Just about everything you can want/dream of to buy is at the King of Prussia Mall. Elegant, trendy, clean, hip & well stocked are adjectives I use to describe it. There is always an exciting event going on too. I actually met several of the Munchkins from the original "Wizard of Oz" movie several years ago when I just happened to be there one day w/my daughter. They were signing photos & we got to spend a little time talking to them. I have to say I nearly cried as I never in my wildest dreams thought as a young girl I would one day meet the Munchkins.The joy they brought to me over the years is immeasurable. I will treasure that photo & the memory of meeting them at the King of Prussia mall forever. If you need a small inexpensive purchase or one that is very costly you have come to the right place. There are plenty of kiosks that offer a multitude of unique items too. Everyone who is employed at the mall seems to love working there as I have NEVER had a bad experience with any employee. The employees are helpful & will offer help even if you need an item that may not be in their store. There is a small play area for toddlers, a variety of restaurants to choose from. You can get a quick meal in a casual setting or have a fine dining experience if you so desire. The information desk attendants & the maps you can obtain help a lot in navigating this huge double mall. If you have disabilities there is help for you. There are plenty of benches to sit and rest or just people watch if you like. Parking is usually no problems unless it is the week of Christmas! Some stores even offer valet parking if you want that too. The grouping of stores is very well planned as many stores that appeal to the youth are sort of grouped together & the more upscale are also grouped. A new addition to the mall is Dicks Sporting Goods which took over the 2d floor of the former Sears store. There are exciting events taking place all the time; check the website for listings. Anything from Nespresso Coffee mobile trucks to Sony Playstation events, piano sales & car displays so the events run the gamut of consumerism. There are plenty of restrooms but sometimes finding them on your first visit might be a little hard. People are friendly and very helpful so just ask if you need a question answered! The one thing about this mall I dont like but is being reconstructed 2014 is the cross way between the two malls is for the most part covered but when it is raining or snowing you get the elements on your head/body. That is being fixed thank goodness but wont be completed for a long while.

I was excited to go to the USs largest mall in terms of retail space. However, I ended up disappointed. Ive been to the Mall of America, as well as the Natick Mall (New Englands Largest). Based against those 2, this mall fails in comparison. Heres why: 1. Price - everything here I felt was overpriced. No sales. I go to Macys often at the Natick Mall and they are ALWAYS on sale for everything. Nothing here. 2. Store Selection - Sure, they got all the major stores. But what large mall doesnt? Whereas Natick and Mall of America have interesting stores to supplement; this mall has a load of stores I wouldnt even dream of walking into, this is especially true in the Eastern Mall. 3. Food Court - This was my greatest disappointment. No chains to be found. I like diversity; but this wasnt diversity. This was: These are our options, go somewhere else if you dont like them. 1 choice for pizza: ours. 1 choice for chinese: ours. You need to supplement the staples. Both Mall of America and Natick accomplish this; KOP fails miserably. 4 - Setup - Mall is configured poorly. Mall of America is fantastic, a big cube, you wind up where you left off. Natick is ok, a large strip that curves around. This mall is split in 2 with a long, outdoor walkway that enters into Macys. The West is like a tic-tac-toe board. The East is a boomerang. Macys feels claustrophobic. You find yourself tracing and retracing your steps; which sucks considering how far you have to walk. 5 - Clothing selection - Oh my god, what a disappointment. Im a guy. Think I can find a pair of corduroy pants for less that $50 in the second largest mall in the US? Nope. The Old Navy had THE smallest mens selection I have EVER seen. Gap as well. Guys get completely ripped off at this mall. If youre a guy, you will hate this mall. Overall, the mall did not meet my expectations or even come close. Sure, its got your stores; getting to them is a battle not worth fighting.

“2nd largest mall and its beautiful” Had been to N no of malls and premium outlets all over the east coast, but nothing matches its architecture/beauty and brands. I read in reviews that you ll face difficulty in parking, not sure why they wrote it as parking was easily guided and available YES, its huge And unlike any other Simon mall, it has been architected beautifully What I like most is , its user-friendly touch big screen map It ll show and guides you any store by giving live direction and any kid can understand it. There is savour at a certain distance so that you wont have to walk all the way to the food court. Food courts are at every level. It has 3 levels and structure of each level is different. I like the part near around Louis Vuitton. Seating and charging arrangement can be found everywhere in the mall. Management really worked on these parts. It has all the big brands along with expensive brands. It’s almost impossible to roam every story in a day. New stores are coming soon despite having 1000+ brands I went on Saturday and lots of people were there but still everything was smooth. It did not feel like so. Definitely visit

Okay, I live in King of Prussia, so I shop there pretty much for everything. I can give you all the great details for all the stores any high-school kid might check out. Lets begin! DONT: Go to Delias. The staff there are EXTREMELY overbearing and literally (IN EVERY SENSE OF THAT WORD) shove clothes into your hands. Once I went there and they just bought nail polish for me. And I had to pay for it, after the lady scanned it. Even after I specifically said that I dont want nail polish. Its AWFUL. DO: Go to American Eagle!!! They have sales basically 24/7. Its almost always 40% off, its great. DONT: Go to Abercrombie, unless youre one of those people that cant smell (hey, i know someone). Hollister is bad, yes, but I got a migraine after one minute in A&F. The thing is... I dont even get headaches from smells. But I did there. It doesnt even smell good, and the prices are terrible. DO: FOREVER 21. Best prices in the universe and fabulous style. Not to mention we have two stories! YAY! Also, we have a Guys and Kids sections. Same goes for both of our H&Ms.

This is two malls that were combined into you, making it one large mall that is poorly designed due to the combination. What it means, ensure you check their map and park near where you want to go, otherwise you could have a very long walk and get lost. But, almost any store you could want is here. Its a huge mall that had to create a second, so I do appreciate that they combined then. Due to its size, it has two food courts, one near each end. This makes it convenient since the mall is so large. Overall, if you want to spend the day shopping, its hard to find a better place. If you want to go to a place to visit a few stores, you might spend the whole day shopping, just to walk from one to the other. Overall, a great mall, just extremely large, which can be good and bad depending on your type of shopping trip.
