“This is the best Airgas customer service around. Jose, Alex and Steve have a great knowledge of all the products and can answer any question. Great location for all your needs!”
“I had a fantastic experience with American Royal Hardware in Montclair, New Jersey. The staff was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely eager to help. I needed several solid brass poles cut down to custom sizes, and they took the time to assist me with precision and care.
What stood out most was their commitment to customer service and their generosity toward the local community. It’s refreshing to find a locally owned hardware store where people still go above and beyond to help their customers.
Thanks again Roy!”
“When shopping at this store you need to know exactly what you want and if it is a tool,will it do the job you want at the right price or seek out a better grade of tools”
“The service was amazing. i had an issue with a piece of equipment and Augie was able to fix it with his drill after a couple of tries. He was friendly and very patient explaining how to fix it. He saved me from sending it in for repairs. Much appreciated. Thank you”
“On both visits to decide on what paint color I would like the older lady that was there was very helpful and knew her stuff and was nice with everyone including me.I decided to get a sample because I couldn't make up my mind what color I wanted. Well the sample helped out and I love the color so I went back a second time and there were two gentlemen there and they were very helpful and friendly.Very good customer service at the paint counter.”

“Visited the store to check out kitchen cabinet options. Mary was EXTREMELY helpful. She was knowledgeable, friendly, showed us different options without pressuring us into any specific brand.
She went above and beyond to give us different ideas. Have been to multiple cabinet stores and by far she was the most helpful.”

“I freaking love Red Star!!! Ryan and Joe are efficient, kind, knowledgeable, and make me feel valued every time I’m in store. There’s always a good vibe there and I feel taken care of. Been going since I was young with my parents and their consistent care got another generation of customers. You guys rock!!”
“When the electronic lock in my wife’s store broke I called Bunchers Hardware asking them to recommend a locksmith . I have been shopping there for 25 + years. The women answering the phone, in a pleasant manner , to said “ we have one here and will have him call you .”. Ten minutes later Frank called me and said he would “be there by days end.” He spoke to my wife ,found out her hours ,and arrived after her last customer was seen. The lock was repaired ,and my wife was able to go home knowing the front door was secure. We cannot than Frank and Bunchers enough for quality and caring service

“There’s just something about walking into a place like this — whether it’s a True Value or an Ace — that instantly takes you back. Not in a dusty, outdated way… but in that warm, familiar way. Like being a kid again, wandering the aisles of a hardware store with your dad or your uncle while they hunted down parts for their latest DIY project.
That’s exactly how this location feels.
It’s amazing what you can still find here. The drawers of random screws and bolts. The “I didn’t even know I needed that” gadgets. (yes we all need a crumb catcher in the image of our farorite 4-legged friend) The tools that feel solid in your hand. It’s the best kind of treasure hunt — practical, nostalgic, and oddly comforting.
Yes, sometimes prices might look a touch higher at first glance — but honestly? Not by much. By the time you order online, pay shipping, and wait for a box wrapped in layers of cardboard, you’re right back at the same cost. And here, you get something Amazon can’t deliver: real help.
The staff here is beyond. Knowledgeable. Patient. Actually interested in solving your problem instead of just pointing you to an aisle. That kind of service is becoming rare.
Places like this are slowly disappearing, and we need to support them while we still can. Skip the extra packaging, save a couple of trees, and walk into your local hardware store.
Especially this one.”
“If you are delivering as a semi driver, there is a warehouse across the street from their store. The dock is off the street down by Mt Prospect Ave. They will help you back in.”
“MZ Homes has relied on this supplier for years. Materials are consistently delivered on schedule and meet the quality standards our projects demand. Their reliability supports our partners at Trim Team, whose precision workmanship depends on stable, well-selected stock. Together, this contributes directly to the refined final finish our clients expect in the homes we build.”
“Giving 5stars for Brandon for brin helpful n friendly service on d checkout even to Chris n John as they all did a good job for positive feedback im giving this store at Forest Ave.Good job guys !”
“Skip shopping at big corporates and go to Bartell! I can’t say enough good things about this store! With a major snowstorm coming, I called asking if they had any salt in their inventory and there was, and the owner saved me the last bag (without me asking). To top it off, the staff graciously helped load it into my car so I could get home safely. This is exactly why it’s so important to shop local—you just don’t get this kind of thoughtful, proactive service anywhere else. Highly recommend!”
“1st time here. Within 3 aisle after walking in was greeted by an employee that asked and then correctly told me where to find the items I wanted. Item was at a very reasonable price. Cashier was very friendly.”
“The best hardware store ( in Livingston Nj) it doesn’t matter what you need . From pots and pans to specialized items they have it. Even have candies popular from the movie theaters in the 50’s. ?”

Doesn’t matter if it’s parts or full systems, he always goes above and beyond to provide the best service to take care of me with anything I need. He’s my go to guy at Johnston.

“My local Ace Hardware store is much more like a mom and pop shop(which I love!)rather than their huge competitors! If they don’t have what I need, they will order it for me. The staff was incredibly helpful with finding the products that I needed along with using one of their 50% off coupons.”
“I had an situation arise while traveling and needed to get to the closest hardware store as soon as possible.

“I'm glad I used Google to find this location. My husband only want to use Benjamin Moore paint and this location has the paint and all the extras that you will need. I parked in the front but there is even more parking spaces in the back. The staff was friendly. The lady that helped me did everything from getting the paint, ringing me up and even brought the two 5 gallons of paint directly to the car and placed them inside ?. She lifted the gallons up effortlessly.
When I got home I thought I could do the same thing.
No!
My neighbors Ring camera probably recorded my struggle. ? I will let the contractor remove the remaining gallon from the car.”
“Harbor Freight is a good place to shop if you're looking for a better price than you might find at Home Depot or Lowe's. Of course it needs to be mentioned when it comes to selecting tools, quality does matter and you would be surprised the quality of tools at Harbor Freight. The thing I would like to mention why you're purchasing a tool, if you're a contractor and you're going to be using that tool daily to make a living Home Depot or Lowe's may offer better quality but if you're an avid handy person Harbor Freight Tools may very well serve you well.”
“MHS never disappoints. They are extremely knowledgeable about everything/problem I have ever brought to them. Rarely do they not have what I need, but the one time they didn't have in stock what I needed, they told me exactly what to buy and had me take a picture of the specs.”
“The gentleman who helped me spent 20 minutes trying to find a solution to replacing a missing screw. In the end he had to cut down a screw and grind it down to make it smooth. After all of that effort he only charged me $2.00. This was the type of service which used to be common at retail stores but now hardly exists anywhere. I’m so glad it still exists at One Stop Hardware. Thank you!”

“I guess a few years ago they changed the formula for their pigments, and last year I came here and bought the paint that a lot of my house was done in, but it didn’t match at all. I didn’t use it, and brought it back almost a year later, along with a sample of my existing paint, and they matched it most excellently without any additional charge. The woman who helped me was extremely nice, and definitely earned my return business. Thanks for your help. It’s a near perfect match.”
“I love this Home Depot. There are always associates who are available to help you and even if it's busy, the line goes by quickly. They usually have everything I'm looking for, and if they don't, they're pretty good at assisting you with alternatives that work just as well.”
