Seriously, can I just buy the entire store. There is absolutely nothing to dislike about CB2. If you want to decorate your home and living space with quality products retailed at moderate prices, then CB2 is the best place to shop. Their colorful, contemporary and modern style home and office accessories are refreshing, new designs and can really add some punch of hipness to any drab and ordinary living/work space.
If you love Crate & Barrel, then you may love CB2 even more. They sell a wide array of furniture and accessories for every room of your house. The pricing varies and some products can range from cheap to expensive, but the quality is great. You can't compare to the likes of other stores such as IKEA. I've had a share of IKEA pieces, and their furniture is a temporary solution for the home/office. You may be paying more at CB2, but you're certainly getting bang for your buck. Another plus, CB2 furniture comes already assembled. I highly appreciate the variety of fun colors and patterns that CB2 accessories offers as it adds a lot of character to any space. CB2 makes home/office decorating super easy even for those who are clueless when it comes to interior design and decoration.
All in all, this is a fun store to shop if searching for some new furniture and accessories for the home or office. I never get bored in this store, unlike a lot of other places where the style is often generic, boring, and very predictable. For now, CB2 has a smaller selection and inventory of items and styles when compared to the original Crate & Barrel. I can only hope they'd expand the selection over time. If you live far from the store or outside Manhattan, you can always ask for the items to be shipped to your home.
