“Yes. I'm someone who's also looking for welding equipment in this area. Since I remember the time when I fixed one dumbell in my Cabrillo College R.O.P. welding class back in 1986. I even fixed my own stainless steel lunchbox and hockey sticks in my Cabrillo College R.O.P. welding class as well. It's right where cessnone house is. I'm someone who's time traveling back to when was it the best of me.”

“Had a great experience at Ace Hardware today. Liz walked me right to exactly what I needed, no wandering around trying to find it myself. Reagan went above and beyond helping me set up my account so I could get a discount, super patient through the whole process. Jade jumped in too and helped make sure everything came together smoothly. It's rare to get that kind of attentive, friendly service all in one visit. Really appreciated the team effort. Will definitely be back!”

“Gorgeous selection of plants indoor, outdoor, veggie starts, herbs, etc. Prices were fair and everything was easy to find. Staff pretty much ignored us, which is fine because I didn't need help finding anything, but one employee was watching me struggle to maneuver my cart around an enormous garden hose that was in the middle of the store posing a tripping hazard. She didn't try to move it or help at all. So not the greatest staff in the world, but the plants! Tons of varieties of sages and California Natives. Will definitely be back.”

“Such a wonderful business - so lucky to have them in the valley! They just dropped off a load of lumber to my house and I have a really awful driveway and the guy (wish I got his name) navigated it so well! He got a little stuck but worked so so hard to get the truck out never took a break. The hardest worker I’ve ever met! I know how stressful situations like that can be and his attitude was so positive and he was great to work with! Thank you! And we will of course be back!”

You go to home depot or any other big store and there’s never any associates around to ask for help nor are they helpful but here!!! They’re awesome. Pointed me in the right direction for the wire cutter I needed and asked what I was working on to make sure I got the right thing. I was in then out in under 5 min. I’ll be taking my business here on out - Great experience! Shoutout to the dude at the register. He got me signed up with the rewards program and was super helpful the whole time.”

“I highly recommend San Lorenzo Lumber – Felton to anyone looking for a company who offers quality top brand materials for building needs! Specifically, I contacted the Felton San Lorenzo Lumber store for guidance and tips for my new rebuild after losing my home to the 2020 CZU Lightning Fire. And, upon contacting this specific store, I was introduced to Shannyn “Shay” Moore…such a beautiful and kind spirit! Shay has literally held my hand through the process of finding the right decking and handrail materials. What I can honestly say about Shay is that I love her positive attitude…she is not only no-nonsense, but she has a undeniable knack for knowing how to meet your needs without added stress and anxiety. The ideas, guidance, and tips that she provided me has been exceptional! Shay really goes the extra mile! And, by the way, the Felton San Lorenzo Lumber store will deliver your materials and products! You will be lucky to have “Tim” deliver your materials/products; he is so personable, kind, knowledgeable, and friendly – which made this so overwhelming rebuild process so much less stressful. Happily, I can say that this entire process resulted in receiving the personal attention that I have so much appreciated and required! Thank you, Felton San Lorenzo Lumber…Keep up the excellent customer service and provision of quality materials and products!!! So grateful!”

“This is about the Soquel Home Depot. I was looking for a Milwaukee drill that was on sale. The internet was showing three in stock at that price.The problem was that Home Depot has all this inventor spread out in multiple locations so you cannot find anything. Two home depot representatives spent at least 30-45 minutes trying to help me find one of those drills. Sure enough they did and were successful. This is a five star review, thanks to those that helped me. As for the store, management needs to do better in indicating where store inventory is located. Add RFID tags if needed to pinpoint the location within the store so customers/employees don't have to waste 45 minutes looking.”

“I think Home Depot has a lot of of really good items for a great price. The online store is where to go to find anything you found somewhere else but usually at a lower price. I saw beautiful custom tile for my showers online in a boutique store from New York City. To my surprise the exact same tile I found on line at Home Depot for 15% less. I received it via home delivery within a week.”
