John Lewis Reviews

We have been shopping at various John Lewis stores for decades, and have never ever had any problems (other than spending a fortune). Whenever anything goes wrong, they put it right without too much fuss and definitely without giving you hassle. You also have assurance that they have a price promise, so it is unlikely that you will ever ...  Read the complete review

I heard about John Lewis a couple of years ago,they came across as a quality catalogue/store that sold high quality items only,nothing was on the cheap! and most products even a bin would cost at least 10-20 pounds, no less mainly. Granted they sell high quality products and sell just about everything - computers, hoovers, heaters, irons, ...  Read the complete review

I really like John Lewis. We do not have a store in the town where i live, but in the city closest to us there is one and when ever we go there, or to other cities we will often pop into John Lewis to have a look round. My local John Lewis is in Carlisle in Cumbria, and i will sometimes visit Newcastle where there is one there. Both these are ...  Read the complete review

I am going to write this review based on my most recent experience with their customer services department. Don't get me wrong I enjoy shopping in John Lewis, I like to have a browse and they have so much to offer. The trouble is that looking is normally as far as it goes as everything in there is very much over priced and anything you ...  Read the complete review

My very first impression of John Lewis was that it is very posh and expensive store, which sells same branded item twice the price of Tesco & Argos. But with my shopping experience over the years, that has now changed. Now I believe that JL gives perfect peace of mind by paying little bit extra. I remember I had hard time returning ...  Read the complete review

Must admit the first time I went into the John Lewis I thought that everything would be over priced. How wrong was I?! Firstly the staff are so helpful and friendly no matter how busy the store is there always seems to be someone who is able to help. John Lewis literally sells everything! Just looking at the last year I purchased a ...  Read the complete review

John Lewis has always been a favourite with me, I think because of the excellent customer service, but I'll come to that later. John Lewis used to be Cole Brothers here in Shefield and many people still refer to it as that, it depends what generation you're from. The corner it used to be located on before it moved to Barkers Pool was ...  Read the complete review

John Lewis Sheffield City Centre I like John Lewis, or Cole Brothers as we know our local branch here in in Sheffield. It's a quality store with a respectable clientele. As previously reviewed, it has had a reputation of being for the older generation but I believe JL has remade itself into a label of quality for anyone who can afford ...  Read the complete review

As I have written about John Lewis before in my Wedding List review I will not write a 4000 word essay, mainly because it will bore you and my fingers will fall off. I am basing all my assumptions on just the stores I have visited (around 4), of which mostly is the one in Milton Keynes. As with most department stores the shop is huge ...  Read the complete review

luckily we have a john lewis nearby so it is good to go and browse and to get lots of ideas. there is so much to choose from - my favourite departments are the bedding, stationary(tho' surprisingly small),oriental carpets and cookware/kitchen - my husband and daughters love the computer section but I must admit that over the few years this ...  Read the complete review

The nearest store for me would be Edinburgh and it is certainly quite a classy department store selling almost everything from computers to homeware. Some of the gift items are very appealing too. The quality of customer service is second to none and I've never heard of any complaints so far about this store. It is sometimes a little more ...  Read the complete review

This department store has got to be the best chain in England. The stores are always well stocked and laid out. The goods are excellent quality, especially John Lewis's own brand (always scores well in 'which' consumer magazine). Good value and *Classy classy classy.* What is most impressive though are the staff. They all seem genuinely ...  Read the complete review

This Christmas I had a hugely dissapointing experience with John Lewis. It has convinced me never to shop there again. On 20th December 2006, I bought a AEG L86810 Washing Machine from John Lewis on line. It was delivered to me on the 2nd January. On the first wash the machine shook so violently it tore up our lino and ...  Read the complete review

I miss John Lewis - used to go in there all the time when I lived in London. I still have the 6ft artificial tree I bought in there 6 years ago and it is still going strong - about to get it out and decorate when 1st December arrives!!! I love the fact you can always get good quality goods at great prices. I remember spending hours ...  Read the complete review

My nearest John Lewis stores are in Oxford Street and in Sloane Street, I've also visited the one in Brent Cross. I only go to the Oxford Street one after work occasionally and normally before I go to meet friends for a drink or for Christmas shopping. It is rare due to West End crowds that I'd go there at weekends! My earliest memory ...  Read the complete review

I live about a 10 minute drive from the large John Lewis store in Edinburgh - one of the 26 John Lewis department stores in the UK. "Department store" is the correct description for the place (I checked the website!) but I think that that gives it a bit too much of a dowdy image compared to its seemingly everchanging stock and ...  Read the complete review

Our nearest branch of John Lewis is in Welwyn Garden City, and I was initially bewildered to discover that life seems to revolve around that store. Until recently the town centre has been totally dead each Monday. Puzzled, I did a large survey of customers in WGC town centre, and found that the most common reason for this quietness was John Lewis ...  Read the complete review

am getting married in March and have decided to go for a wedding list arrangement so that I don't receive 75 toasters / kettles etc, you get the picture. Also I think that it's nice to actually buy someone something they really want, rather than just crossing your fingers and hoping for the best. There were a number of shops where we could have ...  Read the complete review

I'm Scottish, and everyone knows how us Scottish folk can be with our money. Certainly, being a student doesn't help either, and I'm not one for spending money in an even remotely expensive shop. I'd walked by the John Lewis in Glasgow countless times, and sometimes even took a short cut through it to get to the bus station for my bus ...  Read the complete review

I am a very lucky little shopaholic! Right next to my office is a branch of John Lewis. I grew up with the belief that for anything that we needed ‘to last’ could only be bought from John Lewis and my attitude has changed little since I allegedly grew up; I still feel this way. Any of you have read any of my other Ops will now ...  Read the complete review
