention and unparalleled customer service from our design consultant Olya Smith.

Thank you for all you’ve done for us to make this dream a reality! We hope to do more shopping with you as needs arise and will always recommend you to our families, friends and neighbors. —Sandra G., Winter Park, FL

Olya Smith provided us with an excellent buying experience. Olya's professional, friendly manner and product knowledge put us at ease! She was also very helpful in deciding colors with the Ekornes line and made the buying experience truly "Stressless". —Ken O.

Working with Olya Smith was a pleasure! Her extensive knowledge made it the whole process so easy. She listened to everything we had to say and made it happen. Thank you very much, Olya! —Dan & Patty B.

I had such a positive design & shopping experience with Olya Smith. In preparation for our day, I had sent Olya photos, ideas, and a description of what I wanted my space to look like. When I arrived at 11:00am, she had a computer presentation ready for me that truly reflected the photos and description I gave her.

Olya helped me find a very comfortable Natuzzi sectional with the exact configuration I needed, two chairs, three occasional tables, a dining table and four chairs.
 
We did this in 7-8 hours, which felt more like 3-4 hours due to Olya's efficiency & guidance. I really enjoyed my day at FLS because of Olya Smith! —Lori B.

We LOVE all of our new furniture and rugs we selected with the help of Olya Smith. Olya was wonderful to work with and so talented! We were so lucky to be introduced to her and we appreciate all of her help. —Jim J.

Olya Smith was very pleasant to work with. She made several great recommendations for us to meet our needs and our budget. We will definitely be returning to work with Olya to make future purchases. I definitely recommend asking for Olya Smith to assist you! —Randy F.

This is the second time we worked with Olya Smith, and just like last time, we had a wonderful experience! Olya's very good at her job - she is very knowledgeable and has an incredible personality. Thank you for the pleasant experience, Olya! —Michael H.

I would like to start this mail saying thanks a lot for all your help during our furniture shopping trip in North Carolina. After saying that, have a Happy New Year.

We got the furniture on December 22nd, and everything fit beautifully. My daughter was asleep and when she woke up and saw the house set asked: Where is Santa? —Jorge & Yulia V., Panama City, Panama
