Pier 1 Imports

Yes sometimes they appear to be understaffed and I’ve wondered where someone was to pay for items, but that’s not the fault of the people working there. They are friendly and helpful when they are free to help you. Dennica (sp) was especially wonderful. Great experience.

I come here because it is close to where I live but I wish it was another home store. My main quarrel with this store is the costumer service is awful. I walked in the other day to buy something and nobody said hello, I picked out my items and went to the register and nobody came. A few minutes after standing at the register, I just left my items at the counter and walked out. This is not the first time this has happened either.
They also do not carry a lot of common household items you would expect, such as silverware. They have a huge candle and fragrance section but no incense.

In my opinion this store is a little too expensive, but they do have cute throw pillows and kitchen accessories. I like to go here to get ideas and then see if I can duplicate the same look at home goods… lol. I did notice quite a few items that I liked on clearance there, but the clearance price only brought the price down to what it should’ve been in the first place.
My friend just bought a condo so I’m sure there will be plenty more visits here so I will splurge and buy something… I’m sort of a shopoholic :(

Friendly staff, good deals when its sale time.

Pier 1 met my needs.
I don’t know why anyone would use a review to help make their decision to patronize a major chain business. Seriously. For those of you who need extra information before going (or not) to this Pier 1, here’s my run down:
It’s very neat and orderly.
The sales associate was a bit TOO friendly and eager to help.
I was the only customer.
Maybe the sales associate was bored.
But then it got a little weird.
I purchased my items and the sales associate carefully packaged the breakables.
I got home and examined my receipt and realized that my items must have been on sale because they rang up for lower prices than the stickers indicated.
I am pleased with my purchase and will probably return to Pier 1 when I have need to buy dishes, throw pillows, frames, candles, and other odds and ends.

I really like this Pier 1 store! It’s large, the staff is super friendly, and they’ve got a TON of cute stuff.

I have been shopping at Pier 1 since my college days when my funds were very limited. They always have really nice cultural furnishings and accessories that are good quality and affordable. After shopping here for over 20 years, I can still always find something to add to my home décor.

Pier 1 reminds me of 1989, Jacksonville, FL, shopping for funky 80s décor with my mom.
And that is a good thing. Who doesn’t want to be reminded of shopping with their mom for 80s décor?
Pier 1 sometimes still feels like 1989, but if you look closely, all the little gifty items are super cute. You can definitely find xmas gifts here. And it’s more fun and better priced than a lot of home stores (crate/​barrel, bed/​bath, pottery barn). The service at this location is beyond helpful and polite.
The small furniture pieces and chairs have a lot more personality than your standard sleek mod look. If I ever had a budget to fully decorate my bedroom or living room, I’d look here first!

this is an evil place.
I’m a sucker for cool home goods and anything with a red sticker on it. Hence Pier 1 is like, the worst and best place for me.
This store is good for little knick knacks, novelty gifts and for fun pieces to enhance your home. I think it’s cool if you wanna «funk» up an otherwise boring space. The quality is better than IKEA but not too expensive. And more contemporary and unique than Crate and Barrel …and I like IKEA and C&B.
Def go there.

I have been furniture shopping a lot in the past year looking for pieces for several rooms. Some of you may know how frustrating it can be shopping for furniture, if you are not a big fan of mid century design there are not that many options; it seems as if every higher end furniture store that is not a chain decided to go mid century. I decide to give good old Pier1 a chance. I pass by Pier 1 all of the time; it reminds me of being in graduate school trying to decorate my apartment. I decided to go to several Pier 1 locations. Only to be shocked that nothing has changed about the store since the ‘late 90s: The overwhelming surgery smell of the candles, rows and rows of candles, fake flowers, the clutter of random items. Going here now gives makes me kind of sad. Why has Pier 1 decided to be stuck in the late ‘90s? I don’t get it. It seems like I can go in a time machine go to the late 90’s and almost everything in the stores will be exactly the same.

I write this review strictly as a husband who accompanies his wife and has zero interest in anything Pier I sells. But… there is a very comfortable Ansel loveseat right inside the front door on the left, near the cash registers. This is where I sit and relax while the wife does her thing. The employees are always pleasant and I can play games on the iPod.

There is so much to review about this place and this particular location, however I am the biggest fan of their candles — the best candles by a long mile! A little expensive, but they last a long time! Also, right after the holidays I am here going through the hugely discounted ornaments and have now, finally, put together the most amazing and affordable Christmas ornament collection ever! The staff at this location is super friendly and nice.

I started my furniture shopping adventures at Pier 1 today… where I’ve had lots of luck in the past when moving. And today was no exception… they have some great classic furniture and incredible prices! They’ve moved on from their wicker furniture days (although still plenty of wicker for those wicker fans out there).
Great customer service and boy are they fast! I’ll probably be ordering a desk and nightstands that I saw there today. Unlike Roy’s furniture where I had to make sure to place an order today because it takes 6 – 8 weeks to come in I know I can call Pier 1 at the last minute and they’ll have it all to me within days.

I enjoy Pier 1 although their style definitely isn’t my style aside from a few things here or there. It’s still a good place to find something worthwhile, however. I tend to buy wine glasses, candles, vases, pillows, and place mats — all of which frequently changes in its variety. They have a really great holiday section (although I don’t like «holiday» smells) and every season they have a massive sale which cuts their prices down dramatically. Right before Christmas they were selling off all the Christmas stuff and my dad needed place mats. Target’s selection was horrible, so I suggested we go to Pier 1 (in San Diego, that is). We picked up these really nice double sided place mats for $ 3 each!
I like this location in particular because its not cramped as some smaller locations can be, and it’s right up the street from my house. :)

I’m a big fan of Pier 1– I really think they have some quality things. They have great candles, vases and great dishes and glasses. It’s a great place if you’re looking for a present for someone but aren’t sure what to get them. They have very decorative pillows and lots of serving pieces and decorative bowls that I usually give people as a housewarming present with some candles or potpourri for a nice smelling gift. I used to not like Pier 1 because it seemed that all they had was wicker furniture and those wicker round chairs that are so awful, but they seem to be moving away from that and are bringing in much nicer furniture and I feel like they are upping their quality too. If you haven’t been recently you should definitely go because they have some really nice things!

Just once I would love to walk into a Pier 1 and not be overwhelmed by sugary candles. With that in the air, it’s hard for you to see the gifts and home décor they have. I enjoy some of their items, but sometimes it is a little too wickery for me.

I love looking around this place even though I can’t afford most of it! If I could furnish and accesorize my apartment from here I definitely would. This location is enormous too, bring your car because you’ll want to buy a lot!
