Always fine something good here, well at least I do. From a nice dresser, a side table to dishes. I go to Habitat at least a few times a month and find something awesome..... Also a note if ya see something ya like, go with your gut and buy it cuz it won't be there the next day. The turn around here is crazy and things do not last long on the shelves. My most recent find a colorful and fun sake set! Do chips or blemishes, looks like it was never used. It made my day and the whole set was 20 bucks!!! read more

Habitat For Humanity ReStore - Got lamps - Community Service/Non-Profit Near Me - Watsonville, California

This store has come a long way! It's large and well organized. . in addition to up cycled building supplies, paint supplies, electrical, tools and plumbing. . There are now rooms for furniture, home goods, medicaI supplies, sporting goods, books, toys, clothing, records etc. I find myself being a "regular". I often check this store first before heading to big box store. I appreciate things get a new life and that the money goes to an affordable housing non-profit. It's not always the cheapest. But, it's never less than 50% off retail. As merchandise in the store "ages" they get cheaper. The yellow tags are half the sticker price. I find donations are easy here too. I like seeing my old tools and things for sale there. It's a kick. read more

The Watsonville Habitat Restore is so great! So glad they came to our community. Jorge helped me get a donation done right before they closed and he was a joy to work with! read more

I heard about this place from my uncle so I decided to go check it out so I went to go take a look and when I showed up, I looked at the sign where it said the store hours and it said 10 to 4 so I thought.., I saw the door open and thinking oh maybe the time is different today, so I walked in and started looking around and halfway through. I ran into an employee and he asked me are you a volunteer? I'm like no and then he looks at me all crazy and says well we're closed right now. I'm like oh OK and I told him I just walked in the front door because the door was wide open and the guy just kept on repeating himself and then he says oh my manager must've left the door open, and then I told the employee well you should tell your manager to lock the door behind him because I was the last person to walk out. I saw another person walk in before me. and then the employee tells me oh yeah, we're open at 10 and I felt like he just wanted to push me out the door say some stuff to me, but he look like he held back a little bit. I get it. I used to work retail. I don't know if I'll be going back the stuff was MEH and some of it was a little bit overpriced from what I saw, but yeah, I don't know what's wrong with these people nowadays and don't know how to communicate in customer service read more

Nicely organized in different rooms like kitchen ware and electronics. Really good selection of merchandise. If you're looking for antique furniture this is your place. Most prices are in line with thrift stores. Bonus- this store is located within a block the Goodwill easy walking distance. Glad that it has relocated to Watsonville. read more

My family & I have shopped at Habitat since they were located in Santa Cruz. They always have cool stuff & great deals. I went to browse around last week since I was in the Watsonville area. I was very disappointed to witness two of the so called managers Andrea & Xochitl. They were being so rude to a Hispanic couple that was trying to purchase some furniture. They stated the item was not for sale! Then why would they have it on the sales floor ?The couple walked away and left the store feeling embarrassed. Shortly after a Caucasian couple approached them about the same furniture that was not for sale & sold it to them. Unfortunately this is not the first time this has happened. My mom has also been discriminated against while shopping there. They assume my mom doesn't understand what they say. I honestly don't understand how these two ladies are in charge. The way they speak to some of the other employees is not acceptable. I hope someone can do something about these two & rethink who they want to have in charge. You will start loosing customers if you don't resolve this matter. I will have to make some phone calls to the higher ups to let them know about the problem. read more

It took me a while to get to this review (sorry ReStore). We were looking for chairs for an art installation, and worked with the manager. She was VERY helpful. We found exactly what we needed at the right price. If I remember correctly, we paid about $15.00 per chair. It's the cleanest ReStore that I've ever been in and absolutely the most organized. I will go back again, and again! read more

Habitat For Humanity ReStore - 8 chairs @$15.00 each - Community Service/Non-Profit Near Me - Watsonville, California

The staff at the Watsonville store is very poor. they are not friendly or welcoming and treat their customers with suspicion and act put out if you ask a question. while ringing up my item today the clerk did not greet me but continued to talking to another clerk, never made the contact or even acknowledged me. I have never been to a store where I was treated so rudely. I had chosen a small item with no price, so I inquired and was told it was $10, when I went to pay for it she rushed up and loudly and rudely announced to the other clerk that it was $10 as if I were going to lie about it. I will never go in there again. the manager needs to know how rude their clerks are. they get less than one star from me. read more

I thought that the prices were a bit high for the beat up furniture but at least the profits are going to a good cause. I was hoping fo r larger selection of furniture, desks, tables, etc that were from the last decade or two but most of the furniture was pre 2000. There was a decent selection of doors, some tools, and nicknacks. The staff was friendly. read more

Not what it used to be when it was located in a Santa Cruz. It's comparable to goodwill now.

Restore is a goodwill for everything but clothes and bathroom supplies. The furniture is nice, and the staff is sweet. They take donations of construction items like doors, sinks, ovens, etc. read more

Drove almost an hour to look for some furniture for our house (fire) rebuild. They had several items I was interested in buying, but unfortunately, they don't let customers use their restroom. I left my items and won't be back. read more

I love this place. Friendly helpful staff and they had the lightbulbs i've been looking for.

After visiting the Seaside Habitat Restore for the 1st time today, I decided that I had to comment on the Watsonville location. I drop by to cruz through the Main St. store as often as possible. The customer service in Watsonville is the best! Andrea, Xochi,& Alex are always so friendly and helpful. I am happy to be able to donate & shop at this great location! read more

the store is cool and it has decent stuff in it. but it is NOT a thrift store. some of the prices of things are higher than the item brand new. but the stuff is good quality so its hard to complain too much, even though they get it for free. The real problem for me is the customer service / lack of any that the staff seems to pride themselves on. I broke my finger there on some glass blocks that i had to load into a plastic shopping cart that would not support thier weight. And then I wentt back to get glass tiles . Those boxes are very heavy and not price marked . So i got the ol shopping cart and loaded one box out if the the two left into it . I pushed the card clear across store to get a price check. At the register. They told me 25 dollars. And I said ok and to charge me for 2 boxes i would pick up the other box on the way out since I had to go by it to my car. She said no i would have to bring the other box up . Meaning push the cart back to the tiles load the other bring it all the way back to the register to pay then push it all the way back passed where the were and out to my car. This place tales up three large buildings on main street in watsonville. It ravals a home depot / target size store. I tried to explain that they were very heavy but she was busy walking away from me. . So i left the tile an went home . I really wanted those over priced tiles too. So now we all lost out. It's a big waste of time that store. I would go to gray bears instead from now on. read more
