REI

Love going to any REI… this location the staff was very friendly and willing to help us find what we needed. Dont have an REI back home so we love coming here to get cool gadgets. This trip we bought a YETI holder to keep our cans cold.

Love REI.
Knowledgeable and friendly staff. New backpack– check
Backpacking stove — check.
Heading to the outdoors — soon

They were super helpful and were able to grant a coupon that I recently received in the mail, but was out of date. I really appreciate it!

Since i always have a soft spot for Colorado. anytime i miss it all i have to do is walk into a REI and the pain goes away :) even tho the Rei’s here are a lot smaller. Now allow me to explain … the clothes sold here can be found inside every little store in a small town Colorado :)

You have to love REI. The people love their job there and it’s the perfect place if you need anything for the outdoors. I bought a few things for my trip to Hasavu Falls and they had everything I needed.

I love REI, it’s just so expensive. Which is the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5. My boyfriend bought me some hiking shoes, which I had no idea there was a science behind the fit and ware of hiking shoes. The employee that helped me literally made me try on 6 am different pairs of shoes, which I’m glad he did because I thought I liked one pair but realized they weren’t going to work. He was so knowledgable and friendly and you could tell he was totally stoked to help us. He explained how if I wear them and decide I don’t like them I can just bring them back and get my money back or exchange for another pair. I thought that was really neat. He explained all the specials and deals and even gave us a couple REI stickers. Everyone when we go in is so friendly.
They also have an awesome chocolate selection that’s all natural and so good. Bacon, potato chips, and marshmallows are just a couple of the ingredients involved with the multiple selections of chocolatey goodness.

REI is my sh*t!
I can spend hours in here and walk out without anything. Seriously. This store is like a Toys R’ Us for Adults.
The workers here are always so helpful, happy and nice!
Really great stuff for the outdoors: Camping, Hiking, Running, Yoga, Climbing, etc.
I love this store!

Always addicted to this store. Prices are always a little steep, but you get the help you’ll need, questions answered and a friendly staff every time. Plus their membership is worth every dime. $ 20 for a lifetime and you get 20% off full priced items a few times a year and 10% back on your dividend. You absolutely can’t go wrong! I would recommend to anyone looking for their outdoor needs!

I love REI! All the employees I talked with at this location were friendly and helpful. If you haven’t already, you should become and REI member, the perks are well worth it!

Recreational Equipment, Inc.
As someone who spends a lot of free time outside, REI is definitely one of my favorite stores. Most people associate this place with camping, but believe me, I’m not a camper and I still find plenty of things here to spend money on for running, hiking, cycling, triathlon, and general fitness.
What I like about REI:
–Amazing return policy: If you’re not 100% satisfied with your purchase, REI will take it back, no questions asked, within one year of purchase. If you bought something from them on-​line and need to exchange or return it, you can do so at any of their stores with a receipt.
Also, if you find an item on-​line to purchase, you can save shipping costs by having it sent to the store where you can pick it up; an e-​mail notice is sent to you when it gets there. I’ve done this many times and items are usually there within 5 days or less.
–Although you don’t need to be a member to shop here, there are benefits to spending $ 20 once for an REI lifetime membership. Reap membership rewards, namely an annual dividend check that equals 10% on purchases. Depending on if you spent a little or a lot the previous year, your check is a nice little bonus either way. I don’t get a check like that from any other store and when it arrives, it’s like Christmas in March. Members also get special deals, as well as discounts on their bike shop services and in-​store classes.
–Classes held at the store on a regular basis include Hands-​on Bike Maintenance. I took this class a few years back and it was a great way to practice changing a flat tire as well as cleaning the chain, when to lube it, what to lube it with, and other basic bike info. Customers bring their own bikes to class and the store mechanics are the teachers. Other class topics can range from backcountry skills, mental prep for triathletes, to preventing running injuries and how to cook with a Dutch oven when camping. Check the store’s website for current class offerings, many of which are free of charge.
–I come here often for what REI calls «energy food.» My go-to’s are Clif and Hammer gels, Hammer HEED electrolyte mix, Jelly Belly Sport Beans, and Honey Stinger waffles. You can get 10% off when you buy 10 or more of items like these as long as they’re not already on sale.
The staff here is extremely helpful and the store is always in great condition. You can shop the sales racks for bargains on clothes, which I usually don’t buy here unless they are on sale. I’m glad this store is located at Boca Park, because it’s convenient for me to get to when I need an item or two before heading out for more fun in the sun.

