Gift Guide for Him

Tue, 12 Nov 2019 19:30:00 +0000

There's no one type of dad, brother, boyfriend, husband or, best bud. There's football dad, your techy brother, the aspiring chef, and everything in between. So we racked our brains to come up with the best gifts for the many, many different types of men you might be shopping for. Here are our top gifts for the men in your life, ranging from bargain finds to over-the-top splurges.

For the modern minimalist.

This classic mid-century modern chair feels of-the-moment draped in sleek, gray leather that only improves with age. Bonus: it looks great virtually anywhere.

Petra Leather Chair

For the reclining classicist.

For the guy on the go, the perfect place to slow. This longtime customer favorite offers fully customized comfort with an adjustable footrest, headrest, and lumbar support. In other words, push-button everything, plus built-in USB ports for convenient charging.

Walnut 3-Power Recliner

For the guy who wants an Eames vibe without the price tag.

A walnut finish and cool, breathable performance fabric team up in this handsome, compact recliner. Make it the perfect addition to his living room, den, man-cave or office.

JavaChair and Ottoman

For your top chef.

Keep those tasty meals coming. Give your favorite weekend chef/bartender a loving nudge with this perfect workspace/storage/seating combo. Is this really a self-gift in disguise? Maybe . . .

Stone Kitchen Island and 2 Swivel Stools

For the guy who commutes in his slippers.

A sleek, urban-industrial desk to dress up his home office. Sturdy, spacious, and warm, we love the display shelf built into the back.

Starmore Desk

For the avid collector.

Don't call them toys, they're collectibles. And this warm, industrial-modern bookshelf will show them off in style. A gunmetal frame and deep, walnut-finished shelves make anything you throw at them look intentional and completely elevated.

Starmore Bookcase

For the guy you want to get cozy with.

Go on, get toasty this winter. Gift him (and you) the inviting look and feel of real flames at the touch of a button. Just tuck your soundbar into the open shelving, crank up the Barry White and prepare to cuddle.

Barrett 70" Fireplace Console

For your favorite binge-watcher.

Call it man-cave cool. That's a thing, right? The Salida collection has the rustic-modern look down with distressed wood and a substantial, clean-lined silhouette. We love it in a living room, den, or bedroom - basically everywhere you're watching TV.

Salida Console

For the dedicated gamer.

Yeah, this is a splurge. But this seating (let's NOT call it a loveseat) puts him in the driver's seat with power everything, light-up cupholders, USB ports, built-in lighting and storage in the center console and armrests. Oh, and heck yeah it's comfy.

Racer 2-Power Loveseat

For the host making the most of a small space.

This is a grown-up transformer for those who love to have friends over but don't have a lot of room. When compact, it makes a great entryway or sofa table. Unfold it for a small-scale bar, card-table or workspace.

Rainier Folding Table + 2 Stools

For the guy who wants a great night's sleep without breaking the bank.

Gift him (and you) a better night's sleep. After 42 years in the mattress biz, we finally created one of our own to bring you the latest in sleep technology (we're talking cool, personalized comfort) at our guaranteed low prices. That makes this mattress upgrade a mega steal.

SleepMor Splendor Mattress

For the guy with a squad.

This is a table made for living: poker night, game day, and everything in between. Durable and expandable with comfy, easy-to-clean stools, this set isn't fancy. It's exactly what you want when the whole gang's coming over.

New Haven Counter-Height Table + 4 Stools

For the man who deserves some aaaahhhhhh.

Ok, this one's a mega splurge. But if you can swing it, this massager is life-changing (so much so that we regularly sneak down to the showroom to give it another *cough* test-run). We were skeptical when we first sat down in this hi-tech, space-age machine. But 15 minutes of head-to-toe massaging left us utterly blissful. Feet, legs, arms, hands, and of course back, neck and shoulders all get the royal treatment, which you can personalize from an easy-to-use touchpad. It's an amazing end-of-day de-stressor and highly recommended for anyone who works on their feet all day.

C9000 Massage Chair

Gift Guide for Her

Tue, 12 Nov 2019 19:14:00 +0000

There's no one type of mom, sister, girlfriend, gal pal. There's CEO mom, your sis the cook, the style maven best friend and everything in between. So we racked our brains to come up with the best gifts for the many, many different types of women you might be shopping for. Here are our top 12 picks for the women in your life, ranging from bargain finds to over-the-top splurges.

