At Williams-Sonoma, the commitment to premium-quality, artisanal craftsmanship and cutting-edge innovation is evident in their wide variety of cookware, bakeware, kitchen tools, tableware, specialty foods and more. Since opening the first store in Sonoma, California in 1956, Williams-Sonoma has helped shape the way people cook, entertain and live. The store is always well-stocked and clean, with helpful and knowledgeable staff who are not pushy but ready to assist customers. During the holidays, one associate was praised for her kindness, honesty and welcoming manner, even making a customer an espresso when they were low on energy. Customers have enjoyed the store's tech classes, like learning to make pizza in a specialized oven. The Williams-Sonoma Home collection also brings classic design and timeless luxury to the comforts of the home with an exclusive assortment of furnishings, lighting and decorative accessories. The mission of inspiring people everywhere, every day, remains the same as it was over 60 years ago.
