Jason gave us so much of his attention and time and really helped walk us through all of our options for our media console. We didn't end up purchasing that day, but in the future - we'll be sure to reach out to him directly. It was such a better experience than shopping online!

Big thank you to Laura, who was so knowledgeable and helpful while we were deciding on a couch. She answered all our questions on delivery, walked us through our options, and ensured the purchase was right for our lifestyle.

Along popular 14th Street NW is a very fancy two-floor West Elm with all their home goods in all their expensive glory. What is not pricey is slipping in to use their restrooms for free. Two unisex restrooms are on the second floor. If you go just for the restrooms, be respectful of the space and staff.
