“The staff were extremely helpful in finding the right size for me and were more than willing to find items I wanted to purchase at other stores or online when they didn't have my size in stock”
“My shopping experience at this store was nothing short of exceptional! The selection of trendy outfits is truly impressive, offering a wide range of stylish options for every occasion. What really made my visit stand out, though, was the fantastic customer service. Zainab went above and beyond to assist me, providing thoughtful recommendations and helping me make confident decisions. Her keen eye for fashion and genuine desire to ensure I found exactly what I was looking for made the whole experience so enjoyable. If you're looking for a place that combines great fashion with warm, personalized service, this is definitely the spot. I left with amazing outfits that I’m thrilled about, all thanks to Zainab’s expert guidance!”
“I received really good service on my visit today, the employee helping me was Christina. She has been the only one so far who has been the most helpful in getting me properly measured for my bra size. 10/10 would recommend”

1397 Harmony Rd N, Oshawa“i run an industrial sales business. Service is very important to me
I came in today, someone had bought a pair of jeans as a gift. being of gnome/troll size I take a 34-28. They didn't have any but I must have had 4 different sales people come help me and search. I will grab them from another location. But I was super impressed here and will be back to buy my wife some jeans next week.
What was nice, I appear pretty blue collar. Just jeans and a shirt with a ball cap. My wife is the same yet they treated us like professionals.
Well done. I'm a customer now”

421 Gibb St, Oshawa“I give this store 4 stars because they have excellent staff. Marks appears to have lost its edge in quality and decent selection. It always appears to have a lack of customers these days which is very telling.”

419 King St W, Oshawa“I was in the Melanie Lyne Oshawa Centre location this evening with all of the women in my family looking for clothing for an upcoming family event and even though we didn't find what we were looking for I just wanted to acknowledge the friendly service that we received from one of the customer service associates. I believe her name was Lana. I have anxiety and recently had a terrible experience at another store in the Oshawa Centre and it was really nice to have a friendly interaction and positive customer experience. I hope other stores in the OC will take note.”

419 King St W, Oshawa“I was on the hunt for 100% cotton cargo pants and I managed to find them at this location. I called ahead and Jessica picked up. She was super friendly and she found what I was looking for so she placed them on hold behind the counter. When I arrived again she was so nice. She welcomed me by name with a smile on her face. Her positive energy honestly made my day. Absolutely incredible customer service.Keep up the good work Jessica and thank you for your help!”
“Sickest shopping experience ever. The staff help you pick out clothes that suit the style you're going for and treat you like family. Very cool people and unique pieces that make any outfit make you look like a rockstar. It can be pricy but very much worth the price tag as these are eye catching pieces. Also gave me a huge discount which was so nice. Will absolutely be back!”

“The lady who work today dealing or helping my hubby to get his favorite shoes is very professional and amazing top notch costumer service ? she's the best. Thanks for being such a good service.”
“I visited the OC location on August 2nd, around 11:00 AM. Normally it’s hard to find some genuine help, but today was so great. I had Elina (I’m so sorry if that’s the incorrect spelling) help me with a tennis event I was going to, and I finally found the perfect outfit. She was patient, and somehow knew the exact style I was going for and the style that would suit me best. It was seamless and I couldn’t be more grateful. I really hope I see her again next time!”

419 King St W, Oshawa“I have shared my feedback with the store team and took the time to call the store immediately following our awesome visit and tried and obtain the email address for the district manager. The store manager (Melanie) provided Anthony's email but I have not received a reply to my email to him. I called the Oshawa location yesterday to speak with Melanie so I could be sure I had the correct email address AND to let her know I did share my feedback-as I honour my word, but a young lady (sadly) grilled me on the phone...insisted I leave a message when I said it was nothing urgent. She asked me what it was regarding...not sure what her insistence was about but she was rude. Not typical of my experience.
Alas, I don't have the time to try and reach back out to Anthony nor corporate nor will I try and call to speak with Melanie again but I do believe it's important for the team to get recognized for their exceptional service so this is what I shared in my email:
Good morning Anthony,
My name is "Zee" and my son is Gabriel. We have had the pleasure of meeting the team at Oshawa Centre for a while now but-specifically, we went on May 14th as my son had received the 60% coupon and we had planned to stock up-and we did! ?. Prior to that-though, I visited your store to scope it out-the day before, as my time is limited due to my work schedule and I needed to ensure that-when I brought my son in on the 14th-that there would be items he would be interested in. I met Mckie and Matt that day and they were both so kind.
Gabriel and I came in on May 14th and-to my surprise-Mckie remembered me. Melanie and Mckie assisted Gabriel and I with all we needed in terms of sizes, inventory (Melanie pulling a t-shirt I needed off of a mannequin for me as it was the only one left). We spent quite a bit of time there-as just when we thought we were done, my son spotted the beautiful pink Messe pieces that were in store so Mckie assisted him with selecting and trying on a couple of pieces. Mckie also helped me out with some sneakers. He is kind, attentive, genuine and just so easy to be around. Melanie-I later came to learn that she is the manager. What I appreciate is that she was tending to me and others in the same manner alongside her team. I have been to other locations where it is very different-it is the Manager vs the staff mentality and practice, very few stores showcase an equal relationship but Melanie does so and her and Mckie took great care of us.
From previous visits to that visit-and I have had to make a few visits following that day (to exchange for size etc), the customer service has been consistent. From Matt on the phone, Xvier (on the phone) Davina in person (twice), Michelle (who also helped at cash on May 14th), and I am sure there are others who I cannot name but I have appreciated their smiles when I walk in, it's been a great experience and I have been meaning to reach out to you-In fact, I called the store the day after the big stock up shopping spree, to obtain your email address and the system was down, days later, I know that Matt (I think) tried to leave it for me on a vm and then I finally obtained it the other day when I saw Melanie.
I believe people take more time to complain than to send a note of gratitude for great service. I worked retail a lifetime ago. My son works with the public (at a swim school)...I would hope that people would take the time to share positive feedback of my son and for others as I know it can be very challenging.
We look forward to continuing to shop at this location. Markville was our former location and we have a couple of staff members who were also very kind to us there. I have since learned they will not be there for much longer which is a shame. I return to locations because of the staff. Likewise, i will NOT return to a location because of the staff experience.
Can you confirm that you will share this feedb”
“I took my daughter in for a specific item she saw online. It was in stock and easy to find. Store was uncluttered and well organized.
Checkout went smoothly, Lexi was our cashier. Unfortunately for the other young cashier two women decided to make it their mission of the night to yell, belittle and threaten her due to some sort of order error. As a cashier I'm sure it wasn't even an error she caused or could fix. Regardless she held it together and remained professional. No one gets paid enough to deal with that level of nonsense.”
“Love this store! Great selection of styles and sizes. Staff is fantastic and very helpful. Love when staff is honest on how something looks on you. Took advantage of their great sale and walked out feeling like a million bucks. Keep up the great job ladies.”

