A Pet-Friendly Sectional at Wallaroo’s
At Wallaroo’s, you might notice many pieces of our furniture are named after people. That’s only partially because we’re overly attached to furniture! The only thing we care about more than furniture is our family, friends, and beloved pets! That’s why so many of our pieces are named after our loved ones. This week, we’d like to highlight our brown, pet-friendly sectional, the Yoko. Nathan and Bailee named it after their furry friend, Yoko! The Source of our Inspiration Nathan and Bailee rescued Yoko from Higher Ground Animal Sanctuary in Mead, Washington. Higher Ground’s mission is to rescue and provide sanctuary for homeless animals and other animals in need to offer a place of refuge. Their goal is to create a better rescue culture and a better world for animals. If you’re not looking to provide a forever home at the moment, maybe you’ll consider donating to Higher Ground – it’s a tough world for non-profits. Yoko is part Mastiff and the couple was told she would be BIG – but, sometimes big surprises come in little packages and Yoko capped out at 55lbs. Bailee had this to say about Yoko: “You never know what you’ll get when you adopt a rescue, but we always say we won the rescue lottery because she is the sweetest dog who loves our son Vincent. She’s patient, protective, and lovely. The Details To show their appreciation for all Yoko provides to their lives, they developed a pet-friendly couch. The Yoko is made of a non-woven fabric that will not attract or hold on to pet hair. It’s hardwood frame and dense foam make it a durable, play-time friendly option for all pet owners. There’s an estimated 70 million stray animals in the country and only about 7 million make their way into animal shelters each year. If you’re in the position to provide a forever home for an animal in the future, please consider adopting and providing for an animal in need.

Budget Friendly Furniture: How to Maximize Your Tax Refund with Wallaroo’s
Want budget friendly furniture this tax season? So do these dudes. Tax season, for many of us, is filled with the joys of splurging on some new items we’ve been waiting for all year. Maybe you’re going to pick up a new bike for the kids in preparation for spring or maybe you’re going to spend it on a nice dinner. Maybe, you’re in the market for some new furniture! One thing we’re passionate about at Wallaroo’s is making sure our customers get the hottest deal possible on our furniture. This means you won’t need to blow your whole refund at Wallaroo’s, since we already have a wide variety of budget friendly furniture. That means you’ll have some fun money left over. The Natasha Storage Bed Budget friendly and practical! If you’re living in an apartment, duplex or small home, effective storage is essential, so you may be in the market for a storage bed. However, many of our competitor’s storage beds, like this one at Pottery Barn, have limited size and are overpriced. With our unique hydraulic design, you won’t be limited to storing only what can fit in the drawers. Check out the Natasha here! Pottery Barn’s Price for a Queen: $1,519 Wallaroo’s Price for a King: $380 Savings: $1,139 With that amount of savings you could buy a top of the line 65″ Ultra HD Smart LED NanoCell TV for $900 to catch the March Madness games on and still go out for a pretty fancy dinner! Accent Chairs Affordable and chic! Maybe your living room is feeling a little stale and you need a new accent piece to liven things up. Wallaroo’s has great prices on accent chairs – especially compared to large national stores. Check out our Madison accent chair compared to this similar design from Ashley Furniture. Ashley’s Furniture Price: $809 Wallaroo’s Price: $349 Savings: $460 With an extra $460 you could snag this sweet Wood Pellet Grill & Smoker and have an ample budget for a sweet cookout — Spring is just around the corner, after all. Talk about budget friendly furniture! Cloud Modular Sectionals The perfect price for any home! Ensuring maximum comfort at a killer price for every Wallaroo’s customer is our number one priority. One of our hottest deals is on our affordable and super comfortable Bliss Luxe. With a modular, easy to clean design, every family can share their evenings together relaxing on a Bliss. If you’ve got a smaller living space, we’ve got a petite version as well. It simply blows this similar model from Restoration Hardware out of the water. Restoration Hardware Price: $1271 Wallaroo’s Price: $420 Savings: $851 With an extra $851 hanging around, you could buy a few Mongoose Mountain Bikes for the family to make sure you get your exercise in, since it’ll be a lot harder to get off the couch with the Bliss around. Fine Dining on a Budget Modern living requires flexibility and utility – that includes your dining table! With 6 pieces, an extendable leaf, and a bench that can work in your entryway, this isn’t your Grandma’s dining table (though we’re sure it’s very nice). Our Modern 6-Piece Dining Set makes this similar model by WayFair seem like a joke! Wayfair Price: $999 Wallroo’s Price: $578 Savings: $421 With a chunk of change like that you could complete deck out your dining situation with top of line stoneware, flatware, placemats, and a fresh centerpiece to tie the room together – and still have money leftover! Hanging Egg Chairs Don’t hang around other stores waiting for a deal. With Easter just around the corner, you might have eggs on the brain! If you’d like to lounge in luxury this spring, our Indoor / Outdoor Hanging Egg chair is just the thing for you. And hey, even if it’s a rainy day, it’s easy to move for some indoor lounging. Sure, you could snag this model from Island Gale, but you’d be paying over double the price. Island Gale Price: $698 Wallaroo’s Price: $300 Savings: $398 After saving that much, you could deck out the rest of your backyard with a fire pit, tiki torches (no rallies please), and even a pool! Sounds like you’re on your way to a little slice of heaven right at home! At Wallaroo’s Furniture and Mattresses, our prices are so good that we don’t run sales often. You might see other big box stores running huge deals, but our business model is factory-direct, budget friendly furniture. This tax season, stop by Wallaroo’s and save!

