Anyone order furniture from Behrs?

I went yesterday and we saw a few pieces we liked. They told me to order furniture 8-12 Weeks before my due date. Does that seem like a long time?

It depends on the manufacturer more than the store. Some manufacturers they actually recommend up to 18 weeks prior to whn you need it.

I was satisfied wth Behr's and their service.

I orderded at the end of september and was originally told it would be in by january. I called the MFG just to check the status for the heck of it and they told me that they crib will be in oct 28 and the dresser nov 11. So lets see if they keep to their word. I ordered so early because the only negative thing i did hear about the place is that turn around time is not the best. Behrs is willing to hold on to it even it comes in to early and were not ready and they are also give 100% refund if god forbid something happens to baby. HTH

I ordered my furniture in Sept and was due in January. Half of it didn't come until after DD was born I'd order as soon as possible.

NO it doesn't depending on the brand. I got a pali crib and dresser from them last time. I ordered it in January (DD was due 6/30 - she came on 6/20). The dresser came in around beginning of May (we had told them we wanted the furniture to come beginning to the middle of May). I was told that they thought DD would come early - so I was hoping to get the furniture in sooner. The crib was running late - it came in time but much later than we said we wanted it. Some of the manufacturers take longer than others. You have nothing to lose by ordering it early. They hold the furniture for you with no charge for as long as you need them to. They delivered it very quickly when I was ready for it. They did an excellent job with assembling the crib and overall we were very happy with them.

I highly recommend them.

etd to add - we bought DC #2 furniture there last week - we went to get a budget together to buy in Jan - but they had a Munire set we loved for 60% less than we paid for DD's stuff (convertible crib - goes to a toddler than full size - was $350) - they gave us 10% off for Columbus day weekend. They told us the money was 100% refundable (in case god forbid something were to happen). They again will hold it for free until we want it.

I ordered my furniture from Behrs and was very happy with them.

I actually just ordered my DD's toddler furniture from them and they said it will be in next week. They originally said 6-8 weeks and they were right.

Another thing they do which I really liked, if you don't know the sex of your baby, you can order both boy & girl bedding, you pay for one and they'll ship both choices. Therefore, once your child is born, your gender bedding is available.
