Pottery Barn Outlet

This place is super hit or miss - sometimes there is a ton of stuff in great shape. Other times it’s just all trash with tons of damage. IF they have something you want or need, the savings are amazing. The staff does a decent job helping you out. If you need some things but not on a specific timeline, this is a good place to become acquainted with.

Very helpful & friendly staff. Large variety of stuff and layouts are easy to navigate. Plentiful parking & easy pickup/loading process. I was looking for West Elm pieces and found a few things I really wanted!

Huge warehouse full of everything. They have tons of couches, dressers, mirrors, holiday stuff, etc. Most things will be 20%-70% off. Which is such a good deal from Pottery Barn/West Elm. Everything is so nicely organized. Makes it really easy to look for something that you’re looking for. Definitely a great place to look for furniture.

Big warehouse with a variety of items. We went here looking for couches but it’s hit or miss. Prices are still a bit high considering it’s an item they’re trying to get rid of. Some couches are stained and dirty but a lot are in great condition. Some cushions are more compressed or flat than others so be diligent when looking for items to purchase.

This is a great source of inspiration for home design mavens who are on a budget, or those enjoy the thrill of hunting a bargain. There were a large amount of decorative objects that were new in box, or pieces just barely imperfect. Not a lot in the way of glassware or dinnerware at the time I went, which was only a mild disappointment.

What I really came to look for was larger furniture pieces, and this is really where the mixed results comes in. There were a lot of smaller pieces that were in good shape, even a few shelving units of discontinued styles. Many of the sofas were in reasonable good shape as well. The majority of the larger dressers and chests (which is what I came for) were in pretty rough shape. Now I know that some people are willing to sand and refinish pieces to get what they want, but these prices were too high even for that. $900 for a deeply gouged dresser, $750 for a buffet with a smashed up side and bent legs, and $500 for a bar chest with door that would have to be completely replaced.

In all, while there were a lot of great things to see, this is really an outlet for decor items, and the furniture is really almost entirely scratch-and-dent pieces. I share this not to discredit or defame the company, but to help others set their expectations of what they will find when they arrive.
