Oftentimes, furniture shopping can feel nearly as painful as car buying – a lengthy process that can leave customers over budget and unsatisfied. Enter the Dawson family’s reinvention of J&K Home Furnishings. Twelve years ago, Chuck Dawson acquired J&K with a vision to revolutionize the home furnishing market in the Lowcountry. His goal was to be more than just a furniture and mattress store, instead offering a complete design experience from start to finish.
With knowledgeable, experienced and customer-oriented associates and interior designers, J&K Home Furnishings offers everything from à la carte shopping to full-service design solutions; top to bottom, start to finish. Customers can purchase individual pieces, full-room sets or work alongside a designer who helps bring their vision to life through every step of the design process.
John Hanna, J&K’s design director and senior buyer, explained, “We offer options for all tastes and ages, all demographics and all budgets. As far as style goes, the sky is the limit!” Their design process is simple and practical, yet distinctly different from anything currently offered in the market. For a low fee of $250 – which is credited back to any purchase over $5,000 within a year – customers unlock a world of design possibilities. With more than 20 designers to choose from, clients can curate the perfect room or an entire home with professional guidance.
In addition to furniture, J&K offers an extensive variety of mattress brands, ranging from Tempur-Pedic and Stearns & Foster to Avocado, as well as their own custom line. Adding to the appeal of the design experience and mattress selection process, each designer’s professional biography is featured on the company’s website, allowing customers to select the individual best aligned with their vision.
Among its many accomplishments, J&K Home Furnishings proudly holds the distinction of being named the No. 1 independent retailer in the nation for Bassett. Known for their solid wood, Appalachian-sourced furniture, Bassett is also manufactured in the U.S. Through this partnership J&K not only offers a 30-day turnaround for Bassett orders, but also customization options in both upholstery and wood case pieces.
While accommodating so many styles, budgets and lifestyles in one store may seem daunting, J&K Home Furnishings manages it with ease. Their tiered pricing structure, ranging from “promo” to “best,” allows them to meet the needs of every customer. From new graduates seeking stylish yet durable starter furniture, to retirees searching for beautiful and affordable heirloom pieces, J&K offers something for every stage of life. Even families with children can shop confidently, with options designed for the phase of life when purchasing anything shiny and new can feel intimidating. These offerings are available across seven convenient store locations, from Little River to Mount Pleasant.
No matter your taste, price point or level of design experience, the associates at J&K Home Furnishings are excited to help you choose furniture, mattresses or a complete design ensemble that meets your needs and desires. Their mission is simple: take the headache out of furniture shopping and turn it into an experience that’s enjoyable and even fun.
