Awesome store! They have a wide selection of items, from bath stuff to home decor. The pricing is my favorite thing about the store, everything is VERY cheap. The quality of items is okay but worth the price. The interior is aesthetically pleasing and well organized. I would definitely recommend Daiso, check it out!

Im enjoying visiting Daiso stores in different cities. This location is by far my favorite. Its a bigger store with more cool items. You can never leave empty handed. Both the gentlemen that assisted me at the door and the cashier were very kind and welcoming. This will be my go to Daiso.

This is a great place to shop for this and that type of items, but if I were you Id stay away from their ceramics. They all have labels warning customers of materials that can cause cancer, but the mugs are so so cute. I value my health more because cancer is running rampant with no end in sight!

Daiso is like a magical land of cheaply made but extensively useful household items. And the staff is so nice! So said a friend of mine. And I agree! Theres so much available and all very reasonably priced. Also good snacks. And the most fun and useful little tools you can imagine! Both a great store to buy gifts and get household equipment.

Love this store. It has better stuff than the 99 and over store. Prices are around the same but the quality of items tend to be better. Anywhere from kitchen knick knacks, to pet things, to make up, cell phone accessories. Love it!!!

Great spot for locating odd but useful items and gadgets with exceptionally reasonable prices. Most items are imported from Japan and China. Mostly decent quality. My first choice for office disposables and inexpensive device accessories.

First time in this store . Had so much fun shopping here. They got lots of cute things here . I got like 5 things with Mickey Mouse on it . Im a Disney fan and they got lots of Disney things here . I cant wait to come back and buy some more cool stuff !!

Im addicted to this place. If I have an extra $5 after Trader Joes, I find myself walking out of there with three convenient houseware items, or nic-nacs. Some stuff is broken plastic flotsum in no time. They sometimes have really low priced items youd pay 4x as much for anywhere else - but they tend to evaporate a week later. an Emporium of Planned Obsolescence

Very kind staff. Older guy is very cool and so are all the younger ladies. And lots to look at while still being spacious. At least compared to the Alameda location.

2021-01-07 19:59:19

Well lit, seems clean, spacious.Went on a Tuesday late afternoon, not particularly crowded, and they had one employee monitor and control the number of customers coming in.The store was not fully restocked during my visit, so that was a bit disappointing. I took a while looking for kitchen knives, which turns out to be behind the cashier counters. So know that when you go shopping there.

Not as much selection as the other Daiso weve been to. Store also feels a bit cluttered, but not bad nonetheless. My wife was excited to come here for sure.

Wonderful variety of house hold and food items from Japan. My #1 spot to grab some yakisoba. I never miss a chance to visit every time I’m in Emeryville.

Clean store. They had much of what I was looking for & had even more things that I didnt need but bought anyway. Shelves were full. Merchandise was fronted & presentable. Good customer service at register. Price was right.

On weekends this place is wild ! Long lines lots of children but if you go on a weekday it’s super slow.Always find something I take home and love. The employees were also super friendly /helpful regardless of how busy it can get.

Love this place. My son asked for a Daiso shopping spree for his birthday. His goal was $100, but he walked out with two big bags for $37. I get containers for my bath products through Daiso, too. Mich easier than having to import.

🎊I love the military items 3/1 reasonable combined pkg, carry out, c aimed at utilities, food, Tech pkging. 2nd of all items that can be used to tote, pkg and store anything if your innovative and imaginative. What the saying good thing come in small pkg.🎑The prices are reasonable depending on what it is. Hardly no long line and cashiers are friendly, knowledgeable with speed. 🪙Each store is unique in some items and the same in others.🎎Enjoy and experiment⁉️

Review №23

2020-12-25 01:48:23

Nice, clean, and well organized. Cheapest item is $1.50, and then they have papers/ posters all around the store with the prices from YEN to USD (most items are pre-priced in YEN, so the paper is a good preview of what your item will cost you before tax). They have a variety of items, its pretty much the Japanese dollar store with really cute items.Bad thing about it is that theres almost always a long line outside to get in and you have to wait a bit, but other than that its pretty nice 👌.

Review №24

2018-12-24 00:29:33

I shop here often but they dont always stock the same things I have purchased months before, so the inconsistency bothers me but you cant beat the low prices of certain items. Nice quality paper for drawing at low prices. And some of their home items are really convenient. Found some great gel ball of foot cushions. And the sponges they sell that come in the netting last forever. Highly recommend. They dont stink at all and Ive never had them get moldy.

Review №25

2022-10-23 00:17:49

I called to check about some item but. Thier phone number is alway out of service . Its extremely strange that for the shop as big as that and their phone to be out of service. How do they expect the customers to contact them??? I emailed them & they dont reply

Review №26

2019-05-21 19:08:21

Great location, very organized and not cluttered like many other discount stores; Im always able to find everything here, from snack to household goods. I can spend a lot of time and money here and it is well worth it. You typically only get poorly made items from a dollar store, but at Daiso you get good quality for a price you cant beat. I love Daiso!

Review №27

2022-03-08 01:12:51

The best place to shop for different and unique items comparison to the dollar store and some other reasonable $1 stores.Dasio prices are $1.50 + so be aware.I always enjoy shopping at different Dasio locations all over.

Review №28

2022-09-12 05:04:27

Neat store with alot of gadgets and nitnaks to choose from.Youre bound to find something you need thats useful.I have a DVD collection and Daiso is the only place where I can still find sleeves and albums to put them in.They carry a wide variety of cushion insoles to make shoes more comfortable at a fraction of the prices charged by the big name drugstores.The kids love the Disney activity books and will spend hours coloring and putting the stickers on the pages.Too bad they closed the one on Market Street in Downtown San Francisco.We either have to go to Daly City, S.F. Japantown, El Cerrito or Emeryville to shop when the need arises.

Such a cute store!! it had a little bit of everything. plates, stationary, gardening, snacks, some cosmetics, containers etc. I give it 4 starts because the items didnt have prices anywhere until you had to pay :(

Review №32

2020-10-01 18:01:24

Great place. Note that unmarked items / standard pricing is 1.50, rather than $1, so its a little pricier than some other Daisos, but its still a great shop with good deals. Just the little trinkets add up 😅

Review №33

Not great. A few deals here and there. There are no returns allowed on anything you buy and they dont accept visa/Mastercard. Cash or debit only

Review №37

2021-01-23 14:54:27

Huge store. One of the few stores ive been at that limit number of customers inside (10 at a time), & Im happy they are being safe. Large variety of discount products. Love this chain.

This particular DAISO is very well organized and easy to get around in, most things are convenient to find by yourself but the staff are also extremely helpful and will show you where things are and answer any questions, some are quite knowledgeable of Japanese culture and can explain the products as well. The store is typically well stocked but can sometimes be a bit dusty. Just make sure you ask their return policy, no returns or exchanges!

Review №39

Cant go wrong with Daiso. I do miss some of their older items I wish they would bring those back but cant complain with the rest of what they offer.

Review №40

2021-08-05 23:39:40

Daiso is always a pleasant experience. The prices are low, the store is clean, the customer service is good. There are always interesting and useful things there. The line wait is never too long.

Review №43

2020-07-18 23:31:17

Do not visit this store if you are concerned about your health. No mask requirement, or not enforced. Not enough room to pass by other customers to reach the further cashier. Will not be shopping here again during the pandemic. O stars.

My favorite store shopping for projects, school supplies, cheap good quality house hold and kitchen supplies. Its a one stop shop where you can get almost all that you have in you shopping list under one roof. If you love you car shop here, if you love your bicycle shop here, if you love your garden shop here. More more and more... (photo51)
