I love shopping at Luke! Its definitely a privilege if you are on active military duty, retired military, or eligible spouse of military.In the exchange there are multiple businesses and the exchange itself is similar to a single store with the contents of a mini mall. Its got the level of Macys, including skin care, makeup, fragrance, fine jewelry, appliances, home items... Pretty much everything you need right here.Its on base so its not available for anyone without id to get on Base.
I purchased a special order shotgun for my son, and 4 days later I received notification that it was ready for pickup. Luke is pretty distant from where I live but I drove out to begin the paperwork process. I fully anticipated that I would get a delayed release as it has happened before. 3 days later I received an email saying again that my purchase was ready for pick up. I once again drove all the way out only to be told again that my documentation had not cleared, so it was a wasted trip.In each of these encounters I was always treated with a bit of disdain, but I have pretty thick skin so i didnt make a fuss about it. Still, I felt it kind of unfortunate that being a retired Marine I would encounter this kind of attitude at a military installation. I was with my 5yo daughter and our next stop was to register her for kindergarten. It wasnt until quite a while after we left that I realized the counter person did not return my retired ID not my drivers license. Its my fault that I forgot to ask that it be returned, but at some point he must have realized that it was still in their possession. They have all my contact info but there has been no effort made. I cant return because I no longer have identification. And since he knew the transaction was not going to be completed, why didnt he bring it back to me. Again, yeah, I get that it was my error in leaving without my ID, but I find it a difficult stretch that there has been no one aware that my identification was still there.
Not very crowded, nice selection of things.
Love shopping there every chance I get.
Small mini mall atmosphere. Very nice compared to others. Extremely professional, cuteous and customer focused
The clothing and jewelry in the aisles are pricing. It would be nice if the exchange didn’t do this to service members, especially those who just enter and don’t have transportation and have to frequent the store due to proximity.No tax but it feels like the tax is hidden in the prices already.Side note: There are some very decent guns on display which are affordable and payment plans can be put on guns which cost over $600+.
Has EVERYTHING. Friendly and helpful people. Always a nice experience.
Very nice!! Well stocked. Staff very friendly and polite.
Has almost everything you need. Recommend going for clothes and electronics.
Always great customer service 👍👌just wish they stayed open later than 1800
Prices are alittle cheaper clean store.well stocked.
AAFES excellent, but got shunned at the Subway. I just wanted a cup for my dehydration. Had to go next door I believe was Charlies...maybe it was my look!? Soon after some others got immediate attention!
Excellent place for Active and Retired Military to shop and spend time looking for those comfort items Veterans always have in mind. I enjoyed stationed Personnel attitudes and respect that doesnt happen in Civilian Malls, and shopping centers. Not always the cheapest place to shop, however the feeling of security might be worth the extra dollar. Semper Fidelis!!
The base facilities are always very clean and have great layouts.
Their furniture selection is very minimal. But otherwise great prices
Has a nice variety of clothing and electronics.
Decent exchange, did not enjoy the service.
Pretty decent BX, has everything you need and most things you would want.
Very well organized and full of outstanding buys!
Really nice I would recommend it to friends and family
Didnt have what I was looking for. I needed a frame for a flag for a flag ceremony which I expected to find at a military base.
A store ALL in one place.
Took forever to pickup firearm from base exchange. I will never purchase here again.
Its about 40 miles (round trip) for me to visit Luke AFB (usually, specifically, to buy a high ticket item and avoid sales tax). When I DO make the trip, the people at the BX are nearly all kind, patient, helpful, and they DO make it worth the effort.
Excellent place to eat good food
Knowing where all the products are and how much the better the store looks since renovation.
Clean, not very busy and prices are great! We love coming here since it is the only military exchange nearby and we love all the great deals and excellent customer service!
Over Charlies, food was hot fresh and delicious
Very disappointed in the black Friday shopping today. I havent been to a store to black Friday shop in years. I decided the $199 price on a previous gen iPad was worth it today. I waited in line for over an hour to grab one, even confirmed with a clerk that they did indeed have them in stock still. She said they still had many. Got to the counter and Oops just sold my last one. They had the $429 version still available though. No thanks. Why would you not hand out tickets for the amount you have available or immediately inform everyone in line once theyre sold out? Simple fix so peoples time isnt entirely wasted. Very disappointing.& if youre used to shopping at base exchanges this one is on the smaller side with not the biggest selection, small food court as well.
Employees are very helpful and the store is very clean n smells really good
A competitive department store for house essentials
Look I come here for popeyes and basically the food court always good, fresh, and clean. better than anything off base in that same category.
Fantastic, enjoy the shopping.
The exchange had items I needed at a price I could live with.
Like any other shopping center. Personally the price is the same as civilian world.
Pretty weeeeeirdddd experience. I wont name call her, but my boyfriend was checking out, and paying with a $2 bill. The employee had never heard of a $2 bill. She accused him of counterfeit, calling her manager over, and blatantly stating that he was trying to use counterfeit money. The manager cleared it up, but he left without an apology from her.
Very clean . Fast. Cool people
They are very helpful, they helped us find the mattress we need, those 2 ladies are awesome! Thank you
My wife and I love shopping at the Maine Exchange. Everything is always So Fresh, So new and reasonably priced and they take things back that are there without the tag.
Good place to shop. Friendly staff helping with purchases in the electronic department.
Luv the AAFES in store expansion... Power Zone is a best kept secret by far.... Time for curb side electronics sales....Great Savings...
