Great source. An institution that has everything you need. Great place for researching items . The staff can answer your questions. You can find the same items for less elsewhere
My Favorite for Home Goods. Although delivery is no longer free (they now charge $6 or $7 for as much as you want to have delivered in one day), this is still the place I choose for housewares because of the selection and service. I find the selection higher quality and more edited than big box stores like Bed, Bath and Beyond and Home Depot, and the personal service a relief. Although some things are more expensive than the big box stores, the quality is generally better and some things are actually about the same price or even a lower price. After returning a disappointing vacuum cleaner to Bed Bath, I found a better one at Gracious Home for about the same price. What's more, they assembled it for free and delivered it within about two hours.
Everything for the home--including the kitchen sink..
The Scoop
The charms of mom-and-pop hardware stores are often hidden among assortments of nuts, bolts and screws. Although Gracious could house ten such establishments within its walls, it doesn't fail to deliver that feeling. The essentials like light bulbs and mops are joined by needlepoint tissue box holders and star-shaped door knobs. It's been a palace of urban domesticity since it opened as a small neighborhood shop in 1963.
The Goods
It might be easier to list what you can't get here than what you can. They boast of having 175,000 items in stock, and looking at the walls and shelves--that seems quite believable. Gracious Home has filled its three floors with almost everything you need to make your home the one you've always dreamed of, at prices that are reasonable for this town. And while they won't throw in the kitchen sink, they will help install it.
Hardware Supplies etc.
Excellent product selection ... excellent service
(including free delivery in Manhattan). Only negative ... their prices are high.
