Kitchen Kaboodle

There are lots of staff there, you can find what you want

If you can’t find it at Kitchen Kaboodle, you probably won’t find it any where! Very much like Williams Sonoma and Sur la Table but smaller and friendlier, and you don’t have to haul yourself into a Mall to shop. Their selection of kitchen items is phenomenal for such a small space. I saw every high-​end brand of cookware displayed too. The furniture is very expensive but I probably wouldn’t buy it at Kitchen Kaboodle anyway. Staff is helpful without badgering you and they get the message quickly when you just want to browse. Great alternative to Mall stores.

Wow I can’t believe the misrepresentation of customer service in person compared to the call I made minutes before. I called in earlier and spoke with a very nice gentlemen I told him I have the 5 quart lift stand mixer need a pouring shield. Do you have any in stock. Puts me on hold comes back says yes we do its this much there’s one in stock. I asked do you also have other attachments and accessories for the mixer. He said yes we have lots! So I excitedly drive on over … The window cleaners were very polite, opened the door for me, go in, walk up to the front counter where there are two employees talking I stand there for about thirty seconds until one decides to say «do you have a question» (I should have known right there and walked away) I said to her «I just called in and spoke with someone about attachments and accessories for my kitchenaid mixer. She walks me over to the kitchenaid area I tell her I need a pouring shield mainly so she picks one up looks over at the machines says do you have one of those. Which are the tilt heads I said no it’s one of those and pointed to the bowl lift models but said its a 5 quart. So LOUDLY MISS THANG SAYS «OH SO ITS A OLD ONE! Umm no it’s brand new. Well where did you get it? Me“I don’t know» it was a gift. Then she goes off on a shpeel about Costco makes a different version and literally scared me out of there. I don’t know what’s wrong with people but you guys have awful customer service.
I would give a big fat zero stars if I could! Thanks for ruining my Sunday!

Helpful management. Steer clear of employee named «Randy» rude and said very not nice things when just asking questions. Made me feel like I was commiting a crime for just asking a question. Management was extremely helpful and understanding.

I have been going to this Kitchen Kaboodle for years, I have seen them thru being open only 4 days a week to their current situation, which is quite smaller than it was before. I am not a huge fan of how small the store is now, it feels a bit stifling to me but I am slightly claustrophobic as it is.
They have everything I need, and I am fairly sure I have one of everything in the store. Today I needed a new Citrus Zester and some Halloween Cookie Cutters. They of course had both, in and out in 5 minutes or less.
Sadly none of the people working there are folks I recognize. They used to have the exact same people every time I went in and they knew me.
They have quality kitchen items and although they are not cheap they will last.

I had a similar experience that another reviewer did just a few days ago. I will start by saying that before I went into healthcare I have a background in retail marketing and management. One of the #1 rules when a patron enters the store is to greet them. Tell them that someone is available to help them if needed. This did not happen here. In fact I felt like we were ignored. The service personnel just talked amongst one another. We milled around the store for about 20 minutes until someone noticed us. Perhaps it was because I was talking very loud about needing something down from the top self and giving one of the employees the *stink eye. Finally 5 minutes after we just stood there someone finally came over. They were friendly and engaging when they finally came over. I love the selection in this store. Most stuff I think is made in USA? I don’t know about some of it because they like to put their pice sticker right over the country that the product is made. Most of their plastic stuff is made in China, but I they have items to fit every budget. They have a talented retail display person and they also sell some furniture and décor. I like their selection better than the corp SLT kitchen store. It is a local chain and a store right in Tigard, and shares a plaza style shopping center with lamps plus. It sets off the road a bit so one might miss it as you are driving by. All in all, I like this store and I will probably return to shop. I will say that to improve their sales numbers and patron satisfaction their retail sales associates need to learn customer service by hanging out with WFM team members. Put a bell on the door, when it rings, joyfully run to the door and greet the patron.

They have a great selection of products and a very friendly and helpful staff. I have been to all of their locations and have always had positive experiences. They always have something new and different from the competition. I like buying local and appreciate the great customer service.

I was impressed with the selection of kitchen items here. Things are reasonably priced and I liked that the staff provided an appropriate amount of customer service. The store was fairly empty and I was worried they weren’t going to just let me shop, but it was a good atmosphere and I wasn’t bothered by any over-​enthusiastic sales associates.
The only issue came when I wanted to check out. They didn’t have a SKU on something (pop-​up spunges… which are cool and can be difficult to find) and it took a long time for them to look it up. At least they finally figured it out I suppose. The associate was nice and overall I give it two thumbs up.

friendly staff is always helpful.
great selection, this is one of my go to photography prop places.
soda stream refills too — which is great now that they are OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK AGAIN! woooo!

This place is quite nice. I go here often for everything from the basics to high end stuff. They have soda-​stream flavors and refill CO2 cartridges. They have nice knives and pots and pans. Tons of stuff here is made in the USA, if you look carefully and are willing to pay a slightly higher price.
The employees have always been super friendly and helpful, although I admit that I don’t ask for help lots of the times.
Their furniture is pretty neat, but I buy that stuff so much more rarely that I don’t have much experience with that side of it.
Also — they’re locally owned. That never hurts.

We recently paid a visit to Kitchen Kaboodle in Beaverton for the first time in a while. It was a bit confusing. At first we thought they turned it into a closeout store or something. The sign in the window said only open Thursday-​Sunday. What? So, if I have a dutch oven emergency on a Monday I’m outta luck til Thursday?
Anyway, I guess they decided to come up with a way to survive the recession with limited hours, less stock and items that are forever on sale. Don’t ask me why they don’t just lower the price instead of the fake-​o sale. Let’s hear it for psychology and marketing working together to drain our wallets!
So, long weekend hours and bare looking shelves, but still a good selection and now some lower prices on things. It’s okay.

I like buying local when I can, and I like this particular location the best. Friendly service, well displayed. My only complaint about this local chain is that none of the stores are layed out the same so if you go into a new store you have to wander and find what you are looking for. But maybe wander isn’t so bad because you always discover some gadget you didn’t know even existed!
