I've been coming to World Market for over a decade and my home shows it. From dishes to rugs to…read morefurniture, this store holds my heart. Everything they offer is quality. Sure, IKEA is IKEA, but when you buy furniture from World Market it's guaranteed to last. Not only is everything quality, but you can find things at this store that you can't find darn near anyplace else. Aside from home goods, they have a huge selection of global food and drinks, including one of the most diverse candy sections around. After coming here for so long you'd think I know everything about this store, but a few weeks ago I learned something new and really valuable. Every department has a clearance section!!! YES!!!! Every department! There's clearance for candles, body wash, men's fragrances, kitchen wares, food and drink, furniture, everything! They also mark down anything from a recent holiday, up to 90% off!! Come on, in this economy who doesn't love a deal? If you can't find one of the clearance sections, just ask someone. All of the employees are so nice and helpful. My favorite clearance areas are the 33% and 55% off food racks located at the back of the store. They are loaded with yummy food - like salami, pasta, gnocchi, baked goods, sodas, coffee, tea, chips, candy - and everything is heavily discounted. A lot of the items have been discontinued, so this is the last chance to buy them. It's the first place I head when I walk in. I've left before with a full grocery bag for less than $8. The next time you find yourself in or near Bridgepoint Shopping Center...GO! Make sure to seek out all of the discounted items. You won't regret it!

I have yelp about an exceptional employee at this location,Andrea, went over and beyond. I searched…read moreall of your stores online to see who had the item in stock that I was looking for. I even called your customer service number and got nowhere. THEN i called your San Mateo store and spoke with Andrea. Andrea looked for the item I was looking for and online it said this store had 3 of the items. Andrea went and looked and couldn't find any of them. Andrea took my phone number and said she'd look in a little while when she had time to do so as she was at the Cash register when I called . In about an hour later Andrea called me back and said she found the item I was starching for at all of your locations. Andrea then put it on hold for me and I will be going, 1st thing tomorrow morning to pick it up. Andrea went over and beyond to make my purchase happen. I used to manage Big Box stores for 20 years and I know 1st hand how important it is to know who your star employees are, well Andrea is definitely a STAR Employee and should be commended for giving such exceptional customer service. Please let Andrea know she made all the difference for my purchase and I will drive all the way to San Mateo because of how great she was! Thank you!

Some of the reviews are baffling. Complaints are about routine "procedures" in every Ross I've been…read moreto, and I've been to probably 2 dozen different Ross stores. Carts cannot leave the store. Stores will only give credit for current sale price if no receipt. This is actually common at more than just Ross. 3 stars for actually having a decent amount of inventory and the sweetest loss prevention girl. The reason I am giving low stars is for the lack of safety. I understand they are closing this location down, but per staff, there has been no light in the parking lot for a year now. This is a huge safety issue for customers AND team members leaving at the end of their shift. I actually felt uncomfortable and don't usually feel like that. Can only imagine how the staff feels. Shame on the complex and store manager for not making this an issue with an unknown closure date!! Your loss prevention gal that night told me the staff has brought it up and they get ignored.

Immediately upon entry, we were singled out and subjected to prolonged and targeted surveillance without cause. While we were initially greeted by a courteous security guard, a Caucasian male employee wearing a face mask began staring at us and proceeded to follow my mother and my minor child throughout nearly every department of the store for approximately 35-40 minutes. This employee repeatedly hovered in close proximity while pretending to straighten merchandise, including in the shoe department, the Christmas section, and the men's shoe department. His actions were continuous, deliberate, and clearly focused on my family--specifically my minor child and elder mother. When we approached the checkout line, this individual positioned himself directly in the jewelry are next to the line and pretended to be on a phone call, continuing his monitoring behavior. Separately, while I shopped independently in the skincare/beauty section and moved through the girls' clothing and baby aisles, a second individual dressed in black clothing--without a shopping cart or merchandise--repeatedly circled the same areas I entered, maintaining constant visual surveillance. This conduct was intimidating, intrusive, and coordinated. At no point were we approached, questioned, or accused of any wrongdoing. We engaged in no behavior that would justify suspicion or monitoring. The only apparent basis for this treatment was our appearance. The targeted following of a minor child and her family under these circumstances constitutes discriminatory conduct and created a hostile and humiliating shopping environment. This conduct may constitute violations of, but not limited to: * California's Unruh Civil Rights Act (Civil Code §51) * California Civil Code §52.1 (Bane Act) * Federal civil rights protections prohibiting discrimination in places of public accommodation

