I don’t know how good they are in reality but as soon as they know i am not buying in bulk they already hang up on me when i call them.

After the associate refused to help my wife get a piece of wood the woman in the shop accused me of damaging a box that was open that I told her I was interested in purchasing. Screamed at me and my wife that she was pms’ing and that I need to get out of her store. Awful place, I will never return. Would have been a $ 1000 a week customer as we have a toy making business that uses exclusively high end wood. This is one small businesses that I would not be sad to see the owner loose ther business and house for the way my wife, my children and myself were treated. Pms is not an excuse!

I don’t know why they list their hours until 6 pm. They close 15 minutes early by policy, so come early! However they saw me standing outside and let me in anyways, which is nice because I just needed to look around quickly.
Prices are high for some woods, but they have one of the best selections in town, imported hardwoods that can be hard to find. Some exotic woods I found surprisingly affordable, like padauk.

The wood there is a good selection. But the service is terrible. Do not ask for help, they will not help you. It is a pick your stuff and bring it to the register kind of store. For a local store intended for wood workers you would expect much better sense of community but that is not the case. It is the same service you get at the gas station.

I assume that if I were a carpenter or contractor, my review would be very different, but I am not, so its 2 stars. I went to the store to try to find some trim for various parts of my house but received such bad customer service (as in, worse than none) that I never figured out if they carried exactly what I wanted.
Again, probably a great resource if you know exactly what you want and what are you doing, go somewhere else if you want any substantive assistance.

The guys there are very helpful, They will take the time to give you a detailed answer to every question you ask. Unfortunately that can mean waiting a bit until they are finished. Bowdy (sp?) taught me qualities of an unfamiliar hardwood & was very helpful. He also showed me (at the cellular level) the difference between red oak & white oak. They loose one star because they don’t have the selection or pricing of the other place that’s out in the (#$%^) suburbs

As a professional woodworker, this place serves me well. If I need something in a pinch, they usually have it. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the location makes up for their prices. Like I said, in a pinch.

Absolutely horrendous customer service.
There can be three people up front, not a single customer in the store, and when you ask for some help they give you a dirty look.
Answers to any questions are in short bursts.
They make sure to tell you to be out of the store by closing and won’t let anyone in 15 minutes before.
They’ll tell you they can’t make a cut to an exact measurement (+/​-​an inch).
There’s more specific examples, but I’m not going to write a book on it. The bottom line is that the other bad reviews are pretty much on the money.
They do deserve one star for having some trim/​wood that Home Depot or Menards doesn’t.

Most beautiful wood on earth.
Purpleheart wood, African rose wood… you can get definitely get the most exotic wood here!
Only one star off because it is not in a convenient location.

Horrible service. Cheap quality wood. You get better service and better plywood at big box stores, and we all know that those places suck too… Don’t even bother going there, waste of time and money.

This place ROCKS!!! I actually work for a competitor of theirs, but I build historical furniture as a personal hobby.
I buy all my exotic hardwoods there like Sapele Mahogany, Maple, Wenge, etc…
Even though I am the competition, they have always treated me fair, were very helpful, and willing to cut what I needed when I needed. I compared their prices and they are equal to, if not cheaper than the other places in the area (Owl or Heidler).
If you need hardwoods, this is the place to go.
They are also, I believe, the only Festool dealer in the City of Chicago.
Five Stars from me across the board!!!

I’m not going to lie.. . my inner adolescent always chuckles a little when I think of the name Wood World. There, I feel better getting that off of my chest.
I’m a hobbyist woodworker and while you can get plenty of passable (read: mediocre but fine) lumber at the local Home Depot, you can’t really find the good stuff there.
Which brings us to Wood World. This place is great, there’s a couple cats running around (apparently they just wandered in one day and they keep the mouse population down), the staff is super chill, and you can find everything from a nice piece of yellow pine to exotic zebra wood.
If you just want to walk in and out with a pre packaged shrink wrapped piece of lumber, this is not the place for you. If you’re willing to look around until you find just the right piece.. .well you’re in business.
