Primark

It recently seems like the quality of the clothes at Primark have gotten really chintzy; the prices are great, however; as long as you only want to wear the clothes in the current season because I feel they simply won’t last longer than that. The frustration I have each time I shop there is that there are about 20 cashiers ready to check you out when they’re ready to take your money, but when it comes time to make a return or exchange in the store, there are only a few clerks at those registers and the lines are always long and slow. Also, the clerks at the registers are young kids who have no professional polish, they barely look up at you, or say thank you, etc. and really need better training.
I hope Primark in downtown crossing can get their acts together with staffing and also, improve the quality of the clothing as well.
Thank you.

I want to like this store because everything is so cheap but I can’t. The store is overwhelming and you have to try on everything before buying it. Sizing is weird and it looks different hanging. I have been here a handful of times and only ended up with a coverup. They do not have many size 2, which is the smallest size in store. My friend has good luck but I don’t. It obviously is cheap quality hence the prices. I will pop in here if I am in downtown crossing but that is rare.

Primark! I wish for a store in Houston. However, on our recent memorial day trip to Boston we are in search for a suit for my husband and went to this place. It is located around macy’s and H&M. The store is four storied with well organized according to sizes and the prices cheap yet fashionable clothes. Definitely a visit place for me as I love fashionable picks over designer. Quality is OK for the price they offer. We got a 2 pc suit around 100 – 120 $ not kidding!
I missed to click as that weekend it is a mad crowd place :-(.

I really love their stuff, it’s not top notch quality but what do you expect with the prices, I can’t help but spend at least an hour there, like a kid in a candy store.

This palce needs to either lay off its employees or pay them more. The staff’s non responsive behavior, acting as if they are airport security is really very cheap. I would have been so ashamed of my stores not having had trained my staff better. They are not the TSA and they need to learnt o respect people. (I m nkt talking about the security. Staff at the counter, staff walkign around and especially thoae in the dressing room.

Primark is ok. The store is clean, and bright. You can easliy find items that you’re looking for in a variety of sizing, generally good stuff all around. However, the young men and women who work at this location? No Bueno! Especially at the checkout. They are rude, unfriendly and just plain mean! I overheard One young lady speaking about how ugly a customer was IN FRONT OF OTHER CUSTOMERS! MY GOD, why?
Do a better job of vetting and censoring these young people.

Great place to get cute, super cheap clothes, that are of questionable quality. Some things are better made than others… They have awesome kids clothes (insanely cheap) that are, generally, of better quality than the adult styles. You are crazy not to shop here if you have kids. Summer options are definitely better than winter.
The return policy is genius in that there is only 1 floor in which you can return and the line is usually outrageous so you will just keep whatever it is you meant to return and be stuck with it. Your best best would be to shop here off-​hours as well as it can get really busy and the lines pretty crazy.

Everything’s cheap because the quality is pretty bad. I’ve made returns twice and the line for returns is always so long.
They overstock on the same items, just in different colors. So you could go to another section of the store thinking that you’ll find a different selection of clothing, but you’ll probably end up finding the same top you saw two minutes ago, except this time, it’s in 3 other different colors. Same goes for wallets, flats, socks, underwear, etc.
Their jewelry selection was also a complete disappointment.
After seeing people say how bad the customer service is, I avoided the employees at all cost.

Oh Primark! Why oh why have you not opened a store in Miami yet?! On a recent trip to Boston, I decided to check out Primark on a whim without ever hearing of it. Boy was I surprised! This store is massive at four floors. The clothes and accessories are so cute and trendy yet so affordable! I had to control myself being that Spirit would charge me an arm and a leg if my bag weighed too much.
I ended up buying some olive green skinny jeans which I have worn an embarrassing amount of times and the quality is great! I usually buy my clothes at Forever 21 and i’d say that this quality is a step up from it. I also bought heels that have lasted as well! I can’t say enough good things about this place. Looking forward to doing another haul on my next visit to Boston!

This place is a mad house on the weekends! Thankfully I went today and it wasn’t that busy. It’s conveniently located in Downtown Crossing near Macy’s and H&M (competition much?) There is a wide selection of clothing, shoes, bags and just about anything you can think of. I go here to buy some of my basics like tanks/​t-​shirts because the price is cheap. You can see people buying bulks of clothing here.
The quality isn’t that great, but it’s cheap and fashionable. However, you can find some quality items for a great deal. I just bought some surprisingly cute comfortable flats ($ 13) and a colorful printed short ($ 6) for a grand total of $ 19! If you are a poor college student, or someone on a budget, look no further… Primark may be your calling.

