Ross Dress for Less

It’s a Ross. Hit or miss on items. I’ve been here several times and it’s alright. The sales associates are usually by the fitting rooms or ringing you up. If you find what you need then awesome! If not, oh well. Still an okay location :)

This Ross is a little dirty but other then that they have a lot of stuff to choose from plus they had a lot of clearance items

It Is What It Is
Ross Dress for Less, like most off-​price department store chains, is a distancing echo in a sea of retail. In large part, online retailers have usurped brick and mortar outlets. Nonetheless, many customers enjoy the tactile and visual stimulation of shopping that only the later can provide. The experience at Ross stores is akin to shopping at a thrift store, only the items are new. Customer service is weak to non-​existent, organization is lacking, and the quality of the merchandise can be hit-​or-​miss. Still, it can be totally worth your time when you find a nifty household item or a perfect pair of shoes or jeans.
Happy shopping!

Terrible, horrible management. Store is a hot mess. Cashiers are assholes. This store is perfect fit for the ghetto that is aurora and it’s citizens.

I love me some Ross — but this location leaves something to be desired.
Maybe it’s the right-​off-​colorado-​blvd-​busy-​as-​a-​mofo placement, but the selection for the most part is limited and lacking. Not sure if this is due to being picked-​over or just that they get the crap end of the stick when it comes to stocking.
Speaking of location, getting into/​out of the parking area for this whole place is sometimes an absolute nightmare.
I also don’t like the two levels — it could be great, but the layout of the store needs a re-​vamp in my opinion. There’s also no elevator or escalator — which, while I am not personally affected, seems like it could hinder elderly or handicapped customers from shopping there — especially men, since all their attire is located on the second level. Just a thought.
Regardless, the staff have always been friendly and helpful, the store is clean and never too packed.

This store is always dirty and overcrowded. There is crap on the floor every time I go in here. They never have more than two cashiers working even when there is 10 people in line. Not a fan of Ross in general but this one is by far the worst.

The selection and the clientele are what I hate about this place. It’s definitely cleaner than some Ross stores, but the other customers tend to ruin the «bargain-​hunting» experience for me. Slamming me with their baskets, letting their children run amok, and being really gross in the fitting rooms (I won’t go into detail). I rarely see associates working the floor (i.e. cleaning, picking up garments) and I’ve never been asked if I needed help. At least the cashiers are usually friendly, making the end result of my one or two item purchase a little better. The prices are great, but their plus-​size selection leaves a lot to be desired. I usually go in looking for jeans or something suitable for work, and I come out with about 3 dresses.

I have a love/​hate relationship with this location.
Love-​hello, the name says it all – Dress for Less
Love-​Two levels so it seems like it’s bigger and more spread out
And that’s about it!
Hate-​The location. Right off of Colorado and 25, it makes it a mess getting here due to traffic and random transients crossing the road. Parking at this location sucks as well thanks to a Best Buy, DSW, Village Inn and PetCo being in the same shopping center.
Hate-​The selection here, it’s really hit or miss. I have to be in the mood to sift through clothes and it’s usually really unorganized.
Hate-​The staff, they have been rude for the most part whether it be their mood with having to deal with this place on the daily or that they dont speak English. Who knows.
Hate-​The smell, it rivals some thrift stores I’ve been in. Funk is in the air my friends.
Oh yeah I forgot about one more love – the people watching. Absolutely superb! I like to play a game with myself guessing the number of wild, unattended children who are running around the store on the day I go in.

In terms of clothing selection, not the place to go. The home selection however is amazing and has great prices. I have found many great deals on home goods. The staff lack attention to their work and the cashiers take forever to ring you up. The store is a jumble of everything and disorganized. I would recommend to go for home goods but definitely not for clothing.

I have always loved shopping at Ross. I find good value and styles that I like. I use them when I need something nicer than what I dependably find at thrift stores. I can count on them for nearly always having something that will work for what I need.
Knowing this, when my nearly-​a-​step-​daughter Sammi needed to find actual formal dress for her theater juries at Denver School of the Arts, I knew where to go.
Once I got there, I realized I was in a little over my head, and it must have shown because I was approached by a staffer Tracy. I explained what we needed, and how it needed to look. She is a mother, and knew exactly how to help. She took time away from her work to help me find a half dozen potentials, that were then thinned out to one AWESOME dress! It was PERFECT! I could have easily been there for hours looking over the racks, and getting frustrated, finally leaving empty-​handed, but instead, i left with a super value on a dress that garnered Sammi compliments from her friends AND her instructor. THAT, when you are 13, is miraculous!!!
Winner!

