Gustafson's Furniture was established in 1928 by Martin Gustafson in a small shop on 7th Street in Rockford, IL. At the time, they also sold vacuums, small appliances, Maytag Washers and Dryers and furniture door to door. In 1959, the business moved to a larger 9,000 square feet store on 7th Street Still selling Appliances, Furniture and Gifts. In 1999, having outgrown the location, we moved to North Town Shopping Center and took over the Bergners department store location. With 90,000 square feet to fill with Furniture, Mattresses, Linens, Area Rugs, and Accessories - Gustafson's Furniture and Mattress set out to make their mark in the furniture industry in Rockford.
