Would not recommend to anyone.

I am a huge Samsonite fan. The luggage that I brought with me on this trip is a Samsonite and is…read moreprobably two decades old. The fabric has seen better days, as has its handle. It has been replaced with, you guessed it, another Samsonite luggage. I am in search of a carry-on, rolling computer bag. My trusty one that I have been using for a decade no longer fits in the overhead compartment on Air Canada's aircraft travelling to and from the States. I need something smaller, but I am perfectly fine using my backpack these days. I saw this Samsonite store at Eagan Outlet Mall. I had never stepped foot in it. I decided to pay it a visit. I walked in and a European-designed set of luggage greeted me. The small one looked adorable. I rolled it around and it was incredibly lightweight that required little effort to move it. A man approached me and asked if I had any questions. I launched into one. I was looking for a computer rolling bag and wondered if he had any. He had two and led me over to them. One had two wheels and was rather large. The other was smaller with four wheels. I loved the smaller one more. His counterpart, who is his manager, pointed out some bags that were designed for women and had wheels. He showed one of them and it looked hideous. It looked like a handbag on steroids with two wheels. What caught my attention were the travel accessories. I liked the Disney tags and got a Minnie Mouse one. I also got a spinner strap that clips on to your luggage and secures your second bag. The best part of this visit was the conversation. The man asked where I was from. I said Toronto. It was interesting that the woman couldn't tell whether I was Canadian or American. She asked. I said the former. I have always felt that it's straightforward figuring out that I'm Canadian. I don't talk like a Minnesotan unless I am mimicking it. However, I am so comfortable being in this state because I used to live here. I can see why she couldn't tell. I let them know that I used to live in Rochester, which made both of them open up. They both live in Rochester. The woman used to live across from where I used to work. The man lived in Owatonna before settling in Rochester. I don't find it weird driving an hour between Rochester and Eagan for work. It's similar to my driving between Markham and Mississauga for work before the pandemic. Perhaps as I get older, connections with and stories from people make me happy. I enjoyed hearing how she and her then boyfriend drove from Rochester to Niagara Falls for the first time. She loved the charm of that city, but her cheap boyfriend found the food at McDonald's so expensive. "Are you still with him?" I asked her. "Unfortunately, yes, depending on your point of view," she said. We all cracked up! If you check in on the Yelp app and you spend $200 or more, you get $20 off. That's not bad if you get the largest piece of luggage in the store. Everything was discounted, including the two accessories that I was purchasing. I paid using a credit card. Their payment kiosk accepts tap, swipe, and chip insertion. I did tap and it works fine. They both let me know that they expect more roller computer bags down the road. Due to supply chain issues, there is a delay. I was okay with it and thanked them both for showing me what they have. There is more selection at this store than at the ones that I have frequented in Canada. They were happy to hear it. The woman told me to stay warm, as the Twin Cities is currently going through a cold snap. The man said that it's probably warmer in Toronto, but the weather right now is comparable to Winnipeg. I let him know that I used to live in Winnipeg. It was where I learned how to plug in my car on cold nights, which made them both laugh and appreciate that I am a fairly well-travelled person. I appreciated that he used to work at FedEx and knew that Canada has postal codes. I signed up to be on Samsonite's mailing list, so he made sure that he didn't ask me for my ZIP code. I was pleased with my cool purchases and how friendly both staff members were. I had an enjoyable shopping experience and chat. I'd return again in hopes of finding a decent computer bag with spinner wheels. (492)

Beware of Clearance items, they are final sale, not returnable. EVEN if you find they are…read moredefective. We purchased an electrical plug converter for a trip and when we unfolded the prongs when we got to Europe, the prongs were both defective, the metal ends detached from their posts. The thing was unusable. In addition, if the metal tips had still been on the prongs (only loose, not fallen off yet) and we plugged it in to an outlet, the metal tips could have remained in the outlet when we unplugged! That could have been a disaster. The store refused to accept a return, even of a defective Clearance item, citing that we knew when we bought them that they were not returnable, that they had no way of knowing if an unopened packaged item was defective, etc. My guess is that the Clearance items are things that they already know have a problem and they just want to get rid of them, take your money, no returns accepted. If an item is packaged so that you cannot test it out, don't buy. My trust in Samsonite is destroyed.

I've been into Erik's several times over the past few months, and I finally decided to purchase my…read moree‑bike from them. Each visit, I was able to test ride multiple bikes so I could be confident I was choosing the right one. Every time I walked in, I was greeted right away and asked if there was anything specific I was looking for, which made the whole experience feel welcoming rather than feeling rushed or like I was being pressured to buy something I didn't want. I went in on a very busy Saturday to make my purchase, and the team still took their time with me. They adjusted the seats on the bikes I was test riding to make sure it was going to be comfortable, let me wander the store as long as I needed to make my decision, and answered every question thoroughly when I asked. Mark, Mason, and Tyler were the sales staff I worked with that day, and they took great care of me and everyone else in the store. Once I chose my bike, checkout was quick and easy. They sent it to the service area to mount my new seat and water bottle holder while I ran a few errands, and I got a text when everything was ready. When I came back to pick up the bike, Tyler walked me through all the features, helped me set up the app, and made sure I left with no unanswered questions. From start to finish I felt like the team was there to help me, not pressure me. A few days later, I noticed a small vibration in the bike--nothing major, just something I wasn't used to as a first‑time e‑bike owner. I brought it back in, and Nate in the service area checked it over right away. He test rode it, made sure nothing was wrong, and explained what I was feeling (just the motor revving up). He was patient, thorough, and never made me feel silly for asking. I would recommend this shop to anyone. They know what they're doing, they take care of their customers, and they make the whole process easy and enjoyable.

I used to buy super expensive sunglasses and they would inevitably break or I'd lose them so I like these because they fit nice, are stylish, block sun and run about $80. I walked into the store and was immediately helped. I tried on one pair of lens adjusting glasses and he told me to go outside and see how they darken. He was knowledgeable about how and when they darken. He checked into glasses similar to what I had at other stores. In the end I bought a different style from what I had and am happy with my choice. I then walked around the store. They have tons of bikes but also many clothes and accessories. I liked all the Mn themed bike shirts they had available. I'll definitely be back to shop some more. Great experience.

However; I also love coming randomly throughout the year to get updated clothing items. I typically like to check out under Armour and Nike, the Columbia store also has a separate outlet location as well. Recently, I feel like prices haven't been nearly as good as they used to, but in this economy, who can blame them. I would love to see a little bit more variation in the food court, it's mostly Asian cuisines and Cinnabon. All delicious but would love to see some more options. There's a ton of parking, but if you come on a busy weekend, you may not notice and still have to park far away. Bummed to see some recent retailers, leaving, they've been replaced with stores that my opinion were is great. Overall, a decent shopping trip, it's also in a great location. There's plenty of other stores/eating nearby. I recommend checking out the Twin Cities premium outlets if you haven't been there before.
