I can always rely on Kohl's for decent clothes for work or play at an affordable price. This particular location is about the same as other Kohl's stores. Although in the men's department sizes appeared to be picked over, the women's clothing department was plentiful. I purchased a t-shirt dress with a neutral chevron print, a dressy mint green blouse reminiscent of Betty Draper, and a casual top with a royal blue and cream paisley/Bohemian print...and I spent less than $50! Compared to the rest of the bustling city, I had the quietest shopping experience here. The hustle and bustle exists only outside the walls of this store, but not inside. I usually don't shop chain department stores while I'm discovering the crevices of Chicago, but I had some time to kill and would absolutely stop in here again. read more

I don't shop at Kohl's very often, but sometimes I just can't resist a good white sale. I like this Kohl's. There is a lot of parking and two floors of affordable clothing, accessories, and housewares. This one time...I couldn't figure out what to get my step-dad for Christmas. What does one buy for a farmer/truck driver who spends most of his time in jeans, dirty t-shirts, and velcro shoes?? I decided that I would buy him a sweater. Even though his style is more trailer park casual, sometimes he likes to dress up and look nice...like when my mom drags him to the community theater. My plan was to walk into Kohl's and buy the ugliest sweater that I could find. I love my family very much, but our tastes in clothes (and everything else, really) are so very different. I found this Bill Cosby reject sweater in the most horrible colors...sort of a fall palate...kind of poo colored shades. I cringed a little when I gave it to him, but he held it up and everyone the room...my aunts, my uncles, my sister-in-law, even the kids...they all gasped! I wondered if it was a good gasp or a bad gasp. Then someone said "Oh, that's BEAAAAAUUUUUTIFUL!!!!!!" My mom gave me the you-shouldn't-have-spent-so-much-on-such-a-nice-sweater look while everyone oooooh'ed and aaaahhhh'ed. My step-dad actually liked it! I was golden. Thanks Kohl's!!!! read more

Waiting in line at Kohls at 1am is a social experiment I reluctantly participated in. After waiting in line for 45 min, the girl at the furthest west register couldn't scan any items with her scanner. She said she would have to manually enter everthing. With a cranky 3 year old, I asked her to please transition me to another register. She shooed me " just go ahead". I again asked her to transition me so that it didn't appear like i was cutting in line. She smirked and said "you can just go ahead". I asked for a manager because she was falling short of providing any customer service. MANAGER SARAH ARRIVES. When I explain (see above), MANAGER SARAH IS DEFENSIVE, CONDESCENDING, AND ANIMATED stating " Oh we'll get YOU over to another register" When I asked MANAGER SARAH why wasn't this done initially, she acted shocked, bugging her eyes at me, and began to reprimand me saying "FIRST OF ALL..." AT NO POINT DID MANAGER SARAH APOLOGIZE. EVERYONE MAKES MISTAKES BUT THE FACT THAT MANAGER SARAH CANNOT APOLOGIZE IS EGREGIOUS. While I spent 2 hours finding presents and standing in line, I decided to not buy anything. My 3 year old daughter was being so good through the long wait in line and the incompetence of the girl at check out and MANAGER SARAH. I decided to leave my cart and the 100's I was going to spend. As a mother, I will not let my daughter see me be so rudely disrespected and then hand over money. I don't pay to be mistreated. You don't deserve anyone's money you disrespect. HAPPY HOLIDAYS KOHLS read more

I found so many amazing deals at this Kohl's, it was unbelievable! It is also nice because this location is in the middle of the city so you can pretty much get here easily from all sides. It is also well kept and maintained, not over crowded and in disarray like some other city department stores. I will be coming back!! read more

My shopping experience at Kohl's was great. Their store is not overcrowded and they manage to keep the store very neat. They always have awesome sales going on. Their bedding selection is great as well as other house hold products.... BTW this is a great spot to do your holiday shopping for random people! read more

The older ladies in my family are really into Kohl's thus I tend to get Kohl's gift certificates for presents. Not to be ungrateful but I am at a loss as to what they see in this place. The clothes are weird and fugly. It's like lame knock-offs of Target clothes, stuff that's almost in fashion but not quite. It's like the Christian rock of discount department stores. The same goes for the housewares. Everything is in icky colors and patterns. And what's up with the makeup section? Why on earth would I buy make-up at near Sephora prices from a store with really ugly clothes? However, they do have a nice selection of As-Seen-on-TV household appliances and I got an awesome vegetable cutter thingy there, so two stars for that. read more

