Editor's Review
BAUR was selling clothes and furniture to German households by catalogue long before anyone shopped on a phone, and the app is essentially that catalogue with a search box. Breadth is the appeal: fashion, shoes, furniture, kitchen and household goods all sit under a single account instead of being scattered across three different shops.
In practice you get category browsing with filters for size, colour, brand and price, a wishlist that persists between sessions, order tracking with delivery status, returns started from the order screen, and the payment methods German shoppers expect from a mail-order house. Notifications carry sale campaigns, which is either why you installed it or the first thing you will switch off.
The obvious oddity is the 5.0 store rating. A perfect average across 1M+ installs almost always means a thin ratings sample rather than software nobody has ever criticised, so read it as an absence of evidence rather than a verdict. The real limits are structural. The shop serves its own market, the interface and customer service are German only, and a single-retailer app earns its space only if you buy there more than once a year. Furniture is also hard to judge from a phone screen, and sending back a sofa is not the same errand as returning a shirt.

Questions people ask
Can I browse without an account?
Searching and browsing the range work without signing in. A wishlist, an order or a return needs an account, because all three have to be attached to a customer record.
Does it deliver outside Germany?
The shop is built around its home market, and delivery, payment methods and customer service follow from that. Check the retailer's own shipping terms before assuming an address elsewhere will be accepted.
