The Miami Furniture Scene

Miami has quickly grown to become an epicenter for furniture and furniture stores. In South Florida, but in particular Miami furniture stores are abundant and can be found in all sizes with varying product offerings. In general, furniture stores in Miami can be grouped into two distinct categories: Big Box chains and Boutique stores.

Big box chains – such as City Furniture, El Dorado and Rooms to Go – tend to focus their product offering towards the typical South Florida furniture shopper. They all offer a variety of styles – from Traditional and Tropical to Casual and Contemporary – and leverage their large showrooms, quick turnaround times and financing options as key selling points.


Boutique furniture stores meanwhile, are typically smaller furniture stores. But smaller does not necessarily mean worse, as some boutique furniture stores in Miami actually offer more products than their big box counterparts. The reason is that big box furniture stores are limited to offering what they can fit in their showrooms. While City Furniture and El Dorado have some showrooms approaching 100,000 square feet, nonetheless they are limited to selling what they can display.  Certain boutique furniture stores meanwhile – such as SoBe Furniture – effectively leverage the use of technology, catalogs, carefully chosen showroom furniture, and most importantly extremely knowledgeable furniture consultants, in order to present and sell over 10,000 furniture products.  Moreover, while certain stores in the Miami Design District also carry a similarly robust product offering, given the high cost of leasing in the Miami Design District, no other store can offer high quality modern and contemporary furniture in Miami for close to the price as SoBe Furniture!
