“Ryan helped us with our landscaping and flagstone path project. ( Major shout out to Damien and the crew too!) The results were exceptional and we could not be more happy! As with all major home projects, we had a few surprises come up, but Ryan was always there to work things through with us. As a matter of fact I got to know Ryan so well I now count him as a friend. Red's is very lucky to have this man on their team!”
“THE best plant shop EVER. Don’t walk, run to buy your plants from this shop. The owners know and care about your plant even after you leave the store. Make sure you give them your business. Your plant babies will be forever happy. Can’t wait to stop by soon and get my spring vibes going in my home.”
“I recently received the most exquisite flower delivery from Victor Hlavacek, Winnetka. Every detail was done to perfection. The flowers were gorgeous, the arrangement was beautiful from every angle and the vase was lovely. Even the packaging, including the colorful tissue paper was carefully done to not only look pretty, but to ensure the arrangement arrived in excellent condition. Today marks day six and we are still enjoying them!”
“First went to Lurveys as part of a benefit for Wright Way Rescue in Morton Grove. I came back the next day with my husband because of the great sale that was being held, and we left with one large plant, and 4 large pots. Would definitely come back in the spring for more purchases.”
“I went shopping for money trees the other day in the Edgewater area of Chicago and all of the Asian stores said they will not be selling them until May. So I waited the next day and start searching for plant stores in Niles and found these two money trees to replace the big ones so they can be repotted. The lady helping me find them in the store was very nice and she had very nice plants there. This will be my regular plant store for now. Very convenient and the prices are very good as well. Thanks for helping me find a nice birthday gift to myself!”
“I ordered flowers for a memorial service, and Pesche's came thru with two stunning arrangements for our event. Highly recommend this business. Best wishes.”
“Leiders Greenhouses offers one of the most extensive assortments in the region for wholesale and garden needs. The prices for garden consumers are high, especially for vegetable and herb gardens, there are better options in the area. Compared to other nurseries, the selection of stakes, pots, and cages is limited.
For significant purchases of ground cover, various foliage plants, perennials, and annular flowers, I would suggest this greenhouse. It is not worth the price to purchase vegetables or herbs here.”
“Love Chalet. It’s pricy, but can often find plants I’m looking for that I can’t find elsewhere. They take good care of their plants and many of the staff are very knowledgeable, if you can manage to lasso one of them. They can be VERY busy at times (true of any good garden center). Wish they had a little more room to maneuver among the outdoor plants, but that all said, I’m grateful they have as much as they do for selection.”
“I have a friend who is a passionate gardener as myself, so when her special 'milestone' birthday came along, I wanted to send her something she could eventually plant in her yard rather than a floral bouquet. I chose a pink azalea. Though I live in the western suburbs, I wanted to find a florist in her Jefferson Park neighborhood. I chose Wall's Flower Shop on Higgins but the website was redirected to Donna's Garden Flower Shop near Pulaski & Peterson. I spoke to Avi on the phone and he was extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. This floral shop was extremely conscientious about delivering this fragile plant in the midst of our cold January weather. They called my friend and made sure she was home to receive it. She was extremely excited and thrilled to receive her gorgeous plant full of pretty pink buds. I will definitely recommend Wall's Flower Shop/Donna's Garden Flower Shop to all my Chicago friends!”
“A privately owned greenhouse that has plants you will not find in the big box stores. Amazing ready to go plants at reasonable prices. Please go here first before Home Depot, etc.”
“Me and my old lady absolutely love this adorable place....actually, full transparency, going again tomorrow for our annual trip there for our summer flowers - the people there always treat us like family”
“This update is based on my experience buying wood trim for a project: they have a great selection, and unlike my experience at Lowe's in Lincolnwood, their website is actually accurate and tells you which aisle/bin the item is in (see my Lowe's review for that cluster of a mess). I found what I needed, and they have a sawhorse set up so you can cut trim yourself -- I was surprised that they even had a miter box, as I thought that wasn't something they offered to avoid having people doing their full project cutting in the store. I needed to miter the pieces for my project, but I didn't know the exact measurements and had never used a miter box before, so I didn't want to embarrass myself trying to figure it out at 7am on Christmas Eve in the middle of a Home Depot. So instead I just cut the trim to the approximate sizes I needed with some wiggle room to measure it exactly later, and managed to figure out how to use a miter box at home after watching a Youtube tutorial. So, yay for that. Also after my adventures in elementary woodworking (lol), I needed wood filler/putty because the miter saw I was using was like 20 years old and not the most precise. Their website said they didn't carry the kind/stain shade I was looking for, but when I got there the day after Christmas, they did indeed have it. So, that was perfect. And now I have an awesome, handbuilt coffee table. About 5 years ago I also needed a random 1x4 (or maybe 1x6?) for a single shelf to fill the gap between my fridge and my wall, and one of their staff members used the power saw setup to cut that for me. That was also an easy peasy process. For my future random wood project needs, I'll definitely come here rather than Lowe's.”
