Went into the store to pick up something I bought online. I pressed the button for help about a dozen times. Was standing there for like 20 minutes. The cashier finally came over and asked if I was waiting for something. They then helped me get the stuff I had bought. They mentioned that I shouldve gotten in the line, but in the past when I have gotten in the line I was told that they couldnt help me there and that I had to press the button. My suggestion is to curbside or just buy inside. I do not recommend in store pickup!

Great selection of art supplies and crafting supplies. They have coupons 99.9% of the time. I can always find what I need.

Customer service is really poor here. The girl in the frames department is very unfriendly, giving customers dirty looks and running to hide in a different aisle when anyone to attempts to raise a hand/finger and ask a question. Hobby Lobby also poor customer service, but not quite as unwelcoming as this Michaels. Selection is smaller than Hobby Lobby (with the exception of Halloween items, as the latter does not carry many Halloween items) and prices are similar or higher. I was looking for a frame for a college degree, and I thought the $10-$20 range at HL was high, but Michaels had a smaller selection of degree frames (there were two items to choose from) and they were both over $30. Bathroom was reasonably clean, and the selection of fake flowers is good.

Purchased the most amazing red metal cart with wheels for my daughters makeup and hair supplies. Such a deal! Michaels everyday low price of $30 was better than I could find anywhere else. I attached a power strip to the side of the bottom shelf now she can plug her flat iron in and leave it on the metal cart while she does her hair in the morning instead of setting it on the floor. Ahhh kids. The cart is amazing I plan to go back and purchase 3 more for around the house. Perfect for cleaning supplies, laundry room, and of course my craft room. The carts a really sturdy and has a ton of space. Love it. Thanks Michaels!

Arrived around 9:30a and was told no framing people would be there until after 11 at the earliest. Would have been great to know that they cant do framing during all normal store hours before driving all the way to the store.

Very helpful and friendly staff. Great selections for crafting. What is great about the staff is that if they dont have what you need they suggest where you might obtain it. Now that is confidence. Im going back.

I will always opt to purchase crafting and cake supplies from Michaels as they do not discriminate against anybody. I vote with my wallet. Having said that, they have a great selection of Wilton supplies and an amazing array of jars, beads, and baskets. Seasonal crafting and gift supplies are very well stocked. Highly recommend.

I always love going shopping at Michaels. This store was really good too but need more help on the floor to find stuff. I needed more stuff but ran out of time. My friend picked up the remainder at Hobby Lobby. I will be shopping again but when I have more than an hour to shop.

I had issues ordering online several times. The manager here, Lauren, helped me get the items I needed at the online only price. Saved my business a lot of frustration.

Love this store. The company doesn’t send many 60% off coupons but you can always find a 40% off coupon online. I was helped by Demetrius and he is so knowledgeable about the whole store. The store isn’t cluttered and everything is easy to find. They have a great clearance section.

Okay, so what craft store doesnt have a fabric section? Seriously, no fabric at all. Which is what I went there for. The store is small and the aisles are tiny. They are lacking in jewelry supplies big time. I mean it is sad. The paper crafting section is very small. The floral department is larger than anything else. But it was still lacking. They had a lot of Halloween stuff and just put out some Christmas items which was nice but it wasnt on sale. Overall I was hugely disappointed in this Michaels. My former Michaels was massive and had everything. I guess, I was just spoiled by that.

I love the products, selection and sale prices. The fact that as many as 12 people were in line at once and only one cashier open is frustrating. Not until I got up there, after waiting in line for 5 customers in front of me, did they have a second cashier come up because I asked them to.

Michaels has a bit of everything for the sewer or crafter. Their employees are very knowledgeable and helpful.

Sa
Review №45

They have a lot of craft stuff to chose from in there store at pretty decent prices with the coupons from their app. Only reason I dont give them 5 stars is that they dont have much if anything for sewing or quilting. Also the checkout lines are always long. The other day I was the 11th person in line. By the time I was helped there were 6 more people behind me, and the cashiers did not seem to be in any hurry which was frustrating. Maybe it takes so long to check out because of the holidays, but everytime Ive gone when there wasnt a holiday, theyre still pretty busy.

Only because their yarn was so low. Seems they cant keep a good level of stock.

Love Michaels, always have. But this location did take away the option from me to buy my plastic canvases here. If I want them I have to go online now making them much more expensive.

Alot of options for stuff, this one is better supplied for artists than some other Michaels, must be because of university vinsity with art classes and sororities doing crafts.

There was so much extra holiday merchandise stuffed in with all the regular products that the place felt like a chaotic mess. It was hard to find things. I cannot comment on how the store is sitting regular season.

Review №66

Placed online order which was processed correctly , however the online order pickup area is located at the custom frame counter. There were 2 employees working the counter however I had to wait 10 minutes for the customers to finish picking out elaborate custom framing orders. I feel like the employees could have acknowledge d my presence atleast during my wait. Surely while their customers decided what color mats and frames and glass, they could have separated themselves from their customer for 1 moment and retrieved my order that was literally 2 footsteps behind them. My order was already paid for. This seems to be a training opportunity! Bad online order pick up experience at Michaels!

I regularly shop elsewhere. My son gave me a Michaels gift card for Christmas. I am still trying to spend the money on it. The employees have difficulty each of the 3 times I have been in attempting to get the card to work. Always ready to show me what I am doing wrong. I still have money left on the card after todays trip because it is extremely difficult for me to find what I am searching for. Today I wanted emerald green deco mesh to make a wreath. The only size I. Stock was 6 inch. I never make tiny decorations, so it was useless. I will have to go back again to finish spending this same gift card. There are tiny choices for each craft but if you are looking for something in particular use you regular store.

So Ive been coming to this Michaels for years. And i always have a warm experience, but recently a newer cashier named Nautica has been nothing shy of excellent. Not only is her customer service amazing, she always has a smile and a welcoming attitude. I will continue to shop here for all of my craft needs!

Review №81

The staff is very rude. Especially one of the girls who are in the back at the pick up station. I went in for a pick up and was holding the order in my hand and she asked for my name. I said it and she said “are you sure? I don’t see any Latin names here” first of all yes I am latina but the last name is not. Then I just handed her the paper without saying a word and she found it. She’s miserable and it shows.

Review №86

For me it was a typical Michaels experience where you have no clue where the art supplies are and you look at the price tag so you can’t tell if the 30 x 40 canvas is the 49 or the $75 it just goes on and on in that place people are walking around going have you seen this have you seen that. I just don’t understand why they don’t improve the usability of the store with more signage and direction and the price tags I have to do it online I just can’t take it in there.

Pretty decent stock for the location size. Staff is always quite friendly and ready to be helpful. I usually research everything myself before going to buy something there, so Im not sure how knowledgeable they are, but they seem to do a good job helping folks. Theres always a coupon it seems, so you can get a pretty good deal in addition to all the weekly sales.