For your favorite couch potato.

Treat her to the coziest winter nights. We love the multiple remote-controlled fireplace settings and built-in Bluetooth speakers that give movie night that little something extra.

Ashford 70" Fireplace Console

For the woman who needs more hygge in her life.

The Harbour console brings a touch of comfort, coziness, and conviviality wherever you put it. Sure, it's a TV console, but it doesn't look like one. So go ahead and warm up her dining room, bedroom or office. She'll thank you all winter long.

Harbour 70" Fireplace Console

For the woman who's leaning in.

Elevate her home office with a spacious, beautifully crafted desk. Vintage-inspired hardware adds style points while cord management keeps things tidy.

Bellamy Desk

For the aspiring chef.

Gift your favorite Iron Chef a little extra space to prep and entertain. Is this really a self-gift in disguise? Maybe . . .

Stone Kitchen Island and 2 Swivel Stools

For the woman who deserves to kick up her feet.

For the woman on the go, go, go, the perfect place to slooooow - an ultra-comfortable recliner that doesn't look like, well, a recliner. We love its compact footprint, rich leather, and decorative nailhead trim.

Alston Pushback Chair

For the woman with too much stuff.

Maybe she doesn't have that Marie Kondo thing down yet? Gift her a pretty place to stash her things. Skyy is technically a "media cabinet," but we love it for entryways, dining or living rooms. Plus it comes in a range of sizes and colors.

Skyy Media Cabinet

For the woman who likes to curl up with the perfect book.

The perfect library chair, scaled perfectly for her. Because self-care can mean indulging in the latest fiction and a snifter of brandy while luxuriating in the richest caramel leather. Amirite?

Celeste Leather Chair

For the savvy collector.

An inviting, minimalist way to display the things that spark her joy. Well priced but completely rich-looking, this bookcase fits in effortlessly amid farmhouse, coastal, industrial, or transitional vibes.

Forestmin Tall Bookcase

For the woman who's always changing up her look.

She's a chronic re-decorator? Our favorite mult-tasker spiffies up an entryway, doubles as seating and a coffee table in your living room, and looks great by the foot of a bed. But we're sure she'll think of even more inventive uses for it.

Leather Tuft Bench

For that understated woman who loves sparkle and shine.

This pair of gold nesting tables bridges the gap between minimalist and glam. Because sometimes all you need to go from prepped to polished is a small touch of shimmer and shine.

Mejaci Nesting Tables

For the woman who loves her beauty rest.

She takes her sleep seriously but doesn't want to gamble on an online-only mattress-in-a-box. Enter the SleepMor mattress. After 42 years in the mattress biz, we finally created one of our own to give her the latest in sleep technology (we're talking cool, personalized comfort) at our guaranteed low prices. And yes, this mattress does come in a box. So you can take a dramatic unboxing video and share the glory of your new bed unfolding with the world.

SleepMor Splendor Mattress

For the woman who deserves some aaaahhhhhh.

She's a nurse, a chef, a landscaper, a mom-in-chief. In other words, this lady doesn't stop. She deserves this life-changing (yep, we said it) SPLURGE. We regularly sneak down to the showroom to *cough* test-run this massager because the 15-minute customizable head-to-toe treatment is shockingly restorative. Does she NEED this substantial, space-aged machine in her house? No, probably not. Will she be instantly and insanely grateful after giving it a whirl? Abso-freaking-lutely.

Gift Guide for Kids

Tue, 12 Nov 2019 19:14:00 +0000

There's no one type of kid. There's the adventurer, the non-stop reader, the social butterfly, the athlete, and everything in between. So we racked our brains to come up with the best gifts for the many, many different types of kids you might be shopping for. Here are our top picks for the kids you love ranging from bargain finds to over-the-top splurges.

For their big imagination.

Bring the outdoors in with this treehouse retreat. It's the perfect spot to let their imagination run wild, curl up with a favorite book, and snuggle up at night.

Playhouse Bed

For the kid who loves to vrooooom.

If you grew up in the '80s watching Silver Spoons, this is the bed you dreamed of. Except our 2019 version might be even better with light-up "rotating" wheels, a back-lit carriage and an array of racecar sounds. Where will it take you, er, your kid?

Racecar Bed

For your little adventurer.

