If you're new to the island or just moved into your own home and have exhausted your local tiny hardware store or on base supplies then Makeman is the answer!
Makeman is probably best described as a home improvement store, but it's so much more. It's more like an Aladdin's cave for your home with pretty much everything you could ever think of. What amazed us, after comparing to big box stores back home, isn't so much the size but more the selection of products. Back home you'd maybe find 1 variety of gadget or accessory but here they have multiple choices and you will soon find that you'll discover parts you didn't even know you need!
There's several main zones, with a building materials section including lumber yard which they will cut to size for you. There's a large plant section and then inside there's tools, plumbing and garden supplies. I guess you could call that the home improvement half. Then walk into the next "warehouse" and you'll find another massive section that's more home than home improvement with a large 100 yen store, stationary, pet goods, curtains, lighting & a lot more. It's a great place to pick up moving supplies as well if you need those. There's even car accessories & bicycles!
Overall, this is the place to go to when you either have a particular DIY need in mind, or you just want to browse for anything loosely related to your home for inspiration and to discover things you never knew you needed!
