While sauntering along Main Street this weekend I came upon this little gem. Nineteen Ten is a…read moreboutique filled with many unique and interesting items for the home. These include, but are not limited to, cards, rugs, workshop cage lights, wooden stools, cardboard house kits, prints and cushions from local designers, welcome signs, and various other useful and beautiful items. So the next time I am desperate for a gift for the person that has almost everything I think I will head back here. Plus they carry a small assortment of Christmas ornaments (my kryptonite) that I can ogle.

This is a fantastic store with a beautifully curated eye…read more The store is open, with white walls and dark wood bookcases and tables. All of the items have been wonderfully curated items from a good number of different sellers and makers. From candles, cards, to vases. This is definitely one of my favorite stores in Vancouver. If you are looking for a gift for a family member, a friend or yourself, then this is one of the first places that you should go to, to find a unique item with a modern feel. The woman that was working at the counter was incredibly friendly and approachable, the prices were reasonable, and the selection was fantastic. It was as if someone made a giant Etsy Treasury, and threw in a good number of the best things.

Luminosa Light Designs - A True Standout in Service and Dedication…read more Coming in off the street with a quirky, hard-to-solve problem, I wasn't sure what kind of help I'd be able to get. But Carmen at Luminosa Light Designs jumped in without hesitation. After more than 45 years in the construction industry, it's rare -- and refreshing -- to meet someone who offers their time, energy, and expertise without any guarantee of compensation. She tackled the challenge of tracking down a reluctant supplier and worked tirelessly to find a solution and fair pricing. Her passion for what she does, her professionalism, and her deep knowledge of the field are simply unmatched. Thanks to Carmen, I didn't just find a solution -- I found a team I'll be loyal to. I'm not just a customer now -- I'm an advocate for life.

Terrible quality furniture! Not only are there factory defects but the build quality and materials…read moreare flimsy and feel like cardboard: * The finish quality is terrible with chips and chunks missing which the seller said was "normal factory defects" * The actual drawer dimensions are much smaller than represented so even though the dresser is much larger than my 3-drawer from Ikea it holds the same amount of items despite being 5-drawers * No matter how much adjusting and levelling, the drawers always roll open 1-2 inches which is infuriating * The dresser rocks back and forth when I touch it and feels like it will fall apart * The seller tries to imply the problems are due to the assembler (me) but I have built many dozens of flat packed furniture items from Ikea, Homcom, JSYK, Prepac without issue and immediately noticed the poor design and material quality of this item when I unpacked it I tried to resolve the issue with the company when I bought the item many months ago and despite my dissatisfaction and going back and forth, they only offered a small discount of $30. Now many months later every time I walk past the dresser I am reminded that you get what you pay for and why not to buy from companies like Pro Lite. Do yourself a favor and unless you need furniture that is not intended for actual use without falling apart within a few months then save yourself from disappointment and look elsewhere. *Update - the seller responded by falsely posting that the item was "clearance inventory, which consists of previously repaired units or items with known factory defects" but at no time was this disclosed or was it made clear. FALSE ADVERTISING. The seller also said I had the "opportunity to view and inspect the assembled dresser in person" but this is also a lie. The item was shipped (at my expense) to me flat packed in the original factory packaging - it was never previously assembled. This company is ran by scammers. BE WARE!!!

The former Vancouver Architectural Antiques, a fixture on Main Street for two decades, was reborn…read moreand rebranded earlier this year with a "renewed" focus on restoring early nineteenth and twentieth century lighting pieces, antique decor, and various architectural elements in their new location.

In the back, Renew features a dedicated space for carefully restoring and maintaining many of its complex artifacts to their former glory.

My client and I purchased 1000 sq ft of Evoke laminate flooring at the Jordan's Flooring Outlet…read morelocated in Richmond, BC, under the personal verbal assurance from the sales supervisor Ron that any unopened flooring could be returned for full refund within 30 days of picking up the order. When we returned to make a return on the excess flooring material, Ron denied making such remarks and claimed that we lied in order to make a return. We found this accusation to be offensive and insulting. After a series of reasoning, he agreed to accept the return but asked for a 25% restocking fee which was never mentioned nor written. Even after the return had be made, he continued to question my client's honesty and claimed that she over ordered to receive "special pricing" on orders over 1000 sq ft. It is worth mentioning that prior to purchasing the flooring, we brought in the floor plan layout of the unit and were advised by Ron to order 1035 sq ft of material. So that claim by him was false and insulting. Upon leaving the store, Ron was still making remarks that we lied and even said, and quote "maybe I will reverse the refund". I believe that is illegal and my client will be checking her Visa statement to see if he indeed do so. This has been one of, if not the worst experience we've had at any stores and the supervisor's behaviour and mannerism is completely unacceptable. We will not return to this store in the future.
