    I frequent this departmental store.. I like it for its locations and it is usually not very crowded. They have a good range of products of pretty good quality and price i deem reasonable.

    My favorite department is the skincare, perfume and toy department. The range and brands of the skincare/fragrances products are good and comprehensive. They have all the big names and the service is excellent. The staff was mostly kind to help and prompt as well as attentive. I usually have no problem asking for directions on the merchandise I would love to find...

    The Toy department is also large with the latest models of toys usually available. Price is average, just similar to the other departmental stores... Love the fact that its not too huge as such I won't lose my shopping pals in the mall.

    Metro is a great place to shop and this outlet is been there as though since I started shopping in orchard road.... When I shop here, it brings back the good memories of my childhood...

    Great Store

      I am impressed by this Metro branch. I was in the toy section browsing for a toy, and the salesman was actually dressed in a black suit and tie. I find it a little funny though, that the sale staff in charge of the toy department has to be so formally attired.

      Anyway after a toy caught my eye, I make some inquries about the price, and he was able to answer to all quires. After I decided on the toy, he walked all the way to the cashier with me.

      However I do find some of the merchandise it carries more on the steep side, price- wise. For example, I stopped by its bedlinen department, and I find that all the brand it sells run into over $50-$60 just for a bedsheet set with pillowcases.

        My experiences at Metro (Paragon) suggest that it offer excellent service compared to other department stores. This is due, largely, to it being situated in the heart of Orchard Road, and in a mall that is home to numerous top international labels.

        But all good things come with a price. Although the price its merchandise don't run into the thousands, like some of its neighbouring shops. Still don't hope to find a shoe for $20-$30, as you would find in most other department stores.

        Mentioning shoes, once when I was shopping for a new pair of heels there, the salegirl was patient and polite. I tried on several different pairs, she took them for them to try and helped me put them on.

        Another time, I was in the bedlinen department as I bought a comforter set, I found it too cumbersome to bring it along as I shop, so I left it with the sale staff for a while. They were also helpful in my choice of new sheets.
