I spoke with a number of people there who all seemed quite knowledgeable people and when I got beyond their area of expertise they paged the resident expert in that area to come and help me. Such friendly and helpful staff. At one point they even paged the expert in aquatic plants and fish Jerry, who provided a lot of expertise in a short period of time. Garden Works is central to many areas of the lower mainland of Vancouver​ and is just off Lougheed Highway in the middle of Burnaby. I suspect whatever your passion is as a garden they will have the plants or equipment you will need.

Well that was my last time here. Sad, I just wanted 10 pcs of 2x4s ...?

But I soon noticed that some of their furniture is really nice, even if the prices are a bit out of my range. I then ventured downstairs and came across a large, solid wood dining room table for only $800. I was thrilled! This was on sale, I think because it had a scratch or two, but I didn't notice anything wrong with it. There were some okay looking lamps and a lot of furniture downstairs. I would definitely get a few pieces of the furniture if I could bring myself to spend a few grand.

Update as of March 30/19:…read more A after posting this review on Facebook, Google and Yelp I was contacted by management at at CF interiors, who promised me they were going to investigate what happened with my sectional. Two days later I was contacted by Kenner, the new warranty manager, who actually came to my home to check out the situation I had been dealing with. He was very empathetic and promised to go back to the owners of both CF and Van Goh to seek a resolution, I have to say I was very skeptical. Within a week I was given an offer from Kenner; Van Gogh would reupholster my sectional in the same grade fabric, at no cost to me and the work would be done in my home! After selecting the fabric we waited about 6 weeks as it was on route from the US, once Van Gogh received it it was cut to the specifications and a date was arranged to have it "installed". Van Gogh was able to reupholster my sectional in one day, in my home, as promised, using a crew of 5 people! Although the new fabric still stretches and wrinkles slightly it has not as noticeable as the previous fabric, it also has a slight pattern in the weave. I am very thankful to Kenner and CF Interiors for reopening this issue after I had basically decided to accept the sectional I originally received, I'm sure it was a lot of conversations with the owners and manufacturer to get this done. I am now happily enjoying my sectional and can say I would recommend CF as they clearly have stood behind their reputation.

Great selection, great customer service…read more One of the bigger locations, as you can see from pic. Bright store, high ceilings. Even some minor home/kitchen stuff too. Came here to look for 2 things: rat poison and some sort of floor cleaner mop. Friendly lady took me to the center aisle, mentioned how there seems to be a lot of people asking too. But after looking at the abundance of rat solutions, kinda disgusted me, even picking up the boxes to read the back for instructions, imagining the mess, etc. and what have you....kinda lost my mood to shop further lol. Free parking in the back too. Amex yay.

We first found her business on Facebook' marketplace almost 2 years ago and my girlfriend drove all the way from Ladner and I meet her when she was selling plants off her house in north shore. Fast forward I was so happy for all her success and the. Pandemic hit us still I believed in her and knew she will pull through this, having mentioned all this back story - Eyra you worked so hard to open the doors of your shop on marine drive and I'm sorry to say this on public platform - however you do need to look little harder who you have hired for your storefront - she doesn't comply with your hard- work and your BRANDING and where you came from and how you got where you are. My girlfriend and I came to the store and I was so excited to come to little space of tropical bliss. Every question we asked her regarding price etc she said she is not sure - girl how about say Let me find out. That's all I wanna share today. If you can ignore her ignorance and pass the difficult hindrance please do support this local women entrepreneur. May you find someone equivalent to your vibes and I'll make sure We call and check if you are in store or not when we visit next.