My husband and I purchased furniture from Ana Furniture a couple of weeks ago, and I felt compelled…read moreto share what an exceptional experience we had--largely thanks to Winnie Huang. I want to start by saying that I almost never write reviews. Like many people, I usually only take the time if something goes wrong--but this experience was so overwhelmingly positive that I genuinely felt Winnie deserved recognition. I wanted others to know just how incredible she is. From the very beginning, Winnie provided truly outstanding customer service. We ran into an unexpected issue with our scheduled delivery on 4/4 when we discovered--at the last minute--that our street was going to be closed for an event. Despite the late notice, Winnie was incredibly understanding and immediately helped us reschedule for the following Tuesday without any hassle. When the furniture arrived, we realized the couch delivered was not the color we had selected. I contacted Winnie, and she responded right away with professionalism and care. She confirmed the mistake and promptly arranged for the delivery team to return the sofa and organize a replacement in the correct color within just a few days. Then, after giving it some thought overnight, we realized the sofa we originally chose was actually too large for our space. Once again, Winnie went above and beyond. She patiently listened to our concerns, sent us photos of alternative options, and encouraged us to visit the showroom to try them in person before making a decision. That extra step made all the difference--we ended up finding a sofa we loved even more, and it fit our condo perfectly. Throughout the entire process, Winnie was gracious, responsive, and genuinely committed to making sure we were happy. Her level of care, patience, and attention to detail is truly rare these days. She didn't just help us purchase furniture--she made sure we found the *right* furniture for our home, and she stood by us every step of the way. This is, without a doubt, one of the best customer service experiences we've ever had. Winnie turned what could have been a stressful situation into something seamless and even enjoyable. If you're looking for furniture and want a truly exceptional, stress-free experience, I cannot recommend Ana Furniture enough--especially Winnie Huang. She is an absolute gem, and you will be in the best hands possible.

He was amazing with the service and took the time to explain all the furniture pieces we had questions about. He was super patient, knowledgeable, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. We even decided to add on the delivery service, and Richard made sure we got clear delivery dates and updates on when our dining table would arrive. The furniture was so comfortable that my friend actually fell asleep on it while we were testing it out! The store had a great selection, and Richard really went above and beyond to make sure we found something that fit our space and style. Overall, such a great experience from start to finish -- highly recommend asking for Richard if you visit!

He listens closely for what I want out of my spaces (dining, living, theater) and quickly adapts my input for style preferences into a functional design in my rooms. His renders translate extremely well into the real rooms and I never once feared what I had purchased wouldn't look the way I wanted. In all, I furnished two rooms with two couches, four armchairs, three ottomans, two rugs, one dining table, and eight dining chairs. Each piece was customized to fit the look and feel of the room. Frankly, there isn't another option I've found which hits this level of clean, effortless style and soft, durable surfaces. I would recommend BoConcept and even more, I'd highly recommend working with Paul.

They were patient, thoughtful, and made the whole process feel easy and enjoyable. We originally went in to buy just a sofa, but our designer, Michelle Winter, helped us think about the bigger picture -- how everything would fit together in our space. She has such a great eye for design and gave us so many helpful suggestions on how to decorate and pull the whole room together. While we waited for our order, Michelle kept us updated every step of the way, which we really appreciated. The communication was excellent, and it made us feel taken care of. The furniture itself looks amazing -- super stylish and great quality. We're so happy with our purchase and would definitely recommend BoConcept to anyone looking for beautiful, modern pieces and an awesome shopping experience!
