How can you not love REI? I'm not really sure what type of personality that would be. Probably insanely boring. REI has great gear for hiking, camping, all sorts of sports and you can't beat being a member.\n\nThe store in Tempe is pretty clean and fairly close to my house. The staff for the most part has always been helpful aside from the one time I was told something I wanted didn't even exist (yet it was available online).\n\nI have to lower them to 4 stars because there's been so many times I've had to order from REI online and have it delivered to the store because they didn't carry what I wanted.
