Williams-Sonoma

It's a very well marketed store, but what about the prices?

I have been to many William-Sonoma stores and I have even purchased a few things from there, although I will proudly admit all the products I have purchased were on sale. I love and have Le Creuset products, cook books, Henckels knives and Calphalon cookware sets and a few more items. But I have purchased none of those from there (with the exception of Lidia's Family Table cook book, on sale for 14.99), I would have paid at least twice the amount that I actually did pay. Macys offers almost all of the above mentioned products for a fraction of the price. … read full review »

Even the Sale Prices are Pricey - Nice Kitchenware, Though

2008

I'm not much of a cook, so I don't tend to spend much time shopping for kitchenware. Even when I am in the market for bakery items and cookware, I usually only visit online retailers that offer great prices or deep discounts. Imagine my surprise when a search for a ceramic grease strainer brought me to Williams-Sonoma (Williams-sonoma.com) Williams Sonoma has a well-deserved reputation as being a provider of classic, functional products for serious cooks and bakers. The higher-than-average price tag on most of the inventory reflects the quality of the… read full review »

FlyLady

Cleaning overwhelmed me. She pointed me in the right direction

2008

I found FLYLady's website by happenstance and Divine Intervention. I knew HOW to clean, but never got into the habit of actually DOING it. My habits revolved around cleaning up a giant mess, being tired of cleaning that much, and leaving it for a while....only for the cycle to go around and around like that all the time. Most of us were taught to clean it right, clean it all, and clean it till it was done right and completely in the first go-round. That mentality simply does not work for everyone. Your mother's way and your grandmother's way of doing things is not your way of doing… read full review »

I ordered a garage fan from these people. I received a confirmation notice and number. After nearly two weeks of no merchandise or notice of shipment I called. I got someone in customer service who did not speak very good English who said there was no record of my confirmation number though it was charged to my credit card. He said just dispute it with my credit card company and rudely hung up on me. Incredibly poor customer service. … read full review »

I am in the process of trying to transfer to St. Louis with the VA. Since I am not there to find a house to rent I went online and found Rent Source. I talked with someone there and she stated that they had thousands of houses for rent and that I would need to sign up with a registration fee of $85.00. I specifically asked about pictures because I wanted to see what home I would be calling the landlord about and she replied that they had lots of them. Well, I signed up, paid my $85.00 and got a total of 2 houses and NO pictures. … read full review »
