The Bad

There is a lack of some information on the World Market Website which may be inconvenient for some consumers. -No warranty information on website -No International Shipping We were unable to find specific warranty information on the Cost Plus World Market website. Consumers may have to contact customer service to inquire about warranty information for specific products. Consumers may contact customer service through the Cost Plus World Market website or by phone at 1-877-967-5362. A potential downside to using Cost Plus World Market is their lack of international shipping availability. Currently consumers are able to ship anywhere in the US. Many of their competitors offer shipping to several countries including the US, which may make them a less appealing option for some individuals.

Unhappy Customer

I love love love this store. They have the cutest decorative items and some furniture as well. Their prices are much less than what you'd pay for the same thing (or similar) in stores like Home Goods, Kirklands, Michaels, Pier 1, etc. I bought a couple of things from this store through their website and I've been quite pleased. My only issue with this store is that they do not have locations near me so if I want to return something, I either have to drive to their nearest location which is an hour away from me, or I have to pay to have it shipped back to them. Other than that, they're a good store.

The salesman was very helpful and cooperative during my trip to your store. He suggested few options to match that go with the furniture I liked. He has good knowledge of sales and house decoration. He's very friendly and gave good hospitality kind of behavior. I felt very comfortable buying stuff here. Seems like it's a reliable store. I will definitely come back and ask my friends to buy home decoration & furniture from here. Thank you for providing such a nice sales person.

I love everything about World Market! It's such a FUN store! I find myself getting lost and wanting to buy everything. I've purchased bath/home goods, towels, soaps, lotions, furniture, housewares, and LOTS of Torani syrups for my tea and coffee! Everyone is so friendly. The closest store is in Phoenix, at Happy Valley and I17 - which is a 90 minute drive for me, but well worth it!

World Market has become one of my favorite stores for unique and globally inspired home decor. The diverse range of furniture, textiles, and kitchenware offers a refreshing departure from mainstream options. The store's frequent sales and membership discounts enhance the value. Navigating through the curated selections feels like a delightful journey, making World Market a distinctive and enjoyable shopping experience for me.

World Market is dangerous! You go in for one thing and come out with 15 other things! Seriously though, they have great products. I love their selection of international goods you can't get elsewhere. They have a great selection of picture frames and art prints. They also are my go-to for holiday decorations, be it Christmas or Halloween. I absolutely love their kitchen products, too. They sell some top-notch cookware, glassware, and plate sets. It's basically your one-stop shop for home goods.

Whenever I go to a new city and I see a World Market, I know that I'll like the city ;). I love their versatility and the items I can find there. My husband is from South America and we are able to find a lot of his childhood favorites on the shelves. I also love their unique furniture and decor--it's a great store for specialty food items as well as gifting and decorating.

I like World Market Company mostly for their quality best goods. I parches many products from here like Bath shop, shampoo, a towel, a coffee mug, a tooth brush and some kitchen goods. All was so best and very nice. I mostly like their return policy. So great.

I absolutely love World Market! It has the most interesting furniture of great quality. I purchased a coffee and side table there in 2004 and it still looks as good as new. There is always something that you can find at World Market that you just have to get. That is why I cannot walk in there very often

I love World Market! A couple months ago I was on vacation in Florida and I stopped into a World Market. First, it smelled delicious, and second, I wished I had a bigger suitcase to bring stuff home. It is a feast for the eyes and nose in there. You will always find interesting home decor and food items. I can't wait to return again.
