The store is packed full and with a buggy it is quite difficult to get from A to B. The racks are crammed with clothes and it takes some time to pick your way through to find what you want. If you have the time to spare and are prepared to search, then undoubtedly there are some brilliant bargains to be grabbed. There are plenty of tills and there is little waiting time to pay, even when it is busy at the weekend.

They are selling the 'Comic Relief' t-shirts I know it is for charity, but £14.99 for it & it does not seem to be the best material, one/two washes & it would look quite scruffy I think. Also I know Designers & Celebs put there mark on them to. This time not a lot took interest, but I find you find loads of things you want to buy or nothing really. Always worth a look though

When we went it was a bit of a mad scramble as people were lunging for everything they liked, although we did go on a very busy weekend when they had a sale. Have visited recently and the store is well presented with the marked down prices on more of the clothes. Staff are cheery and helpful e.g. They didn't have a t-shirt in my size so they found one out the back for me very quickly. Nice location in the actual Gunwharf Quays development with lots of other great shops nearby.

Before QS moved to it's new postion on the high street it was always a pleasure to shop in. However…read morethe new internal design is quite dingy and dated, and doesn't give off a pleasent atmosphere. There is also now only a tiny changing room as opposed to the nicer ones it had before! The clothes for men are very good, and good value. However the clothes for women can sometimes be quite hit and miss in terms of style, but you can normally find good accessories like hats and scarfs. They don't seem to cater for a wide market in terms of clothing. At the back of the store there are a few homewares etc, but nothing remarkable. The staff are friendly and efficient, but there is normally only a couple on the tills and none wandering around the store helping you.

The guy who runs it obviously does so out of love as he pretty much handpicks the stock and only ever buys top quality product. They sell a wide range of clothing but for me it is their shirts which sets this place apart. They don't come cheap but it's worth every penny when you buy something that looks cooler than Jimi Hendrixes barnet and has quality finishing that's reminiscent of Alan Shearer at his peak.

The stock is old but things like classic white shirts are fine and though you have to hunt through all the strange sizes you can find good deals. There is a reasonable range of stock although it does seem to vary as to the time of year you go in. Sometimes it's brimming with stock and other times, i can;t find much so this store does need some patience. But if you can;t afford normal prices, try here because the reductions are good.

Having said that Primark is great, and other stores i've been in have been very good and much more organised!

I love love love primark!…read more This a fairly big store and has everything you need! The clothes are cheap as is the underwear and accessories. People often comment that the clothes are not good quality but almost everything i have bought has washed up well and i have worn time and time again. However if you do get the odd item that doesnt wash or wear well it is not a major loss because of the cheapness. I often buy my summer holiday wardrobe at Primark with t-shirts costing between £1.50 and £3 and shorts for about £5. Flip flops and bikinis are also amazing value. I am not overly keen on the ladies underwear but my partner wears the boxer shorts and the black socks for work. The only downside to this shop is the queue's and the fact that it sometimes resembles a jumble sale! The queue's are massive and sometimes snake around the clothes! I would recommed going 1st thing in the morning when it opens and midweek, never a weekend! The staff are always nice and will always go out to the stock room to look for stuff for you.

This is probably tied with Topshop and Jane Norman for the best place to buy clothes. The designs…read morehere are just as unique and sometimes the shapes are offbeat in a haute couture kind of way, but what sets it apart from the other two is the extremely low cost along with the high quality. Sadly, because of this a lot of the popular stuff sells out quick, and because this is a 100% allocation branch they rarely get stock back in once they sell out, as I used to work there and they have a huge stock room to house their one batch of a particular top/dress/jacket etc. The staff keep to themselves and don't bother you, which is nice, but they're too busy tidying up the constant piles of clothes strewn across the store. This is because the shop tends to cram out as much as they possibly can, which also makes for difficult browsing if you've already got a handful of stuff. Be wary of going on busy days, as the fitting rooms will be a distant possibility, and it's best to head for the children's area as the tills there don't tend to get too busy. Lastly, a good thing about the company is that they don't use sweatshop labour; if they find a young child working in a factory they will take them out and pay for their schooling. This is a nice thing to know in light of the low cost of the clothes, as many will think it's from exploitative labour. I'd recommend shopping here in general, but be prepared to hunt for some good bargains, especially during the sales.

I like next, some of their clothing is really good quality, plenty of items in stock this summer just gone, and no matter which store you go to in any city, it's always consistent really, offering the same throughout. This store is nice and large and offers all womens and mens range as well as little ones. Only thing i dont like, is the annoying catalogue person on the door asking you to join up and pay for a catalogue each time i go it, bin it next, and move on to the NEXT one!

I like the way it is laid out with the children's department on the ground floor with the womans wear.

The staff always seem to be working very hard to keep the cutomers happy and they are always very friendly and helpful.
