About Us
Ronne Kurlancheek represents over 100 years of the Kurlancheek tradition: “fine furniture at a fair price” begun in 1898 by her grandfather, Jacob Kurlancheek. At that time, the store was located on Main Street in Duryea. The tradition was carried on by Jacob’s son, Ben and his wife, Priscilla, and the torch was passed on to Ronne and her brother, Paul. Over the years, stores were added in Wilkes-Barre, Bloomsburg, Dallas and Chinchilla. But in 1998, just shy of Kurlancheek Furniture’s 100 year anniversary, Ronne and Paul decided to close the business because it had become too big.
Both went back to school to pursue different interests. However, Ronne just couldn’t shake the family business. As a child, the Duryea store was her playground. For 25 years, it was her workplace. It’s what she knows best, it’s what she does best, and it’s in her blood.
After four years of going to school and working for other people, Ronne was given the opportunity to manage the Furniture Warehouse on Wyoming Avenue in Exeter. In 2005 the owner, Lou Domiano asked her if she wanted to buy the business. She didn’t have to think twice. As a result, Kurlancheek Home Furnishings is continuing the family tradition of good taste, great prices, servicing generations of loyal customers, many of whom remember shopping at the Duryea store with their parents and grandparents.

We apologize that your experience with us this time was not exceptional. Our communication was not as frequent as it should have been with updates to you. Please know that behind the scenes we were doing everything in our power to right the situation at hand.
To clarify the details, you received bookshelves at a floor model discount, upon delivery it was determined that pieces were missing—we acknowledge we should have known these were missing from our warehouse stock— we ordered the replacement parts from the vendor, as it turned out they not only sent us the incorrect parts but the model was discontinued. We offered you a couple of options – return the items, exchange the items, have our finisher manufacture the missing parts in-house, and a discount for the inconvenience. We then moved forward with our finisher manufacturing the parts. And again another setback due to the bespoke nature of the piece— they did not fit. We offered to have the finisher come to your home and personally fit to place— to which you declined. We again offered the return of the goods for a refund or exchange, to which you declined as it completed the look of the room, which was designed by one of our interior designers. Meanwhile our vendor rep was hunting down any remaining parts for this model from his various sources. As of your post, we received the located vendor parts and called you with this information and asked if you would like us to send or pick up the parts and the credit for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, with all of these steps timely turn-around was difficult and we absolutely could have done better in our communications to you, again we apologize. We hope that this situation is resolved as soon as possible and that your family enjoys many happy memories in your new space.
