We approached an employee and found him (Gary) to be very helpful and knowledgeable regarding the questions we had for our needs. We decided on a tankless version. Gary made sure we had all of the information needed to make the transition from a traditional water heater to the tankless. We truly appreciated his efforts, as it made the whole experience a little easier.

The spacious parking lot made the whole visit easier. Pricing is competitive. They are open both early and late, making them a definite option when in need.

They had multiple options for every home need that we came for, and we were especially pleased with their garden section.

Such a great cause, and in the past this was a delightful way to celebrate Christmas…read more I drove through Waterworks Park for three many years this event was held there, and then attended when it was at the Adventureland Campground. The organizers did a great job at adapting to both locations. The music was wonderful and the displays were fun and festive. The move to the Outlet Mall just didn't work for us. We attended the Sip and Shop and gladly donated $50, but the experience was underwhelming. The Sip and Shop was a number of local crafters and a 'bar' that had a few cheap wines, a handful of beer selections, and a few spiked drinks. They had 2 people manning it, and the line was consistently 20-40 people deep. The bigger light displays are around the outside of the mall, and the walking section of the mall has been decorated, but it was much more commercial, and not the Holiday ambiance of past years. They sanding their news release that they were moving to a more immersive experience as this was what attendees wanted. I wish them the best, and I'm glad to send a donation, but the move to the mall just didn't work for me.

Fourth year in a row and we still enjoy it as a family! We've attended this even 10 years ago and…read moreit has really grown. I don't know much about Make a Wish Foundation but we like giving to their cause. During COVID19 review: Employees were all masked who had to take payments. Everyone is in cars so there really doesn't need social distant measures needed. This year was just as busy as any other year. PRO TIP: GO AT OPENING in a weekday to beat the traffic and crowds. 5:30 pm I believe when they open. There are no lines and it makes it way more enjoyable. Jolly Holiday Lights have been around for many many years, so they know how to manage their traffic flow. I appreciate that. I don't want to be stuck in long lines with so many little kids in the car. I noticed there are bathroom pit stops along the way of the lights!!! Very nice and convenient. I highly recommend as a family fun winter activity. I would not be attending any other light show but this one.

AVOID! I wish I had never purchased from A Trash Panda's Retro Boutique…read more I purchased a Hollywood Regency vintage coffee table from this seller in March. Only the bottom half was delivered, very poorly packaged, on April 15. It was described as being "in near perfect Vintage Condition with no chips or cracks" by the seller, Trash Panda. The description continued "This vintage item has no defects, but it may show slight traces of use." This transaction began the worst experience I have ever had buying on Ebay or any other retail platform. After weeks had passed, I received only the bottom half of the coffee table -- but not the glass top. A series of calls and subsequent investigation by Fedex revealed that the seller had shipped two packages with no signature required. After 45 days of emails and calls to locate the glass top, two things became clear: First, that the glass top would never be delivered and two, that we were not going to receive any compensation from the seller. It has never been clear if this seller, Trash Panda, even insured the package, or received any compensation. Further, the actually table construction is anything but in "near perfect condition." There were four leaves broken off from the table, which is listed as brass but appears to be gold paint over aluminum. The owner of Trash Panda wrote to us that she would send the leaves to us in a separate package, but they never arrived. A transaction for $750 became more than $1,000 with shipping, to obtain a damaged coffee table that was misrepresented and for which now, there is no glass top and no compensation or way of redressing the matter. The table that arrived is broken, with leaves missing, and does not reflect the picture that was shown when I purchased the table. Sixty days after the purchase -- including dozens of calls and emails with the seller and Fedex -- I regret the day I decided to search for a coffee table on Ebay. The seller no longer answers email or Ebay mail requests.

The Container Store sure lives up to its name! Offering a vast array of storage and organizational…read moresolutions that cater to every nook and cranny of your home or office... Whether you're decluttering your pantry, revamping your closet, or finding clever ways to organize your craft supplies, you're likely to find what you need and more. Exceptional selection, helpful and friendly staff, and well-organized and inspiring displays. A mecca for organization, but be mindful of the pricing... The Container Store is a fantastic resource for anyone serious about organizing their space. The selection is unparalleled and the staff is generally helpful. The store itself is a pleasure to browse. However, be prepared for potentially higher prices compared to other big box stores. Have a plan in mind before walking in...to avoid possibly feeling overwhelmed by the abundance of choices! Be sure to ask about their rewards program to save on future purchases!

I walked into my first Container Store years ago in the Houston Galleria area. I lived near the…read moreWalnut Creek branch for years, and since then I find an occasional urban area (like West Des Moines) that has one. I'm naturally attracted to merchandise that can be used to store stuff. At the same time, Gayle would advise that I buy less "stuff", thus minimizing any further container purchases. So here I was in West Des Moines, primarily to look for luggage at REI. And much to my pleasant surprise was this Container Store, just an easy stroll away. I wandered around for a while imagining the possibilities. I ended up with some hangers (which for some reason we always need) and a couple cool storage boxes. Sorry Gayle. :)
