The skillet is not tall enough to keep vegetable in it while stir frying. I did a lot of research and found Taku ironware make cast iron cookwares that are perfect for stir frying Asian cuisine. I also adore the story behind the brand and the high quality of their cast iron cookwares when I see them in person. I am so glad to find out they have a shop near where I live. The owner is very friendly and knowledgeable about their products. I was looking for a 10.2" skillet but end up with 11" and the regular glass lid. I thought 11" going to be too big and heavy but I was wrong, it's perfect. I am hoping to upgrade all my cast iron cookwares in the future so I will definitely shop there again.

William's mother greeted me, took my knives, and reminded me of the price range per knife. On Friday morning, I got a text that my knives were ready and confirming the final price. Pick up was quick and easy, and the knives are well sharpened. Two of my knives are polished to a shiny finish, and William was able to maintain that shine. The knives cut so much better now, and I'm sure I'll be back in the future. A few notes - the gate to the backyard is in the cul de sac (not the main street that the front door is on), so when you send the text letting them know that you've arrived, they'll meet you at that side gate. They only accept cash or Venmo. They don't give you the final price or pickup time until the work is done, I think because William needs to assess the knives. The price felt fair to me given the quality of work, just something to be aware of!

I had a specialty vegetable cleaver that I needed repaired and sharpened. It had been used by someone to cut something they shouldn't have and there was a nice chunk missing. I brought it into the store and dropped it off. It was ready in a matter of days and the price was more than reasonable, despite them having to do some extra work to get rid of the chip. What j I appreciate it is that they did the repair in a manner that maintained the integrity of the Knife when they could've just had their way with it. I wouldn't have known the difference. They also have a nice variety of kitchen accessories and I was able to pick up a knife sheath to protect everyone from the now razor Sharp clever.

I honestly do not like the little chaos, but the line for the regular registers was rather lengthy!

Today Bixia assisted me and I think she deserves more than the 5 star rating Yelp is providing. Thank you for your friendliness and efficiency Bixia! I went close to noon today and the store had a few couples walking around. The minute I walked inside the store, Bixia greeted me and asked if she could assist. She saw I had a list in my hand and automatically commented me for doing my homework. Took less than 2 minutes plus her expertise on this 2 quart pot I was looking for and she sold me a product! Sad the store didn't carry my item, but it was ordered online and the whole process took a couple minutes. I was overall impressed with Bixia's efficiency. Her colleague at the register was equally friendly even though he just greeted me on my way out. I was just at the Hillsdale location last night and that store is half the size of this Valley Fair location. The shelves were not as organized and poorly lit. No one greeted me at the door. There were only two associates and one manager I later spotted, but the customer service threw me off--you had to walk up to ask for help and later on give you the feeling they are readily available at the door when they act like they are monitoring you...watching you like you'll walk away with something. Ratings were on point about what this location lacked and wished I read the reviews prior to coming in. Take notes Hillsdale, there's a reason Valley Fair has more stars and foot traffic.

This store pretty much has all their vanities on display so you can see the different wood finishes and size options, which ones come with a sink and which ones have a separate sink. The prices are great compared to other custom vanity places. The store is huge and seems overwhelming. They carry a lot of products for your kitchen, bathroom and other rooms in your home. Since I was focused only on purchasing a vanity, I tried my best not to look at all the other products they carry, such as floor tiles, wood floors, bathroom tiles, shower fixtures, toilets, mirrors, shower doors, etc. So much to look at!! Richard helped me with my questions. He was knowledgeable and patient. He showed me comparable products around the floor then put my order together. Most items are in stock! That's great!! No need to wait for delivery. What I like about PHD is that I can purchase my products and my contractor can pick them up. I don't have to haul a vanity in my tiny car. Returns have a restocking fee.
