I love that they have matches and candles I haven't seen at other department stores. I got some great ones but they came with an £11 price tag so be prepared to spend. I wish they'd have a little more variety of pricing so I could get all the stocking stuffers here too. Then I probably wouldn't need to go to other stores!

I've always popped in here when I need to change currency or checking out new perfume and jewellery ! Once I'm inside it's a different matter as I get pulled towards the handbags and shoes and clothing,which is easily done as you have to walk through all these lovely items just to get to the top floor to change currency! And if you get a chance pop into the restaurant for a pot of tea and freshly homemade cakes!

I have a confession. I'm not really into retail therapy. In fact, too much retail therapy will…read moreprobably lead to me needing therapy! So, department stores are a good hunting ground for me around times like Christmas when I need to find and buy lots of presents. This Debenhams store is the anchor store for Centre Court Shopping Centre in Wimbledon. It isn't the biggest department but has the full variety of different departments. I had a successful shopping trip here today. The top floor had a lot of homeware and kitchen gadgets - fortunately, a lot of my friends are foodies and love to cook and entertain. The middle level is mainly ladies clothing but the ground floor yielded more success with menswear, fragrances & cosmetics and also a gift section with some fun things to give. It is better to give than receive and Debenhams made that easier for me to achieve today

The service in this store in every single department is consistently terrible. No one is ever at…read morethe click and collect till, one person seems to man the whole of beauty, the fitting rooms are supervised by people who have bitchy conversations about other staff members outside the doors. The presence of a crappy sports direct franchise on the top floor rounds it off. At least it is consistent in its terribleness, and it gets two stars because its blue cross sales are worth braving.

It's a real boon to the area: it's a very clean and spacious variant of this fast growing hardware and household chain, with long opening hours. Real convenience and with keenly competitive prices. I use it for a whole variety of purchases: household goods like clothes washing liquid and bleach; gardening supplies in summer; pharmacy essentials like sun screen, allergy relief medicine and my reading glasses; light bulbs; and kitchen utensils. I much prefer it to the more sprawling store in Kingston.

TK Maxx is an unexpected saviour for those who struggle to find clothes to fit them and a fantastic…read moreconcept for everyone else. The idea is simple: TK Maxx buys clothes at the end of their line for peanuts and sells them for just above peanuts to the public. Their selling point is brands for a lot less, which is true and attractive enough in itself. For me however, as a gentleman of some height who struggles to find trousers in other stores and then generally gets ripped-off when he does, TK Maxx is a God-send. Not only do they buy loads of US brands which do my size, but they also very conveniently organise all their clothes by size, meaning I can simply stroll up to the rack in question and then sort through all the clothes that are likely to fit me in one fell swoop. No trekking to each store for the same outcome. AND it's super-cheap, typically £30 for trousers, which for a tall guy, is hard to find. So TK Maxx, I salute you. May you long find business in these here shores.

I remember when I was at school and Kingston had undergone its transformation and the store first…read moreopened. There was a time the store would have had a 5 star rating. Now I give it a three star rating as its still better than many other places but not what it used to be due to inconsistencies. I always buy electricals from here as large domestic appliances come with an automatic two year guarantee and televisions with a five year guarantee. Due to challenging circumstances in the space of over six weeks have had to purchase a Bosch washing machine, Sony TV and Bosch dishwasher. The washing machine salesman was excellent, managed to match the Bentalls offer (the other large department store in Kingston) and all was done. The TV was a hassle because I spoke to three people and none had the authorization to take payment over the phone so I had to go into the store, wait for an available salesperson just to make payment as I knew what I wanted and then wait for ages to collect the TV. Previously could phone up, place the order and then just go to collect it as it would be ready. Most recently ordered a dishwasher, the salesman was happy to match the Bentalls offer but then he couldn't process this through the till and so he asked an older grumpy looking colleague who then asked the department manager who said no. I was disappointed because the salesman had agreed and it was only because he seemed inexperienced that he didn't know how to process the discount through the till so the transaction cost me an extra 45 pounds unnecessarily. Its only because I like the idea of the profits being shared amongst the workers of the John Lewis Partnership that I placed the order otherwise would have gone back to Bentalls. When I queried that a few weeks earlier the salesman had matched their offer he just said "you were lucky", I thought no you agreed to it too its just didn't know how to process it through the till. The delivery service is first class with all delivery drivers cheerful, polite and helpful.

It shares the building with Sainsburys which is next door so the car park is very large and I've never had any problem parking there. As the festive season is upon us there is currently a big section on the 1st floor with 3 for 2 gifts as well as Christmas trees and lights. The trees as on display too in case you are unsure what it would look like when out of the box. I recently made a visit here due to their 'spectacular 20% off day' and made a mistake when purchasing some items. I had to visit the customer service section and I was impressed as to how friendly and helpful they were. I also spoke to a few staff on the shop floor as well who I also found to be very friendly and helpful. Therefore in my experience, the customer service here is fantastic!!

There's a Topshop, Miss Selfridge, cafe and Game in here amongst other clothing / retail stores... This may all sound great but I've never, ever been that excited about this Debenhams at all. It's really unfortunate. Although there are lots of clothes, you are just better off going to central London as it's a case of lots of choice but really nothing amazing to choose from really. The best thing about this place though is the make-up counters! You can get everything here from Benefit to Chanel. I'd probably stick to these kinds of purchases if you decide to visit Debenhams in Clapham Junction. This place isn't the best. More of good Sunday afternoon browse rather than a full-on shop...
