Having been in the store on Sunset Blvd., I fell in love with Giant Robot almost immediately. I am inspired by the very hip niche products they carry. The atmosphere is fun, and the salespeople friendly. A couple of weeks ago, I decided to check out the GR on Sawtelle. Wow, was I let down. We shopped around for about ten minutes. My friend very nicely asked if there was a restroom she could use. The sales person said no. My friend inquired if there was perhaps a public bathroom in a nearby establishment. The sales person, in a very unkind tone said that she didn't know, because she had never had to use one. Sort of shocking, considering that all we did was very nicely ask about a bathroom. After about five minutes more of browsing the shop, I asked the same salesperson where the other store was located. "Isn't it on La Cienega?" I (incorrectly) inquired. She simply shook her head no and stared at me as if I were interrupting her soap opera. Disappointed, we left immediately. I won't be going back.
Pros: Fun products, great place to shop for gifts.
Cons: Extremely unfriendly sales person.
