On a hot summer June day, they were already stocked with Halloween and Christmas items. Their prices are good, and often offer sales and discounts. I was looking for fabric and their selection was good, but I was hoping they would have more of a variety. I browsed many of the aisles and they have something for every occasion. Staff were nice and efficient.

These items are carried at the Lombard Hobby Lobby, which is a beautiful, helpful location. Schaumburg was disappointing. I finally purchased two small Christmas trees to include in the village, only to get home and discover I was overcharged. It was supposed to be 50% off but the cashier typed in the item as a "gift." $8.00 over charged. Poor service, messy store, and incorrect pricing. I'm returning the entire purchase and supporting another store instead.

They also have a large section for international food, wine, and craft beer. They have so much to chose from it can be overwhelming. I was shopping for some coffee products and they had a good selection. When I went to check out one item was marked 50% , I asked the cashier if it came up as 50%, and he seemed annoyed I asked. It had not and he proceeded to tell me sometimes the items are not placed in alignment with the price tag. I told him I was sure it was correct. He called over another clerk and she confirmed it was supposed to be 50%. He never apologized or acknolwedged the error. While I will be back to shop for items, customer service needs to improve.

But the past couple months it's become a weird expensive Amazon search. A ton of overwhelming brands I've never heard of, little quality or relevant options, and prices pretending to be lower but only low compared to the hilarious manufacturers recommended gouging. I've been able to repeatedly find the same thing on eBay cheaper as I wonder around TJ.

As a long time visitor of the Ikea in Bolingbrook, I was very curious as to what the Schaumburg…read morelocation was like. I think that there are pros and cons for both locations. Bolingbrook might be easier to access (there is quite a bit of construction around Schaumburg currently) and I would also debate it is not as busy as this location. However, I did notice the Schaumburg store is not only much cleaner and well maintained, but has way more showrooms and creative displays. I guess if I were buying or in a hurry I go to Bolingbrook and if I was meandering and idea hunting I'd go to Schaumburg. The reason why there are so many showrooms is because this store spans three floors and is in fact, one of the largest Ikeas in America! It is huge and even as a veteran Ikea shopper I still got turned around a couple times. One thing that's nice is this store has the ability to stock more items so I found they had all the items I wanted available. I also noticed this location appeared to have customer service at every corner. I don't know if it's because I went on the weekend but I was thoroughly impressed at how well staffed they were and how friendly employees were during our interactions.

I found this store to be a little dirtier, more crowded, and a bit chaotic in some areas, like near the restaurant. The food selection in the grocery area seemed more limited, and the vegetarian options I was looking forward to purchasing were out of stock. There was some confusion for me regarding the signs near the restaurant promoting their plant-based hot dog. I went to one of the kiosks to order, but we couldn't find it anywhere. It turns out that you can only order these at the small food court after the checkout area.