What a mess.
Really? I’m too busy watching my step, stepping over the stuff spilling out into the aisles, to be able to shop.
The others in town are kept better (FtC, Loveland)
The Boulder one, now closed, was a pigstye like this one.
Is Christmas a good excuse?
I think not.

The location downtown is OK. I get a lot of nice things, for a good price. No complaints.

Thrift store, department store, vintage store, clothier? I settled on Department store even though I was unaware for years that the upstairs was chockablock full of discounted housewares and linens.
I guess I am a bargain shopper, but I don’t buy just because something is a bargain. I mostly only buy when I can get a bargain on something I want at a bargain price. Get it?
This store is not full of bargains, it’s full of the possibility of bargains. I know that those of you who are in for instant gratification can’t stand it because it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Still, I have a closet full of new, not used, designer items that I bought here for «bucks». If you know what you like, what looks good on you, and what will stand the test of seasons in your mind and on your body, you can do well here.
If your kid wants something that you will never in your lifetime pay full price for, you can use Ross as a bargaining tactic. If you have a housefull of kids and want to buy a bundle of clothes, take them home to try on, and return the rejects then put it on your card and Ross is the place. Or, if you are looking for a shirt in a certain color, a certain fabric and a certain cut that you 100% know is not on the racks this season. Which for me, is often.
When I want a nubby tweed sweater, that’s what I want. Or a pair of red capris. Who the heck cares what Paris thinks I should wear this season – I probably wore those the season the before last anyway, or it never will look good on me anyway and I have enough sense to know it.
Don’t forget to check out the upstairs. You might find that serving dish or a set of flatware you’ve been looking for, or the men’s and children’s stuff. There’s also «never been used» luggage, handbags and shoes.
P. S. Leave the kids at home. This place is for seriously experienced shoppers.

I am writing a review of this store because I am very, very happy with my purchases today. I got:
a big, comfy mom sweater (even though I’m not a mom)
a pair of Dockers-​like boat shoes (yay! I’ve been looking for a pair), and
a throw for my couch that looks like it’s been made out of a cable-​knit sweater (I’ve been prowling for one of those at a cheaper-​than-​Pottery-​Barn price!).
Ross is a great place to go bargain hunting at, assuming that, on the day you go, they have ANYTHING worth buying. Sometimes, it is all junk. Occasionally, you find pots and pans like E and I got for 75% less than they were originally marketed at in some high-​end cooking shop. Joy :)
That being said, the place is a mess and looks like little gremlins went through it, wreaking havoc and misplacing stuff. And sometimes E and I can find nothing and instead search for THE ugliest item in the store. My family calls it «Christmas gift revenge,» even though they never gift the hideous things they find. They just laugh over the absurdity of it all.
My goal at Ross is to go in and look for stuff that came straight out of a Pottery Barn catalog — that is the style I am trying to attain on a VERY low budget. Keeping my sense of style in mind, I have come away with some great picture frames, bedding, blankets, and miscellaneous housewares, including an adorable tea pot and a paisley-​print tote bag that I LOVE. I also go in with low expectations, since ¾ of the time I set foot in the store, I find nothing worth my money.
Ross lets me set free my whole housewife/​soccer mom/​closet interior designer side. Even if I find nothing most of the time, I think the treasures for bargain-​basement prices that I have picked up after years of frequenting the place give it 4 stars in my book. Yay, I’m a fan!

I really had to ask myself today, after shopping at Ross…“what am i willing to endure to save a few bucks?”
First let me say that both Ross and TJ Maxx are the shopping equivalent to birth control. I can’t imagine ANYONE who works there would EVER want to have children after listening, day after day, to the screaming monsters with their clueless parents. I am already planning my sterilization after just 40 minutes!
The bargains are really hit or miss, sometimes it’s amazing, other times it’s hideous. And then there’s the 8 item rule for the dressing room. Are you really freaken serious that my 9^th item has to sit with the attendant and I have to make an extra trip to retreive it? That will really discourage shoplifters, why didn’t I think of that???
Then finally there’s the line to buy your items. So sorry I didn’t hear you call my number over the tarradactyl, I mean brat in line behind me.
will I go back, OF Course I will! But there’s a part of me that literally feels as though i’m selling my soul for that BCBG jumpsuit!

