Out of curiosity I checked the reviews for this place and decided I was not imagining things. My mother and I went in with my two well-behaved children. We have a business and I whole-heartedly respect the work that goes into staging product. Therefore, my kiddos are always reminded and are not running, grabbing or yelling in stores. The woman behind the counter glared at us and seemed put out that we had even entered. The kids were great and we had intended on buying quite a bit of things for a dinner party coming up. She then said some very rude comments to my children when they smelled some candles. I was just floored; we took off immediately. I ignore a lot of nastiness, because, well, it doesn't seem to be worth confronting, but DO not mess with my kids. I love to support Gig Harbor businesses and do every chance I get. I will buy from a GH business, but not from Bella... I don't patron rude shop owners.

From the beautiful dinnerware and serve ware to incredible imported linens plus a full assortment of kitchen implements, Bella is a jewel. Owner Terese is so accommodating and knowledgeable. Just to browse the artful displays is a pleasure. Bella is a real compliment to our small intimate shops in Gig Harbor, plus a resource for our residents for items we couldn't easily find without venturing to Seattle or Bellevue. What a gem.

I am very disappointed in the mechanics and customer service. I took my Karcher pressure washer to…read morethem because we were having an issue with the "pressure." I should have been wary initially when they called my husband on 6/19/17 to say they were unable to start it. He showed up, asked to give it a try and after pulling the choke, it started up on the first pull. As a mechanic, how to do forget to pull the choke? Okay, be that as it may, we figured they still knew more than we did on how to fix the pressure issue so left it there to be repaired. We get a call a little while later saying it's fixed, $71.94 later and for 45 minutes of their time, I was told when I picked it up that the fitting was on backwards, but otherwise it was "a good little machine" by the mechanic. We took it home to test it. First pull of the trigger, pressure was fine and it remained fine so long as you didn't take your hand off of the trigger, but if you took your hand off the trigger, no pressure. I was annoyed that I was charged for 45 minutes of time to turn a fitting around that likely took 5 minutes or less and the exact same problem we took it in for remained. I waited a week and a half to decide what I was going to do about it, then called when I took a second look at their invoice which stated "30 DAY WARRANTY PARTS AND LABOR WORK DONE." I assumed that this would be easy, make a call, and they would say, "Bring it back, we'll take a look." But, no... I was told by the mechanic that took my call that it worked fine when they had it. I asked them how they tested it and was told that they they used their own gun and ran it for a couple of minutes without issue. The mechanic then proceeded to tell me it was probably MY gun or MY water pressure because it worked fine for him. I told him, same problem at two different homes with two different water systems. He then proceeded to blame it on my gun. I'm fuming by now, because if you had my pressure washer for less than 10 minutes for a pressure issue, but never tested MY gun and instead used your own AND charged me for 45 minutes, WHY DID YOU NOT TEST MY GUN? The mechanic then advised that 45 minutes was their minimum billing. I wasn't getting anywhere with the mechanic so ended the call and went on my own quest to find the source of my pressure washer pressure problem and found it here: https://youtu.be/WfUcXlBZRxk. My pressure washer is now fixed BY ME and cost me about 10 cents or less in white lithium grease and about 15 minutes of my time, including fully testing it. If I left it up to the mechanic's advice it'd be out another $30 for a new gun. Small Engine Clinic, you need mechanics that know what they're doing and will also take responsibility for failing to properly make the requested repair, which I paid for. Now the real test is what will you do to make this right?

I have been taking my Toro mower here to be serviced for years and would never take it anywhere…read moreelse. I believe they are an authorized Toro shop, and in every instance when I have dealt with them, they do a great job - very thorough. They also provide me with details of what they have done, explain how I can help myself keep things running well, and the turnaround time is very reasonable. I will say that sometimes the price for service seems a bit steep, but it has been many years since I have checked what other shops charge, so maybe they are competitive in that regard. I'm too happy with the quality of service to worry very much about that!

He spent 15-20 minutes on the phone with me answering all questions and being honest about what we can expect with brands, delivery, installation and ballpark pricing for different products (and they don't hike up pricing due to your zip code). Customer service is as important as the cabinets we choose. They have a great selection of cabinets but also have - by far - the best service we've experienced, and we're only in the early stages. I'm so glad companies like Creekside are around!

I am beyond disappointed with Purdy Topsoil & Gravel; They…read morecame highly recommended and so I placed a call and explained I needed good soil for my raised beds vegetable gardens, what do you have/recommend? I was told that with tax, a yard of their very good garden soil would be approximately $29. Ok, I will be in next week. After arriving and talking with staff, the clerk said to me that this is for flower beds, correct? No, it is for food for my family fir vegetables. She then told me that the soil I was going to purchase would not support food growth... I was then told: "We have our compost blend and we also mix our compost with steer manure compost and fish compost and it is twice the price." I then decided to buy two yards. The next morning I was surprised to find that my son had filled my garden beds for me, but there is all kinds if 'stuff' in the dirt! I easily gathered a 1/2 baggie of pieces of plastic in clear, white, blue, black, red, another blue,... along with pieces of painted metal i. Blue, red, black, green, dark blue, bright blue, white, etc... -along with treated 'Beauty Bark'... I took the baggie half filled with the debris and my receipt... The Manager was not in and would call- and THEY WOULD NOT GIVE ME BACK MY RECEIPT! They also kept the baggie, which I wanted them to see as unfortunately I can easily gather more. I was then informed by the two women working behind the counter that they get their compost from the Pierce County Dump! Excuse Me?! When an employee informs me that WE make OUR with premium compost, OUR steer manure compost, and OUR fish compost; I don not get the impression that you receive it from the Pierce County Landfill!!?? I specifically asked and was given an answer of: WE make OUR with OUR WE MAKE... Had I been properly informed of the compost origins, I would absolutely NOT have purchased ANY product originating from ANY Landfill project. Today marks two weeks since I drove there again, and asked to speak to the Manager. I called yet again today, Monday June 10, 2024 and wouldn't ya know, the manager just stepped out and will call me back. At this point, I can only recommend NEVER DOING BUSINESS WITH PURDY TOPSOIL GRAVEL! Sincerely, Kimberly Kelly Lehman

I called Sunnycrest with a last-minute request and not only were they able to fulfill it and deliver in the snow, Michelle also called because she was concerned about leaving the flowers on the porch in this weather (20°). She helped me brainstorm a plan to get these flowers delivered in the best shape possible. I'm so grateful for the amazing service. I'm positive other delivery companies would have delivered with the mindset that their job is done once it was on the porch.. those flowers probably would have looked rough!

His version: He said he told me the repair was going to be $500-600 and I that gave the ok to throw the fan away. Never happened! He's either confusing me with someone else or being dishonest. My version: In our last conversation he told me he was still trying to track down the parts and I told him I would check back as it got closer to fall. So frustrating! I wish I had the fan back so I could try and find a replacement or take it to someone else.
