The Dump Finds: Interior Designer Snags Hidden Gem Accent Chair

When I first heard about The Dump, a luxury furniture store wasn't the first concept that came to mind. The name conjured images of throwaway pieces and mismatched castoffs – a real dump! But as I dug deeper, I learned just how wrong I was.

In actuality, The Dump is a hidden furniture gem and family business. It's a luxe outlet franchise packed with incredible finds, designer brands, and unbelievable deals. They have everything from sprawling sectionals to hand-woven rugs, all at a mere fraction of their original price (I'm talking up to 90% off). Whether shopping online or in one of their stores, you can always find something unique! 

So when my good friend, interior designer Kyle Schuneman, told me he was hunting for the perfect accent chair, I knew exactly where he should look. Because The Dump has an ever-changing stock, this challenge wasn't just about finding a chair. It was about discovering a hidden treasure at one of the best-kept secrets in designer furniture shopping.

The Dump Furniture Store: Designer Quality & Bargain Prices

I’ve been around the block when it comes to furniture shopping. And if you’ve got a bit of skepticism around discount stores, trust me, I get it. But there’s something different about The Dump. Some discount stores carry made-for-outlet pieces with lower-quality materials, built and sold cheaply – not The Dump. They source from overstock, dissolving businesses, and directly from the designer. Each piece is made with top-quality materials, hand-selected to be sold by The Dump's furniture experts.

First Impressions: Skepticism Meets Surprise

Convincing Kyle to look at The Dump started as a tricky sell, but The Couch Whisperer never backs down from a challenge! I knew that if I could get him to see beyond the unusual name, he'd be amazed by what they had to offer.

"When you first told me to go to The Dump, I was surprised because I had never heard of it. I might have seen a commercial once, but I never considered it an option for me. I was a little horrified at first,” Kyle said.

However, walking into The Dump, he encountered the unexpected: high-end designer pieces at a fraction of the price typically expected. He was stunned by the quality and the brands available—brands he usually sourced for clients with much bigger budgets.

“I thought it would be full of typical suburban basement furniture, but when I opened the doors, the first thing I saw was a designer brand I recognized—the same one my clients buy from!" Kyle remarked.

Finding the Perfect Designer Chair from The Dump

With his anxiety quelled Kyle was ready to explore The Dump. And this was no casual browse. He had a mission: find the perfect designer chair for his immaculate loft living room. As an interior design expert, his standards were sky-high, so the chair he was after needed to check all his specific boxes:

• Looked great from every angle
• Durable enough for daily use
• Affordable and high-quality

It turns out The Dump had just what he needed! Kyle came across a stunning chair from The Dump by esteemed designers Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams. It was wrapped in genuine leather, featured a full swivel, and looked fantastic from every angle—perfect for his open loft.

It was the ideal blend of style, quality, and affordability we’d been searching for. It ticked every box on his list, and came with the pedigree of true designer quality—something you don’t expect to find at such a discounted price.

And the best part? There was no waiting. Unlike other stores that might keep you waiting months for delivery, The Dump had it available right there and then. Kyle could take home his Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams chair that same day—no hassle.  

For Kyle, the whole experience perfectly showcased why The Dump is such a unique destination. It's a place where incredible deals on designer furniture can turn an ordinary shopping trip into something truly special.
