The Good

  • Low prices for big brand items
  • Kohl's has 55 years of experience
  • Unlimited time to make returns
Kohl's has developed a large customer base for reasons including but not limited to:

Low Prices for Big Brand Items

Saving money when shopping at Kohl's is simple. Kohl's consistently run multiple promotions throughout their site, helping you as a shopper save as much money as possible. They have fashioned their online store with the same discount/money-saving model they use in their physical stores that has driven retail sales for years.  There is a good amount of content duplication between the online store and physical stores. There are also many unique products in the online store that are not necessarily available elsewhere. Not only are there consistently many items of clothing for sale, many of the items are from top brands in the industry. Kohl's has a great blend of top brands mixed with their exclusive brands to provide their customers with stylish and affordable options.

Kohl's has 55 Years of Experience

Kohl's has built itself up to become one of the strongest clothing retailer brands in the United States. While this brand growth hasn't occurred over night, it has occurred and is evidence of their large and supportive customer base. Being in business for 55 years has evidently taught them how to both describe and implement their various policies, helping make their shopping experience one highlighted by transparency and ultimately satisfaction from their customers.

Unlimited Time to Make Returns

One of Kohl's most popular policies involve the way they handle returns.  Truly a no-hassle/no questions asked policy, customers are given an infinite amount of days to return items of clothing. With no questions needing to be asked, no receipt is required in order to complete a return. Charges can be credited back within 12 months of the actual transaction date. If a return needs to be made outside of those 12 months, customers can be given in-store credit or a corporate-issued refund. Customers love this policy as it makes getting items returned fast and easy. As you can imagine, most of the time customers are pretty happy when they return an item to Kohl's.

The Bad

  • No free shipping offered
While Kohl's online store excels in many ways, there is one area they fall short in when compared to other top clothing store competitors:

No Free Shipping Offered

While Kohl's shipping rates are competitive, there is no free shipping offered at this time per a policy. For example, many other online clothing stores offer free shipping on all orders that exceed a certain amount of money. Although their is not a policy in place for free shipping, gift cards are typically sent out for free shipping when orders are over $75. Minus the fact that they do not offer a free shipping option, their rates for freight are competitive with the rest of the industry. They use a tiered system, meaning your shipping costs fluctuate based off your total amount of clothing merchandise being purchased. The two primary methods of shipment are Standard Ground and Priority Air. As was already stated prices vary, however it is reasonable to expect paying between $6 and $25 for standard ground and $16 and $60 for Priority Air. Standard Ground takes between 3 to 6 business days and Priority Mail takes between 2 to 3 business day. Not having any type of free shipping policy is unfortunate, but as you can see their shipping rates and time frames are reasonable when shopping for clothes online.

The Bottom Line

Kohl's is one of the best online clothing retailers in the industry, especially when searching for affordable low-end clothing. They do a good job at reaching more consumers and have a good handle on the online paradigm. It is easy to like the interchangeability and sharing of items between the online site and the physical stores around the country. The return process is very easy if you purchase an online item because you can easily return the item to any store, with or without a packing slip. Due to their low prices for big brand items, 53 years of experience, and fantastic return policy we recommend shopping with them online.

E Jester Baltimore, MD

I like Kohl's voucher deals. This has always been a plus to get an incentive and discounts at the same time. I love most of the items they have for men because I shop for my son here often. There is a shortage of skirts for women. I can never find an age-appropriate skirt for me and I like wearing skirts. I use to go to Sears but they closed. I thought Kohls would have been my next best selection but their clothing section is very limited. Not to mention it takes forever to pay a Kohl's charge off. I have to shop in intervals to pay down on the card. If I can make a suggestion to Kohls, try to get more age-appropriate skirts in your inventory for women 40+. I have cargo, jeans, and mid-length skirts purchased from Sears but Kohl's is my shopping store and I expect great things when I walk through those doors. Deals are abounding but the selection is limited for older women. Thank you for the vouchers.

I have shopped many years at Kohl's. and was a preferred customer. In the last 2 years, I have noticed the prices have risen and the coupons aren't as flexible or generous. Their inventory is much less than it was in the past. Popular sizes are often in very short supply. You can order an item from their kiosk but I like to try on things so I don't have to return to the store to return it. Kohl's cash also has a dark side. You can't choose not to take it. Even if you don't use it, your refunds are decreased if you have to return something.

Kohl's has more expensive clothes than I normally like to buy, but I do love to shop at their workout department. They have a lot of different work out clothes. I really appreciate that they have modest clothes and am willing to pay a little more for that along with the quality.

Kohl’s is a great place to shop, as long as you don’t have any issues that need to be addressed. I had a package that did not get delivered to my address and it was a nightmare. After several calls into customer service, unkept promises and hours on the phone, I finally gave up trying to get my issue resolved.

Kohl's is a pretty good clothing store but I am confident I would enjoy it a lot better if the layout was way more organized. It honestly doesn't make any sense the way the have everything set up. Also, the check out line is always ridiculous!

I think Kohl's is very messy. All their clothes are thrown everywhere, and it is at all stores in my area, not just one. They don't have great quality either. Their merchandise is mediocre. They do have great incentives and sales though, which keeps me shopping there.

My experience at Kohl’s has been very minimal I haven’t had too many issues with it once again I haven’t spent a ton of time in there I do wish their clothes went a little bit larger into the plus sizes for women and even the big and tall for men’s I think they have occasionally a few things in there but once again being a bigger girl I wish that they did have a little bit higher sizing but they don’t so it’s OK everything else that I’ve ever bought from there seems to be good high-quality though

I have a Kohl’s card so I get free shipping once a month which I like. I also like that I can use Kohl’s cash on anything including Nike, Under Armour, etc. I don’t like that I feel like all their prices are super inflated. Often times I order online and more than once my order has been wrong and when I call the item I wanted is gone and they don’t do anything about it which is frustrating. They could at least offer a replacement or a coupon or something.

Kohl's has grown to be my least favorite place to go. I usually just go to Amazon online over visiting the store. The local store has limited sizes of clothing and the price is usually higher than other big box stores.

Kohl’s online experience has not been my favorite. At times I have found price discrepancies between what’s posted online versus whats at the store. Also compared to other online clothing retailers, Kohl’s prices are on the higher side.

Kohl's online is pretty easy to navigate and filter down to the type of clothing that you're looking for, and their selection is pretty decent. I've found that almost everything that you can find online, you can also find in store. It all depends on what's most convenient for you whether it's worth it to pay and wait for shipping.

Boy do I hate to love Kohl's! Such phenomenal prices, discounts, etc., but the clothing isn't quality, for the most part, and they don't have policies for the oversight of ethical labor practices for the clothing manufacturing. BUT I will buy the heck out of anything else they sell!! Kitchen items, toys, etc.!

I have shopped at Kohl's for a number of things . Mostly when I'm looking for something less expensive. You can usually find under garments for cheaper than the big name stores. I like their % off discounts. Customer service was great to use when I had forgotten my credit card one day.

I like the products I get from Kohl's, but I never know if I'm getting a good price since they always have tons of mystery coupons and codes floating around. I don't like feeling like I need to search for every possible discount - just mark things at the selling price.

Kohl's sends out coupons fairly often, which is awesome. But when store product is not on sale, it is often very overpriced for the quality in my opinion.

Fix your internet! It's so hard to use the wifi in your store. Coupons are offered and it's like you don't want us to use them. We love your coupons but would like to access them while in the store.
