Macy's Backstage is basically Burlington Coat Factory. They sell the exact same merchandise, at the…read moreexact same cost. Also, Burlington Coat Factory, is almost at the same plaza as the mall, maybe a mile away. Here you can find kids clothes, toys, shoes, home items, kitchen gadgets, accessories, and more. Certain areas are very messy and cluttered, and other areas are much more organized. They also have a case where they keep some odd luxury items, like Gucci or Valentino, and other similar brands. If these items interest you, it may be worth going to Backstage for this reason, as they don't supply these items at Burlington. I'm usually only there because I'm waiting to see my Optician, who's office is just around the corner.

It was refreshing to shop at a small, locally owned business where I could touch and feel the clothing before purchasing. Many of the brands they carry are high-quality American or European brands, brands that you won't find at big box clothing stores. Susan, the owner, was very helpful and kind from the moment we walked in. She took a genuine interest in helping us find the right pieces and explained the materials the clothing was made of. I highly recommend this place!

There are so many beautiful and unique items in this store. They sell home decor items, dog items, toys and clothing for babies, women's clothing and jewelry, and seasonal items. There's a nice selection of West Hartford themed items, if you're visiting here, or if you'd like to get someone a gift from West Hartford, this is the place. I personally loved the variety of candles and each one is labeled with a specific West Hartford location. They way the store is decorated is so attention detailed and lovely. The employees are pleasant, always ready to answer questions and chat. They also offer gift wrapping on anything you purchase. I love stopping by this store. While the items are a bit more costly, they are supporting a wonderful cause, and they are not easy to come across in other places. I'd say treat your self or someone you know to a little gift from Good Cause Gifts, you'll be doing a good cause.
