I visited on a Friday afternoon and still had to park 2 blocks away(though the walk was lovely). When I walked in, the place was clean and tidy. It's exactly what I look for in a store. The right amount of products, but not too overwhelming. It made it easy to decide what to get, and all products were made with natural ingredients. I had brought my own jars, but ended up wanting to try some additional products, so I was very happy that they had some available. I will definately bring some to replenish the free jars area next time! I came for Castille soap, but left with: - Heliotrope rosemary shampoo - Heliotrope rosemary conditioner - Silver Carp Dog treats(which my dog loopholes! It smells so strong of fish.) A lot of their products are priced my weight, so it's convenient to try something new! This was my first time trying Heliotrope, so I filled two little bottles and ended up paying about $2 for both. Dr.bronner's castille soap is $0.55/Oz. I paid about $10 for my bottle and it'll last me about half a year(I use it as body wash, hand wash, and ocassionally laundry). So, I find refilleries like these to be quite economical. They also have a very good selection of cute dryer balls! The owners were also very sweet and they have a very cute dog.

We sent our kitchen assembly instructions ahead of time to make sure they were aware. My overall sense is that Carlos is fairly capable and experienced but either his team or him are not as careful as we had damages to our finished wood toe kicks and our lacquer cabinets looked like they had been dragged over nails as they were being assembled. I didn't appreciate that they made 0 mention of it at all and I had to point it out. As the homeowner, I essentially had to baby sit them for 5 days through the install since it felt like they were incapable / unwilling to read the kitchen cabinet installation instructions in detail and I caught several mistakes early on during the cabinet assembly that made me hesitant to leave it unattended. Carlos's attitude was particularly bad through the entire experience as well. Always made it seem like we were inconveniencing him or being too nit picky even if we caught some mistakes. At one point, he even threatened to quit after the assembly but before the installation simply because he had underestimated the complexity of the project. We did have a 1 day delay due to some plumbing / electrical issues but that's pretty typical as far as kitchen cabinet installations go AFAIK. In the end, they were able to get all the kitchen cabinets installed, albeit with a lot of effort from my end due to the more custom nature of the project. The price was affordable and the work was solid (minus the scratches) but for me the bad attitude wasn't worth it.