I feel a little guilty for criticizing a business from which I bought nothing, but GOD I TRIED, for a solid hour, to find something that I wanted to wear. A close call came when I stumbled on the puffy winter coats under Kohl's only halfway decent label, Apartment 9. But, I don't usually wear black, and the only other "color" was a depressing gray/green/beige that should never have been committed to a textile. That's a constant with Kohl's offerings: lackluster tailoring and color. I can imagine a meeting at some apparel manufacturer in Guangdong where the buyer says "can you make the sweaters a little baggier and more dirt-colored?" Kohl's, you took an hour of my life. An hour I will never get back...to shop at Target. read more

Regardless of what any other review says on here, this Kohl's store is one of the most organized and cleanest Kohl's stores you will ever visit. I've worked at Kohl's as a manager. I've been to countless Kohl's stores, and I will personally attest to the high standards of this store. Kudos to the management team and team members of this store. If one of you ever reads this, GREAT job! I don't know how you do it, as I quit my job because it was just too dang hard to rise to the ridiculously high expectations Kohl's sets forth, but no matter what anyone (coporate, your DM, a disgruntled customer) tells you, you are doing a great job. Keep it up! read more

I love me some Lauren Conrad, Vera Wang, and Daisy Fuentes! So I actually really like Kohl's. I love that there is a parking lot so you dont have to worry about that. I honestly do most of my shopping online because there is more of a selection, but occasionally go to the store. What is there not to like about almost everything in the store on sale? They really have a lot of the current trends for a real reasonable price. The quality of most of the things in the store is average. Its not amazing, but its not junk either. I absolutely love the "hassle-free" returns! I bought the cutest pair of flats and a piece of the detailing came off after wearing them for about 1 hour...BOO. Now most places would never take the shoes back because I wore them...GASP! But, Kohl's gladly replaced them! How awesome is that. read more

In my opinion, this particular Kohl's is a fine example of how a dept. store chain can come into a city this large and stay clean and well stocked. Often my partner and I prefer to go to a suburban store because the shelves aren't picked clean as if we were living in a resettlement camp, for god's sakes. When I go to other stores such as the Target on Elston, I feel like I need to make sure my shots are up to date because I am entering a g.d. Third World country. In fact, you have to have a game plan for when you think the shelves will be stocked and the parking lot available. I have friends who actually get up at the crack ass of dawn on a Saturday to get to Target by 8 a.m. when they open the doors. NO effing way am I going to resort to that. Back to Kohl's. Every time I go, there is plenty of merchandise; the dressing rooms are clean; the bathrooms are clean; there is plenty of parking. True - they need more cashiers and they need more shopping carts, but I am highly impressed with their ability to stay stocked and clean. Can you teach the other chains how to do this, please? I must admit - I don't buy work clothes there. The quality is not there for me. But hell, I don't know why I even said that as I went to stupid Macy's last week and tried on wool dress slacks that were $129 and were not even LINED! WTF? But damn - every time they have a sale (which is, what? Every week?) and I have a 20-30% off coupon in my grubby little hands, I feel like I have stolen from them. (Most recent purchase: top of the line, 19 inches off the ground, queen size self inflating in 60 second air mattress normally $300............I got it for $112 - free shipping and I got it in THREE days!) Okay - in my excitement I forgot I ordered this online, but still! SUCH A DEAL! read more

You can buy t-shirts for 5 bucks, and underwear for more. There is almost too much clothing. And it is mostly tacky but sometimes you can find cute skirts. An odd mannequin of a girl in a wheelchair. Despite their inclusive spirit, the staff seem disgruntled. I saw a manager berating an employee right in front of me. Guess she wasn't Kohl's material. You get a candy bar if they don't give you a receipt. A jumbo candy bar. They have kitchen appliances and cheesy dishware. They're from Wisconsin. There is parking. It is different than the Target. read more

