Well when it comes to knowledge Im heading str8 for Drake. He is super helpful, he knows so so very much about weight, needle size, max amount of fabric to punch through. I have not yet had a bad experience with anyone on the staff. Its a small cute little shop, but it is packed with all kinds of sewing machines, vacuums, fabric, accessories.

Took my sewing machine in to get serviced and they called within 2 days to day it was complete.When I went to pick it up the gentleman helped me to my car carrying the machine for me. I am very capable of doing this myself, but it was a wonderful gesture.

I wasnt sure which fabrics would look the best for my project. The lady in the fabric dept. was very helpful and pulled out many different fabrics for me to check out. I waited until the next day to go back and make my purchase. I needed to mull over which ones I wanted to purchase for my project. Very happy with the help I got and the choices I made.

I recently purchased a new vacuum from J&R and its been humming along perfectly. The expert recommendation and experience of Mike helped the final purchase decision. Mike was happy to show all options of every vacuum available with demonstrations and insight. Mike knows his stuff. Mike was able to show off how the vacuums sold at J&R are vastly superior to models sold at the big box retailers.See Mike and the staff at J&R so they can show you how you can have the cleanest carpets and therefore cleaner air with reduced allergens. My vacuum has already helped my indoor allergies! Trust me when I say the allergies I have are not cool and the new Riccar vacuum has already helped. My vacuum meets HEPA filtration standards of 99.97% efficiency at .3 microns. For scale, .3 microns is bacteria, .4 microns is mold spores, .5 microns is dust mite protein, 1 micron is cat dander, 2 microns is household dirt and 10 microns is pollen.Ask Mike for an in-person demonstration on any of their products. Dont forget to ask Mike about the shoe trick and the roller trick with the Riccar vacuum series.Tons of features and the ability to get your home professionally cleaned each time you vacuum.Thanks to Mike for the expert service and knowledge making the J&R visit a top-notch experience.

Stopped in J&R Vacuum on 12/19 to pick up some fabric to finish a tshirt quilt. The staff are always so friendly. The gal working came and asked if I needed help finding anything. She worked with me until I found the perfect fabric to go with my project. Thank you for great customer service

Having decided to replace my sewing machine I ventured into J&R on Saturday. My last machine purchase was made long ago after graduating college and I had no idea what to look for. Cindy kindly gave me lots of great information and showed me features of the various machines. Talking with her helped me focus on my sewing needs and gave me a place to start my research. Needless to say her assistance led me to the perfect machine; I was at the store on Monday morning. I am so happy to have made my purchase AND a new friend and sewing mentor. Great service, nice people!

Karen and Nancy spent a lot of time showing us the features of the Creative Icon and Cindy spent a lot of time with us answering questions. There was no pressure at any time to buy. Cindy has been great at answering questions after our purchase of the machine. We are slowly learning how to use it and we are enjoying it. We just stopped by when we were in town a year later, and they patiently answered some questions and demonstrated an accessory for our machine. Always helpful and friendly.

I have recently taken an edge to edge embroidery class with Nancy, a free-motion class with Amy, brought my moms sewing machine in for service, and bought a vacuum! In each and every case, friendly staff at J&R answered my questions, and helped me make informed decisions. I think what I appreciate the most is J&R helping me grow my sewing skills and keep my creativity alive through inspiring classes, my Pfaff Creative Icon, and a personal approach. Thank you!
