Shopping in Danish House
The introduction
Hello everyone, in this article I want to tell you about this shopping place in Tbilisi, called Danish House. It is a very popular place to shop for houseware, mostly. There are many things to buy there, which are very important for your home and yourself. I have known about this Danish House for a long time now and I remember some years ago, when my mother used to go to the Danish House to buy some things there, however, it was not that easy to get there, because we didn’t use to live in Tbilisi and this Danish House was there , in the capital of Georgia and that place was not that easily accessible by car, either, I mean, you had to drive all the way to Tsereteli avenue and then a little bit farther to get to the Danish House. And I remember, that it was not very large store then and they didn’t really have too much of a choice as they have it now. However, my mother loved going there and looking at things and shopping there and we would visit the Danish House once in a while for that.
About the Danish House
It’s said, that the Danaish House was opened in March 2012 in Georgia and since then it has grown and added some stores all around the city, while going out of the capital of Georgia, too, and added some branches in Kutaisi and Batumi, Gori, Telavi, Marneuli, Rustavi, Zugdidi.
They also have their web page on internet www.danishhouse.ge, where you can get information about them, as well as buy some products online and by doing that, you can collect some points and then exchange those points to some of their products, too, so that it’s a pretty good deal, especially if you don’t want to waste your time going outside and visiting their stores and choosing some things there and then buying them and taking them home. Instead, you can buy those things online and they will get it to your home.
You can even find the Danish House online on facebook, you just have to look for daniurisaxli. It’s a really good web page, because they have all their news there and they update the information almost every day, because they have some great sales almost every day and they upload pictures of those products which they have on sale those days, so that the people wanting to buy things there can know, what they can find in the stores on sale and what those things cost, etc. I always check their web page, because there are some good products, that they have and when there’s a sale, I can go and buy some things, that I need. For example, once I bought this bed cover with a pretty reasonable price on sale and I just love it. And there are many things, that I have bought on sale from them and none of them seem to have any problem or something like that.
Well, if you want to visit the Danish House stores in Tbilisi, there are three branches of them throughout the city and all of them have working hours from 11 a.m. till 9 p.m., so that it’s really accessible, because people leave their works in the evening and while they can get to one of the branches, it gets late evening and they can still manage to get to the Danish House stores by 9 p.m., I guess.
So, there were only two branches of the Danish House in Tbilisi until just recently, when they added a new one in Gldani Plaza. I don’t really visit that place, because it’s pretty far from my home, however, there should have been one there, because it was really uncomfortable for people living there going all the way to Aghmashenebeli avenue or Kostava street to shop in the Danish House.
Well, the very first branch of the Danish House was on Aghmashenebeli street 154, as I know, and it’s not very easy to get to for me, if you want to know the truth, because it’s not very near to any metro station and the bus, that goes there, is not going from my place or something like that. However, buses, which go to Station Square, usually go to that place, too, and there’s a bus stop just in front of this Danish House, so that if you go there by bus, you will just get out of it in front of that store. You can go there by 92 bus and it will stop just right there.
Another branch of the Danish House is just nearby the Technical metro station and it’s located on Kostava street no.70. I really like visiting this place, because it’s just nearby the metro station and I usually use metro, so that it’s pretty easy for me to get there. You just have to cross the road and there you are, in front of the Danish House. It’s a pretty large store, I must say, and they have everything very well organized there. You can even get there by buses or microbuses. For example, you can take bus no.150 from Rustaveli avenue and get out in front of the Sports Palace, where the Technical metro station is located, too, and then cross the road to get to the Danish House.
Buying online
Well, when you go to the Danish House web page, which is www.danishhouse.ge, there you can see all the products, which you can buy online and you can see all of them and decide, which one you want to buy. Then you click on the product, where you can see the details of the product and you can read the description. After you have decided to buy that product, you can add it to your shopping cart. You can then either continue shopping and choose another product, too, or you can just click on your shopping cart and see the details of your desired purchases and see the price and then choose to buy those products.
After that, there will be a new window, telling you to register. You should read the rules carefully and then click “next”. You will have to fill in the gaps your name, surname, mobile phone number, ID number, the address and things like that and then you click on “Update”.
After that you should confirm your purchase.
Then you will have to choose the payment method. Mostly people choose to pay by credit card or debit card. You click on that thing and then you have to fill in the card information, such as, the card number, the name of the card holder, its expiration date and CCV and then fill in the gap that one time code, that appears down to all those things and click on the green button there. After that, there will be a new window, saying , that your purchase has been successfully confirmed.
Then you just have to wait for the currier to get your purchase to you.
The products
Well, they have many products in Danish House. And the prices are reasonable, however, they can be a little expensive comparing to some other stores like that, I must say. But, you should take into account, that it’s not in vain, that the prices are a little bit high, because the quality of the products is high, too. So, it’s kind of a compensatory thing, that the price is a little high and the quality is good, too.
So, first of all, they have lots of plates and glasses and stuff like that in the Danish House stores, and they are all different and very beautiful and you will want to have them all at home. You will find all those different things, plates made with plastic, ceramic ones, transparent ones, etc. and so are the glasses and cups, too. There are also many thermal cups, which people find very useful nowadays. Sometimes they have sales on those things and you can visit the Danish House store at that time and shop for that stuff there.
