“I go to all the big box stores for shopping cuz of what I do and I like Lowe's a lot better than Menards but I go to Menards a lot too so I will stick with Lowe's as much as they stay open”
“After having our pool removed, it was time to replace our aging wooden deck with Trex composite decking. We were looking forward to a low-maintenance deck instead of wood.
Our first stop was our local Menards. Everyone we dealt with was pleasant and helpful, but we were a little uncertain about their expertise with a project of this size. They provided recommendations, and we were prepared to move forward until we were told the materials would take 6 weeks to arrive. That was simply longer than we wanted to wait.
We then visited Schillings in Mokena, and the experience was completely different. Throughout the showroom, displays clearly indicated which products were in stock, which immediately caught our attention.
After selecting the Trex products we wanted, sales representative Tom King introduced himself and invited us to sit down at his desk. He took the time to understand our project, discussing everything from the framing and decking to the railings and solar lights. Tom prepared a detailed schematic, complete materials list, and pricing, then encouraged us to review everything with our installer before placing the order. We appreciated that there was absolutely no pressure.
We met with our installer, reviewed Tom's recommendations, and placed the order. We finalized everything on July 14, 2026, and all the material was delivered to our driveway on July 17, 2026.
From start to finish, the service was knowledgeable, professional, and efficient. I highly recommend Tom King and the team at Schillings in Mokena if you're planning a decking project”
“The associate at Menards assisted me in understanding all the parts for installing a porch rail system myself.
This has to be the best Big Box store I have ever been in and there was so much variety and every area was clean and organized
I would definitely recommend visiting the store if you have a project or just want a tool. Come by, you will not be disappointed”
“If you need a true professional to help you out with an appliance purchase, do yourself a favor and head to Homer Glen Home Depot. We purchased a new refrigerator and Kelly was such a huge help ensuring we picked the right one. Thanks to Kelly and we will be going back here for all future appliance purchases.”
“Brandon was so nice and friendly helping my son and myself find the golden lab and puppy blow mold for Halloween. When he found it it was high up on the selves where he had to get a ladder and climb up to get it off the pallet. So friendly the entire time. What a great employee to have working for you.”
“Rating the honestly and communication of the indoor garden department. Ordered a grill online which was only available through the Orland Park location. Unfortunately the item was discovered damaged upon assembly. The store was forthright in communicating the issue and providing photographs, especially Ms. Kris Piccirilli. While this particular purchase did not work out, I would place trust in the honestly of this store's staff in the future.”
“I want to thank Eugene for going above and beyond for correcting a huge mistake with my layaway purchase that wasn't available when I came to pick it up. Eugene made my hour plus drive and bad experience into a good experience. If you go here ask for Eugene the manager he will provide you excellent customer service.”