Invite your kid to sail into slumber - you know, after they've swashbuckled and unearthed that long-lost treasure, of course.

Pirate Bed

For the kid who wants a do-everything retreat.

Our most popular bedroom of all time: it's a loft hideaway, a workstation, and a playspace all with built-in storage for books and clothes. Also available in gray and cinnamon in stores.

Young Pioneer Loft Twin Bed

For tweens, teens and beyond.

This bedroom is a fan favorite because it has room for EVERYTHING. Truly, we managed to stash hockey equipment in those under-bed drawers! We love it because its understated style will take your child through teen-dom and beyond.

Remi Queen Storage Bed

For the kid who's always ready for a slumber party.

You've always got room with a bunk bed built for 3. Built-in stairs with storage make getting up and down a breeze.

Harlow Twin over Twin Bunk with Trundle

For the kid who's always changing their style.

Fads come and go, but this wildly affordable bedroom is a classic. Its timeless design looks great with everything from comic book posters to Tiger Beat magazine covers without ever looking too little kid-ish.

What is the Best Furniture for Living in a Small Apartment?

Mon, 11 Nov 2019 17:32:06 +0000

If you're looking for small apartment furniture ideas, you've come to just the right place. Here at Mor Furniture for Less, we're experts in all aspects of design, for spaces big and small. There's no room that we can't tackle and no home that we can't style with the vision of your dreams.

When searching for the best furniture for a small apartment, there are a few key elements to keep in mind to ensure that your space looks clean and not cluttered. Let our design experts assist you in finding just the right pieces to furnish your apartment.

Create the Illusion of More Space

One of the most common questions we hear from customers who live in small apartments is, "How can I make it look like I have more space?" There are ways to accomplish this, and it's simpler than you may think. Follow these do's and don'ts, and you'll be feeling like you're in a grand room in no time.

Stay Away From Dark Walls

Resist the urge to paint those walls a deep mulberry red; trust us. Dark colors on all the walls of a small apartment can make it feel cramped and deprived of light. Instead, stick to lighter neutrals like shades of blue, gray, green, or cream. These lighter colors will open up the room, giving it an airy feel.

If you just have to have that deep color on the walls, choose one accent wall and limit the color to that. You'll still get the pop you're looking for without making the room feel closed off.

Choose an Accent Color

When you're looking for the best furniture for a small apartment, accent colors can go a long way. Adding accent colors is an excellent opportunity to add some bold colors to the room without causing an overwhelming effect.

Select from a wide array of home accentsat Mor Furniture for Less to complement your space. Choose from bright throw pillows or colorful wall hangingsto add the hues you're looking for. Adding these touches to your apartment can make it feel cozier and less bland, no matter how limited on space you may be.

Add Mirrors to the Room

No matter how small an apartment may be, mirrors can help add a feeling of space and dimension to make the rooms seem larger. Your rooms will also appear brighter as the mirror reflects light throughout the space. Try to find a mirror that's flat and sleek, opposed to something more bulky with a large frame.

To make the most of the space in your apartment, hang the mirror on the wall instead of taking up valuable floor area. Above the sofa is the perfect place to hang a mirror. It will look clean and also add an element of decoration to the room, without clashing with accent colors or furniture.

Additionally, you can add home accents such as coffee table trays with mirrored bottoms for an extra touch, or reflective decorative bowls.

Find Multi-Function Furniture

When looking for small apartment furniture ideas, you'll want to keep the need for storage in mind. Chances are that even if you live in a small space, you still have a lot of stuff. Where do you stash it? Clutter is one of the main culprits of making a small space seem even smaller. However, there's a solution.

Find multi-function furniture. Multi-function furniture is any piece that serves two purposes. Consider a bed with built-in storage underneath or a coffee table that comes complete with drawers. This will give you more places to put your items out of sight, to keep your apartment as decluttered as possible.

You can also add storage to places that don't already have it. Consider adding matching storage bins or boxes to bookshelves for even more secret hiding spots.

Furnish Your Apartment with Matching Items

Like the concept of clutter, having rooms full of mismatched items can cause your small apartment to appear disorganized, making it feel smaller. Find a matching living room set for a cohesive look. This is your chance to add more rich color to your apartment if you'd like, by going with a deep, but still neutral, brown color.

