Meet the Member: Furniture Affair
Furniture Affair is a unique home furnishings store that partners with Arizona home builders to pack up their model homes and then offer the model home furnishings directly to customers. They are a family-owned and Arizona-based small business that opened their first showroom in Phoenix in 1989. They work with a wide range of customers, from families furnishing their own home all the way to designers furnishing client projects. Their sales team knows the floor inside and out and can help customers navigate their ever-changing inventory. They aim to create a welcoming, no-pressure environment where people can take their time, explore, and find pieces they love. They look forward to bringing this unique experience to Mesa with the launch of their new showroom opening at the end of June 2025.
One thing that sets Furniture Affairs apart is how they source their furniture. They’ve built strong relationships with builders across the Valley so they're able to bring in a variety of items — from budget-friendly basics to high-end designer pieces. Everything is priced 40–80% off retail. They also offer same-day delivery through a local delivery service, which makes it easy for customers to take home what they find right away. Their store has a bit of a “treasure hunt” feel (people often compare it to a jungle) and they've learned to embrace that.
Taylor & Sara
Owners of Furniture Affair
Furniture Affair has been around for over 35 years. Over time, they've expanded their network of builder partners, increased their showroom space to fit in larger amounts of inventory, and adapted to meet customer needs. In 2024, they launched an online store where you can find a curated selection of their overall inventory. Now, they are very excited to open their pop-up showroom in Mesa, which will open at the end of June 2025.
Taylor and Sara, owners of Furniture Affair, are looking forward to connecting with more people in Mesa through their new location and being part of the local business community. One recent project that really meant a lot to them as a team was working with Woodside Homes and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to help organize the St. Jude Dream Home — a fully furnished home that was raffled off to raise funds for families receiving care through St. Jude.
It wasn’t just a chance to showcase furniture — it was an opportunity for their team to come together and create a space that felt warm, welcoming, and full of life for an important cause. It reflected a lot of what they care about as a business: working collaboratively, showing up for their community, and using their skills to make a positive impact. They were honored to be part of it and hope to continue supporting meaningful projects like this in the future.
Company Values
Taylor and Sara value hospitality, honesty, and teamwork. Hospitality means creating a relaxed, friendly space where people feel comfortable shopping — even if they’re just browsing. Honesty is about being transparent with pricing and the condition of their items. And teamwork is essential to how they operate, especially given how quickly their inventory moves and the unpredictable nature of their business.
