Bed Bath & Beyond

The name says it all! Well, except I’m not sure what’s Beyond my Bed. Or my Bath for that matter. There’s nothing here you can’t get on Amazon or Target but if you like cascading walls of merchandise stacked so high you feel like an ant, this is your housewares shopping paradise. I usually try to wait for one of the ubiquitous 20% off coupons or an online offer but when my son wants a Paw Patrol Tervis Tumbler (at an astonishing $ 18), we pack up the truck and get to Edgewood on the double. They will honor a coupon on a prior purchase which takes the sting out of some of those impulse purchases. The staff at this store is very friendly, very helpful and knowledgable. Ask about a Loofa and be prepared to get schooled on exfoliation factors, natural vs. textile, handle vs. no handle. Edgewood BB&B is as good as it gets for stuff you didn’t realize you needed until you saw it 24 feet above your head!

Went yesterday to pick up one thing. There was a line of six people at customer service just trying to purchase something and there were at least 5 employees hovering around not doing anything and chatting while only one person was working. I understand perhaps those five were training or not allowed to use the cashier, but they should at least notify someone to help us! None of the actual checkout lanes were even open. Eventually some managerial person walked up from the back of the store saw what was happening and kicked someone’s butt into gear after which things flowed better. 0 stars for the five people just staring at us and chatting away. 5 stars to the employee who came from the back and actually helped me.

every time we go here, we have to come back bc the stuff we bought had issues. at least they take them back or exchange them…

I was confused at my visit here. Such a small collection compared to most Bed Bath & Beyond. I guess this is the dumbed down, watered down, bare bones version. Staff was not friendly.

This Bed Bath & Beyond is located in Atlanta’s Edgewood Retail District. I’m giving this store a full five stars because of a recent experience here. On a Friday night, shortly before the store closed at 10pm, we entered looking for a bridal shower gift and a wedding gift.
Birdlee (I think that was her name, I only took a quick glance at her name tag) greeted us from the customer service counter as we walked in. We told her we were looking for gifts off a wedding registry. We gave her the bride’s name and she printed out a multi-​page list for us. She asked if we needed an escort and I said yes. No more than a minute or two passed and Joe came to greet us.
We picked out two items from the list and Joe took us directly to each one. He knew exactly where they were. We purchased the gifts separately. One gift was to be purchased at the store and taken to the shower and the other gift was to be shipped to the bride and groom. Joe informed me that if I ordered a gift in-​store and had it shipped, the shipping cost would be free. If I had ordered the same gift online through Bed Bath & Beyond’s web site, shipping would not have been free. This was a no-​brainer — I ordered the gift in-​store and had it shipped for free.
Joe quickly and efficiently handled the gift order to be shipped. I was able to use a 20% off discount postcard I received in the mail. (Finally, I put one of those things to good use.) Free shipping + 20% discount = Win.
We took the other gift to the front where there was complimentary gift wrapping. Birdlee helped us with the purchase of this gift and the gift wrapping. For this purchase, we were able to use another coupon I received in the mail. This time, a $ 5 off coupon which was on the back of a Bed Bath & Beyond catalog. The gift was kind of big, but Birdlee was able to find a box big enough to handle it. She put some brown packing paper inside the box so the gift wouldn’t slide around. The outside of the box was white with purple outlines/​accents. The best part was the sheer purple wraparound bow, which Birdlee nicely tied together. The boxed gift looked great.
Both Birdlee and Joe were friendly and helpful. We were in and out of the store in no time and had our gifts effortlessly taken care of. Everything went perfectly and I couldn’t have asked for more.

We come here often for random household items, but this review is more for the registry experience.
We came in on Sunday afternoon to do our wedding registry. I think you’re really supposed to make an appointment, but they were accommodating and had someone right out to help us.
It’s a little different than say Target where you just get the scanner, because they actually walk you around and help you fill out the registry. The lady that helped us, Kim, was super friendly and helpful. She was so knowledgeable about all the products and had some great suggestions.
If you’re looking to register somewhere, definitely come in. They’ve got a little bit of everything, and their stores are just about everywhere. They also let you take back any gift items for store credit to use at any of their stores (World Market is one).

I love Bed, Bath, and Beyond. You can find anything and everything for the home at a reasonable price and I love the organization of the store and friendliness of the staff. Also if you can’t catch the number for that late night infomercial, most likely you can find it in this store. Only a few in the Atlanta area so you are pretty special if you get to visit one.

They have some cool gadgets here, but man they are pricy!
And did I mention they are pricy?

I have shopped here quite a bit and have only not found what I needed twice. One thing was out of season so I can’t entirely blame them for that one. I love their coupon and return policy. You can use their coupons «forever» even though they have expiration dates. You can return things indefinitely if they are new. You can even return things that have problems once you have used them– I am not sure how long for though. Customer service is also great here. And I feel comfort with the security guard there at the front door since there have been some incidents in this shopping complex.

