“We recently remodeled our master bathroom and purchased all the hardware from Bender, Hartford, CT. Bender carries such a wide range of products that the choices may seem overwhelming! However, Melissa, provided all the necessary insights in a convivial manner without any sales pressure. We strolled through the store, reviewed individual choices, and asked multiple questions, enabling informed decisions. Without Melissa's guidance, we would have been lost! While the prices may be slightly higher than perhaps a hardware store, the service and access to expert knowledge, easily compensate for the difference. Once again, many thanks to Melissa for all the help and commitment to customer satisfaction. Keep up the good work!”
“Excellent lighting store with more than enough options! They also have decor and other home needs.I personally used them to do a restoration of a 50+ year old lamp. Price came out to much less than I expected and the lamp is now in perfect working order. Highly recommend for lamp restoration/repair.Employees are welcoming and kind. The store is pet friendly. Parking lot is a shared lot.”

“There's always helpful and friendly staff, they go out of their way to ask if you need anything. Definitely much more convenient than larger store alternative.”
“Simply fantastic - bought a garbage disposal on a Tuesday @ Rutkoski's and it was installed by them on Wednesday - perfect - all star 5 star - go there :)”
“Went in today looking for some staples for a tool and the staff was amazing. While only making a minor purchase they took a lot of time with me trying to find the proper fasteners I was looking for. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. I would highly recommend this business.”
“I’ve been working with Horton since 1975 when I worked with the owners grandparents. They are the best. Businesses just aren’t like this anymore and it’s sad that more don’t track like Horton’s, always toward the quality”
“Harbor freight has come a long way. It's a great place to go if you need to buy a tool that you're only going to use once. They also have some good quality tools now as well.”
“Absolutely amazing one stop shop for all your building and construction projects. From all different types of flooring, to custom handmade tile with the most amazing detail I have ever seen, a extremely large stock of stone countertops, appliances and more. If you are building a new home, or remodeling I would suggest stopping into at least look around. They have so much to offer it is unreal. Their staff is also very friendly and knowledgeable. Great place!”
“At first it was a little difficult to find someone that works there to help me but once I did find someone they were very helpful. I got a carpet for my living room for 1.28 per square foot and its fluffy and soft. Great carpet for a great price. Its a great place to save money on home improvement supplies.”
“They sell lots of tools at very affordable prices. They are not top shelf quality, but they are certainly not garbage, and for the cost, they are a good deal.They also stand behind their products with a warranty that is no hassle...I have been trying to restock my nitrile glove supply for months, but for some reason, they can't keep up with demand. I guess people must be hoarding. Also, the shelf space is much smaller than it once was, so this is seemingly a contributing factor. I have been buying these gloves here for years now, but ever since the Covid-19 pandemic break out, I can't get them. Auto workers are considered essential, so it would be nice to get my hands on a box. I use them because of grease. For Covid-19, I have been using soap and water or hand sanitizer.C'mon man, get more gloves and stock them fuller (more shelf space), like it used to be.Update (11/13/2020); After several months of frustration, I was finally able to buy a box of gloves... they only had the one box for triple the usual cost I was paying...Update (3/19/23);Looks like they finally got caught up with things. Stock has been replenished.The prices of the gloves are back down to Earth.”
“Had the best experience! Mike in flooring does an AMAZING job. He was very kind, helpful and knowledgeable. It was a pleasure talking to him. Would recommend to anyone to come to this Lowe’s because of Mike. Such a hard worker.”
“We wanted to recognize Paul K ( Irishman) who actually stopped and asked if he can help us instead of just walking by and having us track down an employee ( like at Lowe’s). He not only showed us where the products were but gave his advice and recommendations as well. He went out of his way to walk us around the store looking for other things that we mentioned and even offered my daughter a bottle water when she said she was thirsty. It was one of the best service we’ve had , way better than Lowe’s ! You have a great employee in Mr Paul K. I will be coming back to Home Depot over Lowe’s because of your friendliness and helpfulness.”
“It is always a good experience to go to Larsen Ace Hardware. Their product line seems to be well suited to the needs and problems of the average homeowner. - Better than the big box stores. Store associates provide helpful friendly service. The store is neat, clean and well stocked. Also, if shoping online their web site is easy to use and up to date.”
“Brought an old shower diverter . A very knowledgeable woman helped my fond my replacement ....part was spot on it helped me finish my job efficiently .....would highly recommend!!!”
“Jason and Jimmy are great guys who know their industry and everything you will need. As a former business owner in the drywall and ceiling trades, you will not go wrong buying here!! Very competitive pricing and excellent service including delivery if needed. You point and they put it where you want it!!”
“Excellent selection of many types of hardware, from basic to upscale, and knowledgeable sales team has always been very helpful to us in our purchases. A+++ I highly recommend this great store!”
“Truly a gem for machinists in Connecticut. The team here has a great depth of knowledge and an incredible in stock selection, easy to place orders and pick up same day or just go in to grab what you need.Prices are very reasonable, I've often found them to be cheaper than what you can get online.They have tons of specialty tools and advice to get that extra edge for your work that your clients will notice.They really do have whatever you need. Machine coolant, tool holders, specialty aluminum endmills, ball endmills, micro endmills, lathe carbide inserts, shell mill inserts, shell mills themselves, screw machine bits, cutting oils, work stops, vises, etc. and if they don't have it in stock they can get it for you.”

“house keys needed. quick and friendly ... and knowledgeable . very old master key tough one to get right. first attempt failed but a quick trip back and minor adjustments is all it needed. with a smile, beneath the mask ! thanks!”
“AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! Called last minute at Christmas, they made sure they had the tool I wanted since only one was in stock. They shipped SUPER FAST!! Had my order 2 days after ordering without expediting shipping.”
“For serious hardware, and for me, paint supplies, this is the place. Helpful staff, reasonable prices.Weathersfield store on Silas Deane Highway.Would recommend to friends and family.”
“Riding mower broke. Went on vacation and while gone they picked it up, fixed it and redelivered it for about the mid point of the estimate. Mower runs great, now. Just called for a replacement part no one else has, they have it. Those who think they're pricey, it costs a lot to run a business, good help has to be paid and isn't satisfied eating Mac and Cheese dinner 7 days a week.”
“Nice, clean place. This is the first time I'm here, so I cannot comment on pricing or general product availability. I needed one item. They did not have it in stock, and they said they would have to email the manufacturer for a quote and lead time. They were accommodating but didn't have what I need. Don't know if they're well stocked and fairly priced or not.”
“I’ve been going here for years and man i have to say, Papo and the group of guys he works with, are phenomenal. They’re very helpful when it comes to anything i needed help with. I highly recommend this location and this company!”
“So happy to have an Ace Hardware in town. I can find most everything I need including having keys made at the store. And the associates are always helpful and willing to go the extra mile.”
