Helpful to the 10th degree…read more Walked in with a list my husband sent me with and was guided and helped through the entire store. I also have the pleasure of being short, so the associate retrieved a shovel and clamps high up for me. Answered all my questions and set me up with my new favorite for life, garden hose. This has my business for life when I shop in the Knoxville area.

I stood there for 15 minutes and everyone had their own conversations. I was the only patron in the store I went and spent $2000 at the other lighting store on Kingston Pike.

Love this conveniently located Williams-Sonoma at the West Town Mall. My favorite items are their…read moreSmeg toasters, Jura coffee machines and their signature Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Also, when I went last weekend, they had their 50 % off clearance happening for all of the holiday items. On Sundays, enjoy a VIP experience with the experts, including tours, registry help, and complimentary demos. On January 21, they'll have a Ways to Vitamix presentation and how to make pizza dough happening at 11:00 am. And on the following Sunday (the 28th), they will be showing how to make decadent desserts with the Vitamix, including chocolate-avocado mousse and espresso frappes. Know before you go: Plenty of parking spots, so don't fret. Located on the ground level of the mall. On most Sundays, they do presentations at 11:00 am, and then the audience gets to sample whatever they make :)

Mike was super helpful when I visited on April 27th! I needed a cast iron dutch oven so I could…read morestart baking bread and he went through the different brands with me and was very knowledgeable. He also helped me by bringing down the different sizes so I could see them up close and hold them (I'm really short so there was no way I was going to be able to grab them off the shelves lol). In the end, I had to order one since they didn't have the color I wanted in stock, but other than that, I'm glad I went in. Very excited to get my Le Creuset in the next couple of weeks.
