“I bought a 1987 Oldsmobile in Canada that was imported from Chicago in 1991. Have a spare set of keys that were cut by Curtis over 25 years ago. Exceptional quality keys and well worth the cost. Curtis does not cut corners when it comes to quality.”

My car wasn’t producing heat, and I wanted to avoid going to a mechanic, so I decided to buy some coolant. An employee named Bill approached me and asked if I needed help. I simply asked for his recommendation on what to buy, and he quickly sensed that I was a bit out of my depth.
After purchasing the product, I went to the parking lot to open my hood, and to my surprise, Bill walked over to my car. He told me to wait inside while he took a look. He spent about 30 minutes diagnosing and fixing the issue!
It’s refreshing to know that there are still good people out there. Bill refused to accept any payment, saying he enjoys helping others. He truly deserves a raise ASAP!

Dealt w those customers 25 yrs in retail and nothing makes em fell worse than you being cool calm n collected, wtg young lady.”
“First time going to this Ace as it's a little further than the closest one to me. Went in looking for a Stihl leaf blower for my dad and the cashier was really nice and got ahold of someone to walk us through the maintenance and details of this purchase. Once we purchased the BG50 (I believe it was the manager on duty) put some gas in it and took us outside, showed us all the functions and started it before we left. Although I knew how to operate a Stihl my father was very impressed by the service and this location has definitely become my new go to Ace.”
“This place is awesome! I couldn’t find a specific switch at other suppliers or online! But they were able to find me one and knew exactly what I wanted! These two women are amazing and very know!”
“One of the hardware stores in Chicagoland who have everything property management company needs. Windows and screens same day. They just are awesome. Support the small businesses of south shore community and who have been here for so many years”

“VERY COURTEOUS! I LOVE THAT THEY HAVE PARTS & TOOLS, SERVICES THAT BIG STORES JUST WANT LOTS OF MONEY FOR. I LOVE THIS HARDWARE STORE CLOSES IN THE COMMUNITY & IS WELL NEEDED! ?”

“I use John’s Hardware whenever I need to purchase tools and supplies. I purchased a used bike and the customer service was rather subpar. After I was finally informed that my bike was ready I tested it and realized the wheels were not aligned properly. I will continue purchasing tools and supplies as needed. Anything related to bicycle’s I’m going to find another bike shop.”
“The fact that they literally just answer the phone when you call them is worthy of 5 stars. On top of that, everyone is friendly and helpful, and they have a lot of stuff. A pillar of the community!”
“Most of the time they do have what you need they are a bit pricey and don't get keys made they are not good with that, but otherwise they ok just take some extra money along with you just in case of any price changes.”
“Like a candy store for guys.
Honestly the quality of the tools are better than it was just a few years ago.
As a former professional auto mechanic I wouldn't depend on most of the tools if I were still working, but for puttering around they're just fine”

“I regrettably way over bought fittings for a project. Thinking I was going to frustrate the customer service with the excess of returns, the lady I was working with showed 0 frustrations. As the line behind me grew I started to sweat, but the employee stayed very calm and simply called for help. I was taken care of with great customer service and they quickly worked through the line behind me as I hogged one register. I appreciate their kindness, patience, and professionalism! Thank you!”
“I wouldn't compare Plaza True Value with big box stores (Home Depot and Menards) or even Ace, because they provide services that other stores don't, such as window screens, window panes, and rekeying locks. Super helpful and friendly staff too.”
“I called to get a price on some lumber and they were double the price of Home Depot. By the time I purchase a few pieces of what I need it’s cheaper to just pay the $80 delivery fee at Home Depot.Don’t want to bash the establishment but just leaving what I feel would be helpful to other flippers like myself.”
“The owners are great and helpful for whatever you are looking for & even will have a laugh or two with you while In the process. I think that they are one of the best hardware's in this day and age that people can relate with”
“Went to buy a air conditioner and set my wallet down in the store and I believe the manager picked it up and put it on the desk in the main front office. Great store and good people that work there.”
