“I love Richlin. It's such a unique store that has incredible prices. It's got that old school, nostalgic feel of stores that have been long gone but has the latest items. My mom and I always feel welcome when we go in. Everyone there is so friendly and accommodating. This store is such a gem in Branford. One of my faves!”

“Having very few options to buy smaller quantities of hardwood in Connecticut, finding this shop was dream come true. Not only is their selection vast and budget friendly, the owner took the time to introduce himself along with concisely answering all of my beginner woodworking questions. I will be a loyal customer from here on out. 10 out of 10, cannot recommend this place enough!”

“I went in looking for some specific tools, and while they had a decent selection, the staff didn’t seem super knowledgeable about what I needed. I managed to find what I was looking for, but it took longer than I hoped.”

“Joe Gulish provided exceptional customer service to help me (homeowner) design and order a custom Andersen window. He referred back to vintage paper catalogs to ensure the rough opening size for my large 1960's existing window would fit the type of new window I asked him to quote me. He was familiar with all of Andersen's custom order options and made thoughtful suggestions on upgrades and colors. I appreciate his experience and patience.”
