It depends what you want. For good furniture the place to go is Mosciano St Angelo which is several junctions north of Pescara on the A14. It's full of furniture stores. If you want something closer to Pescara then there is Mercatone Uno at Pineto, I hate (most of) the furniture there, sub MFI quality and they seem to exist by selling to people who buy on credit. OTOH their bed bases and mattresses are good value and we also bought chandeliers and some heavy bevel-edge mirrors from them at reasonable prices.

As someone has said, there's always Ikea in Rome, they're only 90 minutes or so away and it's a great drive.
