“I wandered up to the rug department at Saybrook Home to take a quick look at their Orientals, and the rugs were so beautiful that I came home with one! The process was made so much easier with the help of Ryan, who spent a lot of time with me flipping through countless rugs. He was very good at explaining the styles and historical background and also had a great aesthetic which made the choosing easier. I highly recommend the store and Ryan himself, he’s a real credit to their business.”
“Cottage flair has always stood out to me because of the meaningful, handmade quality and style of the clothes and gifts. I always Find something nostalgic, heartfelt and just filled with magic. Here’s my favorite necklace from them.”
“I really don't like shopping for anything but this boutique store draws me in every time. They offer a very eclectic variety of items for the home and clothing items. I can't get out the door without purchasing something.”
“I am very happy to give a five star review so far in the process which is basically just from our visit. First I'll share that my husband HATES shopping, and really HATES pushy salespeople, but does have an opinion on what type of chair and couch he sits on, so I needed him to accompany me on this trip. We'd been to other furniture stores in the past where we were attacked by salespeople upon entering the store. This is such a turnoff to him. But here were greeted as we walked in the door and given an opportunity to walk around by ourselves with someone later asking if we needed any help. Donna was so helpful and friendly to deal with. We narrowed down the chairs right away and she helped us with the couches and fabrics. I had brought a pillow with me that had the fabric of the window treatments in the room that we were keeping so we needed to coordinate fabrics to go with it. She was great with that. She allowed us to take the fabrics home with us to see how they looked in the room. She wrote up a quote for us as well. Not pushy at all!! Upon my second visit we needed a slightly different shade for one fabric and then we ordered. Pretty seamless. The new location in Clinton is beautifully done. I recommend this business to anyone looking for service and selection. We hope the quality is as good as the service! Thanks Donna.”
“The employees at this store are fabulous. I've been watching a chair on Chairish for months, and it was finally reduced to a really excellent price. They held it for me until I could get there today. I guess I wasn't sure how big it is, but it's HUGE. It for sure didn't fit in the back of my SUV. so the employees managed to get fit it in with just a small portion protruding and bungee corded it very securely in my vehicle so I could make the seventy mile drive home with my new purchase. Thanks so much for the effort. I'm thrilled with my purchase.”
Two familiar names now share one storefront. Bed Bath & Beyond and The Container Store opened their first co-branded location in Fort Worth, Texas, on May 16, and the concept is spreading to nearly two dozen stores in what the company calls phase one.
Bob's Discount Furniture is growing while its competitors shrink. The Manchester, Connecticut-based retailer reported strong fourth-quarter results in its first earnings call since going public in February, with revenue climbing 8.2% to $648.8 million. Full-year net revenue jumped 16.8% to $2.4 billion, and net income rose to $121.7 million from $87.9 million the prior year.
