Pretty basic home electronics/furniture store…read more I bought my TV here, they delivered it and offered to set it up. No issues. The problem is you need a CPF to buy anything here. Tried to buy an iron when I arrived and they wouldn't sell it to me. Yes an iron. But if you have one, this place is legit. Ask them if they have any discounts if you pay "a vista" - they almost always do.

Lojas Americanas is a quintessential store for home supplies. It has everything you need from…read morebathroom cleaners to electric domestics, kitchen supplies to snacks, clothes, beach chairs, Kids toys, electronics, you name it. What a great new location, since the other Leblon one is close to the mall but not close to the beach. It's shiny and new, so obviously the best looking Lojas I've visited. It's two stories, with the electronics in the front and kitchen supplies and kids stuff downstairs. It hasn't been crowded as the other stores, probably because they just opened their doors a few days ago. But so far, the customer service has been far better than the other stores. Lots of the workers in the other Lojas branches are painstakingly slow but this one the wait isn't nearly as long and they're polite. Hope this place stays nice!

They carry lots of large sizes we couldn't find elsewhere. They have 2 huge walls of the notorious flip flops! The staff is very helpful and nice, especially if your Portuguese is lacking like mine. The nice thing is you can loop around and walk along the beach at Copacabana through to Ipanema at Aproador. The quality is pretty standard, no Nike jerseys, but it's also nowhere near as pricey!
