The Habitat ReStore

I found half the furniture was in terrible condition, but still pricey. I understand it's a charitable organization, but foisting junk for $$$ is harsh, when most who shop there are looking for a bargain. Don't look here!

This place and the one on Williams Blvd have the best variety of used furniture around. Found some gems. I was really surprised at how many new cabinets they had at such low prices.

I've had good luck on several occasions with hard to find supplies that I was looking for renovating my house! Got some tile for my bathroom floor at a really good price, some doors that fit in the larger space of the historic home, and some furniture. Prices are pretty good, and they have a unique inventory that is varied.

This store has a lot of inexpensive items. They have everything from plumbing, to doors, restrooms, lighting, Windows, furniture, painting, etc etc...If you're getting a new apartment, furniture for your dorm, want a project to do, a gift for a friend, or just need that one piece of furniture then check this place out.

I called this store to donate clothes (some of them new with tags), 2 couches and some small appliances. The woman that I spoke to was extremely rude. She told me that they don't accept clothes (which was fine), then she told me that they don't take small appliances. I said, "well that's odd because I've been in your several times and have seen small appliances in there". She said, "Well, small appliances like what"? After I told her what I had she asked for my name and number and told me that she would call me back with a pick up day and time (not offering any options). That was 1.5 weeks ago and I haven't heard back from them. I'm going to call The a Goodwill or Salvation Army! It's shameful that attempting to donate to charity can be such an awful experience. You shouldn't be treated poorly by ANY charitable organization. I won't be donating to Habitat For Humanity in the future.

Part of the growing number of salvage building supply stores in the city.While I've found that the ReStore has more furniture and appliances than the Green Project carries, there is a huge overlap in the other stuff they sell: doors, windows, hardware, and architectural details. They also have a small area filled with used books.Toward the back, there is a conveyor belt system that goes to the second floor of the warehouse. Doesn't look like they use it, but its darn cool to stare at, which is exactly what I did.All proceeds from the store benefit the local chapter of Habitat for Humanity, so stock up and feel good about it!

I am impressed with the helpfulness of everyone I have encountered at the restore they are all friendly and try to help you anyway they can. I have bought new tile there for a fraction of what it would have cost me anywhere else. and new boxed Cabinets you can't go wrong if you treat them with respect.

Do NOT purchase ANYTHING from this Habitat for humanity store in New Orleans . We Purchased 2 furniture items less than 24 hours later we went to retrieve the items BUT THEY WERE NOT THERE !! Manager had a bad attitude and zero concern that they gave our items to someone else . Really got the feeling that she took themOr someone she knows took them. we Purchased a white bookshelf and nightstand made by potterybarn, sold stickers were placed on items as directed by cashier with our name and receipt number and said we would be back today for the items. They were gone . So either staff took them or a customer took them so I guess no one bothered to check their receipt!!! The items we purchased matched a twin bed there . We didn't purchase the bed , we purchased the two bookshelves . Today, the bed was gone along with our items .They refused to contact the person who bought the bed and took our items. Said and I quote , " I can't contact them behind that " Hmmm shady . We are in there a lot and have spent THOUSANDS of dollars at Restore Habitat for Humanity. This is the worst service we have received. Will not be back . MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT GO TO THIS STORE !! Unfortunately, anyone can take things you purchase .

Found the perfect desk that I've been needing for my home office. Solid wood, in impeccable condition, priced at $65, but they were taking 50% off all furniture, so it only cost me $32.50The floor sales associate was very polite and helpful --very professional. Same with the cashier and the guys in the back. All of them showed excellent service skills, stemming -I'm sure- from a genuine desire to make a positive difference for their customers. Highly recommended!

Beware when buying appliances! They don't test them before putting them out for sale! We bought a dryer, unloaded it off the truck, hauled it about 60 feet to get it into position, hooked it up and it doesn't work. Now we've gotta load it back into the truck and drive it back for a refund. Why don't they just test them first?!! I'm pissed. I won't be shopping here again.
