Staff is very helpful and friendly. Jenn assisted me immediately and got what I came in for. Austin Rix also went above and beyond in double checking for additional inventory. Highly recommend this location. read more

Whenever I'm looking for a certain shoe Amy is always ready to help. They usually are all stocked up. Just went to the Presidents' Day sale and the prices of the shoes were so good both my kids walked out with 2 pairs each. read more

I called to inquire if big 5 carried a certain running shoe in stock. After talking to a very pleasant young lady, I was put on hold while she checked. Then a young man got on the line, and was extremely short and rude. And because HE didn't know the shoe brand, questioned ME like I didn't know what shoe brand I was talking about. Spend your money elsewhere you don't need to be subjected to rude associates who try to make customers feel inferior. read more

We come here several times per year for sporting goods. They have pretty much everything. Even w Covid going on, they still have pretty good selections of most items. We have bought stuff for swimming, soccer, baseball, football, guns / shooting, work out clothing, camping, etc. They have solid Covid prevention practices in place including a requirement for masks (currently mandatory to enter the store) which is good!! read more

after calling to confirm they had stock in an item I drove nearly an hour away from my already 2 hour drive to get the item just for them to tell me they are out of stock upon arrival . complete laziness lol . read more

Absolutely have to give a shoutout to the staff at this Big 5 -- specifically KC and Fernando. I walked in today to pickup some items from their one-day sale. As soon as I walked in, KC greeted me with a friendly smile. She asked me if there was anything I needed in particular. I told her there were several things. She had Fernando help me who walked around the store with me and picked out every single item on my list. He even searched for the color water bottle I wanted, moving several water bottles to find the aqua color for me. When I checked out, KC helped me. She explained that the items would first come up with their regular price until she scanned the coupon. When a few items came up as the wrong price, she helped me resolve the issue (which involved Fernando having to swap out a couple items; totally my fault for not specifying I wanted the 2 outlet wall plug with usb). All in all, this is the best customer service I have received in a long time! Keep it up, Big 5, and thanks to KC and Fernando. I will definitely be back. read more

Great service, fantastic product knowledge and aware of where each item is instead of saying somewhere on isle...

If you come here around 2:30 pm you will not receive good service. I requested a shoe size and had to wait 15 minutes just to find out it didn't fit. I saw 4 employees and only 1 was helping out. 2 of the employees were flirting at the front and completely ignoring their job. And the other one was avoiding the crowd wandering off elsewhere. Shout out to Chad, he noticed I needed help and went out of his way to help, while having a good attitude. read more

The employees and the managers are always very helpful and nice! They always go above and beyond to help me find what I am looking for and if they don't have it at their store they check other stores for me me! Great staff!! read more

The staff at this location is very kind and helpful. They have everything my brother needs/wants and the store is always fully stocked. The prices are also really good. They have a lot of sales and coupons on select items which helps out a lot. I was able to get some really cheap camping gear for under a hundred dollars. read more

Fantastic place for ammo. One of the only retailers that isn't ripping off its customers with inflated amo prices. Call Tuesday morning, get in line, they open at 10. I was able to get everything I wanted, and it's all very very reasonable for prices. read more

This Big 5 is the worst Ive been to. The dont carry as much stock or item as most store. Prices are okay on sale items but most everything else is on the pricey side. The customer service here is terrible. I was looking for a softball glove for my 10 year old daughter. I ask for assistance and this employee totally pretends to know what kind of glove we will need for her age and for the type of softball she will be playing, then I take her to her first day of practice to find out the glove is a T-ball glove and meant for 5-7 year olds. I would have been better off on my own. read more

I was helped by Jennifer. As soon as I walked in she asked me if I needed help with anything or if I needed pointing out of what I was looking for. She directed me to the right location and when I couldn't find out what I wanted she was able to come help me out. She not only recommended the best item but she didn't try to recommend the most expensive. She was honest, very polite, very respectful and extremely helpful. She made my experience shopping at the store more enjoyable and easier as well. read more

Went looking for a golf shirt. They have tons of stuff for men, nothing for women. I would like to see them offer gold clothing etc for women as well. read more

I asked for a pair of shoes they were dirty , I asked for a 2nd pair they were dirtier, 3rd pair came out and you can tell they had been walked on. The guy (Ivan) was well aware I wanted a clean pair of white shoes but instead kept bringing out even dirtier white shoes. When I told the other young man he apologized. Meanwhile employee Ivan went and hid in the back. read more

Standing in line the gentleman holding the door was very courteous, then there was a moody manager, she was a short haired young lady who wore a blue shirt, but what turned it around was the cashier named Bernadette, she was very helpful and made me feel like a very valuable customer if Big 5 knows what they are doing I hope they know they have an asset in Bernadette. Please promote Bernadette to management. This review gets 5 stars because of her. read more

Horrible experience trying to shop at this retailer. I have purchased guns previously at another location no problem. This store refused to sell me a firearm for no reason other than I had my husband with me (for opinion, and sometimes I shop with my family)they did not even run a background check on me or him and told us they wouldnt sell it. I am well over 21 years old with a valid "real" state drivers license and proof of residency. Apparently they do not want business.i left feeling I was treated like a criminal or discrinated because I was a woman. read more

I always get great customer service from here. They will help you find things in store or online if they don't have it in stock. The store is always really clean and organized. I always come here for baseball gear and snow gear as well. Great deals and there are always coupons available. read more

Chris K was very friendly and helpful with finding me the right boots for my needs. Amazing and hardworking dude!

