Very busy and popular store. The clothing is great and the attention to detail is the best. Could improve on the size of the fitting rooms.

So when the Chimes came along, rather than fighting the much more modern looking competitor it just slumped into defeat and now is a bit of a sad shadow of its former self. It retains some of the old stores from its hey day, but for the most part, the bigger stores are in the Chimes. But I still like it, it was important to my childhood but the days of going to the back corner for Zodiac Toys to see what Thundercats they had in is long gone. These days of goths started hanging out the front I don't think they would bother to pull out the newly installed raises flower beds so that they'd have to move on as there wouldn't be anything to lean against. These days they'd just be welcomed.

I've seen Hotter shoes online before, and pretty much thought of it as an old lady shoe shop. Plus,…read moreit seemed pretty pricey for some fugly old lady shoes. But then I won a £10 gift voucher and thought I might as well have a look at some point. Then I started having a problem with one of my feet and thought that maybe some comfortable old lady shoes were just what I needed, so in we went on Boxing Day. The shop only had a couple of other customers (but it had been much busier earlier, said the assistant), and we were really quickly greeted and asked if we needed help. I wasn't surprised to see lots of old lady shoes but then - there were actually quite a few I liked. Unfortunately of the 3 I wanted to try, they only had one in my size, but they fit well, were comfy, and I think they look pretty nice, too. They do run a bit wide but I have wide feet, so perfectly suitable for me. The shoes I got are a pair of black leather Chelsea boots with a bit of a brogue pattern on them. £85 regular price, £75 in the sale - so actually, for a decent quality leather boot, a really good price. 90 days to return them, too, and clearly if they fell apart even after, they would help out. The service was impeccable. Even my picky husband left with a pair of shoes. So yes, if you're young, or want a pair of shoes to go clubbing in, this isn't the place. But for a quality pair of sensible shoes, have a look. And if you're an old lady? Heaven.

I got a pair of work trousers and shirt and they have been my favourite so far. Look out for the sales, I was a bit disappointed since the US stores seem to have lower prices.

I have brought a pair of earrings and a bag from there about 1 year ago, and they still look new. The shop is small and the design contemporary, and looks like it should be in Milan.

People in Uxbridge usually go there to shop for gifts or if they are looking for an item for a special occasion. Everybody in Uxbridge will vouch for how good this shop is. It's on a different level then any other shop in Uxbridge.

There…read moreis way more space in here than any other clothes shop in Hemel and you can find the usual bargain items which are a staple in my wardobe. There are always plenty of staff milling around and the changing rooms are plentiful which means no queuing, not even in sale times! The quality and price are what you've come to expect from New Look and they've recently added a mens area and childrens too. I'm a real convert on the kids clother, I've been buying my little man jeans from here ever since they opened! Fab quality which really takes a battering from my 4 year old and washes well.

Loads of staff on duty so the queue didn't last forever, again, met by two smiling checkout people, that had a good little system going between them.

I think Evans is probably the best of the larger clothing specialty brands. The clothes they sell…read moreare mostly suitable for the younger and middle age range of the market. Lots of the designs are fashionable enough without being inapprpriate for larger ladies. The prices are on the higher side, so I often shop in their sales, because items are often very reduced in price. Evans is also the only shop I have found where you can buy a plunge bra in large sizes. The quality of their clothes is pretty good, but you do have to thoroughly check before you buy, because it can be a bit variable. They do gorgeous shoes too, unfortunately they are all in wider fittings, so for the narrow footed amongst us it's not a lot of cop. And they go up to a size 9 which is quite unusual. You can buy your whole wardrobe from here, the range is excellent. The staff in this particular branch are very helpful, and are always willing to give their opinion on what you're trying on if you want it. They are friendly, and hard working, and manage to keep the shop tidy, even in the busiest sale times!
