Review on Amandir by Brian Gordon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Review of Amandir, or Why That Store Isn’t Fun Despite All the Hype I finally decided to give Amandir a try after hearing so much about their extensive collection of entertaining items. Unfortunately, I had a very negative encounter.

To begin, I was not impressed with their assortment of children's playthings. Many of the things had clearly seen better days, and even those that weren't clearly seemed to have deplorable quality. I spent a lot of time searching through their inventory before I found anything of value to buy. Their party decorations and provisions fared no better. There wasn't much to choose from, and what they did have was expensive and of low quality. At a thrift shop, I definitely would have discovered superior alternatives. The website's sluggishness and confusing layout only added to the frustration of trying to buy there. I had a hard time making it through the cumbersome checkout procedure. I tried contacting customer support for help, but I only got unhelpful and condescending responses. In general, I was underwhelmed by Amandir. The brand's reputation for low-quality goods and services and unhelpful staff belies the claims they make about themselves. I would not suggest them to anyone who values a pleasant purchasing experience above all else.

Pros
  • Easily navigable website with good usability.
Cons
  • Sometimes-slow page.
