Every associate, in every dept., hovered and asked if we needed help. That's fine, but it clearly was a different approach. We were there to add to our dish stash but couldn't find them on the shelves. There was no attempt to see if they might be out of stock, or they aren't selling them anymore. So, the hovering was there, but that's as far as it went.

While Walnut Creek has the newer store, Corte Madera surpasses them with a warm and loving energy, that encourages the comforts of home to be felt, which really inspire you to build and design beautiful spaces. We've purchased our sofa sectional, two arm chairs, two dining tables here; in addition to our pillows, throw blankets and porcelain Christmas ornaments. Hands down, the best Crate location! This location upholds the reputability of Crate as a great American brand. The logo and black and white boxes? ICONIC. And you can always find a deal on something that improves your life at home, year-round! Great prices, with even great quality. And when there are hiccups, customer service is always very responsive. The best!

Honestly, with so many charming pieces to choose from, it's no wonder I left with a little extra sparkle! Service: welcoming staff.

A few non-POC customers arrived after me and were immediately greeted and helped. As I was browsing the dish sets, an employee scooted past me without offering assistance, giving me a look like I was some type of germ. Eventually, someone did come over and asked if I was looking for anything. When I explained I was looking for a gift, she immediately directed me to clearance items. When I pointed out something else, she said, "Oh, but those are regular price--these are on clearance," implying I couldn't afford what I was looking at. Honestly, it felt like you have to be from the upper echelon just to be treated with basic respect.

Also they have good price range of items. However, I have noticed, especially the last few times I've come in, an uncomfortable vibe that takes away from the enjoyment of browsing.

Perhaps walking in in workout clothes after a hike is not the right attire to enter the store, but whatever it is I find the lack of welcome off-putting enough to write this review and avoid this store.

I had a great experience here. I did a return, and also browsed their sale section, which was quite expansive. I was able to find these really cute jeans in my size, that were an additional 50% off, although final sale. Their sale rack was very organized, and very plentiful. There was a whole room full of tops, and two racks of jeans. There were even more random sale items throughout the store, not in the sale section. I was quite surprised. I waited in line twice, once to return, and once to buy my jeans. Neither wait was long at all - just one person ahead of me, quite quick. I don't know why this store such poor reviews, because I had a pleasant experience here!

I went into this store because I am replacing EVERY SINGLE light fixture in a house I just…read morepurchased. I used to live in this neighborhood so was very familiar with the location of this store even though I had never been inside. I decided that I wanted to "shop local" vs purchasing everything online. I have my new kitchen and bathroom designed, the electricians are coming and I am ready to make my selections. I take time from my day to drive over to this place in my old neighborhood. When I arrived, there was another client ahead of me. That was no problem. I wasn't in a hurry as I had set this time aside for this purpose. I was looking around the room and the woman working there asked me what I needed and when I told her, "a lot of lighting" she let me know that she wouldn't be available to help me for 20 minutes or so. I said, that's fine I can wait. Then she asked me if I had made a list of what I needed and what purpose/function I expected from each light fixture. Ummmm. I have a list in my head. I haven't written down a list. I am not a list making type of person but I know my spaces. Then she tells me I need to go home and make a list and come back when I have it because otherwise, I am going to "fall in love" with items out of my budget. Huh?? I was so confused! She had no idea what my budget was. She literally sent thousands of dollars in unsolicited business out the door. This place must not need new clients. That's ok. There are plenty of places that will happily take my money. I walked into an appliance store today and they were thrilled to show me their inventory and assist me in my purchases. It was a stark contrast to my experience at Lunaria. EDIT: To respond to the response. You are not being truthful with what happened. NEVER did you infer that I step out for coffee and come back. I WAS the person who asked for catalogs to look through while waiting and you specifically told me that would be a waste of time without a list. Even your client seemed to pick up on the fact that you were about to lose a customer and she then said, "Here, here are some catalogs if you would like to view them." and that is when I said, "She just said that would be a waste of time and is not her process." If you're going to tell the story, please be honest about what occurred. Super frustrating experience considering I set time aside to come view some lighting and even was very clear that I was in no hurry and didn't mind waiting for you to finish. You made it obvious, you didn't want to speak to me unless I had a list of lighting with what I expected each light to achieve. Those were almost your EXACT words. Not mine. 2nd EDIT: I just saw in your biz description, "Appointments are recommended." This says it all. You could have simply told me, "I would love to help you but it sounds like you have a big project that will be time consuming and I will need you to schedule an appointment. In the meantime, it would be helpful for my process if you make a list..." That would have been much more productive instead of coming across as dismissive and patronizing. As for misrepresenting what occurred, there really is no excuse for that.

I'm a long time World market customer, and huge fan of their merchandise. This location has a pretty large inventory ranging from furniture (living room, dining, desks), home decor, curtains, rugs, beer and wine, imported food, jewelry, kitchenware, gift items, etc. The shopping center parking lot is a hot mess though. Especially on the weekends, there seem to be more customers than parking spaces. Plus since there is only one way in and out, and the street has no designated turn lane, it causes a bottleneck on entering and exiting. Heck it even takes awhile to walk from the parking lot into the shop because the cars just don't seem to want to stop for pedestrians. Too busy jockeying for a space.
