I can quickly see it was rated at 1.6 stars as I submit this review. I should be grateful they couldn't open on time, sure saved me another half hour of my life. the manager couldn't show up to open the doors, employees and birthday party just sitting outside in a panic. Thank goodness it wasn't my kids birthday party. i brought my laptop to work but it turns out that youre not allowed to use the outlets. the manager quickly came over and said that it must be unplugged because it's a "kids place". Despite being tucked away and cord going from the table to the outlet and nothing on the floor. This "kids place" is obviously "OK" to have electrical cords stretched to the walls for the arcade games. I really felt targeted by her and got a real sense of racism from her enforcement. No WiFi. No wristbands to make sure kids don't leave with the wrong adults. I will never come back to this location. read more

Do not take kids here!!!The owner told my son that he was not allowed to touch any of the toys. What a crazy policy to have...how can I decide if he likes a toy or not if he can't look at at Items are overpriced...$40 for a Thomas storage bench that was in poor condition Worst part of all...there is a GIANT dog in the store, the biggest dog I have ever seen! A dog in the store....really...gross Will not be back. read more

This place is just weird. Some nice clothes but the prices are all over the map. I go in only about once a season. The past two visits, the same Northface fleece jacket is hanging in the boys section for $40. How much was it new?? $50? It's USED! And if it's sitting that long, it's marked way to high. The place is somewhat in disarray, especially around the front desk area. The owner is somewhat blunt/bossy and VERY talkative. Overall, there are better consignment shops that aren't quite as quirky! read more

Poor service from BOTH a consigner and consumer side. As a 1st and only time consigner I can say they are so disorganized, disrespectful of one's time & the worst company I've ever consigned with. They dont keep inventory of your items so youll spend 20 min of them trying to figure out which of your items were sold. Then they require the manager to be there in order for you to get paid. They wont & cant tell you your balance over the phone so then you must waste your time driving up there to see if you sold $0 versus $10 you will really have no idea. And like I said if the manager is not there then you don't get paid how crazy is that. From a consumer end this place is pack rat of items that is poorly kept including babies toys kept out on the lawn outside for all types of elements to get to the toys. Ridiculous. I will never shop nor consign here again. So disappointing read more

Kids Emporium - Baby Gear & Furniture Near Me - Cornelius, North Carolina

I think the owner is rude. Not friendly to people with kids. No public restroom for a 3 year old who had to pee. Won't be spending my money there. read more

The lady actually yelled at my 2 year old who was only holding a baby doll which we had intended on purchasing. No sale lady. Hire someone who likes kids if you want to run a store full of kid stuff. read more

If I could put 0 stars I would. Worst place EVER. The owner is so nasty and rude. She talks badly about every other kids consignment store and sale every time I have been there. At her last sale she insulted me on what I was feeding my kid for lunch. She bad mouthed the restaurant I chose. She has always been negative, I have never heard her say anything positive. I will NEVER go back to her store or her sales again. I would rather spend my money at other local businesses that support one another, not bring them down. read more

Store is murky and smells due to the fact the owner has her huge dog in the store! Don't get me wrong I like dogs, but this is not the place for animals to be and the store really smells of the dog. The prices seem overpriced and they do not compare their to prices to online sites such as Amazon (other stores in the area do). The owner is not friendly. Better alternatives in the area. They have a decent selection of items. read more

Extremely well organized, clean clothes, great place to find nearly new clothes and shoes at a great price. I shop here regularly and it's the best consignment store around with good price and selection. read more

The owner yelled at my well behaved child for touching a bike. We of course decided not to buy it. The prices are high and the store is dark and depressing. I prefer Goodwill. read more

Have been there a few times, the owner is not friendly, told my child not to touch the toys. It's a toy store! Items overpriced, shelves in disarray so you have to dig through things to see what's there. One time I pulled up in the empty parking lot, and the owner ran out and barked at me to move my car, apparently I'd parked in a space too far from her store? I should have kept driving. read more

This establishment has been an absolute nightmare to deal with. I am speaking purely from a consigner standpoint. I took three large items in to consign. All three sold however two of the items tickets have been lost. I have been attempting to rectify this with Barrie for almost six months and am met with unreturned phone calls and over all blaze attitude when approached in person. The staff is unable to pay out any thing, only the owner and are unwilling to speak to you over the phone. Stay far away. They are extremely disorganized and unprofessional. If I could give this zero stars, I would. read more

I am only giving this place 1 star because ZERO stars is not an option! I warn everyone...do not do business with this person! Owner is extremely rude! She doesn't like kids and probably doesn't like people. Store is way over priced, dirty and unkept. Owner talks about her paying customers behind their backs after they leave. She has a big dog that smells like mildew and slobbers all over everything. I love dogs but this one is just nasty! She won't allow your kids to play with any of the toys for sale, she doesn't allow ANYONE to use her bathroom. I saw a new customer bring in items to consign and the owner talked down to her the entire time. The owner looked at me, the customer, a couple of times and rolled her eyes at her potentially new consignor. In all my experiences with thrift store and consignment store shopping, I have never come across anyone as blatantly rude, obnoxious and totally unappreciative of her customers as this woman. You have been warned!! read more
