Nordstrom Rack

This is a funny situation in posting my review. The last review I wrote for Nordstrom Rack was for this location. I went to the Broadway location the other day and was ready to write a review of that location when I realized I posted on the Broadway site. At any rate, I was not thrilled with any one of them. Prices are high in both locations. The one on the East side seems to cater to a less stylish crowd. I hate when stores do this. Maybe it is a marketing tool. They check out which type of customer is in a particular area and stock up with what they believe are the right styles for each location. At any rate, both stores are messy, especially the clearance racks. Which by the way are not very clearance prices. Sorry, but don’t care for either store. The staff in both seems very nice and accommodating. It is just the clothes which also most you have to hand wash. Again, not my liking.

I’ve always been a fan of the selection here and the service has always been great.
I don’t like when staff members interrupt my conversation with my husband to talk about how his clothes fit. Ummmmm

Just had the worst experience ever. Nordstrom rack just lost out on money due to lack of customer service. First off, the woman running the fitting rooms kept repeating that they closed in 10 minutes which we were aware of hence trying on clothes (however it was 8:40). The woman was rushing me and practically grabbed the clothes out of my hand. My boyfriend and I shared a room and the short bald security guard was called in because my boyfriend brought a pair of shoes in to ask my opinion. He was obviously picked on in high school as he flexed on us for bringing a pair of shoes in the room for less than a minute. Needless to say, we never finished trying on our clothes because of how we were treated caused us to leave. I am a long time rack shopper and I can say I will never go back to this location again. Another thing I regret is spending the 300some dollars in shoes. We should have walked out as soon as we were treated poorly.

Thought I left a bag at check out! Went in and they looked through the footage and It actually just fell out of my bag! Thanks for being so helpful!

I LOVE this place. As soon as I walked in a saw a whole selection of discounted Clarisonics– hello skin gamechanger. But this place is the bomb for shoe shopping! Hands down this in my favorite place to buy baby/​toddler shoes. I can get way carried away with their selection of Nike’s, Toms, and Dr. Martens for tots. They even carry design plus size clothing. Handbags are also nice here. Last time I was in they had Shinola watches which are made in Detroit. I am hot for one of these– big time. They didn’t have the chrono I was eyeing but offered to put me on a VIP list and will call when they come in. You can also pick up my fav men’s cologne here– BLV black. It is sex in a bottle– get some. Trust.

So I just went to Scottsdale and shopping seemed obvious there, and Nordstrom popped up in front of me, naturally I went in and bought a gorgeous shirt and a pair of earrings, that were on sale, because you know how expensive stuff can get there.
So the other day a girl at CVS told me about Nordstrom rack and I had to go, you can find great things for half or less than the regular price. You have search, search and you will find! Maybe even a Ted Baker blouse for $ 27, Cool huh?

The clothing selection is not that great BUT the shoes and hair product prices make up for it and beyond!!! Such a shame I wish the clothes were just as awesome.

They have a great selection of quality clothes and accessories. Anna was tremendous since she was able to check me cashier me at another checkout area since I was paying with a credit card. Anna was very helpful and told us about the Nordstrom card and benefits about $ 100.00 free alterations. They have lots of private parking, roomy isles, markdowns and clearance items clearly displayed. I will be back again for some more clothing and accessories.

I love Nordstrom Rack but this one is not one of my favorites. Here’s why…
MERCHANDISE: I probably visit about twice a month and there is not a lot of new merchandise. I see items on the clearance racks that have been there forever. Shoes never seem to turnover. It’s the same sandals all summer and the same boots all winter. Very disappointing. They really don’t have much in the way of trendy clothes. I have found the quality at NR has deteriorated over the years too.
DRESSING ROOMS: They now have men escorting women to the women’s dressing rooms. I feel uncomfortable with this. «Just let me know if you need a different size.» Yea, right, I’m supposed to open the door to let you hand me a different size — NOT!
STAFF: Be mindful of the staff they hire here. I’ve walked out a few times with the security tag on the garment! I live 70 miles from this «Rack» and was pretty upset when I got home. They are trained to hype up the customer with «How is your day going?, Do you have a Nordstrom Debit Card?, We are having a ‘clear the rack’ event this weekend.» All the while, they forget to take the stupid security tag off! ARRGGHH — Just ring me up and stop with all the hype. I’m so over it!
NORDSTROM DEBIT CARD: I know this will give you points, but I don’t like the way it takes 3 – 4 business days before it hit’s your account. They claim it’s my bank’s fault which could be. But any other place I use my Debit card, the charge hits within minutes.

Am I the only person who hasn’t been to this store? No one ever told me I had to go there for shoes! It has an emmence (where is spell checker!) shoe department, and lots of shoes in every size and mens to size16! My husband wears 14 and he thinks thats big! They weren’t exactly cheep but I talked to an excited lady who found a pair that werent even online! That must be good. The clothes werren’t my taste, jeans with holes in them but I know the kids like those styles. I wished they had home accesories which is the reason I only gave 3 stars… the amount of shoes are worth seeing! The people were very nice and it was a fun shopping experience!

