By far the worst experience I have ever had with any business! Please stay far away from this…read moreplace! We had planned to rent seasonal snowboards for our two young boys who are both less than 40 pounds (which means they would need a 90cm snowboard). I called and inquired if they had 90 cm snowboards and was told that they do. We immediately went in to get our seasonal rentals. We filled out all of the information (including height and weight), paid for our rentals, and were told they would be ready in two weeks. To my surprise, I received an email a week later saying our rentals were ready. However, due to our schedule, we could not get in that weekend to pick them up. So, the following weekend, we showed up to pick up our rentals (both of my boys were so excited), only to find out that they were not actually ready. When I inquired as to why I was sent an email saying they were ready. I was given vagueness and "I don't know". We were told that they would definitely be ready the next day. So, we show up the next day to be handed two boards over 100cm. Anyone in the industry would know that this is WAY too large for a child that is under 40 pounds. However, I am being told by Ilene, that going off of height and weight, this is fine and how their measurement works. This is incorrect and can be dangerous! I was given no apology, refusal to listen to what I had to say, and complete and utter rudeness from Ilene. And, unfortunately for us, we waited around for two weeks being told lie after lie from this company, and now we have no rentals and probably will have a very difficult time finding rentals now as we have waited so long. Please, for the safety of your children (or yourself) and definitely for your sanity, STAY AWAY FROM BUCKLES AND BOARDS!

I have large extra wide feet and they have always had at least a few options for me to try. Last year the owner, I think his name is John told me I need to consider buying at least a pair of boots to take my skiing to the next level. Well I did and he was right, so I went in recently to buy my own skis to go with the boots and got an awesome post season deal on a pair of Blizzard skis. While I was there I was surprised at the amount of summer stuff they had. They even have these cool inflatable kayaks

They have basically anything you need for outdoors activities. I've usually shopped for hiking gear and camel backs or osprey / rei branded stuff. Also got a pair of hiking boots. I think it's cool REI is a coop brand. Member owned. They have plenty of sales going on, bicycles standard and electronic assisted, survival gear, clothing from all sorts of brands, boots and hiking gear, camping gear, lanterns, knives, paddles, water shoes, and also have deals on traded in gear. Nice experience. Love walking around and looking at stuff i probably don't need but it's a cool tool or utility purposed item.

My first time actually popping into a physical REI store!…read moreI've only ever shopped online via their website & haven't visited in person until today. This is an incredible store to visit if you're looking for outdoor needs! If you're going camping any time soon, skiing/snowboarding, water activities, running, hiking, biking... or even just looking for athletic wear & outdoor gear, this is the spot to hit up! I was surprised to see that they offer Vuori clothing here. I thought that Vuori only sold at their own stores, so it was a pleasant surprise to see on their second floor! I was very intrigued by their electric bikes that were on display on the first floor, by their shoe selection. Cannot lie, was very tempted to get one just because they looked cool! Of course, have to do some research first haha. The vibe was very similar to an LL Bean store, I loved it! Looks like they have some decent sales in store, 20% off one full priced item & had many 30% discounted items.

I wanted one that had certain features included, and the model ordered didn't have any of them. When I called for assistance, I was told all of the "add ons" I wanted could be purchased once they knew I actually liked the bike. This was confusing to me, and felt very dismissive. I didn't want to wait weeks for a bike to come in, bring it home, and then wait weeks for fenders and other parts to come in before I could really ride it the way I wanted to. I'm not sure if they didn't know (or want to admit) that they had ordered the wrong model, or if there was something more icky going on...but with the size of purchase...I no longer felt comfortable. I canceled my order and went elsewhere.

She typically stays behind the counter, which I appreciate when you aren't followed around the entire time, so you can peruse without any pressure.

The Hanover Crossing mall in Hanover has been in the midst of a major and much needed makeover for…read morethe last few years. The construction is nearing completion and has turned an old-fashioned mostly indoor mall of years past into a more modernized version of an outside shopping center with stores having their own buildings accessed from well manicured outdoor sidewalks with plenty of parking in the middle of it all. While not as charming as the Derby Street Shops which underwent a similar makeover about 15 years ago, but still nice and certainly much improved from the dated mess that was there previously. This latest L.L. Bean outpost has recently opened and I paid it a visit a few days ago. It is certainly big, bright and well-organized although of course not nearly as mammoth and wonderful as the original satellite store in Freeport Maine. But I am pleased to have this location so close by. As with everything everywhere prices have gone up on much of the tried and true L.L. Bean merchandise and products are no longer made in the USA. Most things it seems at L.L. Bean have been outsourced to China which continues to be a disappointment. I miss the days of the USA made products that could once be found here. But there are reasons still to shop at L.L. Bean. I am a decades long fan of their Ragg wool socks for example which I wear throughout the winter. They are very warm, comfortable and last a long time. I am also a big fan of their canvas tote bags and I cannot tell you how many of those I own. I keep at least 4 of them in my car at all times as they are the bags I bring with me to go to the supermarket and to the farmers market, etc. They are my beach and boat tote bags as well. They are sturdy, strong, can be machine washed and dried and they last for years. And they are fun to have monogrammed with initials or any word or phrase up to 10 characters. I also love the L.L. Bean H2O rain coat and H2O rain jacket I own which both have hoods and zip-out liners. These are so good at keeping me warm dry in the rain that I no longer use an umbrella (I hate umbrellas so this is a big win!). I am looking to get a new H2O rain jacket so when I am ready, I'm glad to be able to get it here. My husband just found very nice, warm pair of leather gloves here in a men's size XL. He is a big guy and has such trouble finding XL gloves with long enough fingers so this was good news. Nothing of course will meet the shopping experience and scope of the original Freeport Maine store but I am very happy to have this store nearby for easy access.

I found Public Lands to be a more elevated DSG & loved the store...Very nice displays on the floor! They have a lovely selection of women's, men's, and children's. I think very similar to REI too, but better? Haha. Will definitely be back.

Their "wicked good moccasins" are incredibly comfortable and I love wearing them in the fall/winter time. I've definitely gone through several pairs. Backpacks are super nostalgic; I had mine with my initials as a kid haha, honestly I would get another one. Good quality, got about ten years of use out of that backpack & it allowed me to carry 5 heavy textbooks and some more.

Pricing is on par with their competitors, usually don't see too many sales or promos outside the sales rack. Will be back!
