In Short
These popular emporiums sell more furniture per square foot than any other retailer in the country for a reason: each store packs in a breathtaking variety of beds, chairs, desks, lamps, rugs, etc., all at unbeatable prices. Visits to the chain's kid-friendly stores in Natick (with its Imax theater) and Avon (with its free motion-simulator ride) ensure that parents can shop for a new dining room set without Junior complaining of boredom.