Kohl's depresses me. That said, we found nice towels here, and I suppose they were a good price, although I personally don't see the point in spending $36 on a "bath sheet" as opposed to a bath towel. But hey, the boy was happy, so I'm happy. The store still depresses me, though. read more

I always shop herr because they have great insentives for tgeir clients. Clearance rack is great here lots of work clothes. This location is a little run down. Yes alot fo the good stuff is gone just like with any of the citys other clothing stores marshals tjs ect... I wanna talk about an exceptional experience that I had. I bought a sweater for an last min Xmas day gift low and behold i didnt notice it was dmaged so I ended up not gifting it. Somewhere along the hustle and bustle of the holiday season I had misplaced it. Uh ooh and surprise the 50 $ sweater was now on sale 32$. I was beyond P.O. all I had found was a 10$ kohl's cash that I had gotten. At the time of purchase . Yadira was amazing she took care of me so well.she was able to look up my purchase some how. All the other customer service mangers took note at this lady who would go to a length to help a customer. She also was able to use my khols cash. I am more then happy with my experience here. Yairdira you rock girl. read more

I get almost all of my clothes from Kohl's and this location is like the only location in Chicago that I think exists. If I'm wrong, then it's still the only location I want to go to. Out of all the Kohl's I've been to, they seriously have the best selection of clothing. When they are doing their mark-down clearance extravaganzas, this place is awesome. If you've never been, go. read more

Still no fitting rooms open, hastening the end of brick and mortar stores. May as well shop online. Also few size 32 bras. For a store with such a good junior section, this is frustrating and annoying. read more

Came in to the store to exchange some pants for my 5 year old daughter and was amaze on how clean and organize it was, I have always shop at the kohls at the Lincolnwood mall and from now on i am changing from store. It was so easy to find everything I needed, When in and out and found more pants then I did at the Lincolnwood mall location. read more

This locations appears to have better organizations and the staff seems to be responsive to your needs. There are two (2) stairs and the women and juniors are on the first floor. Those departments are where I usually spend the most time browsing through the racks. Unlike TJ Maxx, Marshall's and Ross Dress for Less, the staff is really quick to clean and re-organize the racks when necessary. Therefore, you don't need to seek your bargains on the floors! This also reduces the chances that garments are getting torn or damaged. The cashier who assisted me told me about the survey and asked me if I wanna do it right away. I wasn't in a hurry so I immediately agreed. It was funny that because i overheard the shift manager wrapped in with his associates about the importance of surveys. I realized this can be important to the store and business itself so I don't mind filling it out. It did mine on my I-pad mini because there's free guest wifi available and was actually working!! kohl's can be a great place to shop if you utilize the resources they have well (ex. Kohl's charge, coupons, and kohl's cash). I purchased lots of work outfits there, but you need to patiently browse through all sections, which requires TIME. Don't go there if you're under time crunch because it will make your shopping difficult! I normally go out of Chicago city limit to shop at other kohl's locations for the lower sales tax. I, however, will start coming to the this location. If you travel by public transportation, there's no stop on Elston. The best bet is to take the El to Paulina Brown line and take bus 9 that drops off on Ashland/Elston. My route today was to take CTA bus 50 southbound and gets off at damen/Webster. However, I don't recommend the latter route at night or after sundown because you have to walk underneath the Kennedy Expressway, which may be too shady to walk and you can encounter the homeless, unfortunately. read more

Kohl's - Three (3) blouses and one (1) blazer for $63.97 after tax...gotta love kohl's coupon...I also earned $10 kohl's cash! - Department Stores Near Me - CHICAGO, Illinois

Excuse me? Are there any employees who actually work on the second floor of this store? My wife and I were looking for picture frames and pillows for a wedding registry. In 30 minutes we did not see one employee. Note to anyone: Never register at Kohl's ; their system is a disaster. The only way to print is from Customer Service. And their junk goes out of stock very quickly. read more

Online orders from Kohl's are a nightmare, at least if the item is heavy and bulky. I ordered a shoe storage unit and then realized it was too big. I used Kohl's online chat to cancel the order and the agent told me it was cancelled -- I have the chat transcript. But Kohl's delivered it anyway and refused to do anything to help me deal with it. I managed to get it to the store and a superstar Kohl's employee tried to help me, but I still don't have a refund. There is some problem with refunding the order despite the fact that I had never opened the item, was within the 180 day return window, and provided my receipt. The only reason I'm giving this two stars instead of one is the great employee who really tried to resolve this. This was my first experience with Kohl;s online and it is my last experience with Kohl's ever. read more

