Ross Dress for Less

Came in tonight to hunt for a giftie for one of my neices. On entering the store, I noticed how spacious it is… because the store seems pretty empty. There is A LOT of space between the racks, almost too much, as if there are racks missing. The shelves have the illusion of being stocked, but the selection is pretty limited. The price is what you’d expect at a Ross. The staff were all congregated at the front of the store, I wasn’t greeted until I was on my way out of the store after being unsuccessful in my quest.
An entirely underwhelming experience.

I love this place! If you are a young girl like me and like to find matching stuff for you and your friends, this is the place to go! They have tons of the same things and all in different sizes, which helps since I’m a lot taller and have more muscle than my short and skinny friends. I would recommend this Ross more than the one in Lynnwood. The one in Lynnwood was crowded and kinda ratchet, but the one in LFP is very quiet and has a wider variety. It has lots of things that are cheaper than they would be at a Fred Meyer or a Target. I got soccer shoes there that would be $ 60 at an Adidas store for $ 15. The store is almost like a thrift shop, but it’s the best thrift shop ever if it is one.

A lot less people and very clean. For myself, I actually think I’d find more intriguing buys in a chaotic Ross and will prefer to deal with a busy/​hectic Ross but I’m giving this a 4 star because it is very rare to see one this calm and I want it to maintain a 4 star. It was a very pleasant experience.

Where do you go when you need a new belt because the last one is now way too big? For some reason, I thought Ross just sold womens clothes, but now I know better. Granted, the mens selections are pretty slim, but the prices were great. They had enough belts that I was able to find one and to make it better, the original price was $ 39.95, but the Ross price was $ 9.95. A new belt at a great price! I guess I’ll go back the next time I need something and take a look.

I liked what reviewer Hingdi B. said, «no ghetto feel like some of the other stores.» That was actually my first thought as I was riding the escalator up to the store from the parking lot. I felt like I was going somewhere important having never been to that store before. The last Ross I went to was in Federal Way and there were actual police men there and a heavy presence. Now of course their cameras are everywhere watching your every move, which is important, and unfortunately necessary.
The staff I encountered at the fitting rooms was friendly and helpful. The staff I encountered at check-​out was friendly and quick with me, but was helping someone two people ahead of me in the line who worked there but was off duty and the worker was loudly talking about a keg party. I thought that was interesting conversation for work and that I could hear it so clearly way back in the line.
The sections for Men as well as Home seemed limited than other Ross Dress For Less stores I’ve been to in the past (Federal Way, Lacey, Bellevue, Gresham, etc.). It seemed their store is pretty huge with a lot of open space but as another reviewer mentioned not fully being utilized. There weren’t a lot of people there at Ross and parking was a bit of a problem probably due to the location. All in all, this was a nice, clean store with limited goods for me to peruse. I bought two nice t-​shirts for $ 7.99 each and some measuring cups for $ 2.99.

I’m a fan of Ross so I can’t really give a lower rating but I was greatly disappointed that their escalator was broken the day I happen to park below and I’m with my grandma who can’t do the stairs. I had to have her go out the upper level and drive around to get her. :(They should really consider having it more quickly repaired if that happens again.

It’s a Ross… what can I say? When I need cheap socks… towels… or underwear I hit Ross… so why review this one? Well, this has lately been my GO TO Ross (since it is so conveniently located next to my gym).
It’s pretty damn huge! Lots of open space and it seems like they aren’t utilizing it and allowing for a more open/​comfortable shopping experience. So different than the one by Alderwood Mall that seems to be like a bloody warzone… racks damn near stacked on top of each other.
At first glance you’ll notice how open and clean it is, not cluttered but well organized. Finding what you are looking for is a fairly simply task.
Generally I buy underwear and socks here… but I have come across some good finds in the workout apparel and sometimes even the outerwear sections.
overall… this place satisfies my basic needs…
4 do-​you-​love-​it stars out of 5

This is a really great Ross location unfortunately I think one of their perks may be their undoing. The place is always nearly empty of customers when I’m there, that’s fantastic for my shopping experience but probably not so great for their longevity.
The racks were all well stocked without being stuffed so full that you couldn’t look at anything. It’s also new so it is still pretty darn sparkling clean.
One item I never thought to look for that they had a lot of cool cheap selections: nail polish! It’s not like they have OPI or Essie but they have super cheap box sets of offbrand polish. When you get 5 bottles for $ 6 you can’t really complain if it isn’t very long lasting.

It’s got everything: clothing, shoes & accessories for the whole family, kitchen & bath, even misc furniture. I can even go with the whole family because my hubby heads for the guy gadgets, and my son — toys of course!
The LFP location: This is the best one!!! No crowds here — no Black Friday-​ish frenzied feel. This store is relatively new so the fitting rooms and store looks nice — no ghetto feel like some of the other stores.

This Ross is located to 2 of my favorite places: a library and a bread store. Located in the Lake Forest mall next to the Lake Forest Police Station (talk about mall cops!) there is two levels of parking (recommend the second level where the book store is) and both elevator and escalator access.
This is a new and huge Ross with a wide selection and great prices. It is also a cleaner and more family style Ross then the ones located in downtown and in south Seattle (pick up your aisle SeaTac!). It also boosts a wider furniture selection when I shopped here.

This is probably the cleanest and brightest Ross I have ever visited. Granted, this location has not been open long, but I sure hope that they can keep the tidiness up because it looks really great in here.
Lots of clothing and shoes to choose from. Plenty of great kitchen items and bedding. Clean fitting rooms. Friendly employees.
I came away with a pair of flats and an athletic tee for about $ 25 bucks — good deal.
A good location and a nice addition to the Lake Forest Park Towne Center!
