Walmart Supercenter

Only in an absolute pinch do I come to Walmart. The only thing I «like» about Walmart is that they have a lot of products you don’t see at other stores, like seen on TV items. Whatever. It doesn’t entice me one bit.
Tonight I was on the hunt for a pillowcase for my son’s school project. No luck. I ran into an employee coming from the back stock area & asked if they had some in the back. She said, «Um. Well. They’re all in the middle area over there. Try finding someone there who can help you.» Awesome. I walk back and by now I’ve already passed up 6, count them-​6 employees who look away, avoiding me so I won’t ask them for help. I arrive to the aisle again and can’t spot an employee nearby. Nada.
I go pay for the other 2 items I grabbed. I told the cashier that I couldn’t find anyone to help me, that their store is horrible with customer service and that it’s impossible to find help. I told him management should be informed. He said, «Mgmt has nothing to do with it. It’s the employees. Yeah, all our employees like to hide, they hide so they don’t help customers. They don’t care. Then we find them and they get fired.» Wow.
I suppose if you don’t care about customer service, this is your place. I will stick to the other competitor & will forever be loyal to the red T. Walmart leaves me no choice.

I’m not necessarily a fan of Walmart and I know a lot of people avoid it. However, I shop at Walmart because it’s affordable for our family’s budget. This location is not the location I shop at the most. It’s smaller than the location on Gosford and it doesn’t carry as much. I also have noticed that the prices are higher at this location. I only come to this location when I’m in a pinch or need to return something. I also don’t make all of my purchases here because of the quality. I usually avoid buying produce and meat at any Walmart. I go to different stores for those items. But, for all other items, including household products and and health and beauty items, you can’t beat their prices.

Douglas an assistant manager at this store would not price match. Said they did not need my money and that I had no idea what I was talking about and then started to confront me. Was going to kick me out. I have worked retail for years this guy is unprofessional. I was matching GameStop on Diablo 3 for Xbox one. It was in stock and said so on the website. I also called and they had it in stock as well. What good is a price match policy if you are going to do everything to prove the valuable customer wrong. Douglas would not even apologize when he found out he was wrong. He needs to take a look in the mirror. His employees will immolate him. I’m sure this is not what the GM would want in there store. All I wanted was an apology so my son could see the way things should be. I will not be back this will be my last purchase.

I used to frequent this Walmart prior to the newer ones built in the SW of Bakersfield. I do not like the remodel they made last year, not sure what they were thinking but to me it didn’t do anything for the store. The did change the layout a bit from what I am used to with Walmarts but not a whole lot.
The shopping experience is all the same as far as products go as well as the customer service. I think what makes this Walmart less attractive for me would be the remodel & layout changes. Maybe I am picky but who knows really. I prefer the one on Gosford!

It’s a typical Wal-​Mart; just a little cleaner than some of the others. This location now has a full grocery area which is really convenient and the prices are low; but it is difficult to find someone to help if you need them. The check out lines move at a good pace and they usually have a good number of them open (unlike others I have been to). Overall, not too bad for a Wal-​Mart.

Has a lot of tweakers on the Dell here parking sucks checkout lines are very slow people here look like they hate their job good prices and never find ammo for the gun there don’t go late at night that’s when their stocking and it’s hard to move around the produce is very good there they do have really good sandwiches

This Walmart is one the most dirtiest, they went through a remodel for what, it is worse… I went in today to do some shopping for a baby shower .I couldn’t even get through the isles, they were so dam cluttered with boxes and pallets everywhere… listen how are we suppose to shop when you can even get by… boxes falling on you… I even seen a old perverted man with his little grandaughter, looking at two ladies buying diapers, drooling with his tongue out, really at least leave the little girl home… discusting bastard, and the service from the workers, where just all in a group talking and joking around, instead of giving us service… I can’t even say cash register lines really long. with only 4 registers open seriouse, I think it starts with management, and supervisors, and I say this because the other walmart on Gosford is a lot cleaner and organize… Listen Management your doing a lousy job !
Sorry but I’m fed up that I can’t even shop at my neighborhood Walmart.

My cart was «stolen «twice.while walking around the corner to look for something. lol. kinda weird .The first time it was empty, the second time there were items in it. they were taken out and placed on some shelf.
Does this mirror the mentality of the average Walmart customer? .
Then I guess I don’t need to become one.

I like this Walmart better than the Gosford one. This store is better organized and after the recent remodeling looks really nice. Still crowded, but have a relaxed feeling. If I have to choose one Walmart in Bakersfield this will be the one.

