One of my favorite places of all time. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. A great selection of quality products. What's not to love?!?!

Thanks to Jonathan for installing fenders on my commuter bike today! I had taken them off because they rattled but then decided to put them back on. I called MEC and asked for the bike dept. I spoke to Jonathan who told me I could bring my bike in and have the fenders put on in a couple of hours. Jonathan put them on and explained why they rattled before, how he fixed that, and tightened the head set on my bike too because he noticed it was loose. Gave my bike the 'drop test' in the store, rode it home, and not one rattle! Awesome service! Thanks again!

I was shopping late in the season for winter boots, but most stores didn't have much inventory in my size, so I went to MEC for the first time. They had a lot of quality boots to choose from and I was super impressed with the knowledgeable staff. I left with a great pair of Bogs, and will be back again.

I had a terrible experience with my recent purchase at MEC last Sunday. I had purchased a tracksuit on my way out I noticed an advertisement for a $50 gift card with the purchase of a sale item over $150. I decided to go back into the store and purchase a pair of shoes I had seen earlier to get the promotion offered.The shoes came up on the cash register higher than advertised. The cost was advertised for $254, I was told to pay $280 and to buy 99cent hand sanitizer to get the promotion offered as the boots were not included.When I challenged this I was given no option for reconciliation and wasted my time and I hope no other hard-working consumers experience this treatment.I will attach a photo which shows the price they were not willing to honour and advertising for clearance that would lead anyone to believe it was included in the promotion.

MEC is fine so long as you stay away from MEC-branded products. The quality has declined significantly since MEC was purchased by an investment company. Half of the MEC items I’ve purchased in the past year have not been fit for purpose, failed prematurely, or got immediately returned due to poor quality. Rain pants that split after five wears, gloves with stitching that doesn’t last a week, base layers that don’t wick sweat…just one disappointment from another. Pay the money and get Outdoor Research, Patagonia, or anything else but MEC.

Good quality items and service. Salesman at the shoe section took his time to get proper fitting shoes. I started wearing them to break them in, but they're comfortable enough to use daily. I bought a day pack on sale online + hydration pack. Still looking for one for backcountry camping. I bought a rain jacket on sale, socks, dry pack and they're definitely better quality than other places. Backpacking is an expensive hobby. Beware, it can get addicting, and it's bad for your wallet. ;)Also, I recommend parking about 5-10 min walk away, near the old Suzy Q's location, since it can get pretty dangerous when drivers are rushing in and out of Westboro and the parking lots there.

MEC is a well laid out store, with very helpful staff. There is always a very good selection of brands from value-priced to higher end. The clearance section of clothing is also quite extensive, and the good prices are found throughout the store. Always a go-to for gear to tackle all kinds of outdoor adventures!

Went to MEC to buy some hiking shoes. The salesperson working at the shoe station, Anthony, was very informative and served me with a positive attitude. Although it was busy, he remained calm and helpful with all of the customers.Highly recommend!

MEC Ottawa is very similar to the first floor of the Sails Ottawa. Stylish outdoor clothing with most outdoor essential. The price varies quite a bit; very expensive but there is always some sales available. They do not sale fishing and hunting gear.
