“excellent store, great staff, good selection.
If you're looking for cheap, poor quality tools, this is not the place. If you believe in paying what it costs to have handmade tools made by true craftspeople, then you're lucky to live in an area that has Hida Tools.”
“Wonderful store with a huge selection of environmentally friendly products. Staff are very friendly and happy to give product recommendations! Their refill prices are the best in the area and you also get a discount after collecting 10 stamps. Highly recommend checking the store out!”
“We were recommended this fume hood by one of the workers, and we gave this model a shot-- extremely easy to clean, and efficient. Couldn't have asked for any better”
“This is by far the best plumbing supply place in the Bay Area. There has never been a time when I present them with a problem that they do not solve. No nonsense, there and friendly.”
“We did a kitchen remodel several years ago and our contractor recommended KitchenSync as the place to get our cabinets. They worked with us to get the best choice to fit our budget and layout. (We got Mid-Continent cherry cabinets that we're really happy with.) Fast forward to 2022 and a hinge on one cabinet door had come loose, causing the door to sag slightly I called the shop and asked if we needed a special tool because Phillips and slot screwdrivers were not working very well. Jeffrey looked into it and confirmed that we needed a Pozidrive #2 bit (available at Ace Hardware for $2). Sure enough, problem solved. The point being, they are great to work with and will stand by their products and customers years after the sale. Can't ask for more.”
“One of a kind. Ships faster than Amazon, better-than-best customer service. They emailed me over the weekend (when the store was closed) after I let them know a discount code couldn’t be applied, and fixed the problem immediately. So glad I found them!”
“We were referred by a family friend but some things we needed that same day were not available. Iliana helped us out with our kitchen countertops, made it way less stressful.”
“Exceptional Japanese antiques and amazing customer service. Jay is so kind! I can't wait to shop again soon. Super happy with everything I purchased - all items were even more beautiful in person! Highly recommended!!”
“They have a great collection of tiles and stone at a variety of price points. The sales associates are friendly and helpful. We purchased all the tile for two bathroom remodels from here and it was a great experience”

“I’ve been a customer for 26 years, going back to when they were in the city. Great service, and always willing to help, even with small orders- more than can be said for most restaurant supply outfits. Great prices, great tools, great, honest service.”
“I've been there like three times and each time the guys have always been great helping out or having answers. They're all knowledgeable. Great people. If they can do it for you they will”
“I came here looking for a cheese grater with a hand crank because I had difficulty finding one at some of the larger kitchen supply/cooking stores in SF. I found exactly what I needed!”

“There is a lot to see in the store. Some sections appear unorganized and cluttered but that could be due to customers picking up items and distributing them elsewhere! Definitely leave enough time to look around and make selections.”

“This is one of my favorite stores in Chinatown, it's a lot like the Ben Franklin shops of my childhood. They have great toys, crafts, hardware, housewares, accessories, and pajamas and shoes, and snacks! They really do have everything. We get our house slippers here. You can't beat their prices and the owners are pleasant.”
“Berkeley Design Center remodeled our master bathroom. They not only did a fantastic job, but they were extremely considerate—being there when we expected them, and keeping their workspace clean. It was a challenging job, since our space is relatively small, but their design was beautiful and the execution of the design was masterful. Also, with their guidance we were able to get the best state of the art fixtures and beautiful accessories. We are so happy with them we plan to use them for our future remodeling projects. I highly recommend them.”

“I have shopped her for over 15years and it is always my first stop when I am looking for a new plumbing fixture or need to troubleshoot something.
Recently, I called asking for help locating a kitchen faucet spray replacement (for a fixture I did not get from Moran). They not only helped me, they located the part number and told me it had a lifetime warranty through the company. I emailed the company and they sent me the replacement! This was so above and beyond and speaks to the high level of care, knowledge and customer service they provide.”
“I spent the past few months visiting different stores while shopping for kitchen cabinets, and I eventually found myself at Sincere Decor. At first, I hesitated and wasn’t sure if I had come to the right place. However, after comparing prices with other stores I had visited, I found their pricing to be very reasonable.
During my visit, I had the pleasure of working with David Lin, who was incredibly helpful in designing my kitchen. David was courteous, professional, and friendly throughout the entire process. He patiently walked me through all the cabinet design options, answered every question I had, and took the time to ensure I fully understood each step. There was absolutely no pressure, which I truly appreciated.
His knowledge, patience, and attention to detail made what could have been a stressful decision much easier, and even enjoyable. David’s professionalism and genuine willingness to help truly reflect the high standard of customer service that Sincere Decor provides.
Because of his assistance, I felt confident and comfortable with my choices. I would like to congratulate Sincere Decor for having such a wonderful staff member.
Respectfully,
Sean D”
“I was changing out my EV plug for a Hubbel brand NEMA 14.50 and my old faceplate didn't fit. Home Depot was useless, an employee recommended Bayshore.
These guys are fantastic! I am not an electrician, just a very handy individual. Bayshore knew exactly what my issue was and sold me just what I needed. I will definitely shop here again.”
“Thuy was extremely kind and helpful with helping us to find a stainless steel set that would fit both our needs and our price point. She was patient with our questions and assisted us with all inquiries! Wonderful shopping experience!”
“We had to fully gut and DIY our kitchen reno, and since it was unexpected, we had a tight budget to make it happen.
Tl;Dr Granite Expo has a great price point for relatively good quality solid wood cabinets compared to other places that costs more or uses MDF.
My SIL recommended me Granite Expo for their price point and quality. They use Milzen brand cabinets and the cabinet builder is just 2 minutes away from their Oakland store. My review is on the kitchen cabinets and purchasing process.
I shopped around with other local SF, Oakland, and Hayward cabinet shops and had a rendering made from their Emeryville location before deciding to move forward with buying from Granite Expo. I was able to speak to a rep within 10 minutes with my rendering to place my order, we did 15 cabinets in M21 Hollis White cabinets (shaker style) and it was ready to pick up within the same week. On pick up day, we brought our truck and made 2 runs. They helped load in which was so helpful!
Good quality and perfect for DIYer's or contractors.”
“Love this Ikea! Especially I love the restaurant. The menu changes overtime which is great & the prices are reasonable for families with young kids. My son doesn’t like fish but he loves IKEA’s lemon garlic cod, which tastes very delicious. BTW, they only offer this garlic cod on the weekends. Recommended coming here for quick dinner, nice views with big windows, & super clean.”
“Yes, the owner is not for everyone. She does not believe that the customer is always right. She really knows her stuff; she does know more than you. If you are ok with that, she is going to get you exactly what you need (even if you thought you needed something else). She is a treasure!”
“Look no further. Seriously. Just go with Vinny at East Bay Cabinets and be glad you did. He was so helpful in deciding what would work best for us and our needs. The quality is second to none and I admire his craftsmanship! Thanks Vinny!!”
