The store’s reviews are heavily weighted towards positive reactions. Consumers are generally pleased with the shopping experience, there is a good range of high-quality outdoor products. They commend the knowledgeable and friendly staff helping them out and the mostly satisfactory website shipping experience. Outdoor lovers point out that the store is a terrific location, with exceptional camping goods, clothing, and accessories. However, a few raised reservations about the store's location, specifically the parking and downtown area safety. There's a lot of love for these caverns, but there's a logistical issue of owning and relocating a physical branch, which lets some ambivalent feelings cut through the satisfaction.
