I had never experienced a co-working space like this before! There are plenty of rooms available and the staff is helpful.Although I am not in Chicago often, I would think a membership here would be a worthwhile investment.

Extremely unprofessional staff. Went here for a tour and spoke with multiple staff members at 1871 who said would provide follow up information on how to become involved. 2 months and over 50 emails later to 10 different people can't even take the time to send a response back. Recommend finding another co-working space or working elsewhere. Save your money/time.

Unlike any other workspace I have ever seen. Bring your ear buds; it gets noisy.

1871 is by far the best coworking space in the city. The facilities are nice, spacious, and full of conference rooms. The staff is spectacular, helpful, and friendly. Ability to quickly meet with mentors and in-facility VC firms is an incredible boon to startup life as well.

What other people have said is true. The space is full of people full of so-so ideas (mostly poorly thought out mobile apps) created by non-technical people looking for technical people to do all the work for them. The co-working space is crowded and noisy and it's hard to get any work done.

I attended several events here including the Chibuys Winter Tasting. The awesome thing about the event is that 1871 partnered up with minority and women owned food vendors across Chicago. There were samples of many different foods that were delicious, and I was able to discover some new vendors that I was not aware of.

I've been to 1871 only a few times, but I've loved it every time. This is probably one of the first incubators that most people learn about, and it will continue to be one of the best.
