And a dog toy that was my dog's favorite which just happened to be offered as a jumbo version of itself. It's just so crowded and things are stuffed on the shelf everywhere. Cheaper versions of items you would find at higher and stores are often broken or marked down, scattered in with super expensive Italian leather bowls, and topped off with accent chairs that are $600. It's simply chaos and all over the place. I might pass on an offer to visit the store again. A redeeming quality was the checkout cashier was super friendly and ready to help me when one of my items was not charge correctly.

The cashier at the entryway stays focused on his phone, continuously scrolling without looking up. Considering this location and position of the cashier with the employee lack of attention this should be a safety concern, not just customer service. I didn't find a medium size non toxic Wok. I did find other non toxic pan options. At Home has a large selection here of everything your heart desires. I found the store to be well stocked and easy to shop as it wasn't crowded. The prices were reasonable for the items I purchased. I look forward to returning again. At checkout the individual at the front spoke and seems pleasant when I was leaving. This should be the approach when customers are arriving.

I worked with Lavish for over a year on a major remodel and would never recommend them. Jenny is nice and I love her design aesthetic but I found them disorganized, unreliable, and dishonest. They sell a good story and can't deliver. I had several items delivered that looked markedly different than the ones we had approved (so many excuses) and months of ignored emails/phone calls/texts. My kitchen and laundry room are GORGEOUS but it was not worth the headache, I am very sorry to say.

I had a fantastic experience at Hunt & Gather. My friends and I decided, on a whim, to go check out…read morean antique store. We stumbled upon Hunt & Gather on Yelp and went. This store is pretty big inside; you would never know it by looking at it from outside. It is filled with treasures both big and small. Like any antique store (or like most), it is a bit crowded with items. Personally, I like that. You really are 'hunting' for treasures here. Yesterday I found this beautiful trinket on the floor of a booth...I would have never found it had I been in a rush. I highly recommend you take your time here. Google reviewers seem more critical of Hunt & Gather and its staff...but personally I had a very different experience. On Google, people wrote that staff was following them, being rude, and that this place was overpriced. Now...your mileage may vary...but I found the staff to be extremely kind. They would check in on me a couple times just to see if I needed help, but largely let me do my own hunting in peace. I think some items are certainly pricey and I can't quite understand why, but by and large I found the prices to be competitive. For example, you can get an entire Noritake china set (with 12 settings!) for $450. Anywhere else this could go easily for $700+. You can buy some dupes at HomeGoods for sure, but HomeGoods aint that cheap -- and I'd argue some of the pieces here are priced even more competitively than HomeGoods. I bought 3 chinoiserie vases/jars yesterday (at ~$30 a pop) and am soooo enamored by them. All in all, I'd recommend you swing by especially if you're furnishing, or refurnishing, your home. There are some really nice things here....and I think I may come by every now and then just to see what's in stock!

Also they sometimes sample out a mean rum punch, y'all, and I want the recipe. Meanwhile, you end up browsing the plethora of goods, from floor to high ceiling, and your teen thanks you for her new buttery soft socks and you come home looking fabulous in a faux fur poncho you never knew you needed. They even carry oil paintings from local artists, one of which is now a delightful addition to our holiday decor. I also noticed a nice university gear section - we just have to figure out what side we're on. Whether you're for Pack, Heels, or Devils, there is a particularly posh selection of college gifts here. I like their people too. They'll hold all your stuff for you when you came for one thing but keep browsing and picking up more. The owner is like that classy auntie who's more fun than you and knows where to get all the good stuff, so you don't have to. And they gift wrap! Bottom line: This store makes me happy. Go visit and sample the spicy crackers.

I'm not sure if she was the owner, but an older lady walked up and asked if she could help which I responded no, that I was just shopping.

They sent a designer to our house to take a look at our space with us and to recommend a nice layout and colors to match our room for us. Our living room is a bit challenging as it has an unusual number and placements of doors and windows and a fireplace, so it was confusing for us to design the space on our own. We found their designer's insights to be wonderful, and years later we still love the furniture and feel of the room. I haven't noticed any wear on their pieces, and we even have a toddler testing it out how durable it is now. My one complaint is that I wish they had a larger showroom, but I'm sure the real estate in the mall comes at a hefty price.

You can rent out any of the rug samples you want and take a look at them in your house before you commit. If you are not in the market for furniture they also have some nice gift items. Things like Nest candles, local chocolate bars, small kitchenware gifts. Things along those lines!

They have not been open long, but every time I have visited there have been other shoppers in the store.

I had a great time browsing their selection of scented soaps, candles, artwork, etc. and am trying to resist the temptation to go back and buy a really gorgeous decorative bowl for my bookshelf (at least until I recover from Christmas shopping).. but I'll probably cave when I have to drive by this place twice a day once school's back in session.