The store is on the left side of the way to Costco's gas station. I often go to this shop. The reason was because of the better prices and excellent assistance. Big5 has a lot of stores. I think the service of the Corona store is the best one. My place is about the same distance to the Chino Hills store and the Corona store, but their service was much different. After a one-time shopping on the Chino Hills, I changed to just come to this Corona store to buy things. read more

Good selection. I always like coming to Big 5. Bought a bunch of baseball equipment for my son who's starting t-ball. This is all dampened by the rude chick working the register. Looked miserable, never smiled and was rude. May e she had a long day and was taking it out on us. Also she relished the fact she was denying our coupon. Oh well...hopefully Dicks opened around this area soon. Visit was on 02-01-2017 @ 1640 hours. read more

A wonderful experience on a Friday afternoon. I want to give a big thanks to the team at Big-5 sporting goods. I was looking for a Coleman propane bottle top stove. As I had not had any luck at other sporting good stores. I came into Big-5 expecting to find one on the shelf and I was disappointed when the Coleman brand was not present. I was greeted by an employee who quickly assisted me in an online search and came up with a perfect alternative made by Stansport. She save the day and saved my weekend camping trip. Thank you so much. It's great that you lead by example for your whole team to see. read more

There have been many sporting goods stores in SoCal but none have stood the test of time like Big 5. The reason they are still around is because they have decent prices and excellent customer service. Their employees are very knowledgeable which is rare these days. Victor was extremely patient and answered all of my questions. Their selection is also surprising given the size of the store, they have equipment for everything from hunting to volleyball. Love this place. read more

Epic customer service!! Thanks to the lady that helped me with my card search. She tried so hard... But they didn't have it. Really appreciate it. Also her outfit was awesome. read more

Decent place for getting things, but far from the cheapest place in town. read more

Incredibly helpful and friendly staff, namely Victor. The during my past two visits he has been exceedingly helpful and knowledgeable at the firearms counter, and thanks to his clear direction, helped me understand and deal with the complexities of CA ammunition regulations that previously prevented me from purchasing ammunition. Give that man a raise for the love of God. He has earned that location a long-term customer. If you're reading this Victor, thanks again man. You're a lifesaver. read more

We just had great customer service here! On a Friday night, five minutes before closing, Victor, the manager, provided us with excellent service. He made sure we found what we needed, opened up a second register, and treated us with the utmost professionalism. He engaged in courteous conversation and thanked us for our service. Phenomenal experience!! read more

First visit here to this location. The store looked really clean and organized, and the staff on duty was very friendly. I came for some shoes that I saw online but they were not carried in store :-( read more

This store has amazing employees. Like other reviews have said I was helped by Jennifer who was wonderful. My physical therapist recommended a certain type of shoe and resistance band for my ankle sprain rehab and Jennifer knew exactly the type of band and shoes I needed because she had gone through a similar injury. She offered the exact same advice as my physical therapist so I knew she knows her stuff. I hope this store knows how valuable she is because she was helping so many people and had such a positive attitude. I am for sure coming back here the next time I need shoes. read more

I usually purchase from the Riverside location, but for the first time I bought from this store. I was greeted right away. I noticed their firearms selection was better so I made a purchase (Stoeger "Double Defense" 12 ga. shotgun). Manager quickly and efficiently worked on the purchase/paperwork too. I like this Big 5. Thank you. read more

Super nice employee, can't remember her name, sorry! She played soccer growing up so wasn't too familiar with softball equipment for littles, but made sure when she was done showing us tons of cleats she sent Josh our way. He picked up where she left off showing us bats and helmets and random things. He knew we wanted to get in and out and was able to make that happen. Thank you for teaching us the ropes! Kudos to your team! read more

Stopped by Big 5 off McKinley this afternoon with no expectations; just to grab a couple things for my three year old son's tee ball league. Everybody from the Manager to Sales Associates to the Cashiers were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and VERY helpful. I will be sharing this with the rest of the league, thank you! read more

Great employees great selections. Came in for some ammo that was on sales. They had it in stock and the manager was prompt and knowledgeable regarding what I needed. Will definitely shop with them again! read more

I put one star because I can't put zero stars. Every time I went to this location the service sucks. I waited over 10 minutes at the gun counter for some ammo before having to find someone to help me, after asking the girl at the front for assistance she said she would send someone to help. I waited another 10 minutes then finally the manager came over, he looked at me and asked if I needed help I said yes then he just proceeded to do paperwork without helping me or further acknowledging me. I will never go here again and I wouldn't recommend anyone else go either. There are other sporting goods stores that have excellent customer service. read more

I've shopped here in the past. It's your average Big 5. I was going in to big 5 to buy a bucket of ammo that was a one day sale. I had stopped at the one in Irvine and they were sold out. So on my way back home i called this location and Tess helped me on the phone. She was super nice, very sweet voice and extremely helpful. She even took the time to call two other stores to see if they had any ammo left. The five stars and the review is solely for Tess. Showing what true customer service is. Exemplary employee. read more

I generally come here to get baseball and softball items for my kids and for the most part, I can find what I am looking for for a good price. I don't get sticker shock here as much as other sports places but I also know going in that for the price, and considering that I am buying seasonally (kids outgrow everything after a season half the time!) I can get more for the money here. Good for balls, jerseys, socks, and inexpensive cleats as well as for spectator stuff: chairs, stand cushions, etc. I find though that if you are looking for the higher end, top of the line brands, this is not the place. Just understand that coming in and you won't be disappointed. read more

Came here to get sleds for my kids. Found one we liked and needed another one. The manager was really nice and went to the back to get another one for us. Used a coupon found online--didn't need to print it out; cashier just scanned barcode on my phone. Store was clean and well kept. Overall great shopping experience here. read more

Came in to buy a hiking backpack, the selection was great and the prices were awesome. The guy who helped me was really great too, also honored a 20% off coupon. Will def be coming back read more