So it is my fault that the price rang up different than the sale tag? Lady at register added a comment that suggested I placed the sale tag over the original price?! You can check the security camera, I am clean! I asked the woman to call the manager for price over ride. Instead she ripped off the tag and told me that item is not on sale. When manager arrived I didn’t have a chance to tell him what happened and the woman said just to remove that (sale) item off the list. Wow. The correct response (s) should have been 1) sorry this was mistagged, but I will still honor the sale price 2) sorry it was mistagged, do you still want item? 3) let me see if I can find same item on the shelf…

How could anyone rate Primark less than 5 stars? My friend and I had a couple of hours to kill before our flight back to SF and we walked into Primark opening weekend (in September) with no expectations.
We bought as much as we could fit into our carry ons but it was hard to narrow down the options as I loved almost everything I tried on (which is a rare experience for me). Some people seem to think that the quality is not good but that is absolutely not the case. For the past 5 months, almost every single Primark shirt, sweater, or coat has been in the regularly rotation for both my friend and me. I’ve washed some shirts 15+ times and they are in the exact same condition as when I bought them.
I can’t believe how inexpensive the clothes are. The next time I see a flight deal to Boston, my friend and I are going back just to shop at Primark.

My colleagues and high school students alike have been raving about Primark, so I decided to see for myself.
4 stars for the stuff — stylish purses for 9 bucks, slipper socks 3 for 3.50, lots of hosiery and staples. For 30 dollars I walked out with 8 pairs of tights, 3 pairs of socks, 3 pairs of underwear, and a purse. If I had the patience, I would have tried on some actual clothes, but there is a lot to look at and I was overwhelmed.
1 Star for the employees. I watched a young cashier throw a temper tantrum about a receipt that wouldn’t print, and called her employee an ‘asshole.’ She came close to dropping an f-​bomb as well. Also, I was there at 3PM on a Saturday and there were only two cashiers! There seemed to be a ton of employees there, but not sure what they were all doing.
Customer service goes a long way for me, and I may go back to stock up on staples, but they need to train their employees in professionalism.

Shop till you drop in accessories and tops.
Bargain prices for what clothes should actually cost of that quality. I was amazed by 4 floors of goods. Primark definitely markets to the everyday consumer with stylish clothing that isn’t bizarre. From cute Disney goods to casual tops, although the lack of dresses disappointed me I came out with a pack of socks and a pair of cute memory foam slippers. Unfortunately, the memory foam slippers weren’t sewn nicely so my toes get to feel every stitch made. (Check before you buy folks!) A lot of the dressier tops looked the same to me except maybe with a different collar style or jewelry attachment.
I was glad the 4^th floor had kids clothing AND home goods, or else it would have been an oops, let’s take the escalator back down situation.
Primark reminds me a bit of the colors and handbags of Charming Charlie, the casual Forever 21, but with the prices of the streets of China. Lots of walking space, brightly lit, and tax is already included in the price.

I have really mixed feelings about this place. Clothes are really, really cheap. This isn’t a place I’d go to redo my entire wardrobe. As expected, the quality isn’t great at all.
I like this place more for the accessories over the clothes (although I did buy a great pair of jeggings here for $ 10 that fit me perfectly). For example, I bought a couple pairs of slipper socks for $ 1 each. Also got some large, cozy scarves for $ 7 each. I also spent a couple of bucks on a pair of gloves that allow me to use my iPhone. Also found a blanket in the home goods section for $ 2.80. Do I expect these things to last forever? No, but for the time being, I think it’s worth it.
I am knocking it down to 2 stars because of the employees. I don’t expect first class customer service, but the employees don’t look like they want to be there. I couldn’t bring my bag of accessories into the fitting room, so the employee took it to hang up, but didn’t give me a number. I didn’t find out I needed a number until I went to retrieve my items. This place is also crawling with way too many people, no matter what time of day you go. They’re the type of people who walk with their eyes glued to their cell phones and just don’t pay attention to their surroundings, so you’re constantly walking into someone.

Like H&M on steroids.
Cheap BUT fashionable. It’s 2016 folks and if you’re under 25 I guess this is how you shop. Buy it, wear it, throw it away.
There’s only one in the US so far, so the bag has none of the ‘chav’ associated to it that it does in the UK, will the kudos lasts as it expands? We’ll see.

I had just visited Primark for the first time in Scotland this summer, so I was stoked to hear it was opening here in Boston. This Primark is actually wayyyy nicer than the one in Edinburgh, with lots more money going into the displays and interior design.
I’m a grad student aka have negative money.
I know fast fashion isn’t good quality, but it’s cheap and fashionable and that’s why I love it.
They have fleece tights, packs of socks, etc etc etc etc for $ 4
My advice: bring cash.
It’s too easy to spend wayyyy too much when everything costs $ 10.
My favorite sections are their accessories, jackets (really warm and good quality for $ 30 – can’t beat that, and of course the home goods section just crushes it. Such cute décor items at dirt cheap prices.
Now that it’s been open for awhile, it’s not as crowded and the employees seem a bit less stressed:)
OH and they have ADORABLE Christmas decorations right now!!!

