“I’ve used this local-owned business Mix Hardware since I bought my house up here. They are always so helpful. If you show them a picture of what you are doing they will point you in the right direction. They just did me a solid and I left thinking this is just the kind of business that compliments any community. Very nice business ran by very nice people! 😍”
“Everything from baked goods to pizza & hand-dipped ice cream. Eat in or take out. Hot coffee, cold beer, and a wall full of jigsaw puzzles. Fishing tackle & bait, munchies and motor oil; in short, everything you'd expect from a real general store.”
“This was the authorized dealer from which I purchased a shed. The shed was built by The Amish in Indiana and is a great product. It was delivered fully assembled and free of charge. I have purchased other items from this hardware store. Their customer service is wonderful. They treat me, an elderly black woman, with respect and patience. Which is smart because I am a paying customer. I plan to purchase another small building through this store this spring, 2024.”
“Great friendly place to shop for all your window needs and much more. Such as lumber, they've got everything no matter how you cut it or measure it they have it! My first impression was impressed by the courteous Miss and the knowledge and the eagerness to help the customer.”
“Isaac provided excellent customer service. Helped me with the items I needed, knowledgeable and caring. 5 STARS to him and with living in the area he validated convenience. Thank you!”
“Any time that we need electrical work done, we call J&L. Brandon and Dave were here today to install a new light in our foyer. They did a great job on the installation and were very professional and courteous! Mike and Greg have always been responsive and helpful in scheduling and clearly explaining what is needed. I would highly recommend J&L Electric!”
“My previous go to small engine repair shop closed and I had no luck in other shops around Battle Creek, I kept having to return with the same issues. A friend told me about this store having a great mechanic, needless to say he was right! I expected weeks out and feared poor performance. The mechanic did very great work and had no problem helping explain how to maintain my other outdoor equipment. I brought in a second piece of equipment and they told me possibly two weeks, he called two days later with it fully repaired and to my surprise it ran better than it ever had. This is now my go to small engine repair store and mechanic! Can't recall his name, but I'll be sure to remember it next time I break something. If you have small engine issues, I highly recommend stopping here! Thanks again!”
“We found All Weather Seal of West Michigan at this store. And the installers were great, they worked incredibly well with our dogs. They were super efficient and left our bathroom cleaner than when they got here.”
“I came in with my Ryobi chainsaw needing to be repaired; was told it could take a week, their team got it done in less than an hour! Couldn’t have asked for better 5 star service.”
“Wonderful place.. Wonderful service.. my tractor mower is getting older and tempermental.. took it to other places over the years but this place brought it back to life.. runs almost new.. and they washed it, cleaned it.. starts right up-no problem.. and I don't have to invest in a new tractor mower this year.. Thanx Struble!!!!”
“Clean and well organized with reasonable priced tools. They have several different oil filter wrenches to choose from. They do not have a lot of hardware, mostly just tools. Not quite a one-stop shop but the prices and the in & out convenience can't be beat.”
“We bought our artificial Christmas tree here this year and the young man in the outdoor department was super helpful and ensured we had a smooth purchase process that was very informative. I would definitely shop this location again.”
“We are thinking of moving. Needed to go to Lowes for boxes and supplies. Just wanted to say that the young gentleman named Jim helped me check out. I had lots of boxes and other stuff. He took it all to my truck and put it in the truck for me. Jim is an outstanding Lowe's employee and I thank him!”
“I was Shopping And A Young Store Employee By The 1st Name Of Jas Was Incredibly Helpful And Very Carring. This Young Lady Went Above And Beyond Any Customer Service Worker I've Ever Experienced In My Lifetime. I really Urge .management To Closely Look At Her Desire To Reach The Stars With The Meanards Family. I definitely Will Be Returning To The Location Many Times In The Very Near Future. Way To Go Jas.”
Lowe's is giving its loyalty program a makeover to better serve small and mid-sized professional contractors. The home improvement retailer has changed its MVPs Pro Rewards & Partnership Program into the new MyLowe's Pro Rewards. The updated program aims to make life easier for professionals while offering more benefits from their first purchase.
Ace Hardware is reimagining itself with a new store concept. The home improvement retailer plans to invest over $1 billion in the next five years to roll out "Elevate Ace" across new and existing locations. The revamped stores will feature brand showrooms, expanded product lines, and enhanced customer service. Some locations will even boast outdoor spaces with live plant displays. Ace gave retailers a sneak peek at the concept during its recent Chicago convention. While a few stores will debut the new look later this year, the full rollout begins in January.
Ace Hardware is hammering out an impressive growth story. The retailer-owned cooperative is celebrating its 100th anniversary with a bang, reaching 5,000 U.S. stores and planning to open 200 new locations in 2024. The company hit a milestone when it opened its 100th new store this year in Henderson, Nevada. Another newcomer, Fixit Ace Hardware in Roswell, Georgia, became the 5,000th domestic Ace store.
In the latest move of its growth plan, leading paint maker Dunn-Edwards just opened 17 new retail locations throughout Northern California. This expansion of physical stores boosts the company's footprint in the region by over 50%.
The expansion caps an exciting time for the nearly 100-year-old company. With its 100th anniversary in 2025, Dunn-Edwards is strengthening its market position through planned growth focused on better serving pros, homeowners and employees.
