What are some good furniture stores in Toronto? My taste leans towards modern furniture (but not too modern), I really like Room & Board Furniture, as well as Design Within Reach (although it is a little pricey for me).
I've been in most of the stores in the Queen West area, but I'm looking for specific stores I should check or even some other streets or neighborhoods that have a lot of stores.

What meerkatty said, unless you want vintage, in which case I say Queen East between Broadview and Jones:
Machine Age Modern
Phil'Z
Hardware Interiors (custom stuff)
EyeSpy
Zig Zag
Ethel
Pazo
Festoon
Up To You (no furniture but neat accessories)
I also highly recommend this Toronto-based eBay seller.

Here are a few more suggestions if you're still checking:
If you like the stuff found at UpCountry a visit to Direct Interiors in Brampton might be called for. You'll have to know what you want though as you'll be shopping mostly from catalogues on-site. Elite Designs manufactures most of the furnishings at UpCountry so I'd advise you to browse there in advance and then buy at Direct Interiors. My friends bought the Manhattan dining table and matching chairs at a considerable discount - you can haggle there too, if you're so inclined.
Lifestyle on Spadina just south of King, across the street from the Winners store is chockful of good finds and around the corner is R- Shop.
The Danforth is also good for a few furniture shops - I think on the south side, beginning a few blocks east of Broadview. (sorry I can't be more specific than that...I was wandering about last month when I found them.)
