They have a lot of classic staple pieces which is great, but I love how they also have super unique and colorful pieces too. It's very similar to Home Goods but slightly nicer and more expensive (understandably).

Around here, I checked out the Westwood location and it was also well-stocked and organized, and the Framingham location definitely has all the qualities of the other stores. The physical space has more of an "industrial" feel to it, but if you need a sofa or something else that is too large for Home Goods, this is your place. They also have multiples of items, so if you see one chair in a Home Goods and need two, you might luck out here. They also have all of the kitchen, linen and decorative items you need, and nice employees as well. Stop in when you are in the area and check out this store along with your Marshall's and TJ Maxx shopping!

She is always so helpful, responsive, and nice. She does a nice job of understanding what our style is and what our needs are. We have bought several major pieces of furniture, accessories, accents, and decor. There have been a couple of items that our family damaged or the piece required repair and Arhaus/Robin has been unbelievable in response and service. All have been repaired by a technician that came to our home or the entire piece of furniture was replaced! For example, we had a chaise ($1250) that a tufted button popped out and the technician could not fix it. Arhaus replaced the whole piece! Who does that? Unreal customer service. Go to Arhaus, they are the best

Then, on delivery day, we learned that our arrogant salesman placed the WRONG ORDER for the King bed frame. When Bob's customer support got back to us, turns out, switching the wrong frame for the right one, with drawers, (which is more expensive than the basic frame without drawers and requires a box spring), would take an EXTRA TWO WEEKS. Then, on delivery day for the RIGHT bed frame, one of the delivery men BROKE ONE OF OUR STAIR BOARD STEPS! They said corporate would handle damages and get the repair taken care of, and they called the support to start a claim. If I could give 0 to negative stars, I would. Because...GUESS WHAT?!!! Their claims department just denied our claim and tried to gaslight us, so they could be CHEAP and wiggle their way out of responsibility and liability for the damage they caused to our property. They claimed that the damage was due to "normal wear and tear" This situation has been infuriating. So the lesson here is, if you want to have your ORDER MISPLACED, then have the replacement DELAYED, have you PROPERTY DAMAGED upon said replacement, and then DENIED FOR REPAIR CLAIMS, Go with the Natick Bob's Discount Furniture.

HomeGoods in Framingham is a large location with a broad and regularly rotating inventory that…read morecovers kitchen items, home decor, furniture, bedding, bath supplies, and seasonal goods across a wide range of aesthetics and price points. We walked into a store that rewards browsing rather than targeted shopping, since the stock changes frequently enough that what was there last week may not be there this week and something unexpected tends to surface on most visits. The selection here is genuinely varied, and the discounts on home goods relative to what the same categories cost at full price retailers are the main reason the store draws the regular traffic it does. Kitchen items in particular tend to offer strong value, and the decor section covers enough range that most aesthetic preferences find something worth considering. Seasonal inventory, particularly around the holidays, brings in items that sell quickly and reward earlier visits in the season. Checkout is a longer process that can wear on you. The register staffing runs lean, and wait times of fifteen minutes or more are not unusual even for small purchases. Weekday visits do not reliably avoid the problem the way you might expect, so building some extra time into the trip is sensible regardless of when we go. For a home goods treasure hunt with genuine savings and a consistent checkout bottleneck, HomeGoods in Framingham delivers on value but demands patience at the register.

They have a big selection of Vera Bradley bags/accessories, including the fabulous winter collection of Snoopy (see attached pic) items.

I've always found the store to be clean, neat, and well stocked. On this visit, I was interested in purchasing a larger Epicurean cutting board. I tried a small Epicurean board and really liked it, so I decided to get a full-sized version. These cutting boards are made in the USA from a paper composite material. They're durable, knife-friendly, nonporous, thin, and very lightweight. I find them much easier to use and maintain than traditional cutting boards. Sur La Table had many sizes to choose from, and I selected the 17-by-13-inch version. I stepped up to the register and was helped immediately. It cost $54.95. Tip: If you know the size you want, Amazon offers these for about $10 less.

Three employees were at the register when I arrived on Sunday May 24th around noon: Basil (great name!), another guy and a young woman (brownish hair, a little below the shoulders with NO personality at all). Very friendly Basil went to the back to get my dish towel while Ms. No Personality scowled about needing my ID because telling my name and exactly what I was picking up was not enough. That is fine (note that I also offered to show Friendly Basil the bar code for pick-up from my email, but he probably had gotten my order ready because he knew all about it), but when I pulled out my license I noticed that she barely looked at it...... it's as if she just wanted to be aggravating for a moment. Well, she was. Here is an idea for her (and the store manager): "may I please see your ID" would be a REALLY polite thing to say! Or just that barcode, which I did just offer to show. 5 stars to Basil, 0 stars to the obnoxious girl
