I'm a longtime customer of Area, and the quality and design are still the best I've ever seen.
I would purchase again but my first purchase did not do well. The top sheet kind up shredded apart right down the middle and the fitted sheet did not hold up with the elastic corners. Since this was a gift- the top sheet was thrown away however he is returning the bottom sheet for repair. I'm hoping the replacement will be of better quality. The first set was purchased in upstate New York (Hudson) last October. I was offered 20% discount on the replacement sheets - better than nothing but shouldn't have to pay for replacements that were less than 6 mths old. The customer service was excellent-just a tad disappointed with the correction.
A delightful experience. The location of the store is a treat - just above Washington Square Park and the layout of the products was calm and uncluttered.
I quickly found a style to meet my needs. I have been looking for cotton percale sheets that resemble a man's shirt - crisp and cool. I found the Taylor range perfect and the colors just right. I got a lilac fitted sheet and a blue top sheet ( it was on sale which was a bonus). The colors and size I needed were in stock. And all the while having a good conversation with the owner.
I try to avoid shopping at National brands and instead look for owner operated businesses so shopping at Area made sense to me and I am really happy with my purchase.
Great and amazing customer service!! This is my second purchase and I will always b loyal to AREA! Best and softest sheets ever!
