First off, I must give props to Steve for his well thought out responses to many of these entirely unreasonable reviews. Chill out, people!
I am a dedicated thrift store enthusiast, generally seeking home décor, dishes, books and clothing, which is not really what Restore is slinging. On my first visit I left empty handed, though I saw some interesting things, and figured someday I’d get to the nitty gritty of Restore. Well, we just moved to the area, and are doing a ton of work on our property. My husband mentioned he needed some doors for our greenhouse, and I recalled seeing some at Restore, so we ended up returning just a few days following! Yeah, that’s right, they have doors aplenty (like 50+), and that’s just the start.
We bought three doors (lol, so random), one of which is an antique farm door with a giant pane of perfect glass. Swoon! Next, doorknobs for $5 each and hinges for 50 cents each. My husband found several super specialty plumbing valves that retail for $250+ priced at $25 (seriously, I looked it up!). We also got a yellow fig for $5 ‘cause I needed a little fun!
An aside regarding the plants: they get extras from nurseries, but they also get many from a local guy who just loves to grow plants, and they are gorgeous and giant! My fig was over 2 feet tall, there were huge hot pink hydrangeas, passion flower, herbs, tomatoes, etc.
There is a variety of furniture, bits of flooring that would probably be enough for a bathroom remodel, toilets, sinks, light fixtures, paint, tools, hardware, etc. The store is large, easy to navigate and pretty organized, all things considered (it’s still a thrift store, though!). A lot of it is used, but there are brand new things, too.
Basically, if you are remodeling and not in search of a specific item/style/brand, Restore is the place. We are planning to build a tiny house in the future and Restore will be our go to spot. We’ll look here first, then buy what we can’t find elsewhere. The prices can’t be beat, there are some seriously unique finds, and every employee we’ve interacted with has been as...
   Read moreWe had never heard of this place, until a member of our congregation mentioned it. We were searching for something specific and spotted one of their stores. We were astonished by the selection and the prices, but didn't find what we needed. We did a search, found another one. No luck. On the third try, we found that perfect piece. What shocked us was it was only twenty dollars. Then we received a greater shock when they took off an additional twenty-five percent. Wow. We'll return to a ReStore when needing furniture. Great people, great prices, great cause. Couldn't...
