I’m not sure if the sizing is forgiving or off. My DD generally wears her age in size but has worn two 6/7 dresses since she was 3.5 or 4. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827275 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 10:29:37 +0000 Iced Tea 2827275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Miss Flamingo: We love the pockets! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827242 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 08:59:23 +0000 Miss Flamingo 2827242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks guys! I think I will order some of th dresss. My daughter will only wear twirly dresses, and these have pockets so I know she will love that 😍 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827191 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 20:40:46 +0000 ShootingStar 2827191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a couple of rash guards and a bunch of socks a year ago. The rash guards are fine but the socks got completely threadbare a couple months ago. I was really disappointed because they were like 3x what I’d pay for socks at target and DS didn’t even grow out of them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827187 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 20:31:27 +0000 SweetCaroline 2827187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Primary, their fabric is so nice and thick. My experience is limited to the leggings and the tops that are dress shaped ( :silly: I'm exhausted). The leggings are far better quality than the Tea leggings we have. My DD is tall and skinny and they are so perfect for her. I can see what @petitenoisette: is saying in the fit, so for us they work perfect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827182 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 20:18:33 +0000 Iced Tea 2827182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My three year old has been living in primary dresses for nearly a year. We also have shorts, leggings, tees, baby pjs, onesies, and baby tees. We have received very high quality items that have held up great. I stopped buying mini Boden because I like primary’s fabric a lot better. It’s so soft and flexible. Out of about 25 items, I found two to be less than stellar: one black onesie faded a bit and one dress shrank more than the others. Overall, I highly recommend them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827152 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 17:39:56 +0000 Woolly Mammoth 2827152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the quality is good. I have some things from Carters that I love but I think primary is generally better quality.</p> <p>One thing to keep in mind is that they don't have sales so the prices are stable. You can get better deals for basics at other stores but you often have to wait for a sale or make sure you type in a code. Plus, they have free shipping without a minimum order. It takes the stress out of it for me, which I appreciate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827106 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 14:07:52 +0000 petitenoisette 2827106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter loves her dresses from primary. Two are hand me downs and considering that I think they’re holding up super well. </p> <p>We have one pair of leggings and they don’t really work for me LO, they’re very long on her but the waist is tight so I don’t know how well she’ll grow into them. I thought the legs being so long was extra weird bc the dresses we have all fit her great (though they might be too short on a taller kid, she is definitely petite). So quality great, sizing it’s good they have free returns! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827103 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 13:50:29 +0000 Beehive 2827103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been happy with the quality - I have gotten onesies, baby leggings, and t-shirts for bigger kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827101 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 13:39:01 +0000 Bluebonnet 2827101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've bought several things from Primary (cardigans, dresses, skirts, leggings, shorts, t-shirts, swimsuits, and tank tops) and everything has held up really well - definitely better than Carters or Old Navy.</p> <p>They have free returns, so if you don't like it, you can send it back for free. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827083 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 12:26:55 +0000 Mamaof2 2827083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They are the only PJs my DS will wear - we own 9 pairs of the pj shorts - he loves them and I feel they are a nice quality and wash well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827068 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 11:40:07 +0000 jape14 2827068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually found the quality to be not great. I got a pair of the joggers for my 3 year old son and they faded pretty badly/got worn more than I would have expected. He is not hard on clothes at all and I am pretty finicky about laundry, so I was disappointed. Maybe it was the color (red), but I wouldn't recommend based on that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827065 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 11:35:09 +0000 shabang 2827065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've bought the shorts for under dresses, and my daughter's on her second summer with them. They've held up well. (To me, that's higher quality than carters/old navy) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827063 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 11:33:27 +0000 Mrs D 2827063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the quality is better than Carters &amp; Old Navy. I wouldnt quite put it on par with Tea &amp; Boden, but its nice. They usually have a 20-25% off code for your first purchase, so make sure you google.</p> <p>I bought a lot of their dresses to go with Hanna tights so DD could mix n match her own looks! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/primary-quality#post-2827058 Thu, 07 Jun 2018 11:25:31 +0000 Miss Flamingo 2827058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hello! Has anyone ordered clothes from Primary? I was wondering how the quality is, some of the items seem a little pricey for what they are, but I’d be willing to do it if the quality is better than say carters or old navy. Any experience? </p>
