    While the name highlights hardware, this is a high end store that has a varied and tasteful selection for your home improvement or remodel projects whether it's creating a master bath, a new kitchen or updating your existing doors and cabinets with some of the most beautiful "hardware" around. What a selection! Styles range from older traditional homes to the modern and I've done both. When I lived in an Old English Tudor built in 1931, I was able to find hardware for my new bathroom and remodeled kitchen, as well as door handles and locks, that fit with the year and style of my home. They have so many choices of stylish sinks, vanities, lighting, mirrors and toilets. Everything you need! When I moved into a new condo, and wanted hardware for my master bath that fit the modern style and decor, Chown had the perfect minimalist handles and knobs. The selection is vast, the largest in town! They also have a great selection of mirrors and medicine cabinets, many that recess in the wall for hidden storage and have LED lighting. Love walking around the showroom to dream and get ideas! The staff is always helpful, will provide consultation and design ideas and are very knowledgeable if you need advice on do it yourself projects. At the same time, if you let them know that you are there to browse, they let you do your thing and I really appreciate that. If you want your bathroom or kitchen to stand out with elegant appliances and fixtures with up-to-date technology, and hardware that serves as the prized "jewelry," then Chown is most definitely the place to shop.

    Chown really went the extra mile for me today. Jason (Chown) helped me solve a problem and save me a ton of money. A screw in the door-lock broke off in the face plate on my Pearl District high-rise unit. And this lock was installed 12 years ago by Chown. So Jason diligently worked through their computer system and found a little bitty screw (for pennies) to fix my door lock as opposed to replacing with a new mechanism, plus the hours and hours of my labor to figure out re-installation. I highly recommend Chown if you need parts and repair in your high-rise, home or condo! And they actually removed the screws from a new door assembly and sold me just the screws. To me that is going beyond the extra mile when they could've sold me the entire unit at full price. Note that Chown has a really "fab" show room to select fixtures for your home fix-it-up or remodel projects! Go there! I know what I'm talking about because I used to be in the remodel business! Now I'm retired--avoiding home repair--seldom hammer anything except "hot toddies" and cold micro-brews at happy hour! For me--Chown will be a go-to place for advice & help (kudos again for Jason) as well as parts.

    I love that this store exists. They've been around Portland for almost 50 years. They are a salvage…read morestore specializing in hardware, lighting, and plumbing from 1860 to 1960. Really, I see two use cases for the store: 1. If something breaks in your old house, you can bring it in to show to them and see if they have a replacement. 2. If you have time to kill and want to get lost, you can wander around their giant maze of a store, looking at stuff. I'm not sure the store is organized enough to be useful for large projects. For example, if you wanted to get a full set of cabinet knobs, or multiple windows, you may or may not be able to find matching ones of them all. But if you want one of each to replace your current ones, sure! That said, staff has always been great. They do their best to help and know the store better than anyone. So if you're looking for something specific, it's worth it to ask. You can email in with pictures and they can look around for you. They accept returns for two weeks which is great because sometimes, no matter how many times you measured, what you got doesn't fit. Some of the descriptions on their website that really ring true: "we are mostly just a wacky junk store" "it may take many days to take a good rummage around" "we offer assorted collectibles, trinkets, whatnots, and whoziwhatsits" And be sure to look out for hippos of all kinds distributed through the store! Maybe a fun scavenger hunt for kiddos?

I agree and when I needed a small item, this is the first place I went. The woman working was rude and unhelpful, so I left. Upon leaving, I saw racist graffiti on the pillar of their store. Two weeks later, the racist graffiti is still there. It's too bad they choose to leave it. Poor experience overall for sure. * edited to one star: hi again Steve. I removed the previous review because of your reply that named the employee I complained about. I cannot allow her name to be used, it's unethical. My behavior is, as always, honest and completely unproblematic. How about you erase the racist graffiti, or do you not even know Billie Holidays music?

    I bet it's a blast to work here. The man at the register was talking excessively to customers to…read morethe point of them trying to walk away, looking very uncomfortable. I placed a pick up order from online and the cashier called the pick up order to be brought forward. The customer service and cashier argued back and forth about whether or not I even placed the order or was at the right store. I confirmed the information through the cashier while he was quite literally hacking up a lung. I can only assume how condescending the customer service people were with how the cashier was also sour to me. Eventually someone else came up to take the line and told me I could go back and they'd fulfill my order. Dumb and dummer were trying to redirect me to purchase a different bag of salt even though I'd already paid for what I wasn't getting. The system ace hardware was pretty stupid and this review isn't about how they couldn't fulfill my order, I don't blame the customer service people for the mix up because that was out of their control. The customer service employees (several. Very braindead expressions) just shrugged and said the only thing to do was cancel the order through my phone. Thank you for reading this novel of a review. Probably a sitcom working there and free entertainment to shoppers. Expect no service. A man was also waiting (from the time I arrived in the store until a little before I left) for a case to be unlocked. Surprising it took so long to help the man considering the group of 19 year old alternative kids in the back.

The date of delivery was to be one week after my order was placed. Well, when the date came and passed I looked back on line and found out it was back ordered. And delivery was expected in the first week of July. Nope. When the first week of July passed I checked back and the item - a simple glass and brass bathroom shelf - remained on back order. And the new delivery date had slipped to the second week of July. Nope. To this date it remains on back order and every few days the website changes the delivery date to...whatever.
