The print/copy center at this location is ALWAYS so helpful and accommodating. Nate is awesome and I would not go anywhere else

I was just at staples. The employees were so friendly and helpful. When entering I was asked if I needed help and I did. Once I explained what I needed, the employee happily got me what I needed. Thank you. read more

Great printing services I stopped by for a custom printing project. Joseph was extremely helpful and nice. He made many great suggestions and reformatted my project to save me some money. He was a pleasure to work with. I'd certainly go to this staples for custom work. read more

We have been buying HP printer ink at this Staples for the past 8 years, along with printer paper and other miscellaneous office supplies. We also return Amazon purchases there and until today (7/15/24 12:00 noon) there were no problems. Today, there was a woman working both a register and the Amazon return. There was one customer at her register when I arrived. I waited my turn and a second customer came to her register. I waited again and a third person came to her register. I asked when she was going to wait on me and she said she had to wait on the register customers. Three more people came to her register, she continued to ignore me. She called for another salesclerk to help, but he just opened another register to wait on Staples customers. I left Staples with my return. I had planned on buying printer ink and paper but I'll go to the Saugus Staples from this point forward. I will also send a complaint to Amazon. read more

Really expensive other than that good store. It wasn't like other places where asset protection following you around everywhere..

I bought an office chair here and was offered the extended warranty. The staff assured me it was easy to file a claim if needed. Jan 20th I filed a claim. They asked for pictures and explanations for why the chair seat ripped and the wheel broke. I have submitted them. They have not responded. The claim is pending. They are going to force me to put $100 worth of effort to get a new $80 chair. Sorry Staples- Amazon it is. read more

Staples - Cheap chair, useless extended protection= Go to Amazon next time! - Shipping Centers Near Me - Reading, Massachusetts

A man named Dick that works in the section for signs/printing was so rude and condescending I thought I was on a hidden camera show the way he was talking to me! I was appalled. I was explaining clear as day what I needed and it was him who was confused which led to his attitude. Unreal. read more

This is the WORST staples, ever. The staff is completely incompetent and they always take hours to print even a simple sheet of paper. Extremely unhelpful and rude. Go ELSEWHERE!!! read more

Suprisingly clean and neatly stocked, considering its "Back to School" time for many. Great sale prices, no couupons needed. Staff is helpful, they even walk you over to what you are looking for, now how's that for customer service ;) Overall, pleasant visit, I was in and out, grabbing some supplies for work, no complaints here! read more

This review is long over due. A few months ago I went into staples to return a few items, one of which I didn't have the receipt for. With a non receipt return I would be getting back 10 dollars less than I originally paid. Michelle at the check out was very helpful in helping me find the receipt on my rewards card. It took us about half hour to find it and she was very patient with me. Thank you Linda!! read more

A very poor experience at the Reading store lastnight has caused me to write this review. Called the Reading store, Thursday afternoon and spoke to a Tech named Andrew. He told me he could hold an item(they had six at the time) for me til the end of the business day. He took my full name and noted the item he was going to place on hold. I came into the store later that day to be informed that the item had been sold out and that they don't really have a hold policy. They will hold the item but if someone comes into the store to buy it, they will sell it. That IS NOT a Hold Policy. Being frustrated, I asked to speak to the store manager and spoke to Ed Valle. He didn't check to see if there were any notes left by the day manager or the tech Andrew. He told that they don't really have a hold policy but then said they would hold an item if there was more than one. I asked why associates and managers don't know the polices and why it's not communicated to everyone. He didn't apologize for the lack of communication or education that occurs in the store nor provide me with any customer assistance after having driven all the way up from Boston. He basically treated me like I was lying. Mr. Ed Valle, the first thing you should have learned as a retail manager, is the customer is always right, apologize and treat them as a valued customer. Accept the blame for your fellow associates/managers and rectify the matter. Instead you were appalled when I asked for your full name and I asked if why I was going to report you. You have a lot to learn about customer service. You shouldn't be making excuses and deflecting the blame, take responsibility. It should not matter what tech/manager was on duty at the time, the customer is someone that should be treated the same at any time. I've never had such a horrible experience at a store before. After having driven all the way up from Boston, I decided to stop by the Staples Woburn store on the way home and was treated the way I expect. Constantine, the tech at the store, was super helpful, consider it and went out of his way to find the item I was looking for. Kudos to the Woburn Staples. I recommend to all to drive the extra couple of miles to go to the Woburn Staples and avoid the Reading Staples like the plague. read more

Staples has most of what you need. I find them lacking with the most recent technology. If you need office supply stuff then stop in, but If you need the latest and greatest you might not find what you are looking for here. read more

A routine stop to this staples on the way home from work to pick up a few office supplies. I need to mention how helpful and informative the young lady at the register was. Shayla was very helpful in directing me to the proper areas. If she is typical of her generation there is still hope for the youth of the world. read more

Went to the staples copy center in Reading , ma. No one at all the counter and wanted a few color copies / enlargements. Young girl at register finally looked up from register and asked her for a few color copies / enlargements . in a condescending tone she said she could not do them now and I would have to leave them. Six copies !!!!!!. I left and will go to Kinko's. Not what I would expect on such a small order - image if it was larger! Happened on more than one occasion at this location and will scratch this location off the list if copies are needed read more

Been there several times and have to admit they are good. Reasonable friendly staff who are actually knowledgeable. Not bad!!!!

