Kitchen Kaboodle

I'm a sucker for household goods stores, so of course I loved this upscale kitchen/home store! My kid purchased her fancy shmancy coffee/espresso machine here, so she knew I'd enjoy checking this place out. And she was RIGHT.

Think HomeGoods or HomeSense stores, but much MUCH higher end. That about encapsulates this place.

The store itself is one large, open concept floor. It has all sorts of kitchen gadgets and linens, gourmet foods/condiments, patio furniture and gardening accessories, home furnishings and household accessories.

Nothing is cheap here, literally or figuratively. Everything is super well-made, but very pricey. My kid saw a pizza platter here for $20 that she purchased the day before at HomeGoods for $4.99. The exact same item. That said, this place carries a lot of brands and items that you cannot find elsewhere, and the staff are extremely knowledgeable about their product lines.

I liked their selection of retro wall clocks in a rainbow of colors, each for about $50 (I thought that was reasonable). Also, note that their sale prices on items are excellent deals. And they also carry smaller scale, cute gift things, on carousels by the front counter. I got my friend a cute pair of socks here.

We bought some dining chairs 5 yrs ago from Kitchen Kaboodle, with vinyl covered seat cushions. A couple years back we noticed the paint was coming off the vinyl! It looks terrible. And no help from Kitchen Kaboodle customer service. I was hoping for free replacement, a credit of a discount on new chairs, but they wont even answer my emails or return phone calls.
See the pictures attached. Buyer beware!

First time at their new space! They moved from their original location on NW 23rd and took over the previous Cost Plus World Market location, still on NW 23rd and Burnside. It took me awhile to get my bearings as the layout was so different from their other locations and there is so much free space!

Since they are now on one floor, an entire area is dedicated to furniture - beds, sectionals, tables, chairs, recliners - and you can see everything much easier, so important when you need to compare. Many items have options to customize fabrics and wood. They carry American Leather recliners which are my all time favorite. Small footprint and so comfortable.

All of the colorful fiesta dinnerware is still there. As is the huge assortment of white dinnerware, bowls, serving platters, ramekins, pitchers and accessories. Plus simple glassware covering all types of drinks - water, juice, white wine, red wine, champagne, martini, margarita, highball - so you can buy the type and quantity you need, and they all go together.

Shelves of small appliances, lots of baking pans and tools, dish towels, aprons, kitchen gadgets (always my favorite) and barware, too. Plus lots of local and national brand pantry staples.

Since it's summer, they had a large variety of outdoor dining tables, bistro and conversation sets, with recliners and stack chairs also available. And of course outdoor dinnerware, many ready fir your July 4th celebration.

A Portland company that has been around since the mid 70s, it's always nice to support local. At the same time, you are getting quality items and fantastic customer service.

Free parking is available in their lot on the same level as the store, plus in the parking garage down below off Westover, making it a breeze to pop in for whatever kitchen or dining item you are seeking.

With most stores around the area shutting down , I am glad Kitchen kaboodle has only moved a few blocks and is now in a much spacious location . At this particular location you can find a good selection of the finest cookware, bakeware, cutlery, tools & gadgets, kitchen appliances, as well as furniture and furnishings . They also have furniture options where you can o customize fabrics and wood. My personal favorites is the fine-china and glassware section , so many colors and styles to choose from . The products are always of the highest quality and I have been using them for years with no complains .
Their is a huge parking lot right behind the store and the staff seems to be knowledgeable and accessible without being too overbearing .

Overpriced, and the employees ignored my Asian girlfriend. I will not be back. Look here and shop on Amazon.

I love Kitchen Kaboodle, especially this location!
If you are a true Portlander, this is the go to place for kitchen and furniture.
I was looking for new dinnerware, and found this Kotobuki line hand made in Japan, fired in the original tradition where the rough and imperfect is treasured.
How Portland is that?
I'd seen other dinnerware at other stores, but they are mass produced.

Yes, I also have dinnerware from Portland Saturday Market, and Made In Oregon, but I wanted something more refined., so I got this Kotobuki line.

The staff is great here too! It's not that I come here that often, but the staff and I recognize each other.
They are very friendly, and knowledgeable.
One time, I came in to buy a waffle maker, and the guy showed me the one that he got for his mom. He said she loves it!
Tip: Check out the furniture and pillows.

Kitchen Kaboodle is a go to place for kitchen gadgets too.
There's free parking on the upper deck at store front level, and also in the lower parking garage.

The gentleman in the NW store of the custom order department is very responsive in resolving my issue re my dining table. I am impressed with his diligence and creative way in coming up with a solution. I am very satisfied with the final outcome. I highly recommend the store and the merchandises it sells.

Employee (older gal with gray hair) was a bit rude and condescending. I'll go elsewhere to spend my money.

This has to be said. What perverse brand of sadism, after what I'm sure is thousands of complaints, makes them keep using sku stickers that are impossible to get off? Yes, there are much bigger problems in the world, but there's really no excuse for this

Local alternative to Sur La Table, Bed Bath & Beyond, etc. Friendly staff and lots of cool products!

However, buyer beware! Test your products before you buy. I bought a food processor and it didn't turn on when I got home. They do not cover shipping for returns. I live 2+ hours away and rarely ever come to the city, so it was a big hassle to return to the store to get an exchange.
