Bed Bath & Beyond

Love this location. The store seems a bit smaller than others, as items are exploding everywhere. They have a huge selection of products for the bed and bath, plus much more. Apparently coupons are sent thru the mail and a precious commodity. After hearing everyone talking about their coupons I asked Luis the manager if he could find one for me and he checked several registers and it saved me $ 20 off my order. Additionally I wanted an item not in the store and the lovely Rachel offered to place the order for me with free delivery and was able to use her coupon to save another 20. Luis runs a great store and I hope soon that Rachel will be a manager too!

Truly had a pleasurable experience while I’m this store. Everyone acknowledges you and are truly friendly. This has to be my favorite location of all time and I definitely will return!

I may be a bit biased because my step son works at the store, but this bed bath and beyond is great! Everything you could possibly think of you need or want for your home is here. My two favorite things about this company is that any coupon you receive is always good. And their return policy is amazing. If you buy a product that they carry and a few months later or year later or year and a half later it breaks they will replace it as long as they still sell that companies items in their stores. Another favorite part of that store is there is a section with a huge wall filled with all cool gadgety things for your kitchen. One of my favorites is a product called Plinks. They are lemon orange or lavender scented balls that you put into your garbage disposal and run for about 15 seconds and it gets rid of any yucky garbage disposal smells. I highly recommend a trip to the store.

This store has been located in the same spot for many years. It is on the Northeast corner of North Dale Mabry, if you are heading north, just past Fletcher Ave.
Parking at this location is a nightmare, plain and, it’s a fact of life.
The store is packed with about anything you can imagine and them, more. It can have a cluttered feel to it, but if you take some time you will find many interesting and quality products.
This store is located closest to where I live, so it tends to be where I shop. It is not the nicest Bed, Bath & Beyond in town, but they all appear to have the same inventory.
I had to return a product once and it was quite painless and they were very gracious and helpful with the return. I also like their coupon policy and that you regularly receive $ 5.00 off coupons in the mail.
It is exactly what the name implies and more. When you drop in for a visit, give yourself some extra time, as you will want to browse the items in the store. It does have many items that evoke «sticker shock» & I think that many other products I feel are overpriced.
What’s a girl to do? I love kitchen gadgets, so I have to keep checking in.

Real Brides go to Gina!
If you need to register at BBB for anything, find Gina. I was lucky enough to work with her to register for my wedding. She was about to head to lunch (which I found out later) when I arrived at 130PM, and we didn’t finish until after 7.
First of all, I had no idea what I was doing. I was avoiding this day like the plague! The process was incredibly smooth, and step by step we began to build the registry. Gina was honest, straightforward and extremely knowledgeable, so much so that by the end of the day I was simply telling her to pick whatever she thought was best within our parameters.
Second, I’ve never had such a great experience in a BBB or any store like it. I hate shopping, but registering? Ugh! This process is often tedious, but she made it fun. She rode the waves of my emotions instead of getting frustrated like a rookie.
I understand that this is supposed to be a review for BBB, not Gina, so I must say that the rest of the staff was helpful as well. When you spend half a day in a store, you see a lot. The manager even checked in on us. It was just a great day.
If you are registering, find Gina. If you aren’t, this BBB is one of the nicer, large ones around here, so I’d still recommend it.

Went in to buy a replacement cartridge for my Sodastream. Found that as well as some soda refills. Whenever I’ve gone here in the past, for everything from spatulas to bed linen, I’ve found what I wanted. Made in America? Depends on the product. Colanders? Found one made here. I’ve been ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ trying to make it around the aisle displays without succumbing to something I didn’t expect to buy, but what the heck.
Checkout? Hectic. What I can’t figure out is that there always seems to be twice as many people buying things at the registers then there are in the rest of the store. Where did they come from?
Parking? My antennas are always up. It’s a shared parking lot with a pet store, a fresh market, a number of small take out shops, a music store, etc. and there are only three exits, two onto Fletcher and one onto Dale Mabry. People flying along in their cars in the parking lot trying to be the next one out onto the roads. Be careful.

Great innovative products, fun shopping experience, until… checkout. Now I remember why I don’t shop there.
Three people in line, two clerks checking out the same customer; 7 minute wait, no acknowledgement, left without purchases.

Good selection, though I wish there were more signs to direct you. Prices are high bit that’s to be expected

Not my favorite Bed Bath & Beyond, even though they are closer than the store in Citrus Park. This one is located at the corner of N. Dale Mabry and Fletcher, in the same shopping center as Petco and Whole Foods.
The layout of this store is very similar to other BBB’s that I’ve visited, but I’m disappointed to report that their selection is lacking. I’ve had several occasions where I’ve stopped in looking for a single item to use at home, or to pack up as a gift… and it’s out of stock. As a result I end up ordering the item off of their website, or traveling over to the store in Citrus Park which seems to have a much better selection.
The staff is very helpful, friendly, and apologetic… but since I seldom can find what I want I think I’ll skip this store and visit the one in Citrus Park instead.

I’d avoid this one… The lines are always long and they are extremely short staffed. And i cant imagine coming in here and not knowing what you need. We had a registry so we found what we needed quick but good luck trying to get help.

Staff: Helpful and cheerful. That was unexpected and saved this from being an epic fail review.
Item: Shoe rack — broken when I got it outta the box. Issue: The display model was waaaaayyyyy up on a shelf where I could see it but not check it out to see if it would actually work for big chunky men’s shoes… It does not.
And its broken. So now I have to drive my ass all the way up to Sterilewood since they don’t have a store in S Tampa… and that makes me very unhappy.
But — again — the really friendly and helpful staff saved them from a single star. Too bad this chinese crap was such shite.
EDIT TO ADD: The return process was not a big deal — and the manager tried his best to make it better, given the epic drive back there from S Tampa… but really, just don’t sell crap product and you won’t have unhappy customers.

I came to this Bed Bath & Beyond to find a blender and I must say that the selection was more than dissappointing. I left without making a purchase. I didn’t see anyone around to help either…

This store is in marked contrast to the other Tampa store. No help in sight. Then when I inquired about some items that weren’t marked, the person (who I wish I had their name so I could put it down here) acted like they were busy & was doing me a huge favor to look it up in their computer. She even said erroneously that they don’t mark their towels but all the other ones in the store but these 2 last ones that match a set I have were priced. She stated that these 2 would be sent to another store that has these in inventory & pulled them out of my hand. So I just left since she was so rude. I should be a secret shopper!
