    Good selection - and in stock - of items for home printers. Open hours are convenient and locations are decent - (altho I remember when there were many more !)

    Went to Staples in Union Square late last month as I had computer issues. Guillermo is a great tech. Went over my computer and explained about Windows 10 leaving. Also showed me comparable computers for when I decide to upgrade. He was friendly, professional and explained what he was doing when on the computer. Highly recommended if you're downtown. Great store. Reminds me of the one back on 5th Avenue years ago

    Unfortunately, Staples seems to be downsizing. At least four of my "go to" stores in Manhattan have closed in recent years, so I am pretty much restricted to shopping at their Union Square West location. Personnel are nice enough, but there aren't too many of them. The place is seriously undermanned. Yesterday I had to wait to make a purchase because there wasn't a single clerk at any of the cash registers. But the place itself is clean and seems to be well organized.
