H&M

I have to commend H&M for having such a large men’s section. It’s nothing like the 400 square foot area that Forever 21 has. The men’s section here is usually well stocked & somewhat neat. My only complaint is that the men’s checkout register is rarely open, leaving you to use the register in the woman’s section that usually has a line that takes about ten minutes to move through.

I love H&M. It’s my go-​to spot when I want to buy locally instead of online. Unfortunately, the Opry Mills location has declined dramatically in recent months. The biggest problem is that the employees move like zombies, robotically going about their tasks as though they hate their lives and despise their jobs. As a result, checkout is a nightmare, taking twice as long as necessary. The employee couldn’t even be bothered to open his mouth to speak, making him almost impossible to understand. He asked to see my ID while my purchases were still covering the counter, confusing things even more. Worst of all, the entire store was a complete mess, with clothes packed onto racks so tightly you can’t even find anything and items strewn about and all over the floor. I love H&M, so I’m hoping they open one in Hendersonville, since the Opry Mills mall can no longer seem to attract decent employees.

The store is a complete mess. Things are thrown everywhere. The prices are all unclear. The employees are lazy and unhelpful. There way nothing wrong with the clothes it was the state the store was in. Which is the only reason giving them 2 stars instead of just one. After rummaging for about 30 minutes I found 2 pairs of jeans I liked. I was unsure if they were going to fit me or not. I went to the fitting rooms but they were blocked so I had to go all the way around. When I got there, there was 2 employees talking to each other at the doorway and didn’t even acknowledge me. By that point I was just done and I just left leaving the jeans laying somewhere.

The selections here are so hit and miss! I’ve been when everything in the store is just hideous and I’ve been when they actually have sone cute stuff. The prices are more like department store sale prices and you can find a MUCH better variety and MUCH cheaper clothes on sales and clearance racks elsewhere in the mall.
When I went the employees didn’t seem to like being there at all… and one pet peeve of mind is when employees are standing around talking when there is a line of people to help. I just don’t see what the hype is!
One positive: if you are eating at Chuy’s the waiting buzzer thing should still get a signal in here so you can look around while you eat. Otherwise, just skip and look for sales elsewhere.

Full of trendy young thing clothes, I selected a long cardigan sort of Nordic with bobbles, tried it on — had a laugh and decided not to spend $ 50, next tried on a purple skater skirt that Pablo picked out, skater skirts being the correct length for me as I am 5′ 0. With black tights and flats this could work methinks and Ta Da $ 17.99 in their register. Line to pay was long and the chap seemed a bit desultory. Gave us a chance to evaluate the musical programming.
Not overpriced and a nice selection but a bit on the small side for my curves.

I’m thrilled H&M is here. I don’t care for driving waaay out to Opry Mills, but I do. If you’ve been to other H&M’s, you’ll notice this one is not as great as others. I can’t put my finger on it, but the selection never seems great. The mens selection looks decent, but the kids and womens departments are lacking. I rarely see people on the floor, and there is usually one register open and the line is a mile long no matter what time of day. H&M is one of my favorite stores, great fashion at inexpensive prices. However, I prefer going to the Atlanta location for more selection.

What a let down. I’ve been to H&M stores in Atlanta and other cities and cleaned UP. I was pretty excited to hear Nashville was getting a location. I’ve appreciated their affordable fashion forward style, even if some of the designs were too bizarre for my taste. If most H&M stores are an 8 on the fashion forward scale, this one is a 2.
I know people have families and plus size waist lines, but I didn’t know H&M would cater so vastly to these shoppers. The fashion element was completely sacrificed in the name of accommodating overweight mommies. Again, no offense intended to these shoppers, but the mall is loaded with other stores like this already. I wanted to be the target client, damn it. Instead, it felt like I was walking around a strange Forever 21/​Old Navy hybrid store. I had to check a pricetag to make sure we were actually in H&M.
I’m embarrassed that this is the «Nashville rendition» of H&M, and that people from other cities who visit here will take away the impression that the store had to be modified and toned down to survive in our city. Yikes

I was quite excited for H&M to open in my hometown. I’ve been to this store 4 times since it opened. I prefer to shop online with European retailers Asos, Zara, Topman and River Island because they follow standards for sizing their clothes. This is true for H&M as well. European clothing retailers are very fashion forward unlike comparable American retailers. European retailers also do not practice vanity sizing that leaves healthy adults without a size choice.
Sizing observation for this location:
70% — Large and Extra Large
25% — Medium
5% — Small or Extra Small
The clothes at this particular location are plain and cheap. It might as well be old navy without the gaudy brand name plastered on everything. This is not a comparable H&M to the ones in London with the respectable collections. Americans are generally not fashion forward and H&M takes advantage of that by stocking their less desirable clothes here. They also know that most Americans maintain their BMI’s between 28.00 — 35.00 and therefore they stock the most homely and roomy clothes they manufacture for the locals to buy here. They don’t know any different. This is great for the average customer that shops at this mall but disappointing for those thinking they finally had an option in this town.

Wife was able to get almost an entire winter wardrobe on the tax free weekend for her work and it only cost me 200 to do. Saved me close to 200 on winter cloths

I despise large malls, a la Shopryland, but I couldn’t stay away. And I am mighty happy that I braved the mall. Scored a breezy summer dress and some basic pieces.
It isn’t the largest H&M I’ve visited, but for Nashville, it is just right. I visited on a Saturday afternoon. There was a short line for both the dressing rooms and the register, but they were relatively fast paced and friendly.

Wow! A big store with great selections. This place is brand new and was certainly bum rushed by all of the H&M starved Nashvillian’s. I visited this store on opening weekend and the store was well stocked and was very organized — even during all of the high traffic.
The selections are easy to get to and they styles are cool & very affordable.
My only complaint is that they could have additional dressing rooms, there’s always a very long line. If you’re ready to make your purchase, the registers in the men’s sections always seems to be shorter than the registers @ the women’s section. Happy shopping!