Most of the people here seem too busy to help customers but then again it is Walmart. I have had better experiences and other Walmarts so I’m not really sure what’s going on with this place. They can really improve on their customer service.

If your in a hurry, Do not come to this Walmart… SLOW SLOW SLOW! not enough registers open. Multi Million Dollar Company doesn’t want to pay to give good customer service. SMH
SHAME on Walmart for being so greedy.

The only way to correct the issues with this Walmart is to quit shopping here.

I have to give this place a higher rating than the average because it is aillion times cleaner than the old Wal-​Mart.
This newly remodeled Wal-​Mart has a grocery store in it and there produce is better than the average grocery store. The clothing section is picked up regularly so you can actually find somewhat of what you are looking for.
We usually shop at Target but when we do shop at Wal-​Mart we can find what we want at a reasonable price & Wal-​Mart doesn’t have the gimmicky gift card scam that Target gets away with.

YOU SUCK!!! You and the other 4 walmart «SUPER CENTERS» have really destroyed this once nice town! All of our nurseries and garden centers are nearly gone (except that clown on Calloway Road doing business as «O.See-em-Bloom») I have NO places to buy good plants for landscape jobs!.. especially in the winter, you have brought in TONS of trash, litter, crime, and unwanted nasty people into our once-​nice country-​like Rosedale community! 4 WALMART SUPER CENTERS IN LESS THEN A 5-​MILE RADIUS (and you want to open a 5^th one) all in our not-​so-​big town… and you sell trashy censored music CDs and other cheaply-​made plastic junk! I guess the reason you corporate jerks decided to come here and really mess this place (Bakersfield) up is that the nicer cities like San Diego and Long Beach (and many other California cities have adopted ordinances preventing Walmart from having more then one «regular-​sized store» per a certain distance, and some cities even banned walmart all together!..(which is what I think Bakersfield should have done 20 years ago!) It is a shame that Walmart has turned this once nice town into pratically a «war-​zone»

I wish I could give them no stars. Their dressing rooms are closed for the next few weeks due to construction. I was told I could bring back anything that doesn’t fit. Not sure how they consider that good customer service.

A filthy store with a filthy parking lot. Some good people shop here, but more weirdos shop here than normal people. The aisles are cluttered, the employees could care less
and its a place I come to infrequently. I have been told to «kiss my ass» by the people checking reciepts when you leave more times at this store than others. I dont like running a gauntlet of idiots to take my purchase to my car after purchasing. And I am pretty sure they don’t like me either.

Ok I’m only giving this a 3 star review because of the great prices. I know they are going through a remodel and will re-​review when it is done.
Walmart is always a low price leader for everything we purchase for our RV, toiletries, paper towels, groceries and electronics.
Their return policy is so easy compared to that other big box store who limits you. Which is ridiculous when you might purchase something that is defective and that isn’t your fault.
I absolutely love Walmart and this store is trying to become a super Walmart. Fingers crossed.

Oops I walked into a big mess. Most unorganized Walmart I had seen, things were piled or dumped no organisation.
I did not see any employee working to clean up the mess.
One had the feeling of like vomiting so it was time to move out to fresh air.
No not this location any more a big black mark.

This place is awful. I was in here the other day and it was just a chaotic mess. Some lady loudly announced in my face that she «keeps burping up chili fries»… Mmmm, that’s what that smell was.

It’s a Walmart. It carries most items you’d expect to find in a department store but at cheaper prices. Admittedly, the items you get are not as high quality or fashion forward as a department store, but they get a bonus for convenience.
I must be honest, before this store recently underwent a major renovation to add significantly to their grocery items I was not a big fan. I don’t know why, but the clientele that shops at this Walmart is significantly different than the clientele that shops at the Target just one block away on Rosedale. Many of the people who shop at Walmart do not do a good job supervising their children while in the store compared to those who shop at Target. In the past, this store was not always kept clean, and very often the merchandise was stocked messily. They seem to have been doing much better in the last six months, so I don’t know if the management has changed, or if the workers are just being better trained.
Honestly, the main reason I shopped at Walmart is that it is open much earlier in the morning than Target. As a teacher who has been known to forget things and have to pick them up on the way to school Walmart is really my only option.
I also give the props on the fact the women’s restroom at Walmart is usually cleaner than the restrooms at Walmart.
Big bonus — I discovered today that Walmart has free wifi for customers to us. Beat that! Well, okay, Target does have a Starbucks and Walmart has a McDonalds (barf) but you can’t have everything.
