Walker’s Furniture Opens in Ponderay

The furniture in your home is a reflection of your sense of style and personality. It might be bold and trendy or classic and comfy. Like buying a home or car, people tend to visit multiple locations when choosing a new mattress, sofa, dining room table or bed frame. Neighbors in and around Sandpoint are now fortunate to find even more options with the grand opening of a new Walker’s Furniture location.

Like many small businesses, Walker’s Furniture started off as a single store with big dreams. It opened in 1980 specializing in solid oak furniture, and over the past 35 years has grown into one of the region’s best-known spots for furnishing your home. Located in the Bonner Mall between Yoke’s and Staples, the Ponderay location is the most recent to open, bringing with it a huge selection of dining, living and bedroom furniture as well as home office and accent pieces in addition to many new good paying jobs for Bonner County job seekers. Walker’s now has locations across Oregon, Washington and Idaho in communities like Coeur d’Alene, Spokane, Yakima, Walla Walla, Pendleton and Milton-Freewater. With a massive central warehouse and a vast network of stores, the piece you’re looking for is likely just a phone call away.

The term “Sleep Technology” seems to be popping up on TV, radio and print more and more, and it’s no surprise. Mattress manufacturers are continuing to improve support through varying levels of memory foam, comfort coils, latex, gel, hybrid materials and even adjustable settings. All this can add up to one big headache, and the added pressure of a pushy salesperson can put you in the wrong mattress with buyer’s regret. Walker’s carries a wide range of mattresses for all budgets and sales staffs are trained to have the customers lie down and relax for several minutes so you can really see how the mattress supports you once you’ve settled in.

Whether it’s a futon for your son or daughter who is going off to college, bunk beds for the kids, a sectional for your new entertainment room or a dining room table that simply says “wow,” it’s important to shop around and make the right decision. With the new Walker’s location now open, you have one more spot to compare and find the perfect piece for you.
