    I feel like I like this store in my head more than I do in reality. They have tons of items, and some in style, but most of it is not. A lot of their decor is outdated by a few years. The isles are super close together, so close in fact, that only one cart fits down the isle, making it impossible to get by other people with carts. The inventory is disorganized and strewn all about the floors. They need employees to help clean up and organize the isles a bit more. All of this would me more acceptable if the prices were cheap, but they really aren't. Sure, you can find some good deals- but most of it is of the same price of things you could buy at HomeGoods, but without the quality and style. This is an okay place to go to walk around and see if you can find anything you like, but there are better places in Des Moines that would better suit your home needs.

    Stores like this are crazy, It's not really my style of stuff, but they have lots of it and I know my mom would love this store! The store is set up very well to navigate and they have very nice and clean restrooms, so Im down with that! If you are looking for furniture, rugs, nick nacks, and other stuff for your home it would be a good spot to stop just for how many options you will have! Again none of it's really my style, but I know lots of folks who love signs that say, "HOME," or some wine glass that says, "Wine Diva." I bet I will find myself back here looking for a gift for my mom or grannies! And I'm glad it's here, so clean, and easy to get around!

    What I like about this store: extensive variety, well organized into sections of where everything is, decent sales, decent prices, lots to choose from. What I dislike about the store: I can never find/see people to help, the shelves get pretty high, the sale items are confusing (example: a sign that reads 50% off on accessories by a section that literally has no items on sale. Example #2: the sale tag will be a color coded slash through the bar code. It's hard to find tags sometimes much less identify if it's on sale), the checkout help does not keep up with the sea of people, many of whom have minimal items, who are ready to go. I went on a Sunday in the middle of the afternoon and there was only one checkout aisle open and the line was quickly accumulating. Not a great idea.

    A newly opened store in Clive! I have never heard of At Home before, but apparently it's a pretty well-known chain store specializing in home decor. Now, I didn't expect too much upon visiting, I honestly was thinking it was going to be like a TJ Maxx with a ton of items, boy was I wrong! First off, this store is HUGE and it's full of shoppers! It really has a lively atmosphere with customers shopping and staff walking about. Second, the selections are great! There were so many home decor items I saw that I just wanted to buy them all! The prices are pretty good, I expected the items I thought were good to be pricey, but it wasn't the case! If you are looking to spice your home up, stop by here and take a look!

    Absolutely a mess. Almost tripped and fell!

    I love all this store has to offer, including their rug selection because of the different styles and low prices. Their cashiers are always friendly, but anytime I've had an associate on the floor assist, they are so rude! They won't do any research, they huff/puff and act like they're being forced to assist. If I could give 3.5 stars here, I would; but I'm giving it four because this is the only bad experience(s) I've had. Definitely worth a visit, especially if you just moved!

    Abstract is what they call this right? :)

    Had the day off so my friend and I decided to stop by At Home since I haven't been there yet. Plus my friend likes it when I spend money lol. Man, this place is amazing! It has everything you would ever want for your house, business, or someone else's house. And everything is priced reasonably, especially when you compare the prices to Homemakers (paintings, décor, accessories). I needed a large painting to go over my fireplace, and there were plenty of paintings (framed, canvas, etc) to choose from. I kept getting distracted from my original goal of finding a large painting since I would see a mirror that I liked, or a smaller painting that could go in the bathroom, or a new lamp that could go on the end tables! So beware of that and hopefully you have willpower :) I found a painting that was around 36" x 36" and it was priced at $79.99. There was a 25% discount that day, so I saved around $20! I should have gotten another one :) I did stop by Homemakers later in the day and a painting this size was well over $150 and some were priced over $250! Overall, I was really impressed with this store. I think I repeated "This store is amazing" several times while walking around with my eyes wide open. I will definitely go back to get some more stuff for the house in the near future.

    I had been meaning to check this place out. Online their prices were comparable to other options around town so I thought I would give them a try. They are in the old Kmart building on University. I was impressed on how clean everything looked when I walked in. They utilized the space very well with rows upon rows of items. This day I was on the prowl for one particular item. I needed new deck chair padded covers. I headed right to that area and then was stuck. For about an HOUR I was stuck. This is a little frustrating when there are no prices posted near the items, just on the individual item. And if you have ever shopped for deck furniture you know no two are alike. There was about 5 rows of these, sorted only by color. I could not tell how many different versions their were, and if I pulled one item out 3 others would topple out. I finally did catch a worker and asked for help. I needed 5 of the same thing. He helped for a moment or two and then kinda said I was on my own. They don't have a real good inventory because the in stock is always changing and the truck always has something different. This was FRUSTRATING. I ONLY wanted 5 of the same thing in the same color, any color but red and they were so disorganized with this simple thing. Finally I found two and then saw (maybe) three up on the top shelf. At this point I was ready to monkey up this wall and take care of this myself. However my better judgment made me walk to the front of the store and ask for help. He told me he would send someone. I told him it was on the top shelf and they would need a ladder. So of course help shows up with no ladder. Okay, now we have a ladder and she gets up there and pulls exactly what I've been looking for out of the pile. Hurrah! So I finally have what I need after an hour and half, get right to the front of the store and they have one person on a register. Well, needless to say, finally was able to get out of there only an hour or so later than I had hoped. Not the best first impression for me. I didn't even get anywhere else in the store other than the restroom. Which was clean BTW. Well see if I go back.

Great job to the owners for making a store be an adventure. Thank you.

The couch was delivered with a broken selectronic headrest on the chaise. It took the company a week to replace it. Within a month the armless recliner mechanism broke. We bought the warranty Unfortunately they are only able to come out Monday through Friday 8:00 to 4:00. Which is when my husband and I work so they could not fix it. We tried to return it but they told us it was outside the 30 days and wouldn't let us return it . We also asked for a refund for our warranty since we can never use it because we work during normal business hours and we were told we had to contact a different company for that .They agreed to exchange it but brought the wrong piece. So one month later ( having a recliner stuck out open in the middle of our living room) we finally got a working armless recliner. Then 3 months later the armless recliner broke again and we went through the exact same problem and it wasn't replaced for a month because first they tried to send out a service person when we weren't home, then sent out the wrong thing before delivering the right piece. I have spent so much time on the phone and chat with this company and I can honestly say it is one of the worst companies and customer services I have ever experienced in my life. The only good part of the company is the delivery guys who I tried to give credit to but come to find out they are third party and don't even work for Bob's. I will never buy anything from this company and will try to stop anybody I know from buying anything from this company.