Wallaroo’s Furniture and Mattresses – Who We Are and Why
From Student to Business Man At Wallaroo’s Furniture and Mattresses, we have a passion for bringing the hottest deals to the Pacific Northwest. While we love all forms of furniture, we specialize in a wide selection of high-end mattresses and furniture. We offer these items to our customers for the lowest price possible. This is due to our unique, factory-direct sourcing. We’re able to create affordable, Wallaroo’s exclusive furniture that is higher quality and at a better price than our competitors. Wallaroo’s began in 2014, during owner Nathan Chetrit’s senior year at Gonzaga University. As an accounting student, Nathan used his number crunching abilities and business savvy to flip furniture. By mid-2014, he was able to open a small warehouse, which was only open on the weekends. Business is all about supply and demand, and his furniture and mattresses were in demand. After thinking on it, he decided to unenroll from his Master’s program at Gonzaga University and work at the shop every day. Unexpected and Exciting Growth Through the PNW This business eventually became Spokane Overstock — the predecessor of Wallaroo’s Furniture and Mattresses. Spokane Overstock specialized in selling high-end overstock from companies like Home Depot and Macy’s. Eventually, Nathan branched out into selling factory-direct mattresses from Serta and Simmons. Nathan worked as the only salesman for the first two years and learned the importance of customer satisfaction. This is a core value of Wallaroo’s. We ensure our customers leave Wallaroo’s and Spokane Overstock stores happy. Sure, there will always be mistakes, but Nathan insists we find a solution that will thrill the customer. As business was booming, Spokane Overstock opened its first storefront in 2015. Nathan was able to begin importing new furniture from his suppliers. Nathan also began curating his unique approach to sales culture—without massive price tags and middlemen to keep happy, pushy sales folk seemed unnecessary. Instead, we focus on offering the best value in town and letting the furniture sell itself. Our sales folk focus on ensuring our customers find items that fit their needs and aesthetic. From the moment you enter our doors to the moment we drop your furniture off at your home, we want to ensure you are 100% satisfied with your experience. Finding Love and Success The next few years were spent growing, expanding, and evolving. In 2017, Nathan opened Coeur d’Alene Overstock, followed by locations in Boise and Missoula in 2018. By mid 2018, having moved away from selling overstock from Macy’s and Home Depot, the company was ready for a change in brand. Thus, Wallaroo’s was born. Around this time, Nathan met the love of his life, Bailee, and began a new adventure as a family man. Since Nathan met Bailee, she has been an integral part of the business and her eye for design can be seen in many of our pieces, like this one! The couple has two children and are passionate about ensuring every family has access to affordable furniture. 2019 was filled with new challenges and adventures. While already purchasing directly from manufacturers abroad, Nathan values in person communication and meeting face to face. This meant a trip abroad to China to meet with his business partners and discuss the future and determine how to navigate Tariffs. In 2020, Wallaroo’s is excited to move forward. With locations in Spokane, Boise, Coeur d’Alene, and Missoula, we’re looking to branch out nationally within the next 5 years. We’ll be updating this blog weekly on Thursdays with tips and tricks for purchasing furniture, more information about the Wallaroo’s story, and features on our Wallaroo’s exclusive items. If you’re interested in exclusive deals and content, be sure to subscribe to our monthly newsletter!

Two Must-Have Corner Sectionals
When talking about different kinds of sectionals, we usually differentiate them based on their shape. There are U-shaped sectionals and L-shaped sectionals, both of which are pretty self-explanatory based on their names! There are also modular sectionals, but that’s a topic for another day. Corner sectionals fit into the L-shaped sectional category, but instead of having a chaise that makes the “L-shape” the seats go along both sides and fit nicely into a corner. Corner sectionals are large, and comfy. Fit for the whole family! Today we’re going over Wallaroo’s Two Must-Have Corner Sectionals. Keep reading to learn more! Raleigh Bench Seat Sectional First up, the Raleigh. The Raleigh is made up of two large bench seat cushions with a corner piece in the middle. No cracks to lose your loose change in! With pocketed coil, down-wrapped high-density foam cushions, and a solid kiln-dried oak wood frame, this sectional is as sturdy and durable as it is beautiful! The gorgeous hardwood frame accents, and bolster pillows add to the overall style and design of this piece. The Raleigh is available in a cream polyester upholstery, or a gray velvet upholstery. Jovi Studded Sectional Next we have the Jovi. If you love the look of the Raleigh but are looking for something a little smaller to fit your space better, the Jovi may be right for you! Similar to the Raleigh, the Jovi also has pocketed coil, down-wrapped high-density foam cushions, 100% polyester upholstery, and a solid kiln-dried oak wood frame. This corner sectional features unique studded detailing down the armrests giving it a chic and elevated look