Try Pendant Lighting

Adding pendant lights may not be possible based on where you live, but if possible, try to use hanging lights. They won't take up space on tables and nightstands, which gives you more room and less clutter. For the best results, try pendant lighting that is minimal in design but still makes a statement.

Finding the Best Furniture for a Small Apartment

It may seem challenging to decorate a small space, but it doesn't have to be. Here at Mor Furniture for Less, we have design associates on staff who will take the time to discuss your needs and vision with you, and help you develop the best floor plan for your apartment.

The Perfect Bedroom Furniture for Twins

Mon, 28 Oct 2019 17:49:50 +0000

Having twins means that you have to find two of everything, including the perfect bedroom furniture. Whether your twins share a bedroom or have rooms of their own, you know by now that finding the perfect items for each of your individually unique children can be quite the challenge. Mor Furniture for Less is a family-owned company, and we're committed to helping your family find the perfect furniture to meet your custom needs.

Bunk Beds for Twins

Since twins can be inseparable, bunk beds can be the perfect option for bedroom furniture. If you're trying to save on space without sacrificing quality and style, bunk beds for twins may be the way to go. Whether you're looking for something rustic and natural, with a neutral wood grain, or for something sleek and modern, in white, gray, or black, we have bunk beds your twins are sure to love.

With twins, not only do you need two beds, but you also need room for twice the amount of clothing and personal items. We've got you covered. Our bunk beds with additional storage make for excellent space savers. And what about sleepovers? No need to worry. A bunk bed with a pull-out trundle for a third guest is here to save the day.

With pieces that are sure to meet the style of any room, you can find the best bunk beds for twins at Mor Furniture for Less.

Finding the Perfect Furniture for Twins with Separate Rooms

Not all twins share rooms, which can make hunting for furniture even more difficult. But it doesn't have to be. There's something for everyone at Mor Furniture for Less. Whether you have a little pirate who needs a sailor bed, complete with flag and all, or a little princess who needs a sweetheart bed that's fit for royalty, you can find the best furniture for your twins at the best prices. Finish the sweetheart look with a multi-color sequin lamp, to really give her the sparkle she deserves and a Clarisse love throw and Lorain heart pillow to make sure she stays warm, comfy, and cozy.

What's even better is that our selections don't stop once you've purchased a bed. We know that parents are often looking to furnish an entire bedroom. Our furniture for kids and teens can be paired with matching sets, including dressers, mirrors, night stands, chests, and more. We take the guess work out of furniture hunting. You'll find everything right in one place.

Accessorizing the Perfect Bedroom for Twins

Once you've got the basics covered, a bed and the major furniture pieces, you'll want to customize the room(s) to match your twins' style. Home accents are essential in any living space, and bedrooms are deeply personal reflections of personalities, hobbies, and interests. Accessorize your twins' bedroom(s) to match who they are. From lighting to decorations, and area rugs to wall hangings, find everything to create your twins' perfect room.

Nature Accents

Is one of your twins a nature fanatic? Adorn the walls with art that showcases the serenity and beauty that can be found deep in the woods, or place a decorative animal accent in just the right spot. Maybe you're looking for flower art, or an elephant rug. These small additions can help your twin express who they really are, at a price you can't refuse. With bright color schemes or neutral tones, there are accents to match the style of any bedroom.

Accents for Passions, Hobbies, and Interests

Is your other twin obsessed with outer space? No problem. We have accessories to match that theme, too. Does your teen need some motivation in the mornings? Our wall art can help. What about those kids who just love to learn? Add a decorative map to the wall or a spinning globe to their desk to reflect their passion. No matter what your child's style and interests are, you can find the furniture to match them, all in one place.

For Sports Fanatics

Maybe your child or teen isn't into pirates, but dreams of being an all-star player one day. No matter what your twin's passion is, you'll be able to find something to create the bedroom of their dreams. Try small touches like a decorative baseball pillow. Better yet, if one twin loves baseball and the other outer space, our accessories are neutral enough that you can get both without clashing color schemes.

Shopping for Twins Made Easy

Shopping for bedroom furniture for twins doesn't have to be a nightmare that sends you hunting all around town. With bunk beds for twins, full bedroom sets, and all the accessories to match, Mor Furniture for Less provides a one-stop-shop for parents and kids alike. Come in to one of our show rooms and let our friendly associates help you find exactly what you're looking for quickly.