I needed to stock my new place, and had spent some time checking out things on the website… Here in the store (just after they opened), I had a hard time finding a lot of it. I asked a few staffers and they occasionally gave me vague directions. Then I lost a contact and was completely doomed to find anything, including my way home.
Honestly, I’ve been so blown away by the customer service at most other stores in the area that the «meh» customer service I received here should be insulting.
When I was checking out I asked about one final thing I hoped to find. She looked for it, and offered to order it off the website if it was there. So, their lack of selection in some areas can be offset by website orders.

This Bed Bath & Beyond does not carry nail polish or any beauty accessories carried by most BBBs. You legitimately cannot buy a nail file or polish remover at this store. From some of the other reviews, it appears that this is not the only area in which their inventory is limited. You would think it would make sense to stop carrying some of the «As Seen on TV» items and replace them with products people are actually known to buy… ahem nail polish… but that’s just my opinion.
Other than this shortcoming, this is your typical BBB. It is always very clean and bright and the employees are incredibly helpful and will walk you to any item you cannot locate.

I’m always here! I love BB&B!!! I always find great deals here and everything I buy is always of great quality. The staff is always very nice and helpful, even the security guard. Idk what I’d do without BB&B!

I was surprised to discover that the new house I’m renting doesn’t include toilet paper dispensers. Rather than stretch from the seat to grasp the latest roll, I decided I should get a couple stand-​up dispensers. Bed Bath & Beyond offers a few varieties that match an array of bathroom fixture finishes. I’m particularly fond of the Jetsons-​esque brush finish holder I used as an excuse to purchase a matching mini towel stand.
Now that I think about it, I’ve enjoyed several purchases from this BB&B location, especially a gray (yet whimsical) shower curtain that I hemmed with stitch witchery for my former tiny shower and then re-​lengthened for the new guest bath. Not to mention my beloved wood cutting board.
Others carp of this location’s lack of selection, but I have experienced nothing but the BB&B of Edgewood and wallow in blissful ignorance.

So here’s the deal — this BB&B is super convenient to us in-​towners. Its in the Edgewood Retail District and near a dozen other places. Its as close to a mall as you can get on the East Side without heading out to Stonecrest (that’s another review for another day my friend).
This store has all the same collection of items that most of the «smaller» BB&B stores have but If you’re looking to do a registry of any kind — wedding or otherwise — do yourself a favor and make the trip to Perimeter. You won’t find any china or other finer items outside of Calphalon pans and Keurig k-​kups.
The store is usually pretty well organized (hard to come in this area, honestly) and they do a pretty good job carrying seasonal items like outdoor furniture or holiday glitz, but i have one major complaint — the checkouts. I have noticed that the art and a few other items can be pretty picked over, but most of the real kitchen and home type items stay in good stock.
Maybe this store doesn’t do so well surrounded by Target and Ross, but every time I’m there i have some kind of weird check-​out situation. I’d say more often than not the only register open is returns and that would be fine by me if it didn’t mean i was going to wait. Even when more than one register is open the cashiers dart from those registers like there’s a mean game of dice going on out back. Maybe that’s part of the «beyond» i never saw?
Anyway, i like having this BB&B around and end up there often, but compared to the others around Atlanta I’d just give it 3 stars.

I really only visit Bed Bath & Beyond to shop for wedding registry items and to check out the «As Seen on TV» section. I don’t buy much else here because I can never keep track of those 20% off coupons they mail out. But since they send so many of them, it always seems like there’s a 20% up charge on all their merch.
Frankly, the gift system could use a little work. The last box I had wrapped here, though amazingly made into a purple carnation, was riddled with staples and tape to hold it all together. Then a glitch in the computer system led to several guests buying the bride-​to-​be the very same set of stemware.
Perhaps I’ll bypass the registry next time, get a gift bag, and see how well a Shake Weight goes over at the next bridal shower.

Other then the girl behind the counter I can NEVER find anyone that works there when I need to find something. Selection is okay, the discount table typically has some good finds. Great for Bridal Shopping.

The girl working the cashier was incredibly helpful, sunshiney, and lovely, but unfortunately the best customer service in the world can’t make up for the tiny selection at this Bed Bath and Beyond. Looking for grill tools for the grill master in your life? Well, you can get them a grill cover or a spatula. No grill sets, no fun thermometers, no charcoal chimneys, no beer chicken holders. In other words, just the very bare minimum of household supplies. They’ve got the bed and the bath, just nothing beyond.
It’s worth a trip if you need something very basic and have a 20% off coupon (if you don’t, sign up for their email list and they’ll email one to you instantly). But, if you’re gift shopping and looking for something unique, head to a Bed Bath and Beyond in the ‘burbs for the full selection.

On the weekends this BB&B can get a little bit busy. The store is well staffed and the staff is helpful. I was able to get my needed kitchen quickly. The lines were a bit long and there is no uniform line so you kinda wait between two cashiers hoping you get called up before the guy next to you.
