    I'd been searching online all over the place for size XL sock liners, and finally found them at REI. I placed my order through the REI app with online pickup, and Chris and Sherrie had everything ready when I walked in. Thank you REI VH; I'll be back later this month for some more stuff. With gratitude, Scott

    Great for anyone who loves the outdoors and a pretty wide range of sports. The products here are definitely on the pricey side but there are occasional sales items.

    If you like anything outdoors, then you already know that REI is tops for your gear and supplies. I didn't know that Vernon Hills had a new location in the new section of a busy intersection. This new shopping area has all of my favorite stores and I had time to spare and wanted to see what this REI had to offer. Right away, I was greeted as I entered by friendly associates who obviously cared about great customer service and not pushy obligatory fake greetings. The store is absolutely beautiful! I love hiking, camping, and pretty much anything outdoors and everything you need is here and well displayed. I really never knew just how cool some of the camping gadgets have gotten over the years. I started camping when it was a cheap tent and a heavy hot sleeping bag. The technology and ease of use in some of the new items I saw got me to want to plan a camping trip soon! Everything is organized well in different sections and I was overwhelmed by the quality and selection. This is close to my house and I will be frequenting this store.

    I had two bicycles that needed tune up. No repairs needed, just a tune up so I would feel better…read moreabout my wife and my daughter riding them again after a few years of non-use. I got a call that the bikes were ready the next day. Upon picking up the bikes and bringing them home, I test-rode them around a block. I found a couple of minor issues with my daughter's bike. The brake was very soft. It felt like either the pressure on the brakes were not high enough or the brake pads were worn out. The gears when in the middle sprockets were making slight noises as if the chains were touching something. Neither were big problems, and I took the bike back a few days later. Keith adjusted the gears to solve the chain noise problem, but declared that there's nothing wrong with the brakes. More serious problem occurred with my wife's bike. When first brought back from Keith's shop, I had my wife ride it around the block to make sure she was comfortable with all the settings. Everything seemed fine at first, but after about 10 mins of riding (she was beginning to enjoy it kept going the blocks and I was following her on a scooter), she all of sudden headed into a ditch and fell over. It turns out one of the pedals fell off because it was not screwed on all the way. After walking the bike back home, it was simple enough to re-screw on the pedal, but my wife ended up with a bruise on her shoulder. When I mentioned this to Keith when I went back with daughter's bike, he said the pedals were on perfectly when it left his shop, and implied that somehow we did something to loosen it up. I may not be a bike expert, but I have screwed on and off a few pedals in my life. Keith was pretty friendly before but turned less than friendly at that point. I can't speak to the quality of service with the mowers and other small engine equipment since this is my first interaction with them, but it feels like the bicycle side of the business is an add on service and that they are not really experts with the bicycles. I went to Keith's Bike and Mower because they quoted me lower rate than other bike shops around my area. At this point, I feel that was a mistake.

    We've been bringing our bikes to Keith's bike and mower for many years and have always got…read moreexcellent service. Keith is very personable and friendly. I like that I can call the owner on the phone if I have a question. I trust him and won't bring my bikes to anyone else when they need repairs. Because I am also a business owner, Keith asked my advice about a recent bad review by Dan S. and after talking with him I feel I should debunk it. Keith's description of the situation couldn't be more different than Dan S. posted on Yelp. Keith said Dan S. came in and had two bike repaired and he repaired them to his usual high standard. Dan S. called a few days later saying he heard a noise on one of the bikes. Keith said to bring it back in to be adjusted for free. The problem was an adjustment and was fixed in five minutes. Then on the way out the door Dan S. stated out of the blue that his wife fell off the other bike because a pedal fell off and started saying Keith was negligent and complaining that he wanted his money back. Keith told me he was very respectful to Dan S. but could not be held responsible for what happened with the bike days after the repairs were done and asked why Dan S. didnt bring in the bike since it was a serious accusation. Dan S. had no answer for him and left angry. Sounds like a shakedown to me having gone through it myself. Guy wanted something for nothing and Keith didn't give in. Keep up the good work Keith we're rooting for you against all the trolls on Yelp!
