“I had my eye on some furniture and was hoping to find a better price and that is how I came across B&M Furniture, and what a special experience it turned out to be. I had the pleasure of meeting Ed, who is truly one of the most incredible people I have ever met. If every business operated with the care, integrity, and passion that Ed brings, the world would honestly be a better place. Since finding him a few months ago, I have already placed two orders with Ed and fully plan to send everyone I know who is looking for furniture his way. Thank you, Ed, for setting the gold standard for how to treat customers!”

“Walking in here felt like I was transported into an old world market in India or Egypt. Or maybe that was just me. This place has all kinds of unique furnishings for your home. And if you ever want a Tiffany style stain glass lamp, this is the place to go. They were EVERYWHERE. On almost every piece of furniture. And believe me, there was a lot of furniture. Not only did they have stained glass lamps, but stained glass decorative pieces that you could hang in your window. There were quite a few of those, too. The furniture is all rich, dark stained wood pieces. At first blush, they all looked very well made, but I didn't investigate them very thoroughly. I was just walking through. The back quarter of the warehouse-type store was all Persian-type rugs. All sizes and shapes and lots of them. If ever you were looking for a rug, this might be a good place to look for selection. The store is right off Hwy 280 next to the ApplianceSmart. Take the Como Ave exit to get to it. When I was there just last week, they had a 40% off sale everything in the store. From what I hear, this is a common occurrence. If you're looking for a Tiffany lamp, or an unusual piece of furniture, come here and browse a little. You should find something you like.”

“I’m a longtime lover of Mid-Century Modern design, and every time I return to the Twin Cities from Italy to visit family and friends, I make a point to stop at MidModMen and Friends. The quality of their pieces is consistently excellent, and the prices are more than fair. Neal and Jon are genuinely kind, welcoming, and generous with their knowledge — never pushy, always helpful. If you appreciate Mid-Mod style, this shop is a must. And even if it’s not exactly your aesthetic, it’s absolutely worth stepping inside just to experience it.”

“Pete is always helpful and friendly. We bought a buddha statue today. This place ain't cheap but definitely legitimate when it comes to the retro, vintage, mid century modern type style.”

“Found the perfect gift for my girlfriend’s birthday, I am a queer person and I was so excited to find the perfect gift I told the person at the register it was for my girlfriend, I don’t often do this because I get weird looks but she didn’t blink an eye and was equally as excited for me, amazing customer service. will come back to get more stuffed bunnies for my girl!”

“I bought four plates and three salad bowls, which were impeccably packaged for me as I was taking them on a plane. Thank you for allowing me to bring everything back intact! The staff were kind and helpful. Thank you.”

“GoodThings is one of my favorite gift shops! Jeffrey and the team are always friendly, helpful, and great at pointing you toward things you didn’t know you needed. The store has a fun, unique selection—from kids’ gifts and clothing to cooking items, funny socks, Minnesota apparel, and Saint Paul gear. There’s always something new, and it’s hard to leave with just one item (I rarely do!). A fantastic go-to spot for gifts—and a little self-gifting too. Highly recommend”

“I brought 4 watches in for replacement batteries. Everyone was very friendly, the selection was really cool and prices were fair. I will definitely be back again and we love our new wall clock!”

“Was running late....How did I get in and out of the store in less than 5 minutes? Customer service! I needed a sympathy gift, and the cashier was pleasant and walked me over to a wall with cardinal sun catcher. The price was right, grabbed a small gift bag, and headed to the counter. I'm not sure I've ever shopped that fast...and without feeling stressed in store with so many different trinkets, items, gifts, etc, and having no clue what was available or what to get. Thank you Patina! ?”
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.