Nice clean exchange on the smaller side. Everything youd need. Recommend tailoring be done at the little Korean place just off post.
Love it. Excellent for a quick bite.
Wonderful there the best
Best steak sandwich place
Very clean. Food court was amazing. Every table sanitized after each use. If civilians were this diligent covid would already be a memory. Military leads the way as always!
Prices are good and the selection is bigger than other exchanges I have been to. The only complaint I have is the same complaint I have with all exchanges. They need more cashiers in the evenings.
All good.
They are done with construction and they always have a great selection, and the prices are on point.
Great place to shop if you are entitled to the benefits. Great pricing and no sales tax. Clean shopping environment with awesome selection on big brand items. Friendly and helpful sales staff. I highly recommend.
Ive been shopping on and off at this exchange since 86. I really wanted to give it more stars, but I cant. This place has a huge potential to be much more. I cant determine if theyre tied to certain products, or management simply isnt dialed in enough to realize that at least half of the items they have are not selling.They have clothing and other goods that have been there for years. Literally. Although there are a few deals to be had if youre a frugal shopper. Id be willing to pay more than amazon prices if they simply had decent products. Most of the store employees are excellent though.Id love to have a management job there. It would actually be fun to help make it a better shopping environment.This place wouldnt make it as a commercial entity.
Great as always. But a out of array due to some remodeling work.
I really feel the military exchange is obsolete stateside. Pricey compared to outside stores. Good quality items but less choices. Convenient if you live on a base but I was there for an hour and bought nothing instead buying at commissary
GREAT SERVICE AND GREAT PRODUCTS THANK YOU FOR SERVICING US VETERANS
Outstanding place
One of the better Exchanges Ive been to. Prices are a bit lower than retail. The store is clean when though the building is old and could use a nice new coat of paint. the thing I like most about this location is that they do offer a firearms section with a nice selection in the store, most exchanges dont offer this.
Great selection of items, was being remodeled for an even better shopping experience.
Nice selection although most offerings are in the high end.
The Luke Main Exchange was okay, many of the smaller stores were closed because it was Black Friday. The large department store had a good selection of products, but I think Costcos prices are just as good if not better. The employees were very helpful and friendly.
They have improved 👏 by remodeling and more options like 👍the civilians. Prices are great.
Great name brand products, very good service.
Very happy with the exchange. Clean store and friendly staff.
Awesome Privilege 🇺🇲
Like always, the employees were very nice and friendly. I went to purchase some ammo and i brought my service dog, no problem with anyone. Great shopping for anyone looking for furniture, guns, clothing, household items or jewelry.
Outstanding, it always is.
I have shopped this exchange for more than 20 years. The service is great, the staff is amazing and I love the selection. Grateful for the opportunity to use the exchange
The purchase in buying more electric cart, would serve disable vets/ senior citizens
They didnt have the German holiday wine I wanted but the shopette did with a 10% discount for 6 bottles or more.
Popeyes.... and mic drop.
Always a good deal with no tax.
Love getting my haircut here
If you are in military but not in air force don’t worry they can help you with everything. Very nice people and very nice place even during this pandemic.
Old habits die hard. After being a military wife for 22 years, going back to the base for shopping is just ...well it feels good. Cant complain about the BX, but the commissary is where I really like to go. I shouldnt be surprised, but I always am, how much cheaper the commissary is than the local grocery stores.
Nice, but lots of construction going on, not a lot of stock
Pretty cool, 1st time on a base in about 45 years. Going thru the gate went easy, make sure you have your ID in order. Shopped at the BX, all went well. Prices were like going to Kohls or Walmart, but pay no tax.
It is a nice facility, it is currently undergoing renovations so be prepared for a little dust.
Getting in and out is pretty quick. Prices are great for most items like big purchase or gifts. Their return policy is good. No hassle so far. Its organized but I always have a hard time finding specific items/variety.
Always great value
I wish the prices were better. 🤨🤨 for being a military base they should be better priced, its not like the service men make a boatload of money. Geeze work with them!
In the middle of a remodel. Its a mess right now but Im sure that it will be outstanding when its finished.
Great place all the way around!
Good service and choice of products. Not at all crowded.
Ordered on line for TV. Back ordered. Any idea shipping time, NO. Will it ship? I dont know, response from Customer service. I cancelled my order, price was great but they DO NOT update the website quantities. Good luck dealing with these people, THEY DONT CARE!!!
First time ever to visit with my husband, very interesting to see a really military base. Everyone there was very kind and polite. Prices are about the same as a civilian shopping center. It was a nice visit.
The staff was very helpful, when I couldnt find an item. The store is under a remodel so its in a little disarray.
A lot of remodeling going on. If you wanna eat limited sheeting available.
Great shopping here..
Awesome experience. Wonderful staff, very helpful and pleasant to deal with. I appreciate what the Army Air Force Exchange System does for our Military Men and Women!
Love this place wish I lived on base everybody there is nice and the women are very nice as well they actually smile at you back unlike other places... This place I would love to call home the Luke air Force Base is awesome!
Nice small exchange and commissary. Its Arizona so super hot outside but AC inside is nice and cool. Staff are friendly as well.
Never been before so very neat to visit. As Im not military, must be with someone who was/is in military. Must register at visitors center with photo ID and have background check before they allow you to enter. You see TopGun jets and exchange (department stores in with everything u need) commissary (grocery store, fast food restaurants) roadways are very clean, people are all very nice, respectful and considerate. Must visit.
Really good!