“Customer service is everything, and with Ken, Tom and Dave, you have it all. Wide product availability from irrigation, to landscape lighting etc. and convenient location. Great people to do business with!”
“Super fast curbside pickup and very friendly associates! I ordered some caulk, caulk gun and misc supplies and 30 seconds after I tapped “I’m here” I had my items. Thank you for quick and efficient service.”
“I had a great experience at this location yesterday. I needed assistance with a kitchen remodel, and Matt Rodriquez was incredibly friendly, helpful, and knowledgable. I'll be coming back to this location and to him for future projects.”
“Thoroughly pleased with Julie's craft. She is a true master at what she does. Prices may be higher than your average floral shop but Julie finds the best quality product on the market that look the most realistic. She is recommended all over the nation for her designs. You won't be disappointed! The customer service is also top notch. She really has the vision to understand what you are looking for. I would give 10 stars if possible”
“Honestly one of the best resources in my home and work! I rent all sorts of tools for this location and Nick and Larry are incredible, a little gruff but they are fair and knowledgeable. I can’t say enough good things.”
“I went to this Home Depot on my way home from work to get some electrical things. I did not really know what I was looking for but Kevin came to the rescue. Kevin was very knowledgeable and friendly! GIVE KEVIN A RAISE!!”
“I was very lucky today by a gentleman named Art and another helpfull and skillfull who helped me carry items into my car. Excellency on customer service care and very caring compassionate associate.”
“The staff at this location are awesome - always friendly and willing to help! Shoutout to Tuwayne in the Tool Rental section for going above and beyond to assist me with a problem I had.”
“Patrice as an exceptional employee of Niles location really surprised me with her friendly yet extremely professional approach and made my experience pleasant and satisfying. Thank you Patrice!”
“This is the store I usually go to for garden supplies. The store is always clean and well organized, with friendly associates. I had great experience at the store today when picking up 8 bags of garden soil by myself. The store associate Umar generously helped me haul the loaded cart to my car and loaded all of them into my trunk. I would highly recommend this store to anyone in the neighborhood.”
“Only reason why I give Home Depot 4/5 Stars is due to their unwillingness (on a corporate level) to accept NFC Payments (Apple Pay, etc.).
For the record… at this point, ALL three of Home Depot’s direct big-box competitors; Lowe’s, Menards, and Ace Hardware; accept Apple Pay. HD is one of the few-remaining retail companies who continue to take this stubborn stance.
I know this is a corporate issue, but it’s still a bit ridiculous that there are places where I can’t pay with my digital wallet in 2024.
Otherwise, great selection, clean store, and friendly service. The usual to be expected at HD. ?”
“Our office is across the street and our warehouse is about 30 minutes away. I have seen the place but it never clicked that they do take waste materials. We had a mixed full load of topsoil, bricks, pallets, and some other wood stuff in which they took. They charged me a I would consider a fair amount for the load.It was a little confusing upon entering as I didn't know where the office was. I suggest they put a sign up saying Office so new people know where to go. Other than this it was a great place, they were very communicative and very accommodating.One person said it is a lot but everything in the city costs a lot. If I was to pay my driver to drive 4 hrs round trip to dump further away for a cheaper dump price I am still paying the difference in drive time and wear and tear on my trucks and trailers.So in all reality I feel the price they charged was fair given my overall thought of costs.”
“Love this shop. They always have a great selection of plants and seeds, and are super friendly and helpful with any questions I may have or advice I may need! Definitely my go-to for spring planting season, so glad they're nearby.”
