High quality, reasonable prices
There is something quintessentially British and understated about John Lewis. When I was younger I found it indistinguishable from any other slightly boring British high street store. But while the UK high street has become as brash, noisy and exciting as any other high street in any other city in the world, JL's approach has barely altered. Yes it has evolved - it's a great place to shop - but those quiet, sensible, stolid values haven't changed. On the "bigger, cheaper, faster, brighter" modern high street John Lewis shines like a beacon of high quality, reasonable prices and good, old-fashioned fairplay.

John Lewis inspires my loyalty
John Lewis inspires my loyalty. It's not just that I know it's a partnership, owned by its staff. It's that the staff act like owners. They're professional, knowledgable and seem to genuinely want me to find the right product. It's the mature, sensible, British version of manic American retail service overkill.

Service is not a thing of the past
I trust the John Lewis partnership stores for quality, price, choice, accessibility. Their service is second to none. Their staff (partners) are motivated employees who are keen to convey all the former. In a time-starved age, where service is a thing of the past, JL is truly a Lovemark for me.
