Like Kellemar advises it really is the BIG YELLOW BUILDING, which is a good thing because it makes…read moreit very easy to find. They do everything from beds, to kitchen cupboards and wardroabs.

The staff are more then happy to help too

Lincoln Furniture Warehouse is advertised as The Big Yellow Building on St Peter Street and it…read morecertainly is. From the outside it looks like a big yellow warehouse and not very welcoming, but go inside and it is absolutely crammed full of furniture. This doesn't sell your average, run of the mill, furniture, but very nice pieces manufactured in oak, pine and walnut to name a few. They have everything from coffee tables, through dining suites, to bookcases, CD racks and sideboards. Go through to the other side and they also have wardrobes, bed frames, chests of drawers etc. I bought some oak pieces for my lounge and am very impressed with them. They are well made and finished and extremely heavy - nothing flimsy about them. You can choose to have either a waxed finish or lacquer coating on the furniture - depending on which pieces you buy. If you are fortunate enough to find a piece you like in their sale section, lucky you - you can pick up some wonderful things at up to 50% off their normal price. The staff are excellent, very friendly and helpful and if you don't want to take the furniture away with you, they will deliver it for you very quickly. All in all a fabulous store with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere (once inside that is - not the yellow warehouse look of outside!)

Fremlin Walk is a fairly new development in the middle of Maidstone town centre. It has a good…read moreselection of shops - Next, Schuh, River Island, Republic, House of Fraser, Beaverbrooks - to name a few. There's also a few coffee shops dotted up and down the street. My only advice to people shopping here is NOT to park in the underground car park - they charge extortionate prices to park the car. You are better off choosing one of the outside car parks like Brewer Street.

Gary found the perfect suite for me shirt, tie and and even special ordered the waistcoat as never had my size. Fully altered to perfection and fits lovely. Please stop using big outlets and use our local businesses as you will not get this service anywhere and Gary and his team are credit to themselves and that's why they have been in business over 30 years.

I am a great lover of any Primark store, whatever it may be. However I think the Maidstone store is…read morevery good. It is located at the other end of the High St, near Woolworths, is set over two floors. The ground floor is mainly women's clothes and accessories, and the 1st floor is home to men's clothing, children's clothing, home ware and shoes. Every time I visit the Maidstone store it always appears to be very tidy and well organised. I hardly ever see items of clothing left on the floor for a long period of time, and it is all nicely presented in the shop. The staff at Maidstone are very friendly and helpful and always on hand to help if you need a different size when trying on clothing.

I love Primark! Granted, the children's section is upstairs, but there's a good sized, quick and…read morereliable lift. At weekends it can get a little frantic, with clothes being left on the floor and on the wrong pegs by people changing their minds with what they've picked up, but there's always a few members of staff doing their best to keep on top of the situation. I've always found the staff to be fine, polite and helpful if a little stressed! The range of clothes is great. The adult clothes can be a bit funny on sizes (no two size 18s are ever quite the same) but they're so cheap and provided you try them on first it's not really a problem. The kids clothes are great - bright and colourful and easy to mix and match when one of the little cherubs gets pasta sauce down the top from one outfit! Personally I think the clothes are very good quality for what you pay, and my 1 year old is still wearing clothes that were bought 8 years ago for my eldest and have been on my 3 year old as well! I find they wash just as well, if not better than some more expensive items, and if something comes home from nursery with orange poster paint all up one sleeve it doesn't really matter!

They have a great selection and if you don't see the size you need, they are a store-room up stairs where they have a lot of the dresses in other sizes.

When I went to get my wedding dress about a year ago I went straight here and after a couple of hours of trying on lots of different dresses found the perfect one! Their staff are very patient and helpful and put me under no pressure to buy anything which I particularly liked after taking up their time for a couple of hours! Once I ordered and received my dress they carried out all the alterations for me for a very reasonable price and the finish after the dress had been taken up was perfect, after all you are trusting someone with the most expensive item you'll probably buy and wear! They also cleaned and boxed the dress for me (for a small fee) after the wedding. I would absolutely recommend them to any bride to be!
