All the Furniture Stores in Cincinnati are not Alike

A lot of furniture chains sell similar merchandise, and, unfortunately, much of it is not good quality. But there’s a place you might not have considered for comfortable, well-crafted home furnishings: Legacies Upscale Resale in Hyde Park Plaza. We sell antique, classic, Mid-Century Modern and contemporary pieces you won’t find elsewhere. The word “upscale” describes our merchandise well; while it is second-hand, we only take items in excellent condition that will add flair to customers’ homes. For solid, durable tables, dining room sets, couches, cabinets and more, you owe it to yourself to try Legacies. Every item is one-of-a-kind, and buying used is good for the environment. Some of the brands we carry increase in value over time: we often have Stickley, Henkel Harris, Drexel Heritage, Century, Ethan Allenand Baker on the floor. Of all the places you could shop furniture in Cincinnati, Legacies is worth a look.
