Floor 13

If you're an avid MCM treasure hunter like me, you go to new cities looking for the non-typical antique shop that caters to our obsession with the 60's and 70's gems. In New Orleans, make the jaunt to Mid-City and find Floor 13 on Hennessey. Great items and a superb staff. I was greeted by the stunning and energetic Riley, the petite blond girl with the ear-to-ear smile, who politely wandered with me down my rambling path of mid-century factoids and questions. I'll go back many times while I'm living down here for work. I think you'll find it a unique and rewarding experience. If nothing else, you'll get to meet Riley if you're lucky!

I got a response from one of the business owners, they said they would be happy to work with me on price, that they price things accordingly, yadda yadda.Let's elaborate in my first review: this place isn't climate controlled. It's hot and humid af in there in the summer and cold in the winter (when we have winter temps). How can we trust to buy something from this type of environment at the ASTRONOMICAL prices they have and trust it won't have mold or mildew or any rot because of the climate conditions? I mean seriously. I get that they price accordingly to the age and value of said pieces, sure. But this saint a show room. This is set up like a pretty thrift / consignment store. This isn't a mid century modern show room where you expect to pay top dollar. If y'all want to charge these prices then you should do better at preserving them and refunding them. Also the short one of the duo is EXTREMELY rude and bullying. I have witnessed her bully customers and employees at a couple estate sales to purchase pieces to mark WAY up at this store. Not a good business model and not a good human. Do with this what you will but my advise is to not shop here. Also, Hollis, your response came off as condescending.

We wandered around a few times and found some great things. Some of the prices were insanely over priced so you have to check the price as you are making a buying decision. Some of the prices were quite reasonable.

Just when I thought I'd hit all the funky, unique, eclectic home furnishing stores in NOLA, Floor 13 hit my radar. Such a fun shopping experience. Loaded with everything from one-of-a-kind pieces, to hundreds of the same thing (from the Ritz-Carlton, perhaps), some of which is waiting for a paint job to make it one-of-a-kind. Lamps, artwork, rugs, desks, chairs, couches, tables, beds, nightstands, knickknacks, pillows, taxidermy pieces & more. Reasonably priced. Clean and well organized. Super friendly service.Planned to stop by for a few minutes to look for something specific. Left hours later with a few other things.

Of course, the location hasn't been on Canal in a while and they are rebranding themselves as Floor 13. I've been in this shop at its various locations and it definitely can have some interesting stock.Mostly they get furniture when big businesses are refreshing. So the quality can be great to not so good. Earlier this year they got a ton of furniture from a local high end hotel and so they had a bajillion incidental chairs, beds and other furniture. They also get lamps and TVs.It's a great spot to get some decent items at a lower cost. If it's hot outside, this is a metal warehouse so it will be hot inside. But there is a section of select items that is cooler. Since it's been chilly the last few days, I imagine the reverse is true right now.

Buyer beware: If you plan on purchasing from them, take 360 degree photos of the item before you pay for it and the shipping. Just received my armoire with a huge scratch across the front that was not there before the delivery. The way the furniture was positioned hid a hotel sign that was stuck on with double-sided tape. To remove it will lift the stain on the wood. Called about it and spoke to Nicole (Nikki?) who was rude when I purchased it and even worse over the phone. She claims it was there when I bought it. Minor scratches from a used furniture store are okay, but a huge gash across the front- no. Now I'm stuck with a damaged item.

A MUST shopping experience in New Orleans! Unlike any other vintage furniture store I've ever been to - it's whimsical and surreal with a wide selection of inventory to fit any style. Great customer service - Alexis was fantastic. Floor 13 will always hold a special place in my heart!

This place is fun fun fun! Previously used furniture with SO much potential. I grew up in the Era of wooden furniture, no plastic or partical board. The "big brown furniture" or "grandma" furniture of yesteryear has an entirely new look today. Big, burly, etc may not be everyone's cup of tea, but with fresh vibrant colors you can create a wonderland.The customer service is top notch.

I love Floor 13! They have lots of great new & unique furniture, and the staff is wonderful!

Awesome deals and variety of quality preowned furniture! This place is so unique, they paint items to your liking and the staff is very helpful! Lots of items from hotels-solid pieces, and art too-you can furnish a whole bedroom for under $300-easy! Great for college students! But also great for interior decorators as they have a myriad of designer pieces - lamps and art from the top hotels like the Ritz! And what a find for the DIYers! From chalk painting to lampshade making- you have lots at your fingertips!
