Furnished for Fifty

When you’re in the market for a home refresh, Mays-Munroe can outfit your home from kitchen to bedroom and every room in between as Tallahassee’s only family and locally owned appliance and sleep center.

The Mays family established the store in 1936, with the Munroe family purchasing it in 1974 and adding their name to the brand. In 2024, the Munroes mark 50 years of furnishing their neighbors’ homes with the latest and greatest appliances.

“In this day and age, a lot of people are choosing to shop online rather than at mom-and-pop shops like ours, but once they come in and experience the superior level of service, they choose to come back for their next need,” said Mike Munroe. “It’s the customers who support what we do that keep us surviving and thriving.”

In a world often bogged down by analysis paralysis, especially when searching online for appliances and furnishings, the staff at Mays-Munroe guides you through the process with professionalism.

Each highly trained staff member asks questions to determine customer wants, needs, plans and price points to direct them toward products that align with those requirements.

The exceptional service you will receive from the staff keeps the process fluid from start to finish. Not only do they assist with product selection, but they also schedule deliveries and manage installations. “When the scarcest resource we have is time, we want to make the entire process easy and seamless for customers,” said Munroe.

SLEEP SPACE: Your bedroom should be a sanctuary, and Tempur-Pedic products ensure just that. As the leaders in sleep technology, their mattresses have cooling capabilities, adaptive technologies that adjust to each sleeper and can contain Bluetooth technology to serenade you into sweet dreams.

The visual person is in luck as the showroom provides a space to touch, see and envision any major appliance or mattress for their home. In particular, Munroe paid attention to detail in the mattress showroom, which is equipped with dimmed lighting, lavender oil diffusers and partitions to mimic a bedroom rather than a showroom with fluorescent lighting.

Where sleep is concerned, Munroe notes that many are moving away from traditional box springs and feather mattresses and embracing memory foam and adjustable bases. These technologies reduce pressure and provide better support for the body.

Technology is becoming commonly integrated into appliances, from app-controlled appliances that allow you to preheat the oven to appliances that alert you when your fridge needs to be repaired to downloadable recipes and ovens with cameras inside.

Mays-Munroe carries many brand names, such as LG, Bosch and GE, while providing access to smaller specialty brands, such as Viking, Thermador, Fisher & Paykel and Miele.

“The biggest compliment we hear is when customers say the process was easier than they thought,” said Munroe. “Our quality of customer service sets us far ahead of competitors.”
