This was in interesting find. Many things to be used in remodel or replacement of homes. If you like new things to be creative with at a good price check it out. Lots to think about.

Other than bizarre pricing on some items a good way to pick up things you can use while contributing to the greater good.

I LOVE the Habitat Restore. They always have so many interesting and useful things. I always find things I hadnt realized I needed. The prices are usually very good. They have a large selection that changes regularly. They have daily and weekly discounts on items. I can usually find whatever I need at the Restore. Its definitely worth walking through the whole store.

First time at this Restore location, the store sells items donated to them. So if you are looking for something, you may or may not hit the jackpot, it depends on the donations. My son was looking for tools, but didnt find what he wanted there today, but plans on visiting this location again.There were plenty of screwdrivers and nails, mirrors and some chairs among other items for sale.I use a walker, so I look to see how easy the aisles are to navigate, they were nice and wide, with arrows for direction marked on the floor. However, I pretty much stuck to the front of the store as I found something I definitely wanted to buy for one of my grandchildren, a wooden rocking horse! I guarded it so others couldnt buy it until my son could carry it to the check out for me!Something to know, at this Restore location you have to load and unload your stuff yourself. Other Restore locations will help you. Prices were pretty fair, reasonable.

I love shopping at all the habitat restore stores in the local areas. The Albany store has a nice layout with aisleways that are wide and easy to maneuver through for the most part. The sinks and cabinets area is a little tighter to get through but well worth checking out if you need anything from those areas.I was however rather disappointed by their outdoor setup. It appears as though you can only access it through an outside gate and while a number of the items appear for sale none of them have any prices on them. Its really difficult to determine whats what in the outside yard. I think it would really benefit them if they were to do a better job of marking things or making it clearer what the prices were on the outdoor items. You think you can tell whats not for sale because it has areas with signs that say employees only but other than that it appears you have to ask an employee. Problem is there werent any employees to ask the prices of things and you cant walk directly from the outside area to the inside area with an item to find out its price.It definitely stopped me from possibly buying a couple of items because I didnt want to go back inside after Id already bought things from there to find out the price of something. I figured if they were still there next time Id ask about them but for now I was done shopping for the day.

This habitat is one of the few left I still find treasures in. Everyone that works here is really helpful and priced right. New stuff coming in often. Found these little red coffee cans there and made little chotchky caddies for em.

They have the best prices, great sales, good quality stuff too. I usually blow an entire paycheck every time I go & end up with truck loads of stuff. Great place to spend an afternoon.

I am a big fan of Habitat and the work they do. I had a bad experience at this location. I found boxes of hundreds of matching tile to do a backsplash, thinking I was lucky to find so much of it here. The chart behind the counter said 40 cents a tile, which seemed a little steep, but I figured it had to be a better price than Home Depot. The store was about to close, so I didnt bother checking until after I left. Home Depot has the same tile brand new for 15 cents a tile. So I paid triple the price, and all sales are final, so I never bothered going back.

Its an interesting place to spend a rainy afternoon. Know what you are looking for before you head in. Theres lots to look to look at. Seems like there were lots of young children running about. Glad this store is there for those who need it. I did not find the tiles I wanted but we got some ideas.

Prices on items have gone way up over the past couple of years. In some instances Ive found items there that were more expensive than if I went and bought them new at Home Depot. I have found a couple of treasures here but generally I have better luck at the Corvallis store.

Not 1 person affiliated with this store has a clue, no knowledge of comparing products. They will price the bottom of the barrel quality product with a top of the line product. Or price a 15 SF box of something with a 25 SF box to come up with a price. Giving both the same price. Even with a calculator no one can do simple math at this store. Will never step inside again. I wasnt even interested in an item anymore but went back to show them their errors and explain what was going on. They refused any logic or common sense. 1 star is too many.This is what happens when you take someone off the street and ask them to do a job when they have no knowledge or experience in the field or capability to learn it.The persons posting great reviews, likely suffering from no knowledge of the building and building supplies Industry or comparing quality and quantity.

Best store and staff you can ask for prices are great if your not a cheap a$$ and remember any of the money goes toward building projects to get houses build for needy familys anything negative said about the place would only be from people that like having bad karma or just being d-bags 😉 so head on down there and spend a little or a lot to get that good karma like we all need more of in our lives

Habitat Stores used to be a great place to go. It used to be you could go in there find yourself something help them reduce their inventory they make a little bit of money be everybodys happy. However these days it does not seem like that everything is so high so overpriced its used merchandise it doesnt have a value to anyone thats why its there in that store. Its all waiting for someone else to come along and give it a new home that has some kind of value a use for it. donations are at a all time high. They need to sell things to reduce inventory to make a little bit of money. You cant make a little bit of money if you dont sell used inventory. Come on people its used its like a garage sale.

Atrociously over-priced! They try to sell items at double the price of Craigslist, Goodwill, St. Vinnies, etc. I rarely find anything Im looking for here. Ive found items cheaper at Home Depot than here. Some items (like vintage light fixture glass globes) are reasonably priced, but theyre few and far between.

This one is a lot bigger than the Corvallis or Lebanon stores. It has less power tools than Corvallis though. Also, the screws and bolts are more organized at the Corvallis store.

Prices are only great with coupon or going on a special day. I understand that is their promos but if it was all that id come back either way. Some donations are not accepted and they do not give you 20% off or anything for donating materials. This is a better way for low income families to find materials instead of Craigslist or the Dump but pretty much has the same outdated quality.
