Interior designer and long time customer of Arhaus and was so excited to hear that one opened down the street from me! Unfortunately my experience in store wasn’t a great one. I don’t experience rac*sm ever, but it was blatantly clear that this was happening as I was the only person of color in a room with another 5 customers in store that were white and everyone else was being assisted. I was shopping around for about 30 minutes before someone greeted me as they were on their way to the bathroom. Towards the end, my husband and I (and my two toddlers in their stroller) and one other woman were the only ones in the store. we were lingering around waiting for someone to help us purchase a set of dining chairs but instead they were all talking amongst each other and never bothered checking on us. there was a man working around 12pm today that I tried making eye contact with to see if he would assist us and he acted as if we didn’t exist.

I could have saved some time by trusting their expertise from the start 😊! I deeply appreciate their support throughout the entire process. I can't wait to receive my...
Read moreWe were so excited to get a new home store in Los Gatos. It took over a few stores from before. My husband and I went in with our baby after a date night and we were so impressed. Beautiful displays and so nicely furnished. It’s disappointing to read the previous person’s review. I’m Hispanic, though I look more white, and I was asked a few times if I needed help. It was easy to reach out to the people at the front desk to ask for assistance. It wasn’t too crowded both times we went, and the staff was very friendly both times. I just gave them a call about a fiddle tree and the guy was very helpful to find the sku and give assistance. We’ll definitely be coming in more to...
