As consumers begin to furnish their homes and create a welcoming space for family and friends, the search for the perfect dining table can be a pivotal part of the process. Yet, this consumer dream is often accompanied by its own set of challenges — where and when they should get it and how they will afford it. Acima Leasing wants to help you close the gap with those decisions. In this article, we'll take a look at a few common scenarios that could impact your consumers' shopping decisions for a dining table. We’ll also delve into a few FAQs to show you how our lease-to-own solution integrates with your furniture business.  

Understanding the Lease-to-Own Furniture Consumer 

Furniture is a significant purchase for many individuals, often requiring careful consideration and exploration of various options. Consumers, driven by preference or necessity, seek alternatives to financing for getting larger items. Most U.S. consumers fall within the non-prime category (1) and prefer to shop without using credit*. For these shoppers, lease-to-own presents an appealing alternative that retailers can offer as a solution.  

Why Consumers Choose Lease-to-Own for Dining Table Furniture  

Many consumers live with competing priorities vying for their attention and resources. While a dining table is undoubtedly a valuable addition to any home, some consumers may prioritize other aspects of their lives over shopping for large furniture. Whether it's saving for a dream vacation, investing in further education, or pursuing a passion project, allocating one’s paycheck toward these endeavors may take precedence. A lease-to-own solution fits seamlessly into such lifestyle choices by offering a flexible solution that doesn’t force a consumer to compromise on their other priorities.
