"ZZ Driggs isn’t your typical furniture store."

“At ZZ, we talk about the Four Fs of Sustainability: first it was fuel, then food, then fashion, and we really think furniture is next.”

“The sharing economy is such a beautiful thing, because it's predicated on goods that last.”

“There is hope on the horizon for the future of sustainable furniture manufacturing, according to Phillip Raub and Whitney Frances Falk, the leaders of two sustainable-first luxury home brands.”

“Style is everything
at ZZ Driggs."

"Options [for antique hunting] include EBay, Etsy and ZZ Driggs, which both sells and rents vintage furnishings."

"The company has offset 100% of its carbon emissions, produced from all company operations from shipping to transportation."

“ZZ’s offerings are impeccably curated & impossibly chic.”

“Perfect if you don't have time to source your own (and might want to try something new in 12 months).”

“Gaining B Corp Certification was a goal of [ZZ Driggs Founder & CEO] Falk’s since she founded the company in 2014.”

“Best for Commitment Phobes: Decorating can be difficult. If you want to take your time finding just the right thing or if you will be in an apartment for a year or less, consider renting from ZZ Driggs.”

“Some vintage and antique furniture companies, like ZZ Driggs, are even B-Corp certified.”

“ZZ received B Corp Certification after two years of work. They transitioned from an LLC to a Public Benefit Corp, created a carbon auditing system, and avoided taking investment from VCs where revenue was the chief concern.”

“Just like phones, furniture is designed for planned obsolescence... ZZ Driggs is on a mission to change that.”

“A startup that began in the rental sector for commercial and hospitality properties but is now expanding to residential as well"

“Each member of the ZZ Driggs team had a different research task, from determining the carbon footprint of the warehouse to investigating healthcare benefits”

“With subscription furniture growing in popularity, the services are becoming niche. ZZ, for example, offers higher-end furniture and even antiques.”

“Sometimes, a piece of furniture comes along and changes everything around us.”

"ZZ Driggs is a company that allows you to rent, buy, or try before you buy a timeless design."

“ZZ’s motto? ‘Surround yourself with meaningful design.’ This applies, first and foremost, to their curated collection — a mix of vintage and artisanal pieces, from a 1750s chaise lounge to a 21st century puffy pink chair.”

“I’ve started steering them to ZZ Driggs, which allows you to rent or buy vintage and bespoke furniture, including hard-to-move pieces like sofas and dining tables. Perfect for chic nomads everywhere.”

“ZZ Driggs, a company that brings the subscription model to high-end furniture, outlines the potential of an economy in which all furniture is built to last — and to be shared.”

“ZZ Driggs’s impeccably curated collection stands out, and all pieces are available to rent or purchase outright if you live in the New York metro area (purchasing and shipping are available nationwide, as well).”

“Though rental furniture is often marketed as a convenience for restless young urbanites, the concept is rooted in circularity.”

“The upscale label features a curated collection of contemporary furniture available for rent or purchase, delivered straight to their doors.”

“Some items on ZZ's checklist? Workers must be paid fair wages, and their pieces must have an average useful life of 50 years and prioritize recycled or biodegradable materials.”

“Founded in 2014 to combat the ‘wasteful and desecrating’ cycle that is ‘fast furniture,’ the 100 percent carbon-neutral operation urges its customers to shop vintage or rent used items.”

“Fluffy towels, luxurious candles, objets d’art from local artisans rather than e-commerce giants. Essentially: The trend is to embrace what lasts, what’s well made, and what makes you smile.”

“For those who want to reconfigure their WFH spaces or simply shake things up, try renting furniture from ZZ Driggs, which sources antiques and independent artisans for one-of-a-kind decor without long-term commitment.”

“One company that’s catching the eye of design fiends in particular? ZZ Driggs.”

“ZZ Driggs, for its part, stipulates that every piece on its website will last for at least 50 years, and is committed to supporting emerging independent designers.”

“No fast-furniture pieces here, only a carefully curated mix of contemporary items from local furniture makers and creatives, plus a smattering of vintage pieces that would give any place a bit of soul.”

“Pieces range from three weeks to 300 years old, including textiles from the Sinatra family or the personal furniture collection of Steve Jobs’ celebrated graphic designer, Paul Rand.”

“Of the contemporary design studios that ZZ partners with, 100% pay all staff a living wage, 80% create furniture with recyclable materials and 60% from biodegradable materials.”

“Founded in 2014, [ZZ] started as a B2B service for design-friendly businesses and institutions, renting to the likes of Lincoln Center and the New Museum (Falk’s first customer was Virgin Hyperloop One, an Elon Musk–inspired transportation venture).”

“Previously trade-only, ZZ Driggs has a new consumer-facing online site for renting high-end ecologically minded furniture and design objects, featuring work from SU favorites including Michael Felix and Workaday Handmade.”

“When delivered, an employee will joyfully share facts and figures about the couch, chair, or rug you’ve chosen — all while playing some great music from a retro boombox. (In my case, it was an 19th century armoire from the Philippines and some Michael Jackson.)”

“Waiting for furniture with long lead times wasn’t an option. Instead, I turned to ZZ Driggs, a rental decor company unlike most others.”

“There’s a thriving market for used and vintage furniture... and more recently there’s been a boom in furniture rental brands [like] ZZ Driggs.”