This is a great Kohl's!! I went here this weekend and they have incredible sales going on at this time! Its a great department store to get things for everyone in your family at great prices. Their selection is ever expanding and they've got lots of trendy styles. This location has a TON of parking too! read more

I'm usually not a fan of Kohls but when I was searching for some cheap basics. I basically found what I wanted quickly. Unlike some of their other locations, this one has a lot of sizes available. The store was clean and stuff was easy to find. They did seem to have a lot of stuff on sale but I really didn't take the time to see what was on sale. For those of you who are looking for cheap basics, check them out. But I wouldn't recommend for looking for cute, trendy items. Also, minus one star for only having one cashier area per floor. read more

Kohls is a place you need to go when you have a coupon and on Bonus Buy days to maximize your savings. They have really nice stuff for kids. Home items are nice for basics. Unfortunately the plus section is horrible. I rarely ever find anything here and they carry a very few wide with shoes. read more

Stopped shopping at Kohl's because the prices have gone up and too many of the things I want to buy are excluded from their coupons. Returns have also become a headache. Whatever Kohls. It's been real. read more

It's your typical department store, I am giving them 5 stars because they have to deal with a vast amount of Karens coming in here and complaining about ridiculous things. read more

Kohl's has quickly become one of my favorite stores. They have clothes by Stamp, Nine & Company and Daisy Fuentes...which I love. Cool selection of jewelry and handbags. As far as shoes I've only found a pair of workout shoes here but I do most of my shoe shopping on zappos.com anyhow but regardless I can spend some mean cash at Kohl's. read more

I am generally pleased with this store, both as a chain and this particular store. Clothes and other items are mostly neatly organized and well-stocked. They carry the first pair of jeans that fit me very well (Levis 529s FTW) and I also got a STEAL of a deal on an Asian cleaver-type knife that had been $140...for less than $40. This is also a good place to pick up staples like t-shirts - their Apt. 9 line is especially good - and some work clothes. Issues: I've bought sheets here before and oddly, both sets of the on-sale Martex sheets will notnotnot stay on my bed. I think they shrunk something fierce. That is my only glaring disappointment with Kohl's, which could easily be more of an issue for Martex instead. Another beef I have is that it looks like Food Network exploded upstairs in the kitchen area. Aside from a few cheap-looking house brands of serveware and a few Fiestaware selections, FN has a strangle hold on this place. If you want a Bobby Flay salad bowl for $40, go ahead, but I will steer clear. I like their emails and I like being made aware of sales, but like clockwork, I get a Kohl's email probably 4 days out of the week, every morning. That's too much for my taste, but there doesn't appear to be an option to scale it down without totally opting out. *shrug* Whatever. Regardless, I generally like the store and will likely shop here often. read more

I only have one reason to dislike Kohl's. It all comes down to pants. Back in the day while i college, I used to work at Kohl's. Now I have no interest in buying much of the items they sell, but it was a job. However, every single pair of pants they have ever sold have the same exact inseam. Why? Why kohl's do you think women are all the same height? It's like you want to punish me or something for being *different* then all the rest. Again, it just really erks me that the entire store is filled with pants that are for women with a 32 inseam. Come on, really guys? To me, that means Kohl's purposely chooses to miss an entire demographic because they don't want money. I hate you Kohl's! read more

This locations is great, Kohl's is Kohl's in my opinion. They are all pretty much the same whatever I go. But this location is closer to our house and we like that is clean and organized. read more

I love this Kohl. Its always clean and I can always find something and the associates are always helpful and knowledgeable of their product and store. Plus the associates will actually come up to you and say hi! You just don't get that everyday. read more

What should have been a 4 star review got bumped down one star for incorrect advertisements throughout the store. They put up the wrong sale signs and it was too much of a hassle to try and adjust the price as they can only do in the Customer Service area. Decent selection of items. Great home goods department where you can usually find most items on sale. If it's not on sale when you go, wait it out a week and more than likely it'll be on sale then. I'm not a big fan of their clothing, nor shoes, as it's not really my style. Have to agree with what others said about parking. Definitely a crazy maze, but hey at least they have it. It can be difficult to find an employee when you have a question at times, but generally when you do find one, they are pleasant. read more

