I'm so glad that Pottery Barn came to Canada! I have decorated my home with lots of stuff from this place. The price is slightly more than you might pay elsewhere, but the quality is also superior. I have things from Pottery Barn that I know will last a lifetime - and the one time that I did have a complaint with a product, they took it back and exchanged it, no questions asked (without the receipt). The service people are very friendly. I will keep going back.
Kitchen Stuff Plus is my favourite store for kitchen supplies (actually, it's one of my favourites in general). The prices cannot be beat! On top of everyday low prices for really quality stuff, they always have great sales to take advantage (both in their flyer, and also 'surprise' ones if you just in). They have unique stuff for not only the kitchen, but also for dining room and bathroom decorating. I would recommend this store to anyone who is looking to add some lovely accents to their home.
I have bought tons of home accents from Home Outfitters, and continue to return for the great selection and competitive pricing. I have never been disappointed with a purchase, but have taken advantage of the return policy (which is quite liberal) a couple of times for gifts that I have bought - I have never been given a hassle for either an exchange or a return. The service on the floor I find to be somewhat lacking (you often have to track someone down), but it doesn't matter too much - the store is very well laid-out so that things are easy to find. There are lots of treasures at Home Outfitters.
I just bought a set of mirrors for my home from Canada Glass and Mirror Co. I love them - the glass is obviously top quality - no distortions. What really impressed me about this place was the service - when I initially got the mirrors home, I noticed a tiny scratch on one of them - I called the store, and they offered to have a new one delivered. Now that's what I call service! Great experience, all in all!