1^st things 1^st… become an REI lifetime member for only $ 20 bucks and save $ immediately on your 1^st purchase, throughout various times of the year w/​special members-​only sales including Garage Sales, and also receive an annual dividend every Spring! I signed up w/​a friendly and knowledgeable employee named Avi.
This is a big clean well lit and well stocked store w/​many top brand names and REI products. No matter what your outdoor enthusiasm inspires you to visit this store, you will find it here!
It doesn’t matter if you are a novice, or a professional; this store has something here for you!
The service is impeccable. Many of the employees have worked at this location since the store opened several years ago, when next door was The Great Indoors. That was quite a while ago, like 10+ years?! Every employee has personal knowledge of the equipment. They each have their own specialty from personal experience. Truly friendly and down to Earth non commissioned sales people.
Last week I purchased some backpacking gear and new boots, and saved 20% thanks to signing up w/​Avi for my co-​op membership card. Richard was very patient helping me select a pair of really cool Ray Ban sunglasses.
This REI store offers educational monthly seminars and exciting events for members and non members.

This is an awesome REI! My husband and I stopped in to look at shoes for him, and to ask about their garage sales, which we’ve heard a lot about. (All REI’s have a few «garage sales» a year, which is open to REI members — they sell the merchandise that’s been used and returned at spectacular deals.)
The guy working in shoes (super nice, can’t remember his name, but was working on ¹²⁄₂₇ around 6 pm) was more than helpful and recommended a few different minimalist shoes for my husband, and gave us a little more insight into the garage sales. He got my husband a few different shoes to make sure we knew the right size to look for during the garage sale. We felt like he was more focused on my husband’s needs, rather than just trying to make the sale and get our money. That’s a great feeling and for that, we will absolutely be back!
We ended up buying a membership for $ 20 so my husband could go to the garage sale coming up next Sunday. Everyone working had good advice for us regarding what time to get there to make sure he gets a good place in line. He’s really looking forward to coming back on Sunday, and now since we have this lifetime membership, I’m sure REI will be seeing a lot more of us.

Meh. The positives of this review are limited: every employee I came into contact with was friendly and helpful, and the selection of items like carabineers, outdoor gear, and survival tools is better than average. And so ends the positives of this review.
The reality:
) Men’s apparel sizes are limited to S, M, L, and maybe once in a while XL. I require XXL, and I found two items of apparel that actually fit me: 1) a stupid madras-​flannel made in India button down shirt that looked hideous 2) a pullover sweatshirt that was almost too small for being an XXL. Cargo pants were idiotic in their manufacture, resembling lingerie in texture as the material used was almost nylon-​tent instead of cotton, and with virtually no breathing room in the crotch and skin-​tight calves. Again, mostly sizes for young boys, not real men. Prices were outrageously high, even for the simplest t-​shirts (of which there were no t-​shirts in my size).
) A $ 20 loyalty card program where you pay $ 20 and get $ 20 off your purchase and probably discounts thereafter. Really? Yeah, um, for me not so much.
) This store is conveniently located next to parking and restaurants but nowhere near tourist-​populated areas. So, if you are local, have a (lot) of money to spend and don’t need anything above a Large and have a waist size under 32, you’ll really enjoy shopping here! Fail.

I’ve loved REI since Cal days of road trips up to Mt Tamalpais and the relative ease of renting equipment for fly-​by-​the-​seat-​of-​our-​pants camping trips. Years later, my idea of lodging roughing it is more akin to a hotel lacking room service, but REI is still my outdoor sports supply Mecca.
Their membership certainly has privileges and is pretty rad! The points/​$ add up, they even send you reminder snail mail so you use and don’t lose them! I’ve always found the staff super helpful and not up selling, rather assuring needs are met. Prices can be high, but their return policies are awesome. When they have the Semi Annual Garage Sale, I always find hiking gear, a new Camelback bladder, gels or a variety of things I’ll use.
I’m totally a fan, not just for nostalgia purposes, either. When I want quality gear for an ever-​growing list of adrenaline junkie hobbies: I’ll be popping in!

This store is a haven for many outdoor enthusiasts to purchase equipment or to simply kill some time. The company offers great return policies and nearly guarantees 100% satisfaction or your money back! The staff are very knowledgeable about equipment as well as any questions on any local hikes in the Vegas valley. I highly suggest becoming a lifetime member for a mere 20 dollars which offers a 10% annual cash back, invitations or discounts to special events and classes, equipment rentals, and information for upcoming sales just to name a few.
My only dissatisfaction with this place is that it is super pricey than most other stores. However as a member you get access to their used inventory sales where lightly used and returned equipment are sold for cheap.