I recently had some birthday banners printed at staples for the first time and had a great experience! I ordered a printable file on etsy and was easily able to upload onto the site to place my order online. I called the store to make sure I chose the correct paper weight and Adam in the printing dept was super helpful! On pick up, Adam again helped me with the cutting, which was so great. I will definitely be doing projects like this again and I'm thrilled it was so easy. Thank you Adam!! read more

Sara at copy center so nice. My key lock in; she help call triple A because my phone lock in too. Very smart girl. I wait to do all office shopping until I'm in area. read more

My wife was treated like a criminal yesterday when she attempted to return an ink cartridge. The young woman behind the counter treated her as if she was trying to cheat the system. My wife made it very clear that she understood the retunr was after the alloted time. She also made it clear to the woman that she was not trying to pull a fast one, she was merely trying to return it if she could. The woman behind the counter was very condescending. She was rude and it was undeserving. My wife left the store in tears. I work for a school system and it is safe to say that I will do everything in my power to make sure that we no longer do business with them. jw read more

WHO would have thought I would be Yelping about Staples. I was there on a busy night when people were shopping for back-to-school and I had the most amazing experience. I was at the cash register and a guy comes up and tosses two packages of Duracell batteries (worth $6 each) at the cashier and says, "Give these to her for free." Okay, that was a "wow." He told the cashier that he could go on break and he would take over. I was purchasing two HP Combo Pack ink cartridges and Dhruv (pr: Drew) Patel, Easy Tech Expert said, "you know that you could save a LOT of money by purchasing the inks that are full"? "Full," I replied, "I thought I they were full." The asterisk next to the 02 and then at the bottom of the package tells you how many photos you get, but I never noticed and didn't realize I wasn't buying FULL cartridges. WHO would think they wouldn't be full? Dhruv took the time to point out the differences to me and I purchased two "full" combo pack. I spent more money, but I won't need ink so soon. I never really had an allegiance to Staples, but I do now, at least the one in Reading because of Dhruv. And good for Staples management for empowering their employees to make decisions on the fly and take the time to really help. -- Cindy Davis read more

I was shocked by the review from p. b. I use the copy center's self service area quite often, and am always greeted warmly. I have had the machines jam on me occasionally, but that is a problem you would find with any copier with such a high production. Also, I've talked to the employees in that area and they informed me that there are never more than 2 people working there at a time. Typically there is just one person behind the counter. And when i do ask for them to make copies for me, they are always very helpful, and the only time they are unable is if they are already using their machine. I have also always found them to be knowledgable, and have had them do larger jobs such as business cards and presentations that always come out exactly as i wanted them. I will certainly continue to use them as i have in the past. read more

It's usually a convenient place to get everyday supplies. I purchased a new laptop, and at their suggestion, brought in my PC for them to transfer ONLY my Office files to the new laptop. They promised it for noon yesterday after a 9:00 drop off. I told them I absolutely needed to bring it home last night. I stopped by at 12, at 2 and called at 7:30 pm to find it still not done. I called at noon today and they still weren't finished but would be in 20 min. So I arrived at 1:30, and I'm still sitting here, wasting time, while they tell me, almost done! Then, Sorry! The tech staff is overwhelmed, and though they are polite, they've been lying to me for the past 27 hours. Still "Not yet.." How long for one day transfer?? I've transferred the whole hard drive in just a few hours. Totally unacceptable. read more

Watch out for the rebate reward cards. They do expire. And, they will not reissue.

I was very impressed with the print/copy center at this store. Gil R answered all of my questions and even went above and beyond to help me fix my invites when my event got changed on me. Excellent customer service. I would recommend this store for the copy/printing services!!! read more

Since I have been working in Wakefield this has been my go-to Staples. They have almost everything I need and when they do not the staff goes out of there way to find it for me. I was looking for a shipping box with weird dimensions that they did not carry in store. The store manager went out back and came back with an old box that would work perfectly for me. He did not have to go that extra 10% but he did am I am a very happy customer. Keep up the great work. read more

on the road a lot, often need to stop in @ this chain's locations for something, this outlet in particular has the worst customer service, ex. ask them a question & they tell you that you need to look it up online 90% of the time. And a quick copy? don't even bother asking one of the 3 people behind the desk. I personally am not a fan of self-serve but feel like I am putting them out asking for 5 copies...well, one machine doesn't staple, the other either jams or misaligns the image or starts spitting out blank pages within printed pages, the only "good" one jams every 200th copy (like playing russian roulette, sometimes you get lucky sometimes ...) & they are aggravated at you for jamming it, like you did it on purpose. One of the machines I used left a mark which they said was a scratch on the drum, but they never took it out of service or fixed it for close to a year & in my haste I'd fuck up & run a job on it, then have to go thru the hassle of having them credit my credit card THEN go back to one of the other clunkers. Avoid this place at all costs!!!!! if you are in the area Saugus has great people working there, and Woburn's not bad either. read more
