There is a playfulness about everything and I always walk out of there feeling the good vibes. And their gift wrapping is on point! The owners are involved in the community and care about making the South Bay a welcoming space. As a gay family in Hermosa it can feel sometimes like we are the only ones, but when my kids see the rainbows and pride on our usual walk from the beach up Pier Ave, I know we have settled in the right place to raise our family and are so grateful for neighbors like Curious making our little beach community feel like home.

Review #982 2026-048…read more HomeGoods is located on the north end of Torrance Promenade; the store replaced part of defunct Kmart. Owned by TJX, it's a sister company to T.J. Maxx & Marshalls, selling home accessories, furniture, linens, cooking products, etc. HomeGoods used to offer online shopping but removed it a couple of years ago (10/2023) to refocus on the "treasure hunt" in-store experience due to low e-commerce sales & ever changing inventory for that surprise find. Their inventory of "home goods" is usually larger, better, & competitively priced in comparison to its sister companies. HG also stocks snacks, treats, coffees & teas, etc., but their prices are slightly higher than T.J. Maxx & Marshalls. Over the years, I alternated between this location at Torrance Promenade & the one in Torrance Crossroads on Crenshaw Blvd. (refer to Review #821) for deals on bedding, blankets, cookware & kitchenware, etc. I prefer shopping here for cookware & kitchenware because it's better organized than the hodgepodge at Torrance Crossroads. Parking is equally challenging since they're next door to Marshalls, particularly on weekends. My recent visit was looking for a nonstick fry pan replacement. Marshalls stocked only ceramic frying pans... this popularity surge was due to their marketing as a non-toxic, eco-friendly, & safer alternative to Teflon, ceramics' nonstick properties durability is short by 1/2 or more of the estimated lifespan. I was so happy to find an All-Clad pan... both versions: ceramic & nonstick were available, & I stuck with the nonstick (pun intended... LOL). Since we recently adopted a 2nd cat, I checked out their cat supplies but didn't find anything that could withstand Butter's high energy, macho tendencies. He's quite friendly & isn't destructive towards our furniture, yet he's more rough on his toys. His l'il sis, Snow, rivals Butter's play enthusiasm since he joined the family, & ripped a modular track with ball within a couple of weeks. Though the cardboard scratchers are nice, I think sisal poles or boards may work better for both their personalities, especially since they influence each other's behaviors. I normally don't see any staff on the floor, but if you need help, you can always ask a cashier to page someone for assistance. If you're looking for an alternative to expensive retail home décor & furnishings, HomeGoods is the place to be for competitively priced "home goods" for your home.

I could not be happier with the results of the redesign of my house and the resulting remodel!…read more Everyone who comes over can't stop complimenting it, especially my friends that saw the "before." My house had a 80's interior that needed updating but the prospect of redoing the whole house was so intimidating I didn't know where to start. Victoria was fantastic in coming up with a design that worked with the space, and she walked me through picking design elements, finishes, and fixtures that would work together and have am inviting, beachy, cohesive look throughout the whole house! Victoria worked to figure out how I use the house and what changes would improve it for me. Victoria created a design that made the space much more welcoming, and suggested subtle changes to the floorplan that made the house more functional and gave it a much better flow. She made renderings and designs to visualize the result, and make sure the contractors understood the design and intent. She made a spreadsheet with alternatives for materials and appliances with costs that helped to plan the project going in, and helped me avoid going over budget on a down-to-the-studs remodel on the whole house. Victoria helped manage the project including working with the general contractor to make sure work was performed correctly and in accordance with the design. She helped find specific detail contractors, like a custom stair rail fabricator, to make sure the vision of the house became a reality. I couldn't recommend Victoria and Sound of Home more, because of Sound of Home my remodel was a success.

We had a big delivery to Nicholson Canyon and although the big trucks could not make it up the narrow steep hill she quickly made arrangements to have an outside vendor with smaller trucks do the delivery. I am so grateful for her service. In addition Victoria, Sales Manager is very knowledgeable on their outdoor furniture. She made my purchase of cushions for the 4 club chairs we bought at the recent sale very easy. Their outdoor furniture is definitely the best quality and their wholesale price and sales price is definitely competitive. I definitely recommend Teak Warehouse to anyone looking for luxury and quality for their outdoor space.

I recently had an unexpected and frustrating experience at Teak Warehouse that I think others…read moreshould be aware of. While the furniture is undeniably beautiful, the customer service was surprisingly poor. I purchased five items during their anniversary sale, where everything was sold "as is." After dealing with an overcharge on my credit card, I was told I'd receive a call the next day to schedule delivery, which I paid $99 for. That call never came until I followed up on social media three days later. It wasn't until August 27 that I finally heard from someone to schedule the delivery. On September 11, the delivery arrived, but one of the pieces was not what I had ordered. I immediately called customer service and sent photos of the correct item. They did offer to refund the incorrect item, but instead of taking ownership, they made it seem like they were doing me a favor. I also requested a refund of the $99 delivery fee, since the service I paid for (delivering the correct items) wasn't fulfilled. Later, I saw some internal emails by mistake, and it became clear they had no intention of refunding the delivery fee. The whole interaction left me feeling disappointed and puzzled as to why they wouldn't just refund such a small fee to keep a customer. Despite being excited about the furniture itself, this experience has soured me on purchasing from them again. My advice: take photos of everything you buy and be prepared for potential issues. If they're willing to lose a customer over $99, it raises concerns about their overall business practices.
