After driving by several times and seeing it on Yelp, I went in yesterday to see for myself what it…read moreis all about, and it's a fascinating place. Everything you can imagine from 10-cent golf balls to gorgeous hardwood furniture for $100's, and the three women that were working were really nice and one gave me the rundown on where everything is, how markdowns work, etc. I was oddly attracted to the Target dog (see photo), but it is still there for anyone who has "just the right spot" for it (ha, a little Target dog humor there with "spot"). I went in on a Wednesday right after they opened at noon and there were already several people browsing, I imagine it is pretty busy in here on the weekends.

Not all that inviting, but in conclusion, China Fair is an absolute GEM!…read moreI have driven past this place tons and tons of times and even though Newton has it's own look about it, this place doesn't fit in (when I think of Newton, the atmosphere doesn't even seem somewhat like the rusty old conditions of China Fair, which seems more sensibly located in an old alley in the worst section of Boston). And for a while, I actually thought it was closed. You really can't tell it's open.... and anyone who has the courage to go into the little "shack" on the opposite side of the building, called the "Paper Annex", with a small paper sign on the door, HAS to have some bravery. Even though it looks closed, drive up behind the building (even though it looks like a one way road... I can guarantee you, it isn't), and park your car, if you are looking for the best prices throughout the large city of Newton on any storage containers, timers, baskets, mason jars, wine glasses, kitchen utensils, mugs, plates / bowls, small appliances, decor for home, towels, and all sorts of other stuff. They even sell banana holders (too bad, I hate bananas). Anyway, the woman working was friendly, and the prices throughout the store were well lower than any of the nearby competition. Remember, think Newton here. Bloomingdale's, Crate & Barrel, and HomeGoods are the three only other places I can think of with this kind of stuff, and while HomeGoods, specifically, has good prices, but still nothing like this! I have to take off a star for the poor design of the parking lot and driveway of this place, as well as the building that is in major need of an overhaul, but I still highly suggest it. 4 stars for China Fair.

I had a need for a somewhat unusually shaped desk, and a friend suggested I talk to the folks at…read moreThe Door Store. I did so, and I'm so glad I did... The entire process was pleasant and smooth... The store staff walked me through all of my options for woods, finishes, etc and made the pricing structure of each choice very clear. Delivery was also just as agreed, obviously for an unusual custom item, there were a few weeks lead time, but they actually delivered a week earlier than originally estimated, and the delivery team was very considerate and careful. The finished desk is simply stunning; even better than I had hoped.

I came to The Door Store to ask them to build me a desk. Their knowledge of the different options…read moreof woods and designs available to meet my needs was exemplary. I placed an order and then after leaving realized that I have chemical sensitivities to fresh glues and stains, and called to ask them to see if we could work out a solution. They were respectful and knowledgeable, and quickly came up with a solution which eliminated any risk of triggering my sensitivity. I would (and will) buy from them in the future, and highly recommend them. They are good people with a great knowledge base who love their work and care about their customers.

There is truly something for everyone. Huge variety of items at all different price points. There is so much to see and discover inside this shop. Helpful hint: Be sure to also look beyond the more curated portions of the shop! Spend some time "digging"' and rummaging through bins, drawers, and stacks and you will not be disappointed! Lots of hidden treasures, jewelry, ephemera, etc. Hope and her team are friendly, knowledgeable, and fair.

Starting in 2021ish, we acquired 3 bookcases from the Bookcase Factory Outlet. We hope that our…read morefamily will treat them as heirlooms. Don't let the interior of the store deceive you. This place is a gem. Prices for what they offer are reasonable. The service is always excellent. The variety of choices is too large to contain in the store. Admittedly, the website could be improved to share information more easily, but the catalogs are there. Part of the fun is figuring out what you want, so prepare to collect information, figure things out at home and come back to finalize your order. We will continue to order our bookcases - and other furniture - from the bookcase factory outlet.

The owner, Eugene, couldn't have been nicer and his showroom consisted of about seven rooms!

He paid a fair price and did all the lugging, even from the 3rd floor apartment. He is an interesting and cordial man and as I see from other comments, true to his word about pricing in his store. I can without reservation highly recommend the tool shed in Waltham.
