A few words about the Belarusian knitwear
As customers say, Almond is an online store where you can buy pretty high-quality Belarusian knitwear. These are factory-made items, explained by users sourced directly from manufacturing companies. Therefore, the prices of such products are not too sky-high and quite affordable.
The main advantage of the Belarusian knitwear is the naturalness of the source material. According to many chubby women, dresses made of such a fabric perfectly let air through.
They do not constrain movements. And breathing in them is easy and comfortable. The number of models from which you can choose products for home and office is quite large.

Convenience and ease of navigation

Navigation is available even to those who are not very computer friendly. For example, for greater convenience, the site has special filters that allow you to sort products as precisely as possible according to specified parameters. For example, Almond dresses are more convenient to filter by size, price and status (new products, by the name of the collection).
Feedback and quick resolution
Almost all users who have ever visited Almond (reviews buyers confirm this), admire the quick reaction of company managers to a particular issue. According to them, the site always has online support where you can ask a question and get an exhaustive answer to it almost immediately. Also, the online store has several groups in social networks.
Availability of products with tightening
Many users like the Almond online store (large sizes here can be selected according to the dimensional grid) due to the presence of tightened models in its catalog. Such trousers and shorts, for example, sit perfectly on the figure. Moreover, they are made of dense fabric, so they easily drag out extra centimeters at the waist, buds and other problem areas.
Matching sizes in the Almond online store: customer reviews
Many buyers note that the store’s website has a detailed dimensional grid, which clearly shows how to measure the waist, hips and chest yourself. It is very comfortable. To obtain the most accurate result, it is recommended:
- Measure in underwear or very thin clothing.
- Stand with a straight back (without strain and effort, the posture should be as natural as possible).
- Repeat measurements twice.
- Pay attention to the conformity of measurements with the dimension table.
At the same time, for dresses and outerwear from Almond (the reviews of most buyers agree with the size range in the table), there is a different measuring scale, and for trousers, skirts and underwear - another. For example, if your chest is 108 cm, your waist is 96, and your hips are 116, then when choosing a dress or coat it is best to pay attention to the 54th size.
According to users, in general, the dimensional grid corresponds to reality. But since each figure is individual, it sometimes happens that a product of a suitable size is actually larger in the waist area. Sometimes trousers, according to customer stories, have to be hemmed. But these are, rather, individual features, rather than the manufacturer’s mistake and the Almond store table of sizes. Reviews of many customers are complemented by colorful photos, with the help of which they clearly show the features of their figure and demonstrate the purchase on themselves.
Ease of payment on the site
Almost all buyers talk about the established mode of payment for purchases. According to them, the following payment options are valid on the site:
- By credit card.
- To the corresponding current account.
- By cash on delivery (after delivery of the goods by the representatives of the SDEC transport organization).
Moreover, not only residents of Russia, but citizens of near and far abroad, as well as immigrants from the countries of the former CIS (with the exception of Ukraine) can make a purchase. In addition, the store does not require prepayment at the time of ordering, which is undoubtedly convenient.
Is it difficult to make a refund?
If for some reason the buyer remains unsatisfied with the purchase, then users claim that within 14 days after receipt he can return it. To do this, as a rule, it is enough to fill out a simple return form and provide a copy of the check. According to customer stories, a refund or replacement of a product with a larger or smaller size always occurs without additional proceedings.
Loyal minimum order requirements
Many customers of the store are satisfied with its loyal pricing policy. They also talk about the fact that, unlike others, in this virtual boutique there are no restrictions on the minimum order amount. This means that it is realistic to order only one product and pay for it. That is, there is simply no fixed minimum amount for which you want to purchase the goods. But if you are not a wholesaler, but want to make a purchase at prices for wholesale buyers, this time the order amount should be from 10,000 rubles.
Registration Opinion: Pros and Cons
Some buyers are unhappy that in order to make a purchase on the online store website, you must first register. Accordingly, without registration, making a purchase is unrealistic. However, according to regular customers of the store, usually this procedure does not take more than 4-5 minutes.
In addition, registration has real advantages. So, with the help of "My Account", the buyer can always monitor the implementation and monitor the status of his order. Here you can choose the delivery option and adjust the address, personal data, other information. And, of course, after registering and making the first purchase, you can see the number of incentive bonuses credited to your account. Users also share information that bonuses can be spent on successful purchases in the online store.
Points of issue of paid orders
Another advantage in favor of shopping in this online store is the presence of several points of delivery. It is noteworthy that delivery to them is completely free. True, such points are exclusively in Kursk. In other cities, they are currently not there. So, there is a distribution center in the Kristall shopping center, in a shopping center called Boomerang and Olimpiysky. They all work from 10 am to 7-8 pm.
Frequent sales and discounts
An online store often holds promotions and sales. For example, at fairly decent discounts you can buy clothes when only one size remains, of course, if it suits you. There are also discounts on products from seasonal collections, especially when any time of the year comes to an end. It is very convenient and profitable.
