Discovered this place on Facebook and looked super unique. Drove a little over an hour with a few family members to get here. It's a cool place with tons of wood for any and all projects. Prices were fairly high... but again we are in times where all wood is in high demand and rather pricey.I did like the mix of old tools and vintage type stuff, but nothing interested me enough to buy. I love old rustic and vintage type things so it'd be neat to see the set up outside of the Christmas season. I originally rated this 3/5 and docked down for customer service and then started to think that maybe my expectations were too high going in? I pictured people welcoming us and asking if we had any projects in mind, if we had been there before or where familiar with the lay out, or if they could help point us in the right direction. Anyway I changed it because I felt docking it down 2 stars was a little harsh based on my expectation vs the actual experience.I found it a bit odd that we had no one around to help out until half way through our shopping experience. Even then the employee just stood up at the front counter.I have worked retail for 16 years and was hoping for more enthusiasm or a unique feel toward this place considering the concept is totally rad. Again, might be cool to train staff to want to see what brings people into the store. Workers were in the far back area hanging out in the office, which I discovered when I went back to use the bathroom. A lady asked me if I worked there since she saw no employees anywhere lol. Just relates back to customer service and what people are looking for or expecting when walking in.If you are looking to work on a project and have set ideas, then this may be your placen or might help inspire you. Hopefully this was just an off day since it was a Monday and nobody is a fan of working Mondays :)Cool concept though and dig the logo. Happy to re-review after thinking more on the concept/ layout/ etc. Hope this helps!

These place is awesome! Looking for a 32x80 4 panel interior door for my 1918 farmhouse. Found doorknobs, plates and inner doorknob mechanism. Still searching for a door but will come back. A genius place that shows a trade that is a lost art can come back to make your home beautiful!

Just found out about this place tonight. Immediately went over there and were nothing but blown away. The smell is amazing. The vast array of available product is even more amazing.Can't wait to replace our Mantle with a piece from them and have it custom clear finished and a few other things done. This is going to be a regular trip for me now that I know it's there. I could probably spend an entire day walking around looking at all the great stuff to use to make things out of.Let me wrap this up by saying that the folks complaining that the prices are too high, are just simply individuals that have an absurdly unrealistic expectation of what it is that they should pay for a product of this nature. Any lumber yard can sell you run of the mill wood for cheap, but that's not why you come to a place like this. You come here because each and every piece has a history, has character, and has a story. You can't just get that anywhere. I priced them out for what it was I wanted to be done and they were actually extremely fair priced. Especially given how trendy the product is in today's market.

My wife and I drove a little over an hour to take a look around and see if anything struck our fancy. We follow them on Facebook and love what they have. However, I must say that we were very disappointed in the high prices for wood. I know we are in a pandemic but the prices are listed as “per linear foot” which is ridiculous expensive. We have a place called Urban Wood Lab right in Racine, WI that is far more reasonable for essentially the same type of slabs. I will say this though they had some pretty cool odds and ends types of things that you can tell were pulled straight from the barns.

If your looking for a place to inspire your creativity this is the place! If your not crafty no problem, they have incredible builders to help make your vision a reality!Not just reclaimed lumber, they have tons reclaimed treasures such as whiskey and wine barrels, stable doors, cabinet hardware, crates, doors, windows,ans, tools, and so much more!The prices are very reasonable and as an added bonus knowing you bought something with some history behind it is priceless!The staff is top shelf and the owner is so always willing to chat and a true professional! The owner seems to know the history about almost every piece. Check it out, you will not be disappointed!

Called about a product line they sell (per manufacture web site) and I got a lecture about how they are purist and would not carry that type of product. Wow, the guy was a bit argent and seemed offended that I would even ask.

I couldn't be happier with my experience with All American Reclaim. I had a fall project of redoing my fireplace and the centerpiece of any fireplace is of course is the mantel. I went in pretty green to what to expect or look for and the team was amazing form the star. From looking and selecting the right wooden beam to the craftsmanship in cutting and brushing it to the amazing final piece was beyond my expectations. This beam was an extremely important piece to our fireplace overhaul and my family could be prouder of it!Thank you All American Reclaim Team!

We drove and hour and a half to come here. It was well worth it!! We bought a hand hewn beam for our fire place mantle and a slap of wood for a desk. They had an outstanding selection of antique and reclaimed items from barns and other items. Paul was an absolute gentleman! So patient, knowledgeable & we arrived an hour before close and he made us feel so free to take our time.. I highly recommend this business and it’s perfect for the designer or anyone looking for those special items to bring out that AUTHENTIC farm house feel.
