I get that there is no public restroom, but not very sympathetic response when directed to cart my 3 year old to another store just to come back and ask for help (which I wasn't getting in the first place). Good reminder why I shop online. Able to come home and buy the items on Amazon much easier, quicker and cheaper. Wanted help and to support brick and mortar, but didn't feel supported as a solo parent trying to buy sports gear for my son.

Finally some good customer service at a Big 5 Sporting Goods Store…read more I came in to find out if they had any hiking boots that would suit my needs, and weren't to expensive, but were of good quality. Angel asked right away if he could help me. I told him what I was looking for,. He was very patient with me. Since the store is set up that the sales associate has to go in the back to pull the shoes/boots from inventory. I put a lot of miles on Angel today. I think I tried on every possible hiking boot that they had available. The answer was always nope this one isn't going to work for some reason or another, mostly due to comfort. I was about to walk out again defeated when he said "Why don't you try these Bearpaws they look similar to the boots you have on." I said "Sure, let's give it a whirl." He came back empty handed saying they didn't have my size in stock. He quickly added that he could see if another store, in the valley, had my size, and he could have the boots transferred to that store. He called around, the store in West Valley had my size. He said I could drive all the way across town, or I could come back when they transferred. I opted to come back. I didn't want to drive across town, in traffic, to try on a pair of boots that I wasn't sure would fit me or not. He said it would take around 10 days. Just to come across town...ummm ok. I wasn't in a rush so it was ok I would have to have to wait. Angel was so helpful in this seamless process. I was also able to find a new hiking pack similar to the one I've used for years. It was a disappointment that they didn't carry the same style, but that isn't Angels fault, and the pack was similar enough that I'm sure I will enjoy it just as much. Fast forward a few days later my boots were in to pick up. That's faster than the 10 days I was told. I told them I would be by on the weekend to pick them up, well actually to try them on to see if I liked them. The next day someone else called to tell me my boots were in, I told them I had already spoken to someone, and I would be by this weekend. So the weekend came, and again I went hiking in my old boots. I stopped by to check out these Bearpaw boots. What a difference a week makes when it comes to customer service. I had to ask for help. I asked if Angel was there, and they said he had the day off. I told them what I was there for, and the two sales associates at the counter looked at each other like "what is she talking about". Someone found the boots, and handed them to me...and I was left on my own. After trying them on, I decided to buy them, and try them out. They were similar to the ones I already own, and hoped for the best. The cashier surely wasn't friendly when she rang up my purchase, which is the case with most Big 5's. Big 5's are a lower end discounted sporting goods store with a self serve vibe. When you shop here you know what you're getting or you should.

Just around the corner from REI, International Mountain Equipment is a locally owned and operated business and worth your time and your support. The staff members are experienced experts and have always been helpful and friendly. In addition to an extensive inventory of new gear, they offer consignment for used equipment. We recently stopped at IME to purchase a new pair of climbing shoes for my 5-year-old son. As you know, kids grow fast, and my son had outgrown his previous Evolv climbing shoes. Andy greeted us right away and helped me find a great pair of new climbing shoes that my son loves. IME is among the best local gear shops in the Salt Lake. Thank you for being awesome!

This is about the taylorsville Location…read more I am absolutely disgusted by the way I was treated at the Taylorsville store today. I stopped in with a backpack that I had purchased from another location because I found the exact same model in a color I actually wanted. I had my receipt, the backpack was in like-new condition, and I was simply trying to complete a straightforward exchange. Instead, I was told that I could not exchange the bag because of a missing accessory that the backpack never came with in the first place. After being refused service, I contacted the American Fork store where the backpack was originally purchased. They immediately informed me that there should have been no issue handling the exchange and apologized for the situation. Because the Taylorsville store refused to help, I was forced to drive nearly 40 minutes to American Fork just to complete a return that should have been handled at the location I was standing in. What should have been a five-minute transaction turned into well over an hour and a half of driving, wasted gas, and completely unnecessary inconvenience because employees at the Taylorsville store either did not understand their own policies or simply chose not to help. The behavior of the manager, who I believe was named Jennifer, only made the situation worse. From the moment I walked in, I felt judged and treated as though I had done something wrong. She repeatedly looked my girlfriend and me up and down and carried herself with an attitude that was dismissive, confrontational, and unprofessional. Rather than attempting to help resolve the issue, I was made to feel like a problem the moment I entered the store. What happened next was even more unacceptable. After making the unnecessary trip to American Fork and obtaining store credit, I returned to the Taylorsville location to purchase the backpack I originally wanted. The moment I walked through the door, I was immediately approached and questioned again. Before I could even explain why I was there, employees were discussing me over their radios. I could hear Jennifer talking about how I could not return items and questioning whether pieces were missing. At that point I felt like I was being treated as a thief, a scammer, or someone attempting to do something dishonest despite having receipts, documentation, and following every instruction that had been given to me. No customer should be made to feel attacked, singled out, or publicly scrutinized simply for trying to exchange or purchase merchandise. I felt targeted from the moment I entered the store. Based on the way I was approached, watched, questioned, and discussed over the radio, I cannot ignore the feeling that my appearance, alternative style, and skin color played a role in how I was treated. Whether intentional or not, the experience felt like profiling and discrimination rather than customer service. To make matters even worse, the store credit card issued by the American Fork location did not work. Instead of fixing the issue, I was told I would have to drive all the way back to American Fork yet again. By this point, your company's mistakes had already cost me significant time, fuel, and frustration, and now I was being told to make another unnecessary trip because nobody could resolve the problem at the Taylorsville location. I have never experienced customer service this hostile, accusatory, and unprofessional over something as simple as exchanging a backpack. What should have been a routine transaction became an exhausting ordeal that consumed hours of my day because of poor communication, poor management, and a complete lack of respect for a paying customer. I expect this incident to be investigated, I expect management to be held accountable, and I expect to be contacted regarding how your company intends to address the time, expense, and treatment I was subjected to. The second encounter was recorded.