Introduced by a friend who studied abroad, Primark is a place for affordable clothing, shoes, and home products. This four story store sits in Downtown Crossing across from Macy’s and was packed on Thursday night. Lines were really long (hence the 4 stars) as people approached the checkout counters with containers of items. By that time in the evening (before 7 pm), they had run out of large bags, and so each cashier warned customers they would be given multiple small bags if necessary.
For $ 105, I got a knee length coat, three sweaters, seven pairs of black ankle socks, 50 black hair ties, a pair of boots, and two scarves. The quality of the materials is pretty good given the price. My friend and I ooh’d and aah’d over the soft and coziness of the items throughout the store.
I ended up waiting in line longer to check out on Thursday night than I did on Saturday morning (when they open at 8 am). On Saturday, people were waiting to be let in to do some shopping.
Most of the workers here were busy yet friendly and helpful. This is an awesome addition, and I hope they expand to other cities in the country.

Primark is just A-​OK to me. I expected a lot from this place due to the hype, but when I came in I was completely underwhelmed. I wasn’t a fan of the style and everything was just too big for me. I wished they carried XS =/​Even when I wanted to find a small, the hangers were hung incorrectly. I thought I found a 2 (because it says 2 on the hanger) but realized the shirt said size 12 so be careful if you’re looking for your size based on the hanger. It happened quite a lot of times, so on top of carrying the uncomfortable bag they gave us, I had to sort through every single shirt to find a size. That isn’t doing the customer or the sales associates (who has to find the clothes again and again cuz we keep messing it up) any favors here. Anyways, I know now to just completely avoid the first floor when I get here.
Okay moving up to the second floor, I was once underwhelmed once again by the clothes they had here so I went straight to the accessories and miscellaneous things. The jewelry were actually quite nice, but I question the material and how fast it will deteriorate because it is just SO cheap! I mean, I absolutely love their jewelry and bags — I bought three different bags and a backpack because it was just that cheap. I went bat-​crazy on statement necklaces and earrings. I love how they have super random things on this floor — from suitcases to little dolls (which I bought one for my kitten) to little nail art.
Third floor was when I went CRAZY because I saw so people buying so many things and I’m just like I must be doing something wrong here… because my bag was pretty empty compared to others. This is where they have all the shoes, pajamas, and lingerie. Speaking of lingerie, you can NO LONGER TRY THEM ON IN THE FITTING ROOMS. Which is fine because I’d rather go to Victoria’s Secret for lingerie anyways. Alright so the shoes actually look really nice, but I know that the heels will hurt my feet really quickly because it’s not comfortable. However, that didn’t stop me from buying two pairs of heels because THEY’RE SO CHEAP. Flats… omg way too cheap once again. I love their flats! They are comfortable and very versatile. I ended up buying four pairs of flats — HELLO FALL FASHION!!!
Anyways, I am going to stop here because I’m just going to continue talking about the things I bought here. The point is, the store isn’t that great. I just bought a lot of things because everything was so cheap and it was different than any other stores. On a daily basis, I would probably hit up Newbury St for better things. And I can’t help but think about how everybody would start wearing stuff from here that we will all LOOK THE SAME. Because Primark doesn’t have a huge variety of styles. They just overstock their items, which is why the store is so big. It’s not a bad place — just not my style.

Linda loja.
Mas para homens com certeza é uma decepção. Pouca variedade de números e modelos masculinos além de não apresentar nada novo em moda masculina.
Mas as malas de viagem são baratas e boas

I’ve browsed through Primarks in London so pretty excited to have this open.
The outside is super nice and clean, and the inside is very organized and spacious. Not sure if it was just for opening day, but they were just teeming with staff. I was afraid it was going to be a mad house, but they were just so overstaffed with people folding and cleaning constantly that it stayed organized throughout the day. There was still quite a bit of disorganization (a lot of stuff was mis-​categorized or hung in the wrong section, and for some reason the small sized coats were at the top rack out of reach??) but I was overall super impressed with the state of the store.
The fashion itself is a cross between Charlotte Russe and American Eagle. For women, lots of military jackets and long cardigans. The store has a really prominent light blue theme and is HUGE. Seriously just SO MANY CLOTHES it was almost overwhelming. Staff didn’t really seem to actually know much — I asked one person where the camel coat in the ad was and she could only point me to the coats section. But given how new they are, definitely understandable.
I think for the price (a LOT of stuff is under $ 20, even under $ 10) I can’t realllllly complain about quality, but I’m going to anyways. Most of the stuff looks pretty good, but its more something you wear for how it looks and less for its ability to last past a season. There were plenty of super cute things that I didn’t think would hold up to going through the spin cycle twice. But yes, Primark is cheap cheap cheap which is really great if you’re trying to stock up on more seasonal fashions. I wouldn’t expect the jackets I get here to last me through the winter, but they definitely look pretty good if I want to change it up from my usual North Face for fall.
Overall, super duper excited that Primark has opened!