1405 Harmony Rd N, Oshawa“A great place to shop for both casual and professional clothing attire.
Friendly and helpful staff members who will gladly bring you additional items in different sizes to the change room area.
It was one of my favourite places to shop when I lived in Oshawa.”

419 King St W, Oshawa“Went there last week the staff were friendly and helped me a lot on figuring out the clothes as i was picking a gift for my friend and the lady forgot her full name Jeet or something was very friendly and recommended some good clothes within my budget. My friend loved your recommendation kudos to you. Will definitely visit again.”

419 King St W, Oshawa“Amazing experience today looking for Mother of the Groom dress. Owner was extremely courteous and helpful in chosing my dress. Wanted something not old looking and not too young looking. Something here for every style so check it out. Wedding/grad/prom casual or cruise wear.”
10AM - 9PM
419 King St W #2360, Oshawa“Nice selection of apparel for work or casual wear. Enjoyed the staff member who helped us and the atmosphere. The prices are fair and exactly what you would expect. I'm really disappointed it what was one of maybe 2-3 stores in the entire mall that didn't have any sales at all, and the staff couldn't tell me if they were having any boxing week sales? Not a great last impression of my first experience at Dynamite”
“The family and I browsed for Christmas shopping. We ended up buying stuff for our selves lol. We bought a blanket, Christmas ornaments, two wallets, Christmas pj's sets. A good howl for a small trip. All the staff were friendly and very helpful. Felt comfortable to look around which made us buy more. Good inventory of items and nice layout of store. Thank you to the staff for being so accommodating.”

419 King St W, Oshawa“The parking is right infront of the doors which is a bonus, its relatively big, but the kids toy section is small.
Pet section aswell, Needs a new VM, to thoroughly organize and maintain the upstairs adequately for customers to walk through with strollers , wagons or even be wheel chair accessible.
Finding a sales associate here is NEARLY impossible. but once you find them they are happy to help you out and go on your marry way.
The clearance section downstairs can use some organizing and maintain the organization as everything is everywhere and makes you not even want to go and look around.”
“First time in this store (ikik) staff was wonderful. There to assist but also gave you the space to shop. Clean, brightly lit and a great sale. Would have liked a slightly larger selection of blouses but will be making a mainstay for trousers!”
“If you're looking for affordable, trendy clothing, Bluenotes is a solid choice. Their casual styles and accessible prices make them a popular option among many shoppers. However, it's worth noting that their selection might be limited for certain individuals, and quality can vary.
Have you shopped at Bluenotes before? What were your experiences??”

419 King St W, Oshawa“Best customer service I’ve received- didn’t catch the staff’s name but she was warm and chatty without being overbearing. Made me feel super comfortable perusing and asking questions :) I’m apprehensive of their leggings as I find they can get stretched out/saggy but their scarves, mitts, hats and blankets are super soft and warm, no issues with them. Prices do seem to fluctuate but they’re just using demand to their advantage- if you don’t want to pay it then come back a different day and test your luck ¯\_(ツ)_/¯”
“I had such a great experience shopping at urban planet in the Oshawa Centre. There is this really sweet girl named Jessica. She was so kind to me. Believe it or not we went to high-school together 5 years ago. As I went to check out, she immediately recognized me and greeted me. I felt so bad because I couldn’t remember her name at the moment. But I wanted to give her huge props for her incredible customer service. Thanks so much Jess.”

“We had an issue with a pair of safety shoes. They were defective from the manufacturer, it had nothing to do with the store or anything. I called and spoke with Kenzie on the phone and she was a breath of fresh air. She was so happy and chipper that it made talking to her very easy!! She told me to come in with the shoes and she would help me out. I came into the store and met with Kenzie and she was even better in person. She helped me right away, knew exactly what the issue was and helped me solve it. I ended up with a new pair of shoes and I’m super happy!! The store manager was there as well, I didn’t get her name but she was very nice too. So if you need work shoes or anything work related, go see these ladies. They will take care of you and do it with a smile. I wish all retail establishments worked like this.
Thank you ladies! I appreciate you and all your help and Kenzie…..stay happy! It’s nice to be around!”
