I bought a custom engagement ring from Michael and he guided me through everything seamlessly. He provided helpful information regarding what metal for the band, the cut, clarity, color and even carat size of the diamond. The difference between Michael and other jewelry stores is he cares about each customers unique reasoning for coming into the store. You can feel that each time you speak with him. I returned a second time to have an earring made into a ring that had sentimental value. After he showed us our options and we received the ring, we were blown away! It was more than what my fiancé and I could have dreamed of. If you want a team with expert knowledge around all things jewelry, great prices and welcoming staff, then Michael Szweds Jewlers is your place!!

I reached out to a good friend of mine to ask him who he used as a jeweler for his wife's ring…read more I've seen her ring before and it was magnificent. He raved about Michael and I took the 40 or so minute drive from Newington to begin the process. Michael was absolutely amazing during the entire shopping and purchasing of the ring. His patience showed and he wanted to make sure the diamond I chose was exactly what I wanted and within my budget. Once I moved on to the setting I chose a spectacular Simon G setting. I told him that rose gold was a must, but not just any rose gold. The color could not be too orange or yellow. We discussed this with the manufacturer and he assured me the risk of getting it the exact color without dipping it was worth it. Michael delivered BIG TIME. The ring is absolutely beautiful and my gf, now fiancé, is absolutely in love with it. It's the dream ring she didn't know she wanted. Thank you to Michael and his entire staff. From a avid reviewer - please choose Michael for your next engagement ring and/or fine jewelry. You will get quality jewelry with customer service to match!

It was very "typical longmeadow." There were some women in the check out like in front of me who were clearly spending a lot more money than I was, and that resulted in me waiting over 10 minutes to pay because the women behind the counter were chit chatting about their personal lives. I wasn't greeted, I wasn't told "be right with you," and even when I stepped up to the counter to pay neither woman said a word to me. I've never felt so unwelcome in a store before. The clothes are amazing, I only wished the service matched, and that those of us who might only be spending $30 felt welcome as well.

I needed shoes for lyrical, jazz, ballet, and pointe. Shoes only last at most a year, so I was here often. They have a great selection of different types of shoes so you can find the one that fits you best. They are also very knowledgeable. When I needed my first pair of pointe shoes I was so excited. Only dancers will understand.... I came here and they sat me down and looked at my feet, measured them, had me stand and get into different ballet positions. They had me try on many different styles and brands. They kept encouraging me to take my time, move around in the shoes, etc. I was there for awhile, it was a process, but I appreciated it because I came out with a great first pair of shoes. They even set me up with the right kind of padding and tape, and showed my mom and I how to sew on the elastic and ties. It also always smells good in here..just a side note.

Whenever I go in here, there is an angry woman behind the desk that never acknowledges me the entire time I'm there. When there is a younger girl working, she always says hello and asks to open a dressing room for me (no complaints about her). 99% of the things I've seen in this store are super old lady... can a plus size 30 something get some cute clothes around here??? The shoes are hideous and everything else that is from the last century is pretty high priced. I did find a pair of purple forever 21+ skinny jeans here a few months ago, but I want to say I paid $12-$15 for them and if they were on sale in the store, I could have bought them new. From time to time, I still check back to see if anything has changed in here (because it is a great concept), but so far, not my favorite place.
