    Very disappointed with Habitat and their decision to no longer accept slightly used kitchen/bath products any longer. As a kitchen and bath renovator I have donated countless gently used items over the years but was recently told they now only accept new in the box items. This is a total loss of mission for Habitat. On the back end I have referred many friends to Habitat over the years for excellent value on used product. I can no longer do this as they no longer take in good quality used product… Will miss you Habitat.

    I like the concept but the furniture was severely overpriced for the condition. Lots of wobly particle board items priced as mint condition.
