This is a great store to find good deals on kids clothes IF you can find it. The store is way too small - the aisles are so small you can’t get past anyone and the racks are so overstuffed with clothes it’s incredibly difficult to sort through. They also didn’t seem to have any bins so it was awkward holding everything in my arms while trying to squeeze through everything. It would be amazing if they moved into a bigger space or just simply had less stuff out.
Had a gift certificate for here and drove across the city to use it. Only to find out at checkout that their new payment system is not accepting them for an “unknown” period of time.nnThe selection is good, and obviously really fill a need in the market to resell items. Just wish the timing wasn’t so bad.
Definitely disappointed with my time here. After my visit, I’m deeply disappointed by the unprofessional behaviour of what I presume to be the management. I witnessed how the manager, who was quite short in stature, publicly disciplined and reprimanded the staff in front of customers. It was uncomfortable and unprofessional to have employees being disciplined harshly and openly. This type of behaviour not only reflects poorly on the store's management but also creates a negative atmosphere for customers. I hope the store addresses this issue soon, as it significantly impacted my perception of their business. I would not recommend this experience to anyone.
Shop is big enough for getting all baby; toddler; kids things like Cloths including Jackets, daily ware, hats, caps and all. They also have corner footware as well.nnAlmost everything here is used stuff except some small items in clothing which seems news.nnThey have good range of toys small to big, stroller, bike, and scooter as well.nPlease note that you might have to look up as some toys are placed above at very top of cloths racks.nnBasically little space to move as like you see in new clothing shops but yes fare enough considering the business type they involved in.nnI found staff supportive and informative, only issue is less staffing at cash counter, this is again may be because lots of stuff is coming in and they need heavy amount of sorting.
Was great up until my son hit 12month sizing. Not enough variety in types of clothing, mostly jeans and button up plaid shirts for sizes 12 mo to 2T been this way for a few months. Usually only have fleece sleepers and lately I’ve found many worn pieces or with stains on them. Store super small and not stroller or kid friendly. Toys left everywhere on the weekend by kids. shoe bins are gross to sort through. Checkout can be slow.