Alright it is time to confess, I subsidize my trips to GQ type stores by saving some cash shopping at Kohls. They seem to always have sales and even though I don't like much of their fashion selections, I find ample accessories items that save me some cash. They also have good deals on items for the home. Now as for this location, I do like the set up and they always seem to keep it in order. However, I must say that I've been subjected to long lines due to cashiers that are either slow or absent from the registers. read more

This shopping experience is pretty subpar for me. I've been to other Kohl's and fared a lot better than I did when I went in... My trip was mostly to find some professional clothing but I didn't really find it. The clothes they had were either too young (teens) for me or too old (like 30s...). Even though I tried to shop for petite, the sizes were just too OFF for me. It didn't really work out well... read more

As the stars say, A-OK. This is my local Kohl's store so I shop in here on regular occasion. It's generally pretty well kept & I've always had an easy time finding what I want. I'll continue to shop here for some time! That said, the brand in general is great. You kinda have to go all in (Credit card, rewards card, coupons, etc) to get the best deals but all in all I think it's worth it. read more

Kohl's is a little stupid because at any given moment 90% of the inventory is on sale. This one's no different. It took me a long time to find the two pieces of an off-the-rack suit I bought because the trouser rack had wayyy too many pairs in it all squeezed together so tight it could probably make a diamond outta coal. And the sizes were all jumbled and out of order. I came in very early on a Sunday morning so I know it wasn't other customers that messed it up that day. They should have fixed that rack before opening the store. Despite my gripes with the place, I generally am fine with their mediocre clothes... it's the price range I'm happy with. It's still way above Wal-mart. Nice parking lot though. read more

I've been to this Kohl's a couple times, and it's always been pretty mellow (even on Sunday). Everything was well organized and there was no wait for cashiers. Kohl's in general is a great store that operates in a niche similar to Sears but more clothing heavy. I tend to find fairly well made clothes (considering the price) cheaper than anywhere else (for the quality level). Sometimes you can get deals on home goods as well. What can I say, I grew up in Milwaukee, so shopping here and at Menard's keeps me buying local (sorta), yet I can benefit from a large corporation's economy of scale to save money. Let's call shopping at Kohl's morally neutral at worst (as long as you avoid buying Chinese and contributing to the trade deficit). read more

Took off some stars just for today's shopping experience !!!! Frustrated and offended with the management of this store !!! Love that I can find everything here , I used to spend hours at this location ,not anymore i still love it . simply Vera Wang , LC , Daisy Fuentes and Elle are among the brands that I pick out the most at kohl's the only thing I have not purchased here are any of the cosmetics they sell is in my to do list maybe be next time I visit read more

Ok so this kohls is heads about better than all the rest. Great staff and decent sales. read more

This is easily the cleanest and most organized Kohl's I've ever been to. It was easy to find what I was looking for and actually had my sizes in stock. read more

Good luck finding a size you want unless you eat fast food 3 times a day and drink a case of beer to wash down the fat. The other size ordering machine is junk. Maybe someone should try testing it. Order something from from it, you'll done in an hour. read more

Ahh Kohl's: where lower-middle class goes to shop. (Don't you chastise me, my pay stub has me pegged as "Dirt Poor.") I've never seen anything here that is remotely interesting or fashionable. I suppose if I worked as a bank teller in a small town, Kohl's would become invaluable to me. I don't work as a bank teller, my name isn't "Brenda" and frankly I would rather all my clothing have pre-worn pit stains than be made of the dreaded poly-cotton blend that seemingly EVERYTHING in Kohl's is made of.* Every year, someone on my step-mom's side of the family buys me a sweater from Kohl's and as soon as I put it on I'm transported back to junior high photo day. Cashiers here may as well be working using only the cheeks of their butts to serve you. I can't think of any way they could be any slower and unskilled. If cheap, office appropriate clothing that no one will ever compliment you on is your thing you should come to Kohl's. They have convenient parking!! *Ending an ass-ton of sentences in prepositions means you're officially a Chicagoan. Wanna go with? read more