You can also see other kitchenware and all those saucepans and frying pans all in different sizes and quality and prices. They really have great variety of those things and the quality is pretty great, so that if you want to buy some good saucepans or frying pans, you can visit the Danish House. And they also have sales on those stuff some time, so that you can buy them on sale, if you don’t want to pay too much in them. Though the quality is not as high, as the others would have, however, it’s not bad and those saucepans and frying pans are doing just great, which I have bought on sales in Danish House some time ago.
They also have many kitchen gadgets, which are really useful in the kitchen and when you see them, you will understand, that you really need them at home, so that you will decide to buy all of them, or most of them, maybe, because all of them are useful. There are spatulas and bottle openers and shredders and things like that.
There are many plastic things, such as containers, plates, cups and others. The containers are really worth buying, because they are really useful in everything, and, besides, I use them to store food in the refrigerator, so that I really need them at home.
You will also find textile in Danish House. There’s a variety of textile there. You can see different pillows and bed covers and sheets, etc. They are pretty good and I have bought many things from them like that. For example, we have their pillows and bed covers and sheets and rugs and things like that. Some of them we bought on sale and we really like them, so that I recommend them to anyone. I must say, that the prices of those things are not cheap and that’s why I like buying things like that when they have some sales, however, they mostly have sales on rugs, which I have bought already and now I don’t really need any more of them, however, they are pretty good ones and I use them a lot.
Well, there are also some shoes sold in the Danish House stores and they are pretty good, too. And they usually have some discounts on sneakers and keds, which are pretty useful for some occasions, like going out of the city or going on tour on hiking or something like that. The prices are pretty cheap for that thing and that’s why I’m saying that.
There are also some bathroom things in Danish House, which are really good things. You can see some rugs and soap dispensers and curtains and clothes holders and things like that. They don’t cost much and they are beautiful ones, so that you can buy those things there.
They also have some hotel stuff, I mean, those small soaps and slippers and sheets and washcloth and other stuff, which you find pretty useful for your hotel or if you just like having such stuff at home.
And, of course, there are some New Year and Christmas thingssold there during the season and they have some great things then. It’s like you won’t decide which one to buy, because all of them are very lovely and beautiful. And just like the Christmas and New Year season, they also have the seasonal stuff in the summer, when people go to the seaside and they need some seaside stuff there, you can see many things needed for the seaside during the season in the summer.
If you visit the Danish House store, which is located on Aghmashenebeli avenue, there you will find some travelling bags, too, for your baggage and there are some handbags and backpacks, too, so that if you need some things like that, you can visit that store and choose from the stuff offered there. The prices are alright and the products vary, so that you can choose between those different things and pay a normal price, so that you won’t need to look for those bags or backpacks or handbags some other places, however, I must say, that there are not many handbags or backpacks there comparing to those large luggage bags, so that, you might not find your desired handbag or backpack in that Danish House store.
The other things, that you can find in the Danish House stores are tables and chairs and all the other kind of furniture. The prices of the furniture is really not very expensive and, besides, the quality is pretty good, too, as I have already mentioned. You can find there some good coaches, which are sometimes on sale and you can buy them even in less price, which is really acceptable. They also have some standing mirrors on sale and they have some clothes’ hangers on sale from time to time. They have some beds, too, and the wardrobes and computer desks and journal tables and puffs and other stuff. I remember, that we bought some chairs there and they are pretty good ones and though we have them for a couple of years now, they haven’t changed and they are still the same considering the daily usage of them.
The payment method
Well, you won’t really need any cash with you when shopping in the Danish House stores, because you can just easily pay by your credit or debit card without even noticing, that you are spending some money. And if you don’t wish to pay by your card, then, of course, you can use some cash. But I usually pay by card for everything and it’s more comfortable and easy, I must say, so that I pretty much recommend paying by credit or debit card to people.
I must also tell you, that no matter where you are and where you buy things, you should always wait for the receipt and check it, because accidents happen and people make mistakes, and you don’t have to pay for others’ mistakes. When you check the receipt and everything’s fine, that’s just great, however, if there’s some mistake and you find it just nearby the cashier, then it’s easier to solve any problems and correct the mistakes. There are some people, who find out, that they have paid more, than they had to, so that they go to the store and argue and things like that. And when you find anything right in the store until leaving it, it’s more comfortable for you to tell them about the mistake and everything will end just fine.
Anyways, going to the Danish House stores and buying things there is pretty much comfortable in all. And it’s even more comfortable, when you can see things online and read their description and know, when they have some sales and on which products and you can even see the prices of those things, than walking around some shops and looking at things and deciding, what to do and buy them or not. So, that’s why I like shopping in the Danish House stores, and, I guess, that’s why other people like it, too. I really recommend shopping in the Danish House stores and until you go for shopping there, you should definitely check their facebook web site and see, what they have to offer you that day, because then you will know what to look for and what you can find on sale there. It’s really easier that way and more comfortable, if you ask me.
