A host of issues have come after that and everytime I bring it in for service It never actually gets resolved. i have a boat that doesnt display fuel levels that is only a year old and it never seems to get fixed for one excuse or anohter. the boat engine coninuesly brakes down and has to come back for warranty repairs but everytime they complete a warranty repair it has a new issue as soon as I pick the boat up. when i purchased the boat here the parts that were upgraded were never returned to me even though I did request them. the batterys that were sold for the trolling system were billed as deep cycle battereys but i recieved basic drive batterys. now the most recent issue the mercury motor has left me stranded in the bay for the 7th time and the dealer just acts as this is a normal thing for a new boat. avoid this center at all cost. go a few miles down the road to big d mairne atleast they have a compatent technician there. i have escelated this through the marine department and have recieved absolute garage customer service from the sales manager at this location.

One Star - Discriminatory Treatment at Dick's Sporting Goods Batting Cage…read moreI visited the Dick's Sporting Goods location at Woodlands Mall on December 20, 2025, around 3:30 PM with my son to use the batting cage, a service we paid for. What should have been a positive experience turned into blatant discriminatory treatment by an older male employee (white hair, beard, thin build, appeared to be Hispanic) working the batting cage area. To be clear: anyone of any background can engage in discriminatory behavior, and that's exactly what happened here. When we entered the cage, it was already a mess with balls and bats scattered everywhere from the previous customers, a woman and her child whom this same employee had just been assisting. We didn't complain; we just started our paid session. While my son was batting, he accidentally made contact with the t-post. This employee shouted at him from across the store, "Hey, that's a $300 bat." Not a polite request to be careful. Not a conversation. A public reprimand from a distance, as if we couldn't afford to replace equipment or were being intentionally careless. When our time ended and we left the batting cage, he came up to me again and, full of sarcasm, he said, "Hey, baseball guy, can you go back in there and pick up all the balls?" The same mess that previous customers had left, which he had never asked them to clean, and which was already there when we arrived. I paid for a service, not a cleanup shift, but I didn't want to escalate in front of my child, so we complied. As we left, he made a sarcastic comment about being a "gentleman and a scholar": passive-aggressive condescension wrapped in polite words. Here's what I observed during the 40 minutes I was there: He watched us like a hawk the entire time we were in the store. He was pleasant and helpful with other customers who appeared to be white, including the woman whose child left the mess we were told to clean up. He stopped what he was doing specifically to police our behavior. This is textbook discriminatory treatment, the kind of microaggression that people of color experience regularly in retail spaces. I don't work for Dick's Sporting Goods. I was a paying customer trying to spend quality time with my son. Instead, we were surveilled, publicly reprimanded, and required to perform cleanup duties that other customers were not. To other customers of color: be aware of how you may be treated at this location. To management: Your employee's behavior on December 20, 2025, from approximately 3:30 to 4:10 PM was unprofessional, discriminatory, and created a hostile environment for my son and me. This employee made my son visibly uncomfortable, and you should consider yourselves fortunate I chose not to make a scene in your store. I don't anticipate corporate accountability, but I wanted this documented.

What can you say about Dicks? Since the pricing is similar at each location, I'll skip that point…read more Located in The Woodlands Mall, this location stands out for the following reasons: -Centrally located, their connecting parking lot is one of the most coveted at the Woodlands Mall. -This location remains clean, and staff is always readily available. -They have a huge selection including those you may not expect, like Free people movement. -They do a pretty good job representing most major sports. However, my favorite feature of the store is the restroom. While it's no fancier than your traditional Walmart restroom, it beats the general mall restroom and is always less populated. While this is not the only store in the woodlands mall with an independent restroom, it's the only one that allows me to use one and then purchase gear for all of my various sports, which is a score for me ...pun intended.

From this shopping experience I remembered why I stopped shopping at REI. I am a jack of all…read moretrades so no particular day might be the same for me and that includes my clothing choice. Follow along because this prelude plays a part in my review. On this day the sun was blazing and I had some demo work outside so I am in a long sleeve sun blocker shirt, work jeans with some stains, a pair of steel toe boots and a boonie hat. I researched and saw that this was one of the few places that carried Buff Coolnet UV protection neck gaiters so this was my primary reason going to REI. I walk into the store start looking around and a sales associate pops out of now where and asked if I needed assistance. Harmless enough until I walk to the location that the neck gaiters were at then I hear on the intercom that Mr. ???? is needed in the area that I was in and the phone rang near me. Still Harmless?? I am still looking around next thing I know I see a CUSTOMER (Loss Prevention Specialist) out of the corner of my eye. At this point, you are probably saying to yourself really....Ok, let's continue then. I see some items that I have been looking for which are on sale so I pick up some Thermocell canisters, natural bug spray, a couple of first aid kits, and some other things I do not remember. I thought these would be some good stocking stuffers for friends and family. I move to look at the carabiners and this CUSTOMER slowly moves over in the same area. Now I am like really dude!!! I look around the store three regular customer on the right side of the store looking at kayaks and bike gear, two older regular customers on the left side with three boxes of boots open, two sales associates at the front. I proceed to go to the backpack sale section and as I am looking at the prices and the craftsmanship of the material, this guy is following my every move passing by me twice looking at the items in my hand. At this point, I mentally say Game On! Most Loss Prevention personnel cannot maintain eye contact because they do not want to be detected or their facial expressions tense up (micro expressions) and if the subject that is being followed make erratic moves then it is hard for them to follow a normal pattern of surveillance so every time he proceeded to follow me I did a quick button hook and end up in the same location as I started from but in a closer proximity to him. After about 15 minutes of this cat and mouse, I turn and walk up to him and said, "Look dude, I have no place to be at the moment and I have the time if you still want to play theses games!" He replied, "Sir, I am just shopping". I said, "If you were just shopping you would not have been following me for the past 15 minutes while I shopped and like I said I have the time." He looks at me and walks away as if he is shopping. I reported the incident to the Team Lead Associate at the front desk and they seemed befuddled and said, we do not have Loss Prevention, sir. I described the guy, black polo, khaki cargo shorts, chaco sandals, hairy arms, dirty brown hair and the Team Lead states let me try to find the guy you described. The store is a small REI and the Team Lead leaves and does not return. At this point I am looking at the front door and no one has exited. The other Sales Associate started ringing up my items a bit nervously making small conversation. Once she found my information in the system for REI rewards, she looked up with a normal customer service smile nervously ( she knew what was going on) and gave me my receipt and told me to have a good day. NOW, I remember why I stopped shopping at REI and order most of my outdoor gear from Backcountry.com

I've done a bit of day hiking before, but never been professionally fitted or been on multi-day trips. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I could not have been more pleased. The staff was very friendly and knowledgable. The guy who helped me spent a lot of time answering questions and helping me be sure I got the best fit- and I ended up with a less expensive boot than I expected (which never happens). They had really good sales at that time, and I ended up coming back the next day to get a new pack. On the following day, I found an equally friendly and knowledgable staff. A friendly staff even after the holidays is the sign of a good shop, I think. Anyway, If you are looking for hiking, camping, or kayaking gear- start here.
