    We were planning our first ski trip and Amyleigh did an amazing job helping us. She knew what base layers we would need and gave us recommendations for any other gear we would need at Northern REI locations.

    Great experience with excellent service—from the moment we arrived until we paid, the staff was attentive, responsive, and provided accurate advice and assistance. Thank you to the gentleman with the hat who speaks French: merci! You've truly helped us become loyal fans of Rei-coop Birmingham.

    The staff are generally uninformed about anything involving the outdoors, other than trendy clothing. The no bag policy is a slap in the face when purchasing very expensive items. No wonder REI will soon be a distant memory.
