Some people are brand driven and iittala is a brand that has been around for a long time. Known for…read moreits glass cups, bowls, plates, vases, birds, unique designs and decorative kitchen ware this is a one stop shop for home & kitchen stuff. For a decade I have been visiting this location, slowly acquiring birds. When trying to decide which bird to purchase an associate pulled out several from the case and several not on display. This was very kind and tempting! Value is what you make it. This store also carries full line of Fiskars products. New for me was the cast iron cookware. We enjoyed our visit very much.

Not really an outlet when you expect discounted prices. Visited in Sept. 2021, and did not offer…read moremajor discounts, with the exception of a few defective items. Most prices are the same across all Ittala and Fiskars shops across the country. Not worth the visit.

Prior to our Nordic countries visit I had never heard of Moomin…read more Moomin is a comic strip character created by Tove Jansson in the 1940's which then was reinvigorated by a tv show in the 90's. This store entirely consists of Moomin merch for those who are Moomin fans. While not up to the level of the Sanrio stores in Japan, most of the merch was cute but leaned a bit too heavily on the "must also be useful" side - think cups (so many cups), plates, wallets, bags, and coasters. All in all, if you're a fan you should definitely drop in, but there's also a location in the Helsinki airport that is slightly nicer in my opinion, so I don't know there's a need to visit this shop unless you're already in the area.

This is a cute Moomin Shop in the Helsinki Airport! It's quite large and has a lot of stuff from…read morekeychains to plates to pet bowls to pot holders and more. There were even some stuff for sale as well! My friend got this really cute cutting board for about 13 euros which I thought was rather decent. I ended up buying this cute Moomin charm for 4 Euros since I love enamel charms! They have a stamp rally where if you take their stamp card and visit another Moomin Shop you can get something. I actually visited the Esplanade one a few days ago which is too bad since I would have been able to get whatever their gift was!

I bought the Oiva / Unikko bowl in November 2025. I used it with care. It already broken. Their…read morequality in ceramic is so poor. It is not worth it. Don't buy it anymore.

Three years later I'm finally back and so looking forward to visiting the Marimekko factory outlet!…read moreSo. very. disappointed. The store area is about 1/3 the size from when I first visited, the selection very limited and so are the sizes. Not to mention the prices are much higher, only 30% off the regular prices in general. Half the shop is now designated to the current collection, ie no reduced prices at all and the same clothes and accessories you'll find in the regular shops in Helsinki. When we visit the outlet store certainly has more staff than customers and there is a certain feel of desolation in the air. I may have bought something, but not at all for the prices I had expected. It feels awful to bump down the 5 star rating to 2 star, but apparently, what a difference 3 years make...
