I visited Lazy-boy Furniture at the end of a very long and painful day. The sales associate, was kind and patient. I tried many different recliners to find one that felt right. I eventually found one that I thought would work and purchased two of them. My previous experiences with Lazy-boy Furniture were not pleasant, but this one was. Yes, I would recommend them, but check around first. M. Stephen

This was my first visit to this store. The lady who helped me was very nice, even though arrived a few minutes before closing. I wasn't aware of the time. I was looking for paint colors and samples. I had almost 20 color samples at home and I still couldn't find what I was looking for. There was a dented can of paint I would have bought if they offered a discount. My experience was short and pleasant and I would go back. M. Stephen

I always like to go to Sunnyside Greenhouse and walk around. I've watched it grow from a little house at the beginning to the place it is today. Yes, my mother shops there too. I was looking at outdoor furniture but found it too pricey, although they did seem to have a reasonable selection. I was able to find some bird suet of various flavors that I've never seen at another store, so that was a real bonus. One of them even had bugs in it. That was sure a surprise. They sell a brand of cat food with interesting flavor choices too and I gave that a try. My cats loved most of them. Sunnyside is a nice and relaxing place to shop. M. Stephen

I went to Michael's Craft Store to buy craft/organizer shelves that they had on their website. When I saw the quality and price of the units, I changed my mind and shopped elsewhere. I did buy some art canvas boards though. The staff, when you can find them, are usually pleasant, but they don't seem to be very knowledgeable about their store or supplies. Further training would be a great idea. It would also be nice if they acknowledged you when you walked in the door. Even if they are serving another customer, a nice "Hi, Welcome to Michael's" would be a good beginning. The only stores I know that say "Hi" to everyone when they enter their store is Urban Barn and 7-11. That's my favorite thing about those stores, they acknowledge your presence from the very beginning. Michael's is a good store for most art supplies. M. Stephen

What a company! My neighbor contacted them about a cleaning deal for the apartment block. If she could get so many to have the carpets done on the same day, we could get a deal. I went for it and am I ever glad I did. The price was great and my carpets have never looked better. The guy who did the carpet cleaning was very pleasant and kind. He even went beyond the job and managed to get some paint drops off the carpet. You know, it's those tiny little extras that make all the difference. Would I hire them again? You bet, without a second thought. I've even keep the bill handy so I have their information close at hand. Thanks Steamway!

I shopped at Hanningan's for the first time a few months back. I was having a terrible time deciding on paint color and brand. I had 22 sample color cans at home and was getting nowhere on trying to make a decision. The staff there helped me a lot. The girl who assisted me was friendly and non-judgemental. She listened to me and told me what would be the best color, brand and price for my project. She didn't try to stick me with something that I didn't want or try to sell me the highest priced paint. I really appreciated that and admired her ethics. She carried the paint to the car for me and even stuck in a paint can opener as a bonus. It was the perfect touch to a great experience. The next time I need paint I'll shop at Hanningan's Paint and Decor instead of going all over the city to find what I need. Thanks Hannigans!

I hired LB Designs to help me find a pleasant and functional design for my tiny space. Marnie came out and was a great help. Even though the house was a cluttered mess with renovations she didn't say anything. She listened patiently to all my thoughts and ideas and did her best to accommodate me, while making me see that everything I wanted wouldn't work. Yes, I would hire LB Design again, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone with a small space challenge.

Nightmare!!!! Stay away from them. I first contacted College Pro Painters to get an estimate on how much it would cost to paint my house. Originally, everything was OK. I was told the cost would be the same if I provided the paint or not, so I took my paint back to the store. Then, e-mails weren't answered for days, and when an appointment was booked, he didn't show. He didn't even call to say he wasn't coming. My day was wasted in waiting. He eventually called all apologetic, and said he had gone away for the weekend with his family. After this experience, I decided to have him paint the storage room only and see how that was handled before I hired him to paint the rest of the house. He then told me that he would have to charge me to resubmit the quote and since I wasn't providing the paint, it would cost more. That was it, I had had enough. I hired a guy from Kijiji and he did a great job of painting the whole house for about what College Pro Painters originally quoted me. Also, I had contacted College Pro for a window cleaning quote and the girl was really snippy. I will never again deal with College Pro Painters and I would never recommend them to anyone else.

My first experience with Ram was when I hired them to clean my second floor windows. I was very impressed with the gentleman who came and did the work. He was kind and compassionate. When I said, "You missed a spot," he smiled and went over the area again. He was diligent and had a good work ethic. Because of this experience I then hired Ram to clean my blind. Once again I was greeted by a friendly and considerate employee. I'm was very impressed with Ram's staff and their prices were reasonable. I was a real pleasure to deal with this company, and when I am able, I will hire them for future work. Kudos to Ram!!

When I entered this store for the first time, I was greeted in a friendly and warm manner. I was asked if I needed any help and was shown around. I purchased a few items for my new home and it was a very pleasant experience. I will definitely return to shop at Urban Barn for any future needs.
