“One of the smaller Ace Hardware's I've been to but it's definitely one of the better ones. The staff are always friendly and they know their store layout very well. They always point me in the right direction no matter how obscure of an item I need.”
“I went in to the store last night looking for an obscure light bulb and was helped by Pat. We discussed replacement options and he explained why certain bulbs may fit but aren’t the safest idea. He was super helpful and friendly and solved my problem! Thanks Pat!”
“I purchased an air compressor to blow out my underground sprinkler lines . Its capacity is 2 gallons. 120 psi maximum. Total length of the 1/2 inch line was 80 feet. Just had enough pressure to blow out the line, no spare pressure. My system is short and only 1/2 line, so not recommended for most systems. If power was available to plug in the compressor for continuous operation it would be enough.”
“I love Family Farm and Home! It has oodles of things to browse through and everything I need for all my animals. The staff are always welcoming and willing to answer questions.”

“Was helping daughter in GR do some projects around the house. First place i go to in any city is Ace. Nice to find this one not too far from her home. They had everything we needed from caulk, concrete patch, replacement bulbs for landscape lighting and picture hanging hardware. One stop shop. Helpful people always, professional. Always highly recommend Ace over big box stores.”
“HF is my prime source for tools that I need now and probably won't use regularly. Nobody beats them at this game.
On the other hand, they won't replace DeWalt or Snap On for the professional contractor or auto technician. HF's niche is selling tools that work acceptably well at a very low price.
They also sell some tools of moderate to moderately high quality. These, too, are value priced relative to their quality.
On the downside, you'll typically pay extra for warranties beyond 90 days. But that doesn't matter if you'll only use the tool once, and especially if the price is so low you can buy it multiple times and still come in cheaper than the competition. HF prices often are that good. Definitely worth checking them out next time you NEED a tool to finish a job.”

“These are great people! I lost a bolt on my push box and they got me back plowing in no time. They were extremely helpful, friendly, and generous. Can’t stress enough what life savers these guys were! Thanks again for the help. You guys are awesome!”
“I really appreciate the time Aiden (from the 28th St paint department) spent with me today. I had lots of questions that he patiently answered & helped me find the right products for my project. Andre (Dre) has been a big help in many past visits also. Thank you fellas, you are appreciated!”
“I wanted to give a shout out to an employee at the Cascade ACE hardware, Marshall always goes above and beyond helping me with anything I may need, what a great attitude he has. I appreciated all of his knowledge, help and extra efforts in making sure I got everything I needed. Thanks again Marshall!”
“Billy and Tad were very helpful today. Went in looking for an aggressive weed whip head. They did everything possible to help me. Yes we found the head I needed. Thank you for going the extra mile.”
“Not Lowe's fault however their lumber and all lumber everywhere is under sized. Example...I needed a 1x8 random length. Thier sizes were between 5/8-3/4 x7 1/4. The only true size they carry is synthetic and steps. With that said the customer service is 5 star and willingness to help keeps me coming back”
“I think it’s a good place to shop for home improvement. I’ve had everything I needed when I go there and sometimes more than I need. Lol parking is good. The weight in line to check out maybe a couple minutes at the most helpful staff.”
“I’ve really had the best experience at this store. I’ve visited a half dozen times over the last year. They have a great selection- and the staff is nice and helpful. This last time- a lady helped me- I came in about a half hour before close. I have to drive an hour to get there- and traffic isn’t always kind. She helped me get the right coating_ and introduced me to carbide tools.I appreciate being treated well- and I love my new hobby. No amount of online shopping can replace when you get from visiting a brick and mortar store with knowledgeable staff that love the hobby.Within the first few days - I’ve already sold 2 pens, and the lady wants 3 more. Thank you for the amazing experience”
“In this day and age it's often hard to find good customer service. So far this store has delivered every time we've needed help. Wanted to give a shout out to Spencer who really exemplified today what good customer service is all about. Thanks for finding that pallet of potting soil and helping move it and load it in my car. We'll Done.”
“Excellent customer service! The guys at the rental desk were helpful and good communicators. They had no problem rinsing off what I couldn’t sweep out of the truck and trailer on a rainy day and didn’t charge extra for that.”
“Lowes is a great store with helpful staff. Be sure to say Hi to Ruth at the contractor desk checkout weekdaymornings. I think a lot of people shop here just because she is so friendly and personal.”
“Always super helpful staff. I’m a novice at everything handy and they’re never condescending. The best part is, if they don’t know…. they just say that instead of sending you on a wild goose chase.”
