    We just stopped by REI to look around, but Foster was super helpful! He took the time to size us, made sure we tried bags and shared a lot of great info. There was also another staff member who helped us out, I forgot his name, but he was really nice and gave great advice too. Everyone made our visit such a great experience.

    A horrible experience with customer service, they never gave me information after 15 days of placing my order, I sent them several emails, they responded with excuses and it took them 2 or 3 days to respond each time, so I canceled the order and asked for a refund and they didn't give it to me until I contacted the bank, I don't recommend them, they are not professionals.

    So happy I bought my moutain bike from them. I purchased it back in February. Its been a great bike. But my crank came loose and I tried to tighten it multiple time and it kept coming loose. I took it in on a Saturday and Keith the manager put it up on the bike stand look it over and decided it needed a new crank arm. He installed it and gave me some pointers on maintenance. The repair ended up being free of charge. But I didn't leave with their recommened chain oil so I can keep up with my bike better. They have been greta each time I've been in.

    Rob in the shoe department deserves a raise, I didn't even end up buying what I came in for but he's definitely a good guy to have around the store
