We LOVE Beanstalk!!! We have had good luck with consignment there and the staff is very friendly!

I love shopping at consignment stores, especially for children — who wants to pay a ton of money for something the kiddos are going to outgrow in 6 months? Beanstalk is my favorite kid’s store in town, both as a shopper and a consignor. They have a great selection of cute clothes and gear, and the staff is really helpful and knowledgeable about the items in the store at any given moment. I’ve been able to call ahead a bunch of times when I needed something specific — snow boots for a trip up to Mt. Hood, for example — and they are always happy to hold things for me. I was getting a little sad because my girls are hitting the upper age range of the clothing selection at the Fremont store(my oldest is 7 ½) but happily Beanstalk opened a second store in Montavilla — even closer to my house — with clothes for older kids, too. Both stores are a lot of fun and definitely worth checking out.

I want to love this place but they make it impossible to consign. I have tried dropping off goods(7) times in the past 18 months without luck. If you are a busy working parent like me then consign elsewhere. There are only(3) days a month that I can go for drop-offs — the first three Saturdays of the month. Am I the only one with a million other commitments on Saturdays? It’s tough to coordinate the right season of clothes on top of the small window of drop-off times. The one time I was there on the right day of week, month and season, they were short staffed and overwhelmed and couldn’t take my stuff. I can’t win! Very frustrating.

Took my neice to a tattoo appointment on Fremont and we stumbled upon this little gem after parking in the Whole Foods parking lot. Lots of GREAT items, oh goodness, there was cuteness galore! Lots of selection, lots of shoes, clithes, swim gear, baby gear, toys, LOTS of stuff. For being such a small area, it is amazingly organized. Now, I gave a 4 star rating due to pricing. Yes, I scored a cute pop up play tent for $ 10, but $ 12-$ 14 bucks for kids shoes is too much for me. Even with their tag sale with discounts of 15%-30% that’s still a bit steep, even if the merchandise is in good condition. I more than likely will drop by and shop again though!

This is the only consistently well organized children’s resale store I have found in the Portland area. Good quality clothes, books, and toys, and there is a small play space in the back for your little one to keep themselves busy while you look around.

Love this store! I buy something almost every time I go in, which is often. They have high quality stuff and very reasonably priced! I’ve saved hundreds by shopping here and the staff friendly and knowledgeable.

This is my favorite baby resale store in town. They have a smaller selection than other stores, but make sure to provide great quality and good selection. The biggest reason I shop here is more because of their amazing customer service. Shoshana(probably spelled wrong) always remember me, my friend and our babies. She always has great suggestions of the things she knows I would love, but never in a pushy way. I hardly ever spend money on baby items. I really love digging in all the baskets and shelves for surprises. Their prices are fair and they have a private lot. Conveniently located In between Starbucks and Whole Foods. I buy gifts for other friends here and will continue to support this small locally owned business… that has fantastic taste.

I’m a new Beanstalker. I always find something when I am in there. Everyone is always so friendly, and kids seem to have fun in the store as well. Everything is adequately priced. Also from a consigners view, they are great as well. You will not be disappointed. :)

I was attempting to sell of some clothing that my daughter outgrew before she even got a chance to wear them. The clothing still had tags on them. Beanstalk is a nice store for mainly the infant to toddler crowd. There’s not a big selection for a six year old and slightly older. The catch is they sell for the next season. I brought in clothing for the summer and they are only taking back to school and fall clothing. Oh well, next time I will know.

New and great! Clean, shiny, fresh feel to a consignment shop, with a few carefully chosen locally made toys, like Green Blocks, refurbished hardwoods with a baby-safe finish. They take specific brands for clothes. They also have lots of extra gear, like portable sleep options, diapers, toys, books, and carriers. I was wondering when someone else would take advantage of Portland’s new baby boom.

I have never been able to go into this place because I am usually wandering to Whole Foods at 9pm or stopping by the ATM for some quick cash… but on Sunday, I noticed it was open and stopped in. [note: I’m NOT a mom… just an aunt.] I thought this place had some great clothes for fair prices… the shoes seemed a little beat up for the prices, and the puzzle/book selection was actually pretty awesome! I walked out with some almost-new Christmas gifts for my little nephew. Definitely worth checking out!

I wandered into this place when it first opened because it was conveniently located next to Whole Foods and I was expecting twins at the time. The signage was cute and the layout of the store was appealing. Now every time I go grocery shopping, I wind up in here and buying something cute for my little ones. I think the owner of the store is a woman I usually see ringing up my purchases. She’s incredibly friendly and I think has a good thing going. Quality consignment kids clothing and toys and equipment can be found here. Since I have two and kids grow out of things so quickly, it’s nice to have a place to get brands like BabyGap and Hanna Andersson without spending an arm and a leg. I’ve usually been able to find items for $ 3 – 7, including desses and sweaters, that are hardly worn. I haven’t signed up to be a consigner yet but I will soon as my kids begin to grow out of their clothes and toys and gear. Great family owned business!

Carmen is opening this children’s and maternity resale shop on the corner of NE Fremont and 15th in the Spring of 2012!!! She has taken care of several people in my life as a health advocate and naturopath, and is now shifting her focus to supporting families through her store. Her items will be high quality and affordable, allowing us to have what we need but not break the bank. Personally, I can’t wait to become a regular seller and shopper at this store!
