    Bad spot to take kids. All bikes are locked up and no room to test the bikes. Staff does not want kids to go inside tents

    Worst REI experience ever. The staff were blatantly unfriendly toward kids. They wouldn’t let them try anything. We came specifically to buy kids’ bikes, yet there was nowhere to test them—and the employees wouldn’t even allow the kids to pedal inside the store. Just “sit on it,” they said. And all the bikes were locked. How are we supposed to choose bikes if the kids can’t actually try it? And only one model of each bike model on the floor, which Bellevue store has at least two or three each model. Absolutely ridiculous!

    Rick at the bike shop is the man!! Helped me pump up my shocks and my tires before my first mountain bike experience with a used bike I had bought. Great customer service, thanks Rick!

    This store rocks. Adam was apparently new on the job but was so helpful and like a pro. He even had an afterthought and found me in the store to give me additional information! Leila...she was cashiering, helped me figure out the best possible deal, in addition to brightening my day with her sunny and fun disposition. Thank you!
