No questions asked 90 day return policy on almost anything you buy, even on opened food products. This is especially nice because the bulk nature of the stuff you're buying.Their return policy is unmatched.
Kirkland (Costco generic) product line is very good. The Kirkland salsa is the best store-bought salsa I've ever tasted. The frozen tilapia is excellent. The bedsheets are very good. The toilet paper and paper towels are good. Most of the Kirkland products I have bought seem to be very good quality and reasonably priced.
They treat their employees well. I've talked to multiple Costco employees and it's not uncommon to find people who have been there 10+ years.
Edit: I want to emphasize the importance of the above statement. If a company can be as profitable as Costco is, be competitive in it's pricing, and still treat their employees well, that's good for everybody. It also seems to be a rarity today.
Prices are decent.
Meat dept and the quality of the meat is excellent. One of the best places to buy meat I've ever been to.
Bakery is the best. Their cinnamon buns, bread, muffins, cakes, are all excellent.
