What can one really say? Its Michaels. Great place that always seems to have what I need. Staff was very helpful at this particular store in Wasilla, Alaska.

They are insulting to members of the Deaf/HOA community.And correct you, when you try to talk to them about the issue, as a Deaf/HOA person.

Fantastic place to shop for all things crafty. Excellent customer service and amazing selection. I needed some spray paint and they have it locked up for safety. I didnt have to wait very long at all for an employee to come help me. I also love the member program. Great savings on all kinds of items.

I love shopping at michaels! I only wish they stocked unicorn spit gel stain and glaze and other like products. They are centrally located, prices can be high on certain items but other wise fair.

This store has a decent selection of craft supplies and home decor. Prices range from decent to outrageous. $300.00 for a set of 48 markers for example- those prismacolor ones- unless those markers shoot out diamonds and gold, thats a tad much. Especially when I can get a set of 72 markers of the same brand for $140.00 from Amazon. 😉Most of the staff was friendly and helpful. There was one lady though, who asked if she could help me, so I described to her what I was looking for, and she immediately told me that they didnt have it. Also informing me that they were more of a make-it-yourself store instead of a end product store. I was looking for a specific pendant to make a necklace. 😂She wasnt getting it. Now, being since she was conducting interviews, you would think that she would have a bit more knowledge about the products in the store that she is employed in. I had browsed the Michaels website prior to my arrival at the store and the website told me that the pendant that I was looking for was in stock at that particular store. I politely told the lady that I was just going to continue to look around and see if I could find something else that would work. Now, imagine my surprise when I found not one, but two different types of pendants with the om symbol 🕉️ that I was searching for! as smart as a man came out and I just had to go tap on the window over office and show her and she rolled her eyes in disgust! Can you even believe it. I do wish I caught her name... Next time though... As she was the only employee that I encountered during my visit that was a bit curt and had little product knowledge. The cashier that rang up my items was very friendly and efficient. Not to mention she did an excellent job bagging my items so nothing got smashed or broken. Its a decent place, I would shop there again and I would recommend it to other people.

If youve never been to Michaels it is a craft store. Good prices on materials, art, jewlery, framing... You name it. The check out line always is a wait at this store though but usually not too terribly long so dont be in a hurry.

I dont know why I bother with this place. Their art supply selection is basic. In roughly ten visits since it opened, Ive made one purchase. Ill just go straight to Blaines from now on. Michaels missed an opportunity to corner the art supply market in the Valley, but they have is this second-rate store instead.

I took my wife and daughters there. Im assuming they had the time of their lives since we were there over two hours. They also have classes for kids to learn some arts and crafts things (the classes are held on Saturdays). But if you enjoy arts and crafts then look not further than Michaels.

Hands down one of my favorite stores! if you’re an arts & craft person, or you just love art in general, keep in mind that it will be quite difficult to leave the store empty handed. Some items are a bit high in price, but that’s what sales are for!!! Staff are always helpful and offers great customer service, which is ALWAYS a plus.

Im very disappointed in MichaelsTheyve decided to NO LONGER STOCK POPULAR ITEMS & BRANDS in-store & on-line! LOW OR NO IN-STORE & ON-LINE INVENTORYREDUCING INVENTORY SELECTION IN-STORE!CUSTOMER SERVICE IS A JOKE, from their lack of staff qualified, experienced & knowledgeable in arts and crafts. Lack of staff, making you stand in the checkout line for 30 minutes or longer.Theres so many more things I could say, but Im not writing a book, just a review!

I love Michaels. They have an awesome selection, and the app makes it so easy at checkout to use your earned coupons. So many fun things for kids, and the staff has been so helpful. I walked in at Christmas time with a project, showed it to this younger gentleman working there. He took me to every spot in the store for each item, I checked out..less than 10 minutes! very pleased

Honestly the lady who tried to help us was totally clueless. We walked around with her for a long time and then she insisted they didnt carry what we were looking for. Once she walked away I found what she said they didnt have a few aisles away. I do like the variety of things in the store but knowledgeable employees make a world of difference.

Michaels is a fun place it had so much art supplies for people and for kids or manga lovers it has toys and manga books, for adults they have everything from fabrics to cricket. They have charms and yarn. I hope everyone likes it there.

Love Michaels, but geez some of the prices are as though they are Pier 1. Sales bring these items to a regular price, clearance makes them a sale, lol. But, a great option for the Valley and Alaska, more choices than Joanns, but not better prices.
