My wife and I were looking to get a dining room set. We couldn't find anything we liked anywhere we…read morelooked. My wife mentioned stopping in at the Ellenton Store, since we live nearby. We were greeted by Jeffrey Slaton, and informed him what we were looking for, and what our size limitations were. He directed us to several different sets, and we had decided on one particular set. Jeffrey then went to check to see if it was in stock, with my wife in tow. While they were busy doing that, I continued to look around, and spotted a set we hadn't seen before. I sat at it, and thought it would be the perfect set for our dining area. When he and my wife came back to find me, I suggested it to my wife, and she agreed it would suit our home dining space. We also purchased a bench to go with the dining set, and a desk. Jeffrey was very courteous, very accommodating, answered all our questions, and most of all, didn't pressure us into making a decision. We would definitely shop at The Furniture Warehouse in Ellenton again, if we have any future furniture needs. They have a great selection at many different price points.

First, be skeptical of all 5-star reviews. They give $25 gift certificates to people who place…read more5-star reviews. We really like the salesperson who waited on us. We were buying two $900/each recliners then were told it would be $149 for delivery. To soften the blow he said that would cover all purchases for a year. We then decided to also purchase a chair and a couch. Well, they added on another $50 delivery. What? He had just said it would cover all orders for 12 months. Nope. The couch was a floor model so it adds on another $50. One of the back corners had the back loose for the about 10 inches towards the top. The salesperson said he would have someone there staple it back. When we received the couch, the upper portion of the back had indeed been restapled. However, the rest of that corner below that was flopping open. Someone who said she was in charge of the repair dept. at corporate called and said that they would do nothing to correct it. She said that it was a floor model, therefore we had implicitly accepted any and all damage. That seems like a pretty nasty response. Doubly so since it was NOT damaged like that when we bought it.

I was given two gift certificates for this shop. I had never been here before, but I had a great…read moreexperience! There is so much good stuff packed into this small little shop; it was a really fun browsing and each pass I saw something I hadn't seen the last time around. Monica was amazing at asking questions about my style and helping direct me to a section that might fit my style the best (and it did!). As more of a minimalist, I wasn't sure if I would find anything, but I did! I found a beautiful wooden tray, a faux orchid, decorative draping succulents, and a beautiful light pink satin top. The staff were always staying near by to help me grab something I liked that was up high or grab something from the back for me, and answer any questions so I didn't have to walk all the way to the front of the store to ask for help. They would offer to hold things for me if I ever found something I was considering so I didn't have to hold it while browsing (very helpful since my tray and orchid were both a handful). It helped me keep my hands free to continue looking. I definitely recommend this store for anyone who isn't sure what to buy someone as a gift, or if you know someone who is incredibly picky like myself, a gift card to this shop is definitely a great choice! I had such a great time browsing for something I loved.

Earthbox is a garden center in Ellenton, Fl. off US-301 at 36th Street. The parking area is small…read morebut enough space for us during the week. I'm not sure how it would be on a weekend. Earthbox was developed by commercial farmers to make it easy for home gardeners. It is a type of growing system with self-watering containers that have a water reservoir built in that is capable of irrigating the plants for several days. The system says it doubles the yield, reduces water usage by 60% and uses 28% less fertilizer. I like that the box itself is made of recycled plastic and can be used year after year! The people working there are helpful and knowledgeable. I didn't know the tomatoes they had so someone helped me pick two. I also picked strawberry and broccoli plugs (already started small plant). They have classes on Wednesday and Saturday at 10am to explain the system and answer questions. I will definitely be back and recommend Earthbox Garden. I don't use the Earthbox system though will be looking into it. And this is the place to find out about it!

She started explaining planting techniques I've literally known since I'm 4 yo. Also, first time anyone ever pushed soil purchase there. (Of course I was never asked if I was unhappy with my soil or whether I have problem growing.) It felt condescending and wasted my time. I was the only customer there. New Management?