Aside from the ever-​present aroma of vomit and pickles I really do like Ross. I mean lets be honest, where else can you get some great deals and be entertained by some of the best people-​watching to be had in Denver all at the same time?
*side note: the best people watching local EVER is the Illinois State Fair… trust me on this*
This is not the cleanest Ross location, but I prefer it over all others. They have the least «picked-​over» selection and manage to keep the store in some form of noticable organization. Rarely do I buy clothes here, I find them to be rather cheap and of the polyester variety, but occasionally you can come across a cute Calvin Klein dress or BCBG top.
The main reason I love Ross is for their unique and super cheap selection of household décor, kitchen items and linens. Probably 50% of my living room décor comes from Ross. I always have people asking me «this is so cute where did you get it?» and I love being able to answer «$ 5.99 at Ross bitches!»
They also have a suprisingly large selection of pet products from toys, leashes, beds, bowls etc…
My favorite purchase? An AeroGarden for $ 30 on clearance. I have enough cherry tomatoes to fill a hot tub… thank you Ross!

This store is like a lottery, giving away misc. items for almost nothing. Well next to nothing around (50−75% off). Be sure to inspect the item. If there is any anything slightly wrong then they drop another large percentage off of the price. Also it is really just like a lottery, It’s very hard to predict when the shipments come in. Now the shoe section is a wreck. Size 6 shoes in with the size 16’s and so on. So you pretty much have to glance at every pair of shoes. Also some times two or three trips within a few months turn up the real deals. Designer and brand name belts for around 10 or 12 bucks. All this and maybe you find the coolest shoes for 20 to 30 dollars. Happy bargain hunting guys !!

Sometimes, we have better days, sometimes things arent rosy after all. We have been purchasing alot of stuffs for our personal usage, for the used to be apartment and now for the house.
At times, the place is in order. At times, its seems that a tornado has strike up this place. Still I like coming back to this ROSS, arent sure why… perhaps a mysterious magnectic pull or «attraction».
Sometimes, the wait line to check out at the cashier can be painstaking, sometimes its not. So its all depends on the day you went and the time of hour you are there.
I am a happy camper when I can get what I am looking for, sometimes unexpectedly or when they DO stock up on things I have been «eyeing»…
All in all is an OK experience.

I probably shouldn’t do a review for Ross because I’d rather buy my clothes from a garage sale. And the garage is on fire. And there’s a giant demon stabbing me with flaming daggers. Anyway, you get the point.
My son wanted to go in to see if they had this kind of certain brand of shoe, so I braced myself and we entered the mess that is Ross.
There is no customer service. Zero.
The place is a disaster and the aisles are exactly 11 inches wide.
There are NO items available for men. No shoes, no clothes, no socks, no nothing.
So — I write this review for no other reason than to let men — and the women who love them — know that they need not waste their time at this particular Ross.
But then that begs the question — if you really love someone, why would you shop for them at Ross?

I came here for day one of Christmas shopping last night… I enjoy Ross because I can find anything I need. BUT this store is a freaking mess!!! NOTHING is all that organized. I remember the purses being organized by color… This was not the case. I found one for my sister so OK whatever.
I went upstairs to find toys for my little nieces and I did not expect what I saw… the isles were a safety hazard! The floor was covered in toys and kids (not for sale) …the shelves were slightly barren.
HMMM… I think that it would take about 4 minutes of someones time to pick these things up and make the isle a little less of a toy explosion… or maybe when you take your kids to Ross… I dunno … don’t leave them in the toy isle on the ground with the toys… Just a thought.
Over by the pet stuff was worse… they might as well just put some caution tape up on the ends of the isles because you could not walk in it anyway!
This place is a trip… I know its the holidays… your store is a disaster.
I get a headache when I go here… Its cheap and that’s why I go back… Not the customer service or the ambiance. hehehe
cheap Christmas = Ross…
