“This is my go-to local hardware store. They have a little bit of everything. I buy 20-pound bags of black oil sunflower seeds at a good price to feed birds. They have a great selection of lightbulbs. Seeds for spring planting. Potting soil. It's a great place to refill your LPG tanks. The staff is friendly and helpful. You can order ahead and enjoy curbside pickup.”
“I had a great experience with Aubuchon Hardware today when shopping for Adirondack chairs. Meghan was so nice and very helpful, she went above and beyond to help me find what I was looking for. Great service all around!”
“Recently purchased a new gas grill from this store (Sudbury, MA) and Mike and his co-worker were phenomenal at helping me out not only with the purchase but delivered it and set it up for me! Love this store!”

“Product was as described. Wasn’t sure if product was actually in store, but I called and the gentleman that answered the phone Allen, was extremely nice and tagged the product before. I actually even purchased it. Picked it up today. Pick up was very easy. Excellent service!”
“Monnick is truly wonderful! After unsuccessfully trying Lowes/HD to get some keys copied I stopped here. They warned me the keys may not work as Chevy requires chipped keys, but I asked to try anyway. They happily attempted my request. Then once I got to pay I realized I left my card at home and my apple pay wasn't working. I was so embarrassed but they said no big deal, gave me my keys and said come back and pay later! I was honestly shocked! They didn't have to do that, but they did!And I'm happy to report the keys worked!”
“A great family owned business. Excellent service and knowledgeable staff put them head and shoulders above every other hardware store. Since they are affiliated with True Value, the prices are good also as they buy in bulk with the big dogs.”
“I’ve been living in the area for more than two decades and it has always been a pleasant experience for me there. Staff is all polite and helpful, I actually received a wonderful service from this young black man with glasses(should have asked for his name!). He was not only very knowledgeable and helpful, he went above and beyond and replaced my license plate for me. New screws for replacing my license plate was one of the things I needed to get at the store. He was so very kind and his customer service skill was exceptional. Thank you so much and I highly recommend this hardware store if you need anything!!”
“It is always a pleasure doing business with this team in Littleton. We ordered cabinets and counter tops from the new showroom and are very happy with the customer service provided!”
“The quality of tools has improved tremendously over the last few years and their warranty works well if you are a member of their club. I replaced several items without a receipt no issues.”
“Picked up a clamp which cost around $2. It seems like there is minimum requirement for credit card (makes sense due to high credit card fees). Checked the car, no cash. They allowed me to take it as I needed the clamp. I will drop the cash later today. Nice guys. You wouldn’t get this level of service in big name stores like home depot”
“Great location for a Harbor Freight. This store is well stocked and easy to navigate. Perfect for homeowners or a small business owner. The quality of the tools has gotten better through the last decade while the prices remain low. 5 stars!”
“I've been using Harvard power for various things usually for company's I've worked for over the years and now for myself and most the time for commercial name brand OEM parts. (the right parts the ones that work) that can take some time to get and usually expensive....for everyone including them. Never had a bad experience spending other peoples money or my own at Harvard power. Thank you”
“This is your typical Ace Hardware and it has just about everything that you'll need if you don't wanna have to drive all the way to Home Depot. The people are friendly and the store is clean so I recommend this hardware store.”
“A model for what a local hardware store should be. Staffed by a mix of adults who know exactly how to help you. They also employ local kids who are usually pretty helpful, though they are just teenagers so manage your expectations! They are kids working a first job, and I see a lot of people (both in the store and on Yelp) mistake inexperience with rudeness. Selection is good for a local place, though more niche items may require a trip to a larger place. Importantly, they do not carry much of anything in terms of wood and lumber, though they have a decent power tool section, including Craftsman, Milwaukee, and Stihl. Painting, plumbing, hand tools, grilling, house care, yard care, and screws are examples of the areas they cover pretty well. Value is good as well, matching or beating that of places like Lowes or HD, and Ace is a local mainstay.”
“He has been trying his best to fix this door. Unfortunately nothing had worked. But he is a very polite and pleasant service man and I feel comfortable having him try to fix it.”
“Dropped off a couple boxes for shipping via UPS. It was quick and easy. Years ago I purchased most of the lumber and hardware for my house here. Great customer service!”
“I get my mowers and snow blower serviced at Robinson's in Framingham. They've always done great work and return the equipment quickly. They also clean it! I have them pick-up and drop-off which is huge since I don't have a truck. It costs a little extra but is worth it.They even once picked up my girlfriend's grandparent's snow blower even though they are technically out of range. Now that's wanting to help!The service department is knowledgeable and friendly. I bought my Honda mower here, and will continue to support them any way I can.I have also rented a portable generator from the Hudson store when they didn't have it at Framingham, and they are just as awesome there!I love supporting this small business because they are so focused on helping me. That's hard to find at big box stores.”

“Wonderful friendly staff who helped me not only design my new kitchen but also assisted me with the remodel of the doors and windows first AND the appliances to make it complete!”
“The Home Depot is a Great Place to Shop for Home Project Goods. The Home Depot is the number one Home Retail Store .Home Depot is a great place to work for with Excellent Staff.”
“Nice clean store. Great inventory and stock of what you would expect at this store. Location is convenient and there is plenty of free parking available. Nice variety of stores around the area as well.”
“While the Watertown store is so much closer for me, it is chaotic in there and West Roxbury is often the same. Since I was in Natick anyhow, I stopped in on a weekday around 10am to get one of those mesh screen door things that you walk through (it actually works, not bad for $15). Masks and sanitizer at the front door for anyone who needs/wants it, and I wandered around looking for the item (for whatever reason, the aisle/bin number wasn't online). After I gave up wandering, I flagged down Bruno who found it for me (thanks Bruno!) and headed to the self checkout. Only negative to the in-store experience was the woman in charge of this area: having someone who is friendly would be a bonus. I can't imagine the parking lot on weekends, so go on a weekday if you can (or right when they open on Saturday and Sunday). The entrance/exit onto Speen St has a traffic light and the Route 30 exit is right-turn only (unless you want to just take a left anyhow). HD stores are dog-friendly as well!!”
“People will complain about the retail service here, but this ain't HD or Lowes, it's a supply house. If you need a 2x12 and don't want to burn an hour driving to HD in Waltham and back, they're great. The hours however are limited, since they service contractors.
That said, while I might have to wait or try to get someone's attention, I've always gotten what I needed here from paint to lumber to propane tank refills all while supporting a local shop rather than sending the money to a mega corp.”

“My neighbor lumber yard who delivered to me just a small amount of quality lumber for the DIY swing. I'll ask them whenever I need lumber.I also met with Scott in their kitchen showroom and he helped me a lot to make our kitchen reno project plan clear. I do hope I can figure out the problem on my side and go forward with it.”

“I have been a loyal customer for many years. I often go there with a "challenging project", for which there is no product made for the issue that I am trying to resolve. Rather than running the other way when they see me coming, they listen, think about it, (you can see the wheels spinning), and have ALWAYS been successful in finding a solution, sometimes, going as far as even taking the time to modify another item to make it work!! (Thank you, Joe!) Jeanne”
“You won’t get service like this at the big box stores. Miguel took an interest in my project and personally assisted in helping me with what I needed. Project was a success and I won’t go anywhere else but Butler Lumber!”
