I just go in to see what is new on the market, there is always something on sale, not that I need it, but hard to resist. I have many a Paderno items.

And if you wait for the semi-annual sales held in Halifax Forum, you can get your cake and eat it too. But there are other brands in the store - KitchenAid, Cuisinart, Henckels knives and my personal favorite Le Creuset - a very high end, ie expensive brand of enamel cast iron cook and bakeware. True you can find some of these in many stores, and sometimes even cheaper than at Paderno. But nowhere will you find the selection. From gadgets to huge stockpots, from bamboo cutting boards to espresso machines...you have to come and see for yourself.

The young female who was holding a PINK PHONE pissed me off so bad. Never will I be back. And how am I supposed to pay at the cash when you have no one working there. F@#$ THAT!!!!!!!

Hello, I did…read morecurbside pick up today. I understand the current climate of the pandemic, but the employees of Linen Chest at Bayers Lake in Halifax NS can still be decent human beings. A pandemic is no excuse. I watched an older couple walk-out with a bag of items. So I automatically assumed, as there was no signage outside, it wouldn't be a big deal for me to walk in and pick up my order. First of all, I walked in and was NOT greeted. Instead, before I could walk pass the front mat. I heard," You gotta...."I could barely hear her, very muffled due to the mask she was wearing, hardly any eye contact, she pointed as if I had to wait in the entrance. So that's what I did. I waited for a few minutes to be asked, can I help you?, which never happened. Instead, I was ignored. I then said," Excuse me; I have an online order to pick up." Then the whole tone changed. I felt as if now, my presence was known, and I was no longer being ignored. She asked my name, and what it was I ordered, NOW I can hear her clearly because I already spent money I'm guessing. They put my four pillows on the counters. The other representative took the pillows and started walking towards me. I ask politely, " Do I take the pillows from you? "... Her reply was "Just open your trunk, so you don't get too close to me" that's fine, I respect that. But it's all in the tone. She put the pillows in my trunk, and walked away, before entering the store. She said," next time, just call the store." How about there will never be a next time, especially at that location. And have a nice day too... I've done multiple orders online to pick up in-store, from the grocery store, to home hardware, to furniture stores, and at Bed Bath And Beyond. NOTHING compares to the level of horrible service I've received today. I wonder if the couple before me and gentleman after received the same underwhelming level of customer service. If so, that's unfortunate. I was so distraught, I called my husband to cope with the anxiety that the whole situation created during my visit. Those two employees should be ashamed of their selves.

I have never had such a great shopping experience as I had during my first visit to the Linen…read moreChest. I had assumed by their name they were just sheets and towels, so I didn't bother stopping in until recently. But no, they are much, much more than just linens. First, you are offered a hot beverage when you enter. We were also offered ham panini bites. I had tea, and Mike had hot chocolate and panini. They use the products they sell (in this case coffee maker and panini maker), so it's rather like a demo as well. Cleo was super helpful and informative while serving us. The store is deceptively huge. It looks smaller outside than it really is. Also, they have everything. Dinnerware. Glasses. Home decor. Kitchen appliances. Bedding. Mattresses. Window coverings. Exclusive lines. More knick-knacks than you can shake a stick at. And almost everything was on sale the day of our visit. I swear we spent an hour wandering through each section. Eventually we bought some glasses and a lotion dispenser (hush, it's a cool dispenser). The prices were awesome. I can't wait to return. This is my new first stop for all things homey.

Yes the majority of the store focused on bathroom accessories, towels and shower curtains but as well they had bedroom duvet set, pictures everything. The Kitchen section was huge and great deals. Alot on sale and alot on clearance which was throughout the store randomly, it was great. I actually found those Yankee Car Sent things which are very hard to find and I got them three for $5.99. I really do like this store and can see myself going back for shower gifts or even presents for the girls as they have some really pretty things there. Picture frames are beautiful. It is hard to go into all these stores and not buy buy buy. Well I guess I need a house first that might be a start. Great Store!

If ever I fall into some terrible debt situation, it will not be because of the high price of…read moreeducation. No, it will be because I'm hopelessly addicted to home necessity stores like Bed Bath & Beyond. Like, seriously. I genuinely find it bewildering that the staff here don't instantly recognize me and let out a hushed, "Father's home..." as I walk in the door. I find myself in this store very often. Now, part of this is because I inherited a love for all things kitchen. Perhaps the greatest similarity between me and my mother is the fact that we both have an appliance or tool for pretty much any food thing you can think of. Need to crack and separate an egg at the same time, while keeping your hands clean? I've got you covered. Want to process a small amount of frozen banana slices to make ice cream? Use my mini food processor. (Use my regular food processor for larger batches.) Baking some cookies? Don't worry, I have enough Silpats for you to bake continuously for about five months. It should be obvious that a store like this is a clear danger to my bank account. Unfortunately, I have a car and no self-control. I should get to the actual review part of this: Come here if you're looking to get something for your home and don't mind paying a bit extra for it to not be Zellers quality. A dish rack at BBB, for example, can run between $18 and $80. (Which one do you think I own?) Come here if you're looking for some of the most random crap for your house that you had no idea was an absolute necessity. Like the cutting board that folds up a bit to make transferring chopped up veggies easier! Come here if you have some free time and love to fantasize about owning everything and how much better your life would be if you took the plunge and bought that $100 shower caddy. (THINK OF THE EXTRA SOAP SPACE!) Also, come here if you already went to Home Outfitters and they didn't have what you want. They're right across the street and you never know, right? Otherwise, just go to Wal-Mart or JYSK and be happy that you're saving a little bit of money. (Pro tip: Sign up for the newsletter and occasionally receive a coupon for 20% off one item.)

I understand that delays can happen, especially with large items. However, a one month change immediately after purchase feels misleading, particularly when the earlier date influenced my decision to buy over other retailers. I contacted customer service and the experience was disappointing. Rather than acknowledging the concern, the response focused entirely on the fact that the date was "estimated." There was no recognition of how a significant overnight change could feel misleading and impact a customer's expectations and experience, and no options were offered, such as a discount, delivery accommodation, or any form of goodwill. Their responses felt defensive rather than solution oriented. A simple acknowledgment of the situation would have gone a long way. Customers should be aware that estimated delivery dates shown at purchase may not reflect actual availability, and delays of up to a month are possible even immediately after ordering.
