Daiso - Japanese Household Goods — Attraction in Edgewater

When visiting Japan, I came upon a fun store, Daiso, where music was played and many items were quite inexpensive.

Great for fun souvenirs, I thought. The Japanese Dollar store chain, Daiso, and back then, I had wished there had been in NJ. I was quite excited when I found two Daiso stores in NJ this year!

Daiso is a Japanese inexpensive variety store that has some pretty good quality items, such as houseware, kitchenware, cosmetics, adorable stationery for those who love to do journals, toys, and many interesting Japanese snacks perfect for yourself or to share. If you enjoy or need help organizing your desk or closets, you will find many organizers to keep your house out of chaos.

Quite recently, I was speaking to a wonderful lady who wanted to acquire some ramen bowls. I had rattled off some stores for her to visit but then remembered Daiso carries some nice porcelain dishware. I had visited Daiso in the Edgewater, NJ location and found their selection not as vast as this location. I found an entire section dedicated to dishware where you can purchase beautiful ramen bowls, sake cups, and many other items that can be purchased and not break your wallet. I just could not resist so l purchased some, myself. Upon purchasing my dishware, the cashier was nice enough to not only wrap each dishware separately, but she also used tape to ensure it does not unravel during my trip home. I found the entire store clean, calm, and filled with so many beautiful items, I am going to be stopping by more often when I am in the area. This store is found in the same complex as H-Mart. Parking is easy since it’s in a...

I've been a fan of Dasio's innovative products and stylish accessories for a while now. Their designs are on-point, and the quality is consistently top-notch. However, my recent experience with their customer service left a sour taste.

Unfortunately, the Gen Z staff at the store seemed disinterested and unhelpful. When I needed assistance, they were too busy chatting with each other, seemingly oblivious to customers. It felt like I was interrupting their social hour.

I asked a simple question about a product, and the response was curt and uninformative. No effort was made to assist or resolve my query. It was clear they'd rather hang out with each other than help customers.

It's a shame, because Dasio's products deserve better representation. If they could improve their customer service, I'd gladly give them 5 stars.

Pros:

Amazing products and accessories Great designs and quality

Cons:

Poor customer service Disinterested staff Staff prioritize socializing...

I visit this store often and like some of the products and the low prices. Today I encountered a very rude and nasty manager named Alaf (not sure of the spelling). I know you open at 10:00 AM on Sundays: there door was open so I assumed it was already ten o'clock so I went in. I hear this woman yelling Miss, Miss we're not open yet! I responded by say "Calm down, you do not need to be so rude. She responded with a very ill-mannered tone in her voice and loudly "I'm just saying". I am reaching out to the owners and would like an apology because this is not the way to treat regular customers! I feel you should speak with this employee and explained to her how customers should be treated and respected and without customers you will have no store or employees. She needs to be retrained on how to approach people. Alaf still works there and is still...
