I bought a "Fjords" leather swivel recliner there many years ago that still looks new; I will never part with it. For my recent purchases I worked with Leslie Gray; she is sooo helpful. I normally prefer to browse alone but this place is huge; and so is the wide variety of goods. It was really beneficial and nice to have a design consultant there to guide me. Leslie sized me up in no time and had me looking at the perfect items for my current needs.....this saved me not only money, but a lot of time as well. Kudos to Leslie and Merrill's Furniture.

This particular location is very clean and organized, which is greatly appreciated when you are perusing their aisles for random things. Without fail, I always walk in not expecting to find anything worth buying but walk out with a hundred dollars worth of purchases. This location is great for buying kitchenware, glassware, home decor, and pet supplies at a steal.

The prices on the items are normal retail prices and each rack will have the percentage off above it. Most of the clothes are 30% off the retail prices. If you look, you may find a rack with 50% off or more and they have specials on items they are looking to move. We have the LLBean MasterCard so we have points and can use the points at the store. That makes for some great shopping. Staff is always helpful.

We visited a NY outlet back in early March but were stumped to noticed there weren't any home stores and left us with the urge for 'home' outlet shopping. So on our drive south to Portland, ME from Bar Harbor, hubs and I decided to see this L.L. on Rt 1 in Ellsworth. I honestly think the men's clothing (more so than the women's) are a bit on the cool side so picked up a few casual tops for my husband since he's still working from home and some lightweight cargo pants. While I'm a proud owner of their heavy-duty canvas totes for the last umpteen years (I own 2 large ones), the clothes not so much. L.L. women's clothes aren't my style- and not to say anything wrong about it, but the clothes are more for a certain crowd. There are those duck boots and small wooden furniture on the floor also for sale. But I finally got my hands on a white-grey cotton sheet set and a down grey comforter that I've been wanting. As the cashier scans your items, you'll notice their original, jacked-up prices- so don't let it spook you the way it did to me as discounts are applied at the end. Once we paid, I didn't feel this was my doom-and-gloom outlet visit. Service was nice and respectful by the way.
