Loods 5

Great store with all kinds of furniture from shops in amsterdam. There around 100? Shops in one big hall. One is able to see lots of different styles. the obly disadvantage is that there is consulting.

I honestly did not see what everyone saw in this place. Dutchman and I could not wait to leave this shop. Price was very economical, but quality I thought was kind of on the cheap side. However don’t let me stop you from entering here, because I am very selective when it comes to home décor. All I needed was a quick glance to know that I was not interested in walking through the entire store.

Can’t I just move into Loods 5?
Isn’t there anything else I need? I’m sure there’s something else I NEED. I love this store. Why have I ever gone to Ikea?
Why, when there’s Loods 5.
We came here recently to look for new beds and new curtains and new inspiration and we didn’t leave before we’d walked for 4 hours inside this magical place.
Great selection of furniture and stuff. Yes, stuff. The set up of everything is pretty. They have a lovely café for those of us who enjoy a cappuccino while shopping or an apple tart before the activity.
The prices are reasonable and have a range — there are higher level items you’re going to pay more for, and nice quality less expensive items.
Overall, this place rules from the door you walk into to the couch you sit on, imagining is in your home.
Enjoy!

This place is awesome!!!
Imagine every great house furnishing or gifty store you know, then put the best of each in one massive warehouse at reduced prices!
Basically, the layout is similar to Ikea, in that you start at one end and are channelled through in one direction past all the different suppliers setups until you reach the check-​out. Each supplier has a space ranging from a small sitting room size to a large RV size filled with their own goods. From what I could tell, each is numbered so when you pay for something at the till a code goes towards the right supplier.
There are bits of furniture, lighting, décor, frames, funny gifts, cushions, etc and sometimes different suppliers in there will have the same thing you saw earlier in your meandering.
Prices are generally cheaper than trendy housey shops and you can even order online with their website. They also have a fair amount of parking, which you’ll need as it’s in the middle of an industrial estate rather than in Zaandam town centre.
I could live in here. sigh. Just need bigger house to fill it with this stuff.
