Won't be back. Store is overcrowded and disorganized. In the past have been able to find a few bargains but last two visits things are overpriced and quality of items is disappointing. For example, I saw several Circo brand clothing items from Target that were heavily used for $4.99 and higher. New they start at around $5. Lots of stained and very worn items. Wish owner would use more discretion when accepting items to sell on consignment, and would rotate stock to keep seasonally appropriate items out, and off season items off the rack to free up space.

Never again. Yuck

I'm pregnant with my 3rd child and I'm due any day now. I needed to pass some time and I saw this store on my way home. I stopped in and oh man does this store need a major makeover. First off the store is very very disorganized, everything is packed every which way and jammed into corners in piles. Nothing is organized. Secondly the items are way over priced for the quality and many items are very used. The clothing prices for things like Carter's is at retail prices for very used items. Lastly when I was in, the man working there was obviously clueless. A new mom was asking how a certain product worked and the guy had no idea how it worked.How this place is still in business is beyond me. I will not be back.

Yuck!

Prices are too high and most clothing that I saw was in fair condition. Overall, the store seemed dirty and everything packed tightly together. Unpleasant experience.

I love this place! I have been there a handful of times and drive by it all the time. I love that they put stuff out in the front of the building so i can see it when i drive by. If i see something i like and dont have all the cash on me, they will let you pay a certain portion to hold it and then pay the rest when you come to pick it up. I did that with a water/sand table i got from them. They do have a lot of stuff and it may seem a bit crowded but they just need a bigger store! I love the selection of outdoor toys, clothes and must haves like cribs and high chairs. It's really great for people that dont have a lot of money to spend when they are having a new baby. I dont know what i would have done without hand me downs. and i see a lot of people complaining about certain defects but go shop at a store with brand new stuff. Why are you shopping resale when your expecting things to look brand new? i dont get it. I love this place and im glad i live and work so close.

Will never go there again!

Horrible place to do business at. The lady was very rude and yelled at my kids for looking at things. She took forever and had no idea what she was doing. The amount on money you make off your things is a joke. They are way overpriced. You could get those things for that price brand new. Place is a rip off and very rude staff.

We apologize you had an unpleasant experience. We will continue to strive for better customer service in the future. As for pricing, we do typically offer items nearly 50% off retail, and sometimes up to 80% off, but occasionally there may be items that you feel are overpriced due to fluctuating retail or clearance prices. We do carry clothing, toys, books, and hair accessories staring at only $1. As we deal with 100s if not 1000s of items, it is very difficult to maintain 'fair' pricing on everything. To make an accusation that we make way too much on our sold items is simply a misunderstanding as we pay out our consignors 40% of what the items sell for which is standard practice for consignment shops.

I love this store! Great selection, helpful staff and fair prices. Each time I go in the products change so I always have new, fun things to look through. I send all my friends in!

I do not recommend this store....

I do not recommend this store. I have seen the employees numerous times at local mom sales buying items and then they take them to their store and sell them for double! The point of resale shops and mom sales are to save money and they seem to be taking advantage. I dont see how you can run a business this way.

Michelle, We are sorry that you do not agree with the way we go about finding inventory for our store. We do have a Wish List in place where customers can inform us of items they are looking for and we do go out of our way to locate these items. As we are a business, we do have to turn a profit as we have costs such as rent, consignment payouts, utilities, property taxes and such. Our wish list service is very popular as we do the work to find items at significant discounts. This is an important service we offer, and like all other businesses, we do have to markup our items. This is how business works. It is also a fact that you can save up to 80% on items in our store, and if that was not the case, we would not be growing as quickly and be as successful as we are.

I give Mommies Must Haves one-star merely because I cannot give it zero. The clothing in the store are very, very old and in decent to poor condition (dirty, stains etc) and are ridiculously overpriced. The toys are no better - most are dirty, incredibly worn and missing pieces. You can buy the NEW version of these toys for just a few dollars more than MMH's dingy old ones. I have no idea how this place remains in business, as the prices are so outrageous and the quality is so low. I HIGHLY recommend Baby Baby in Northville, or Restyle Child in Birmingham - you get HIGH QUALITY items at prices you would expect at a resale shop (example: new season Gymboree, Oilily, Janie and Jack, mini Boden , Keen and Hanna Anderson for $3-$15). I will not be going to Mommies Must Haves EVER again!!!

I absolutely LOVE this place!!...

I absolutely LOVE this place!!! I recently bought my son three pairs of designer jeans and a jumpsuit for only $15. That was my third trip there. My son has grown very quickly (as most babies do) and I love the fact that I can run up there to grab him a couple of key clothing items that don't break the bank. I tell EVERY mommy I know about this place because I think it's rediculous to spend hundreds of dollars every few months to keep up with children's growth. They are located in a central location so my Detroit, Farmington, Novi, Livonia and Bloomfield friends can all go. The clerk is so nice and I will definitely be back soon...I'm sure very soon because my soon is quite tall for his age :-)



I read the other reviews and if you walk out of the store with stained clothes, clearly you can see how easy it is miss a couple of details. Their 3 day exchange policy is more than reasonable!!! $30 for a walker is more than a good deal!!! No matter what year it is, if it's in great shape then it's a steal. If you don't like it, don't buy it. But there is plenty to pick from there!!!
