I have been to this store twice since it opened in my town. The first visit was pleasant with seemingly quality products. The second visit not so much.
The wooden shower mat I got they stacked them on top of each other so it had glue and stuff from the one stacked on top of it, the rubber pieces that is used to safe guard the floor stained the top of the wood on the piece I purchased.
Then the pillows I purchased, brought those home and one of them has a 3 inch rip which I didn’t notice until 5 days after purchase so now I have to sew that. For the prices they sell their items at, I shouldn’t be dealing with this at all.

Review for HomeGoods – Laurel, MD (August 25, 2025, 12:30 PM)
My experience at the Laurel, MD HomeGoods on Monday, August 25th at 12:30 PM was shockingly poor. I was assisted by the Assistant Store Manager, Veda, whose rude, dismissive, and unprofessional behavior was appalling. As a loyal HomeGoods customer who spent $600–$800 at this location the prior week and over $1,000 at nearby locations, I was stunned by the lack of basic courtesy.
From the start, Veda offered no greeting and carried an annoyed, impatient attitude. I came in to return four items with a valid receipt, but instead of helping, she immediately looked for reasons to deny my return. She repeatedly stated: “The description is not for these items,” and when I asked her to clarify, she refused, saying: “I’m not going to tell you that” and “I don’t have to.” This is completely unlike any other HomeGoods experience I’ve had, where employees clearly explain receipt discrepancies and process returns efficiently.
When processing the remaining two items, Veda again checked the system and incorrectly claimed one item was not on my receipt. When I corrected her, she responded only with a dismissive “Oh.” She even attempted to break open a sealed box to inspect its contents, despite the box clearly being unopened. The entire interaction was unnecessarily hostile, rushed, and unprofessional.
I later called another HomeGoods location. The manager there reviewed the department numbers, confirmed the items matched, and processed my return immediately, highlighting the stark contrast in customer service. Before driving 45 minutes, I returned to Laurel to ask Veda for her full name and title. Again, she was dismissive, refusing to provide complete information and saying: “You are the one with the nasty attitude. I do not care how much money you spent at this location.”
This behavior reflects poorly on both Veda and the store’s management. Good customer service requires patience, communication, and a willingness to resolve legitimate issues—all of which were completely absent. I contacted HomeGoods Customer Service the following day; the representative apologized, documented my complaint, and promised a call from store or regional management within 24–48 hours. As of September 3, 2025, I have received zero follow-up.
It is alarming that this is not an isolated incident; multiple reviews confirm Veda has treated other customers similarly. Laurel HomeGoods management should understand that experiences like this drive away loyal customers. I deserve a formal apology, but I will never return to this location and will actively discourage clients from shopping there.
This is a clear reminder that good customer service is not optional—it is essential for maintaining trust, loyalty, and a positive reputation. Buyer beware: I gave Laurel HomeGoods time to address my concerns, but they failed. Check the reviews—Veda is a recurring problem, and management seems unbothered by her behavior.

HomeGoods Return Policy is Trash
I tried to return a brand new, unused, with the original receipt in hand rug to HomeGoods. They refused the return because the hand tag wasn’t included. Not attached. Just present. A piece of cardboard, mind you, that most people toss the moment they get home.
So let me get this straight: I have the rug, the receipt, and it’s in perfect condition but because I didn’t save a random tag that serves no purpose after purchase, I’m out of luck?
This policy is beyond unreasonable. It’s not about protecting the store from fraud it’s about making returns as difficult as possible. Rugs aren’t impulse buys. They’re big-ticket items you need to see in your space. But HomeGoods acts like you’re trying to scam them if you don’t keep every scrap of packaging.
I won’t be shopping here again. If you value flexibility or basic customer service, take your business somewhere that respects common sense.

Hour wait to check out Their check out system is insane
Their check out system is insane. Every-time I come the wait is over an hour to check out. Such poor management. I have vowed never to come back. Has the management ever even noticed how many people come in see the line & take their business elsewhere. This is the Flower Mound store by Long Prairie Rd. I hope someone in higher management can fix this. It appears they have no respect for their customers time & assume people will just put up with the long, long wait!! Get more help & stop abusing your customers or you won’t have any!!!

very pushy about their credit card
Consistently harassed about signing up for their credit card. Literally EVERY time I shop which makes me not want to go in. EVER. Today despite me literally stating I do not want a credit card, she kept going. I told her I don't need a card charging 20+% interest and she again, kept pushing. Finally told her I haven't had a credit card in over 25 years and was absolutely not interested and thankfully was fully checked out so I could walk away. I do not have this issue in the local TJ Maxx, nor did I ever have this kind of consistent pushing of a credit card in the last state I lived in. Tried to call corporate and of course, 'office closed'.

Halloween overload in mid-July
It is mid-July. We went to our local HomeGoods in search of a travel neck pillow thinking we would surely find one there. But no. The entire store - I mean from front to back - was stocked with Halloween merchandise. Do you need a skeleton soap dispenser? No problem! HomeGoods has it! Do you need pumpkin bath towels? Not a problem at this HomeGoods! How about a witches platter? Dozens of those! This store is a joke. Seriously, the buyer for this store should lose his or her job. There was so much Halloween merchandise, we truly felt as though we were in a bad horror movie. There wasn't room for it all. I don't know about y'all, but it was just too much. We're not at all opposed to Halloween merchandise, but please - in the proper amounts and at the proper time.
