Kitchenware, linens, decorative pillows, fabric, dresses, and other clothing items--I was so excited to be here I was practically running in place! The two women working there were an absolute delight--friendly, enthusiastic about Marimekko, and as helpful as could be. I bought a dress, some throw pillows, and some mugs and dishes. Excellent quality items, and they were discounted at different rates, I believe between 15%-50%. I absolutely love this place and can't wait to go back.

But much of their clothing transitions well through the years so it is nice to be able to purchase the clothes at a discount. This is not "fast fashion." And it is especially nice when they are having a sale and you get an additional 20% off the already reduced prices! Staff are always welcoming, friendly, down to earth, and helpful. The transfer of manufacturing from NYC to China is the only thing that stands in the way of that fifth star.

I purchased my first ever Eileen Fisher sweater here last week and couldn't have been more pleased…read morewith the experience. The item itself is a soft, cream, thick turtleneck sweater from their Renew collection, where the company buys back vintage Eileen Fisher pieces then mends, refreshes, and resells them. It's a sustainable and wise approach to retail and a testament to the timeless and well-made quality of their pieces. The store was easy to navigate and the saleswomen were a delight. They made me feel like I was chatting with my longtime girlfriends. As a longtime admirer of the Eileen Fisher brand and company itself, I am happy to say my inaugural shopping experience there in Vermont was everything I'd hoped and more.

Stopped in with my girlfriend. They had a lot of great deals. Staff were friendly and helpful.read more

A Hidden Gem for Men's Fashion Too!…read more My wife and I stopped into the Theory store today (Thursday, May 15th around 3:30 PM), expecting just to browse for her. What a pleasant surprise -- not only did she find beautiful pieces, but I also discovered that Theory carries men's clothing! I honestly had no idea, and I've been missing out. A huge thank you to the two wonderful women who helped us today. They were warm, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive -- striking that perfect balance of being helpful without hovering. They made the whole experience smooth, enjoyable, and even fun. Their sense of style and eye for fit was spot-on, and I walked out with pieces I genuinely love and feel great in. To the owners and management: you should absolutely advertise that you sell men's clothing! The quality, style, and service are top-notch -- but most guys (like me) just don't know it's there. A little visibility could go a long way. We'll definitely be back & Thank you again!

I am not paying high prices for stale, old products from a store that offloads their old products on customers and then refuses to take it back and return your money. That is the end of me purchasing from Vermont Country Store!

Our group of six came through Manchester about a month ago and parked in front of this store in…read morehopes of finding an area with pretty leaves to take photos of, but we saw a huge sign in front of the store that said 50% off, so we went in instead. We walked around the store on our own, and while 1-2 employees were working with the merchandise, no one greeted us like how employees normally do in outlets - eye contact, ask if we were looking for something, tell us about ongoing sales - which I thought was a little strange (next door at the Armani store, we were greeted with enthusiasm the moment we walked in... and we don't look like we could afford Armani!) There were no other customers in the store, and we were a group of six walking in. I've worked in retail for many years. No customers, no sale. Plus greeting customers is also a method of thwarting thievery because they know they've been acknowledged. My husband found something he really wanted, and there was a sign that stated 50% off, so we headed towards the register. I may have said something like "50% off?," she looked at the jacket, and said, "I don't think so. Nothing in the store is on sale." - This is an outlet store - There is a huge poster that covers an entire window outside that says, "everything 50% off" or something of that sort - There are signs on top of multiple racks stating 30% off, 50% off, etc. And you're telling us nothing is on sale?! Our friend walked by and showed her signs that stated percentages off. Meanwhile, she rings us up and the register automatically took off 50%, and she acted surprised. Were they having a bad day? Were they racist? Were they waiting for the tourist season to be over with (I mean again we were the only people there in the middle of the day, and it didn't look like others were coming into town)? If my husband didn't find that perfect jacket, we would have all walked out. Even a month later, this incident has been brought up several times on why it happened. I won't speculate but am just presenting the facts. On the positive side, this store has quite a bit of inventory, the prices are pretty good, and you are left alone to browse.
