    Andrew at checkout was outstanding—calm, professional, and genuinely kind. He handled my purchase with efficiency and a smile, even while dealing with an impatient customer behind me. His patience and grace made my experience seamless, and I left feeling grateful for his excellent service. REI is lucky to have him!

I said i can't sit on a bike i'm considering purchasing. He said " NO company policy". I just left. went to Dicks much nicer employees willing to help you take a ride in the parking lot.

    This store is great. The selection is well curated, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and most importantly- they stand by the stuff they sell. I had an issue where a sneaker I’d bought online had a pretty major issue after only a few months. The team here was able and willing to take it back and refunded the cost of it. They have a lifelong customer.
