About Us

Founded by two brothers, Frank A. and Henry G. “Rock” Capperella in 1952 as a television and appliance retailer and service provider, Capperella’s first store was located on Bishop Street in downtown Bellefonte. In 1955, Capperella Brothers, as it was known, began selling home furnishings. In 1957 the brothers built a new building outside of town, between Bellefonte and Milesburg. The larger showroom allowed for new merchandise, including bedding and flooring. After an expansion during the 1970’s and another in the early 90’s, this location is now nearly 40,000 square feet. In 1997 Capperella’s opened our second location in Lewistown, PA. Following in the footsteps of Jonas and Jane Kauffman, owners of Kauffman’s Music and Furniture (an 80 year Lewistown tradition), Capperella’s moved into their former location in downtown Lewistown.  Now in the second generation, the brother and sister team of Dave Capperella and Carol Capperella continue the tradition and commitment to provide central Pennsylvania with the finest selection of home furnishings, bedding, flooring, and services at the best possible prices.

Capperella’s Pricing Philosophy

We guarantee that Capperella’s is the low price leader. Many of our manufacturers have minimum pricing policies. At Capperella’s, we sell all of that merchandise at the lowest price, everyday. We also shop the competition to guarantee that Capperella’s is the low price leader. If you find a lower price on identical, first quality merchandise at any other retailer in our State, Capperella’s will refund the difference for up to 30 days after your purchase, provided the price difference can be verified. Price-matched merchandise is not eligible for any Capperella’s finance offer and our price-matching policy does not cover clearance merchandise.
