When Heidner Properties acquired the Arboretum of South Barrington in 2022, we have witnessed an uptick in the abundance of new events, decor, beautiful new restaurants, retail shops & many more special events for day and evening entertainment. It's such a beautiful mall to walk around in & we cannot wait to see the ongoing innovations that continue to grow and become more successful each year. It's such a lovely outdoor entertainment mall and it's easily accessible from every direction. We love it here Stacy & the events department are also just wonderful to work with.

I visited to look at their shoe department for a holiday gift. Don helped me and I could not have nicer things to say about him! He got me a variety of bean boot styles, heights, and sizes to try on to truly see which I liked best. After my research was complete, he found us back in the store to have me try one more boot that had my preferred size, width, height, and was on major sale! He never applied pressure for me to buy and actually recommended I put it on a hold if I wanted to think about it. He made sure I was well informed of my options and went above and beyond for me. I ended up coming back Sunday and bought the boots! LL Bean has some great products where I've bought blankets, flannels, sweaters, and slippers previously but Don's service was some of the best I've experienced in a while.

Today she realized that she was missing one of her earrings, so we looked all over the house, but couldn't find it. After thinking about it, she thought that she might have lost it when she tried on the sweater in the fitting room, so she decided to go back to the store to find out if anyone had found it. After looking in the dressing room, she was offered assistance by an employee named Cathy,. After explaining her problem, Cathy told her that someone had found her earring late yesterday afternoon, and that it had been secured for her. We are very grateful for the help from Cathy and whoever else had found her earring! Thank you SO MUCH! John & Jenny

I always stop here before a trip, especially a girls trip away. Soma wear is typically higher priced than what you might find in a TJ Maxx or Ross Store, but I return to Soma for the lasting quality and reliable fashion I have come to know here. There is also a Soma store at Woodfield Mall, but my favorite location is here at The Arboretum of South Barrington. The sales staff here are always helpful and friendly without being over-bearing or persistent. Be sure to check out the sales racks in back and join their mailing list to watch for rewards points and special coupons for even greater value. On my last visit, I spent around $60, but I had $35 in coupons. I also appreciate the good quality paper shopping bags Soma uses and often reuse, recycled or use them as gift bags.

I thought it was terrible. I have purchased bras before from Soma and have loved their service…read more There was a sale online so purchased 5 bras. I could not remember my size, so I ordered what I thought would fit. Every bra fit incorrectly. Not a big deal, I went to the store to exchange them. There was a woman being trained. She clearly was not ready to be on her own but they left her to take care of me for most of my experience. 1st she tried to tell me that I didn't purchase one of my bras there. (She didn't bother asking the associate that was training her, she just assumed because they didn't sell that particular bra in their store that it wasn't from Soma)The associate had to correct her. Instead of asking, because she had no clue, she proceeded to tell me that I could not take that particular bra back through the store, but that I needed ship it back and contact the company the way that way had purchased it. Again, the associate had to correct her. (The associate was in the back and I had to ask her to go and verify that I could not return it in the store) As I was trying on the bras they did have in stock, she took forever to find them. I love Soma bras but every single bra she gave me from one of their lines was misshapen, it looked like it was crushed. She not only made up answers instead of asking when she did not know, she had a slight attitude like I was inconveniencing her. Needless to say I returned 3 out of the 5 bras. I'm not going to pay good money for misshapen bras and bad service. I have not been back since and am still debating if I even want to go back and give it another try.

This is a well organized, clean and spacious Target. I like the Starbuck's at this site and the…read morecashiers are always friendly and courteous. If I don't have a lot I use self checkout lanes but the lines move pretty fast if you have a full cart. I've also made purchases for work here using our non-profit number for tax exemption status and they move pretty quickly on these purchases as well as gift cards. I really like the pet aisles here and the seasonal aisle for holiday needs. On my last visit I loaded up on baking needs to start making my favorite holiday cookies and this Target had everything on my list. Another thing I appreciate are the sales on clothing especially after summer when you can find some cute women's clothing at unbelievably low prices. I also find it impressive that several times I've had staff members greet me warmly or ask if they can help me find something. Great customer service here. Bonus points for stocking my favorites, like Starbuck's Zero Coffee Creamer and Nutrl Assorted flavored cocktails!

This Burlington location has been around for years, so I'm honestly surprised I'm the first to…read morereview it -- but here we go. It's is a very large discount retail store with inventory across many categories, from clothing and accessories to home goods and personal care. It's comparable to a Ross or TJ Maxx. I enjoy shopping at stores like this because you can usually find solid bargains if you're willing to look. They carry a wide range of fashion styles at reasonable prices. Most items feel fairly unique -- you're not typically seeing racks of the exact same piece. At most, there might be a couple duplicates per size. So how does it compare to Ross or TJ Maxx? For clothing, I like Ross & Burlington's prices and selection. Burlington carry a good mix of styles and sizes. However, for skincare, personal care items, and casual jewelry, I prefer TJ Maxx. And for home décor, HomeGoods is still my go-to because they offer the widest variety. One thing Burlington does especially well during the holidays is gift wrap -- they offer extensive selection of wrapping paper for $8 -10 and these some of the largest rolls you'll find for that price! Now for the part that makes me cautious. About a year ago, I returned an item on behalf of my mother that was past the 30-day return window. The associate processed the return without clearly explaining the outcome beforehand. When I looked at the receipt, I saw that we were credited less than half of what was originally paid. I asked why, and she explained that once an item is returned past 30 days, the store credit / refund amount is at the store's discretion and may be significantly reduced. I understand that businesses have policies. However, I looked carefully at the signage, the receipt, and the posted return information at the register, and nowhere did it clearly state that late returns could result in a drastically reduced credit at their discretion. I even spoke with a manager, who confirmed this was corporate policy. That's fine -- but it should be clearly communicated and disclosed BEFORE completing the transaction. Had I known we would receive less than half back, I likely would have kept the item for my mother instead. We didn't need such a lowly refund. But once the return was processed, it couldn't be undone. I had return-remorse and would have preferred to not essentially "pay" the store more than half of what we originally paid to TAKE BACK inventory. I would have just kept the item instead if I was offered a choice and was told ahead that I'm getting only $3 back because for that price, I'd just keep the item and find a use for it. That experience didn't feel transparent, and it left a bad impression. Since then, I've recalibrated my expectations. I still shop here occasionally, but I'm very mindful of return timelines. I have noticed that they now display clearer signage near the checkout explaining that late returns may receive reduced credit/refund, so that's definitely an improvement in communication. Overall, this is still a solid place to hunt for bargains, especially for clothing and seasonal items. Just be very aware of the return policy and timelines so there are no surprises. A couple additional tips: There is a fitting room area toward the back of the store, but it's often closed. There's a sign directing you to the fitting rooms near the front entrance, somewhat hidden behind the purse section (see photos). It's a small setup with two adjacent rooms, and you're limited to six items at a time. Depending on the day, there may be a wait. On my most recent visit, I chose not to wait and brought items home to try on instead. Bonus tip: If you register your phone number in their system, you get an additional 15 days for returns (a total of 45 days). They can also process returns using your phone number without a physical receipt. There isn't a points rewards system, but those are the main perks.
