Big Reuse Brooklyn

I always feel prices are unrealistically high. I love where the heart and concept of this place is but I always have more success elsewhere. Particularly for furniture pieces.

Lots of great deals if you are handy and imaginative, large selection of salvaged furniture and appliances

This is a great place to go looking for unique period items. They've also got "like new" kitchen cabinets, appliances, etc. Staff are helpful and friendly.

I thought this place was awesome UNTIL...it turns out if you don't know plumbing parts in and out then you will end up wasting your money here. I bought two toilets and 1 pedestal sink with faucet, good brands but the toilets were missing some major parts (not visible to the novice) and when the sink had been uninstalled whoever did it wrenched the thing out and bent a pipe so that the faucet is unsuable! So what good is buying stuff at a discount if you then end up paying full price just to replace the parts!!!???? They should more deeply discount the products and make it very clear that you shouldn't buy it if you aren't an expert in the product you are buying.

The staff may seem a bit tired but they have a really good selection here of doors, chairs, kitchen features, wall sconces and more things for your home. The prices can vary depending on the quality or age of the pieces. They also have almost their entire selection listed on the website where you can see photos and call ahead to make sure things are still in stock. It's a bit removed from main traffic areas, so if you buy a number of things be sure to arrange for a car ahead of time.
