After an awful experience with another company, the folks at The Bomb Shelter were a godsend! Friendly, professional, and VERY generous in their offer...

Very interesting place. Full of things from my childhood. If in market for or had room, would have bought a car load of items. Prices were reasonable....

This place is strange and cool and fun and historical and just plain rad. Bought some cool stuff in this place. And I love the TV museum.

Coolest, most eclectic mix of things in NE Ohio! It’s a throwback to another era.

Far Out & Groovy - Unique and interesting things everywhere your eyes wander. It's obvious that the owners both love and know what they're doing!

Some beautiful things. Some prices spot on, some not so much. Will not be coming back. Sorry, had such high hopes. ( Workers not very friendly).

Over priced considering many of their items come from scrap yards and are bought for as almost nothing.. then they ask hundreds of dollars for them.

Super fun place to shop for vintage items of all kinds. Large area of industrial salvage, too. I think it's one if Akron's hidden gems!
