Reviews mention

  • Smooth-writing gel pens

  • Calming in-store atmosphere
  • Boxy apparel fits
  • Occasional pen smudging
  • Inconsistent clothing quality
  • Flimsy cleaning tools

Muji earns strong reviews as a minimalist one‑stop shop that works well for stationery, storage, and home basics—its 0.36–0.5 gel pens, notebooks, diffusers, and modular organizers draw consistent praise for smooth performance, thoughtful design, and longevity. Reviews also flag drawbacks: clothing can fit boxy or feel mid‑quality, some items (especially certain home goods) feel overpriced, pens may smudge or skip, and online selection/UX lags, making in‑store experiences distinctly better.

  • Really quality products at reasonable prices. I just wish they had more stores across the US.

  • The store is so much fun. Really great essentials for travel and home

  • Very random review probably, but the Muji right angle socks are the greatest socks in all of the universe.

  • affordable, basic yet stylist things in so many categories! i especially love their linen clothing and notebooks. the clothes in particular last forever if you take care of the pieces well. the pricing is super reasonable. the materials are all nice. i love stopping into the store and always find something worth picking up. have never regretted a purchase!

  • Muji is hands down the best. Tastemaker and staple-creator extraordinaire. Makes great gifts of treats for yourself. Their pens are best in class!

  • Longtime MUJI customer. Aside from their A++ rollerball pens, I really enjoy their homeware products - especially anything made from the stainless steel or glasses. Affordable and long lasting.

  • respectfully, i don’t get the hype. very expensive for everyday basics/essentials in regards to home goods, clothing, beauty etc. quality pillows though!

  • I always feel fancy stepping into a muji. Like a mix between ikea and uniqlo, but with added ambiance. Sometimes they play little songs in the store that make you feel like you're on a pirate ship.

  • The best!!! Honestly. What don’t they have? Great quality and great everything. What couldn’t you like about Muji

  • Love their inexpensive pens and spiral notebooks! I don’t really pay attention to much else there, to be honest.

  • i like how simple all of the products are. the pens are great to stock up on, especially the .3 blue nibs. recently i've especially been loving their boyshorts, which are simple and breathable.

  • Love the stationary! The pens and notebooks are so much fun

  • Muji is my go to for home and stationary supplies. I could not recommend the 0.5 and 0.38 ballpoint pens more - smooth and satisfying to write with. I've been using them since 2014, and haven't stopped. They're refillable, so you don't even need to buy new pens. Otherwise, I also love their home storage containers as well as dishes/wood cutlery. Great for aesthetics but also practical. What I miss the most about living in Asia is being able to go to any brick and mortar Muji store to browse. In the US, you'll most likely need to use the website. If you have the chance, try out their Yuzu Fruit Spread either on toast or in hot/ice tea!

  • Reallllllly good quality! Great pens!!!! Cute clothing and accessories. I love the travel accessories!

  • The best pens in the world, among 1000 other fab things. I miss their US locations but loved visiting the stores in Japan!

  • I have ALWAYS loved Muji as a brand. Great quality products at reasonable prices. I’m a huge fan of their travel bottle range & their refillable gel ink pens. I’ve been using Muji travel bottles for about 14years now & I travel A LOT! I still have some of the original bottles I bought when I first discovered that Muji sold them. Unfortunately I no longer live close to a Muji store but their website & online ordering are very easy to use. All in all an extremely positive experience from a brand I would highly recommend.

    Feedback

    To be honest Muji have already made the change I would have suggested re their bottle tops. Great brand for people who like simplicity & classic styling.

  • Authentic, clean, minimalist branding. Their products are incredibly thoughtful and made without waste. I love some of the household supplies, pens/notepads and storage blocks.

  • I love Muji! I own a few basic shirts from this store and the quality is beyond my expectations. Also, the cuts are super simple yet interesting and I always receive many compliments when wearing them. Anytime I visit the store I spend a lot of time in it thinking of how can I rearrange my life around in order to become even more sustainable. It's definitely a highly recommended brand!

  • Buying online and in store for this brand is amazing. If you can make it to a store it is an amazing shopping experience. Muji is perfect for minimalist needs. I love that I can get so many matching pieces here and small organizational pieces. the pens they sell are also NEXT LEVEL. Cant recommend enough. Shopping on the website can be a bit glitchy but overall is an easy experience if you know what you are looking for.
