I bought a sofa from them and its so comfortable, and solid for wear and tear (my cats). The staff is so friendly, and its a fun atmosphere. I love the website too - it's easy to navigate and a lot of product that the competition sells is on there for easy picking, but Equilibrium has the lowest price so far that I know of.
The Canadian sofa line is the best I've seen in that entire area, lots to chose from and a great experience.
Price is the best in the city, my friends buy all their modern knock off furniture from them as well at a steal of a deal.
Kind and helpful staff with great product and the best prices I am a loyal customer as are my friends - we go to them first .
I was a bit worried at first that they couldn't get the product I like, but in fact they can. I really like this store and glad I gave it a try.
I had to mention this story, it was that easy. A walk down the street and I saved big time.
I was looking at the Mika sofa by Stylus but went with a lower end company they sell. The sales staff are really helpful. I didn't know what I wanted but then they broke it down for me. In this case I wanted a 5yr fix. I walked away with a grey sofa for 499, side table for 119, and a occasional chair for 199. This place is great for all people with all budgets. Satisfied customer.
I don't mind waiting for my product, and I enjoy supporting this store rather than Elte, Urban barn, and the others.
They have the same product and they give us the lowest price as advertised everywhere on their site and windows.
Love this store.
I am now moving on to my den with her, so far she has completed my living room, bedroom, and dining. I will be posting pics on facebook. Great job and product.
Huge selection on floor? No
Tacky? I agree that some of the artwork is
Overall? Great staff, great product, and original items.
I have owned a Stylus before too, and it lasted me well over 10 years, I am changing it because I want a new style, and yes so far they have given me the lowest price.
In a sea of reclaimed, and salvaged furniture and decor items they have modern, contemporary, and elegance. Thanks for coming to our neighbourhood Equilibrium!
Later on I ended up buying 12 sofas for my lounge along with stools, chairs,and tables. Best service I have seen in a long time. Really happy to deal with them. I recieved my order on time and there was no problems . I can't tell you how many stores I went to before this one. I will be sticking with Equilibrium because really they are a joy to deal with and charged a lot less then the 'big' guys.
They have a diverse store, and I ended up buying 8 dining chairs from them.
They had the better price out of all the stores on Queen street, King street, and many others., but some stuff I did see on online stores at a better price.
Its true that a lot of the product on the website is not on the showroom floor. The showroom is small but warm and welcoming I would suggest stopping by if you enjoy down to earth shopping and honest sales staff , but if you enjoy stuck up sales staff and cold showrooms then I would greatly suggest you stick to their online website.
I trust Equilibrium and bought most of the items from them as they do seem to have the lowest price for all items including my gorgeous sofa from Stylus.
Sam referred me to Shelter for one piece as well, she was open and honest in stating that this one particular item was cheaper at Shelter and unfortunately couldn't beat their price. I really respected her intentions.
For free design advice and not having to deal with pretentious designers I really suggest Equilibrium for guidance. I sent Sam my requested ‘wish list’ as well as my layout with measurements and a few photos of existing furniture in the space and a paragraph indicating what I wanted in the space. I also included some photos of some furniture items I was head over heels for and she seemed to work them into my tight budget.
Great advice, nice store, friendly tone.
This is by far my favorite store in The Junction.
So inviting. The website they have features all the modern classics that everyone on Queen street and King st carry. The store features Canadian made sofas mostly and accent tables & decor.
No joke though they really do have the lowest prices.
Efficient
Honest
Down to earth
Price conscious
Great design advice
Experts at selecting the right pieces
Simply excellent at what they do!
My entire design team and I deal with Equilibrium. If they don't have the product we want they sure have a substitue which is fine with us and our clients especially with the money they save.
Its great to see how busy this store is now, and we will continue to support them.
Lots of products and its affordable
Cant shop here enough, great service, excellent prices. They have always been my 'go to' store.
They have grown so much in the last two years it astounds me. They have the recipe for success.
I'm a fan, can’t complain.
For a Toronto furniture store they have amazing sofas , and they support Canadian lines and it beats going to the very over priced big furniture giants who have no character nor knowledge for design or construction.
THANKS EQUILIBRIUM
They are extremely serious, professional, and to the point. I did order through them and bottom line they gave me superior service. No problems whatsoever, so I don’t mind that they are tough.
For many years as a designer I haven’t been able to find a decent retail furniture store that was fast, efficient, and had a large variety of order in products. Equilibrium is now my one stop shop for my clients and as an older woman in this business it makes my life so much easier.