If you’re a hipster with a Swiss Army knife keychain, a Northface tee, and a stand-​up paddle boarding habit, this may be your favorite store. However, for those of us who merely entertain a seasonal interest in the outdoors, this place wasn’t up to par.
Considering the price point and specialized nature of the products in this store, I expected more in the way of customer service. As in I expected to get some in general but received none. I love combining hiking with water, and was looking into whether it would be worth it to buy my own kayak.
Hung around the kayak section for nearly a half-​hour, checked out prices, looked at straps to transport it, but was never asked if I needed help or had any questions. Kayaks, for those of us who didn’t know, are generally about $ 400 here while stand-​up paddleboards will apparently run you into the quadruple digits. Again, with prices like that, I shouldn’t have to wonder if I can transport such a purchase on my own car, someone should have that info and be interested in sharing it with me.
Did my own research here, and I’ll likely continue to rent as needed rather than purchase, but even if I changed my mind I wouldn’t be inclined to bring my business here.

I came in here for a quick stop to get a water bottle and to look for the Amphipod running waist pack. I got really good service, and I didn’t have to look too far to get it. They even knew exactly what I was looking for and lead me directly to it, instead of just pointing me that way. The atmosphere is really great and the people are very, very friendly.
I think their prices are a little more expensive than online competitors. But, if you have the REI membership ($ 20 for lifetime membership), it MAY pay off in the end.
The place is very clean and organized. The store is big and they have a lot of stuff, which I like, because then you have options.
I did purchase a water bottle, but they didn’t have the Amphipod running waist pack in any other color except black and it was more expensive in store. I totally would come here again though!

All I needed was a got dang CR 1632 battery for my Polar FT4. I went to Target and they had every battery except the one I needed. I certainly found it here!
Upon walking into this awesome store you are greeted, I asked where the battery area is and she took me straight there! Score! It was very nice of her since I have never been to this store, so I didn’t have to get lost. There it was, the battery of my dreams!
I farted around the store for a little to check out other areas. It was nice to be asked by various associates if I was ok and if I needed help finding anything. Super refreshing.
Check out was pretty easy, although the stanchion thing is confusing bc there isn’t any real signage on where to stand so I just followed suit.
Cashiers were super friendly and outgoing, which is a great thing!
Yay!

REI is an amazing store! I wish more stores were run the way REI is run. Here are some of the highlights:
1. The store is beautiful and always spotless. No matter what department you are in, the displays are always stocked and well organized, so you can find whatever you are looking for. If you do need some help, an employee is never more than a few feet away to help you. In fact, you will probably walk out with extra stuff that you found and just had to have because it was so cool!
2. The quality of the items they sell. REI only sells the cream of the crop merchandise. You know you are getting great stuff, be it clothing, sleeping bags, binoculars, or whatever it is you are getting. In fact REI guarantees everything they sell and will accept anything you return, even if is damaged. We have bought all sorts of stuff from here and we have never had a problem with anything. In fact, most of our stuff is still like new, even after a lot of use. Yes, a lot of stuff is expensive, but you will only have to buy it once, so its totally worth it!
3. The staff. The staff here are the bee’s knees! Everyone is super helpful and happy, no matter what time of day you go. Everyone is super knowledgeable and can really give you some good tips to make sure you get what you will need. I have never gotten less than 100% from any employee I have encountered here. What a nice change from some other places!
4. The membership club. REI offers a membership club that actually makes you a part owner in the store. For a $ 20 fee, you are a member for life! You get a dividend each year from a portion of the store’s profits. On average, it is about 10% of your total purchases of the previous year. Not too shabby! The membership also gets you discounts and coupons that they send to you pretty regularly. Not too shabby!
So if you need any sporting, hiking, camping, or survival stuff, check out REI and I am sure you will be happy!

Going to REI just makes me happy. I literally step one foot in this store and I can’t help but smile. I’m an outdoor lover and Enjoy camping so this store is a staple for those hobbies. They’re basically an outdoorsman wonderland. Even if you are not an avid outdoor person, you will feel right at home with their athletic gear, shoes, sunglasses and active lifestyle accessories.
I appreciate that REI always offers a diverse selection of gear for the hardcore outdoor type, but also for those who are less adventurous. From rock climbing to biking– from camping to kayaking– from snowboarding to hiking– REI has got you covered! They’ll even help you find the perfect gear and make sure you look good doing it! Also, if you are unhappy with an item you purchased or there is a flaw in an item –they will take it back with no hassle. I’m telling ya’, this store is bananas! Good bananas… not rotten bananas.
In addition to a great selection of items in their store, they offer a wide variety of classes. Example: Do you want to learn about rock climbing? Do want to run a half marathon and are looking to join a running group? Want to learn some camping tips? There’s a (free) class for that! Just ask one of their friendly associates and they will happily tell you about their upcoming workshops!
