I'm not saying every Wally World bike is as decent in quality as the average bike you can get at the LBS. What I am saying is that there are some that can be very reliable and serviceable commuters. That's a fact whether you agree or not.
I didn't buy it at the store. I ordered it through their website. When I unboxed it, I couldn't ride it around the block without clicking, clacking, and clunking everywhere. And I know bike mechanics. When I braked, the calipers flexed so much I was worried that they were going to rip right off the fork.
EDIT- Here was the thread I started for my review:
