History
Established in 1934 Schoharie County's original and oldest home furnishings retailer had its beginning doing business under the name of A.B. Borst in 1882. A.J. Brown acquired the company in the early 1920's and it became Myer's Furniture Store in 1931. The company was purchased by Leo J. Scholet in 1934 and has been known as Scholet Furniture since that time. In February 1976, the Hotel Augustan in Cobleskill was purchased. Scholet Furniture was responsible for saving this historic landmark and over the next two years converted the building into what is today our flagship location. The grand opening of the Cobleskill store was held on October 1, 1978. In 1984, a new store, Slumber Island Sleep Shop, was opened in Oneonta, New York. Slumber Island was originally opened as a bedding and waterbed store. The store changed locations to 254 Main Street, and became Scholet Furniture's second full-line home furnishings store. The Oneonta location moved in January 1996 to the Oneonta Plaza
