I buy a lot of bulk items for meal prep- things like oats, flour, beans, rice, vegetables, etc. The prices here are awesome; in store, you'll pay about $2 a pound for oats (store brand) but here it's $1 for Bob's Red Mill organic oats. Same deal for other dry shelf goods- as someone getting into cheaper meal prepping, this really is the place to go for such deals. The store itself is very basic- concrete floors, high shelving, barebones customer service. It is meant for business customers but I come here for my house- they also carry industrial/commercial strength cleaners, kitchen equipment and janitorial supplies. They don't carry electronics, entertainment, prepackaged meals, clothing or anything else of that sort. I don't mind though- I just go elsewhere for those types of items. Depending on what you value, I'd say it is definitely worth coming to this store either as a business owner or individual.

Great store for those who like wholesale items. Id rather shop here than Costco for food items.read more

This review is specifically on the Costco food court at the wilsonville Costco…read more I'm a big fan of the Costco food court system. Grab a pizza for dinner after you do all your shopping. This is the first really bad experience I've had with a Costco food court and this is not my normal Costco. I called ahead and pre-ordered my pizza. When I paid for my pizza. I also ordered two mocha freezes and a strawberry frozen yogurt. The food court staff did not put the lid on the mocha freeze and for whatever reason thought this was a coyote ugly experience and slid the mocha freeze across the counter with such Force. It went right off the counter and all over myself and my son. Wall covered in sticky sugar, the food court staff just stood there watching us. A random 7-year-old had to go and get paper towels so I could try to not track mocha freeze all over. The food court staff immediately asked if I would want them to remake the one they threw at me. I was beyond confused and told them I have to go to the bathroom to wash out my shoes and pants now. As I was able to catch one of the mocha freezes. The food card staff told me they would put it in the refrigerator To which I'm thinking you will remake my order. When I come back. After trying to remove all of the mocha freeze in the bathroom, we came back and had to wait in line as they were very confused that we still wanted our order. They finally gave us our pizza which they made wrong and told us we would have to go to the end of the queue if we wanted to get the pizza we ordered. A. At which point a manager was called over to try to assist in the situation. She told me she would watch the video feed later and wanted to know what she could do to help. I said I would like my food but since it's not ready I would like a refund. She then said she would give us a gift card but that would take too much time and the next time we come to just ask for her? Everything about the situation was weird. She then tried to get a refund on my $17 order but was unable to. Eventually she handed me $10 cash to try to fix this mistake. I was still covered in mocha freeze. The order was wrong. And I will not be getting food from this Costco food court again.

Also, you can only take a right turn out of the parking lot towards 217, so you might want to drive through the strip mall parking lot if you need to go East.

I will say that it can be a bit more spendy than ordering direct from a vendor, however, if you need something right away, it's not so bad! And some of the items are truly a good deal. I stopped in here to pick up coffee bar type items. They had everything I was looking for: stainless steel milk froth pitchers, espresso shot cup, syrup pumps, and the LARGEST, most extensive coffee syrup selection I have ever seen. This spot is definitely worth checking out and the staff are super cool too.

We ordered 9 doors through them. Including 3 exterior doors. One of which was a double door. We…read moreordered the doors through Jerry's home improvement. We paid extra such that all the doors were pre-hung. We were told the double doors would be hung on-site but shipped separately due to weight. Upon install it was obvious there were not pre-hung. No one had even provided the countersunk portions for the hinges in the frame. No holes had been made for the hinges either. In addition to that, the frame was 3/4" too tall, and the doors were 3.5" too short. So it was blatantly obvious that they were never hung on-site since there was a 3" gap at the bottom. We immediately alerted Jerry's. After 5 weeks of Jerry's and OREPAC doing nothing, they eventually sent someone out to measure. Who agreed something had been majorly screwed up. None of the hinges were even put on the doors at standard heights. The OREPAC rep was supposed to get ahold of us on Monday to tell us what the plan was. Both on getting us replacement doors and providing us a weatherproof solution for the opening so that we wouldn't have to delay our move-in. (Which wouldn't have been necessary if they had taken action immediately and not wasted 5 weeks). It's now Thursday and we've been calling the OREPAC rep all week as he hasn't gotten back to us. Jerry's as well as my wife and I have called him a total of 6 times today alone and gotten no response. Meanwhile first thing tomorrow we're planning on canceling our movers scheduled for next week as we don't have even a temporary weatherproof solution that they said they would provide. So far our costs are: $1,000 in extra mounting fees since the doors weren't pre-hung. $600+ in extra storage fees. + I have no idea what the mover's cancelation fee is going to be yet. You'd think OREPAC would care about their customer as well minimizing our financial damage. But it's clear they don't care. UPDATE: The OREPAC rep finally called us back today (Friday & 5-days late) and said they would get temporary doors out to us today. Let's see if they follow through. Personally I think it's pretty awful that it took me writing this review to get them to return our plethora of calls. However, this is still a step ahead of Jerry's who still isn't prioritizing this issue.

In about 20 minutes it was all done, his price was very reasonable, and I wished I had more to shred so I could talk with him longer. I live an hour drive from Steve's place, so I scheduled another appointment in Portland the same day to make the trip worth it. No need for that, Steve is worth a special trip any time. Surprise Bonus: There's a dog training and boarding company in the same building. I got to meet that business owner and pet a couple of doggies. What a great day!

A seat broke and they want me to pay almost 2k to ship it to Maui. A recall came in and because there is no dealer on island they won't do anything about. My steering system completely came off its assembly while on the ocean, my ballast tanks are not working, they first told me to remove the ballast module and send it over and they would send me a replacement. Well now I just got a txt from them saying that they cannot longer comunícate with me and that I have to do it all Troy Yamaha corporate. The funny thing is Yamaha says all warranty claims need to be handled trough the dealer. So it looks like Yamaha and Rivercity clearly spoke and said to each other "let's screw this guy, we already got his money, let us handle him we are a big corporate company and have in house lawyers". Stay out from this dealer they don't care about nothing else than making a sale and taking your money, and as much as Yamaha use to be a reliabale company, we'll after COVID they no longer, their quality control went down big time and they hide behind warranty and lawyers to don't respond for their products. STAY AWAY or found it by yourself. Hopefully my experience will help others don't be at the same or similar situation

Between the distance, white noise and a slight language barrier, we weren't sure why we were being yelled at. Eventually the woman at the register clarified what we needed: one Maine lobster. How many lbs? We said two. The woman who had shouted at us confirmed our order from her co-worker, and returned with two, 2-lb Maine lobsters: a slight miscommunication. She reached into the bag, grabbed the luckier of the two, and put him back in the tank. The less fortunate one returned home with us, to satisfy my wife's pregnancy cravings!