This is one of my favorite places to shop. I rarely come out of here without something in hand. The section of purses is always my favorite to check out and I love the selection of Kate Spade. The staff is super helpful and I love the handheld for easy checkout. Being a haute look shopper I love that I can return any items that’s don’t work out right to store.

This place is a hit or miss. sometimes I will find some great deals. and walk out with bags of stuff. and somedays I walk out empty handed. Store is very organized and clean, and the employees are very very nice which is a huge plus. I guess I’ve just been spoiled by the Nordstrom Rack’s back home in Northern Cali… but since I’m in Tucson this place will just have to do!

The staff here is very friendly and top notch. What keeps me from giving 5 stars is that I don’t think this location has as much to offer as other Nordstrom racks. I don’t seethe in house tailor, designer boutique area or higher end jewelry. But alas, that is mostly for window shopping anyway. I do love the shoe section. Good selection and some great deals.
I will say they do have high end stuff sprinkled throughout the store. Last time I was in I saw a jimmy choo purse on the clearance rack for $ 1,000 (60% off fyi).

Like a lot of other clearance/​discounted stores, it’s hit or miss here at the Nordstrom Rack. Even with the discounted Nordstrom prices, I find myself sticking to the sales racks when it comes to the clothes. The shoes seem to be more reasonably priced overall. I also like coming here for their stock of CK bras and underwear.
Pros: Quality merchandise, name brands, wide range of sizes in shoes, and clearance sections.
Cons: Prices can still be high (once saw a pair of sunglasses that were cheaper online), racks can be a bit disorganized, and weekends aren’t the best time to go.

Way back in the day, I would go to the Rack in San Diego, it was the source of much my wardrobe. Today I go by the rack and everything is marked up more than I really want to spend, yet I go back. I have only bought shoes, undershirts, and couple of watches since its been open. The other day I got a pair of Sperry deck shoes for 10 bucks, this the exception not the rule. I am gald it is here and the staff is nice and somewhat helpful (that is is a good thing I hate someone following me around asking questions). I am glad it is here, but I tend to forget about it, unless I have to go to Home Depot (I hate going to Home Depot, so it is kinda distraction).

I like what Nordstrom rack is however this one is still struggling to get its inventory built up. Nordstrom rack in other cities I have been to just seem to have more to buy and better up keep.
Sadly as is the case with most Tucson retailers the onslaught of weekend citizens come through and decimate the store only to leave the staff cleaning up the mess. Come on a weekday and it’s not bad the shoe selection is hit or miss and the mens department seems to be slim on selection.
That being said the selection of ties, cuff links, shirts, and accessories is great and when I have found a pair of shoes they were reasonably priced and in good condition.
The staff ranges from helpful to condescending and the location is great as some of the best shopping in Tucson seems to be concentrated in the Tucson mall area.

Personally I am kind of passed that designer clothing stage… but I still can’t help not to check out this place. Since I cant really go through the entire store for you (so you can do that yourself in person), I am just make a simple comparison… definitely more selection than off5th (which has very limit merchandise) but that just in Tucson. If you put this place next to the one in MI (Neiman Marcus Last call or Off 5^th) this will be like a XS in size vs M.
But somehow I did found a pair converse that I had never seen before $ 16.99…score! I also look at the suite and sports jacket section it was kind of… meh
But all you shopping «w_​ore» out there knows you just have to check back places like this… about every 2 weeks in order to get something good and unique. Since I am live at the other side of town. I just have to try my luck next time I am in the area.

Growing up at HATED going to the «Rack» But for some reason this one here in Tucson has changed my mind. I am in LOVE with the shoe department. there are so many boots and heels to choose from and all in a size 6.
Sadly I still can’t find clothes that appeal to me here, but I will always look.
The staff is very friendly and and it comes to time to check out it done in an orderly fashion no one running or cutting in line to take your place.
Best time to go in a week night when it slow, and you don’t have the weekend crowd traffic to deal with.

A Nordstrom in Tucson? Almost! Nordstrom Rack is what you would get if Nordstrom and Ross had babies… a clearance store, if you will.
What you should expect: Designer brands.
What you should not expect: Rock bottom prices.
It’s STILL a Nordstorms. It’s still pricey. Just not as pricey.
I founds some great deals in the beauty department when I was there on Black Friday. The staff member that I saw on the floor was kind and offered me assistance, and the cashier that rang me up didn’t seem fazed at all by the madness. If I still lived in Tucson, Nordstrom Rack would be on my list of regular shops.

Retail therapy has a new venue in Nordstrom’s Rack which almost makes Tucson an audible radar blip on the style spectrum. The clothes here are racked by price, not designer, so thrift takes precedent over brand. The selection doesn’t knock one’s socks off; Michael Kors doesn’t produce shivers, and large sizes seem over-​represented. The shoe selection isn’t too much more impressive than DSW and a great deal more expensive. The selection of styles represents the over-​40 Stein Mart/Chico’s demographic more than the Guess/​Bebe crowd. The dressing rooms are clean and run by an efficient little herd of blue tooth-​wearing Nordstrom’s employees. Jean choices range from Diesel to Miss Me, but no Rock and Republic. Nike, Adidas, and other athletic labels do not seem to be marked down at all. Glad it’s here, but the Rack is like the Cleveland of fashion instead of the Mecca.
