This place was great, filled with so many things you didn't know you needed. Very reminiscent of the Ax-Man stores in Minneapolis. My only reason for not going five star is that much of the store is filled with the kitschy, cheap novelty, shelf filler kind of items.

It's still the same as I remember it from my childhood. I brought my kids today and will come back for some more fun soon. The selection of stem toys is awesome. They also have a ton of other fun stuff for the aspiring scientists and tinkerers in all of us.

A good place to pick up a present for a young child's party. Not too expensive. I have some interesting stuff to Pat's around and look at. keep the science alive.

Omg the smell is horrible! It literally smells of urine. BUT if you can get past the bad smells n uncleanliness, it’s actually not a bad place. The kids loved it n each found something. There’s a lot to see and worth a stop if you can get over the smells. I wouldn’t go out of my way for it but if ur near by then maybe.

Ok, but masks and shields by the registers? Whatever makes you feel safe I guess

Fun variety store of all sorts of fun strange stuff. Get your kid into science and building stuff! Or get finger hands for your finger hands. Maybe a couples toilet?

Great Store. Love Going There. The stuff is so incredibly interesting. The kind of stuff that is not sold anywhere else. Truly Unique. A special store for sure. I Love going there for gifts. ? People Love the gifts they get from there because they've never even seen them before. Not on the internet, not anywhere. It's fantastic. I highly recommend stopping by. Last but not least, the prices are unbeatable. I don't know how they do it but I'm glad they do. Bless You American Science & Surplus.

Still a fun place to wander in. Only downside were the long lines to check out. Took a chance and got the mystery box but that was a definite waste. Toys only - was kind of hoping for some random odds and ends for around the house but I won't hold that against them. They have a lot of practical things mixed in with some crazy stuff. Fun way to spend some time when you're bored.

I hadn't been here since I was a kid.... and it's still amazing! My 8yo loved it. Tons of fun projects and gadgets.

WhoEVER was working last night should not have a job. I get it, equal opportunity employer... workers had 0 sense of urgency in all business operations. Was in line for 30 minutes before I was helped. Then when It was my turn the trog that made slick comments about my returns hit the help button to ring up other customers faster after having a whole line sit there and build up.Oh yeah and all the other employees walking around literally not doing anything could have definitely jumped in and acted like they work there. I'm a supervisor and found this place very unprofessional.

I've been going to A*** Milwaukee as long as I can remember, some 35+ years. My uncle used to take me here when I was a child, and I can't even fathom the number of hours I've spent scouring its shelves for parts and ideas alike. The variety and breadth of stuff is unmatched and I struggle to leave every single time. One could spend a month here and still leave having not seen everything. I now get to share this joy with my children, and can't wait for our next trip even though we just left literally 2 hours ago.

WOW, what you can't buy here you do not really need in your life. It is worth the trip just to walk around the store. It was a pleasure to be back again after soo many years. Always a fun time and the have 99% of anything and everything! We highly recommend a visit ASAP!
