“Best hardware store on the planet. You cannot walk in this place without three people asking if they can help you. They know everything about everything, and bring you right over to where the item you need is located. And they're happy to help, unlike the folks in the home Depot and Lowe's, who run away from customers at all costs. What a pleasure to have this store in our community.”
“Very helpful and speedy service. I was able to order online. A stepping stool and two patio wicker type end tables for living room. Smile .Very sturdy and easy to fit in small places.”
“I needed 4 screws that totaled $0.99. The service I received was a million times that.
Successful businesses treat the $1.00 customers the same as the $1000 customers!
Give them your business!”
“Always a good experience at HFT. In general, they really do have quality tools at ridiculously low prices.I am happy with 95% percent of what I buy from harbor freight. This location always provides great support and customer service, as does the clifton park location.”
“I’ve had two different lawn mowers serviced and repaired here and the service every time has been outstanding. One of my mowers had several other mechanics take a look at it and try to fix, all unsuccessfully. Weisheit repaired it for less than $200 and it’s been running ever since. Chris is kind and honest and has even done work free of charge because he was up front and told me that the mower was leaking oil because of a mistake made on their end. They even picked it up and dropped it back off to me all within a week at the start of summer! It’s hard to find people and businesses to trust, and Weisheit is definitely one of the good ones and their prices are reasonable.”
“I have been going to Bridgeford Hardware for years to get windows and screens repaired. They have the basic hardware supplies for household repairs and general maintenance too. Eddie is the best! Support your local family owned stores, it's great for the neighborhood.”

“Honestly the people here are great. Very knowledgeable and most have had hands on experience with the products they sell. They won’t sell you something and hope it works. They are knowledgeable and will share there honest opinion and have earned my business”
“This E. Greenbush store is AMAZING, with the greatest Customer Service. I walked in, frazzled and desperate and needed help obtaining the correct connecting plug for my generator because of a recent wind storm and our power was out for three days. I showed the photo's of my generator and transfer switch to the gentleman who immediately greeted me at the door (I think your name is Todd) and he helped me obtain the correct 220 male/female plug along with the extension cord that goes with it. THEN, "Nick and Tony" (Owners) took the extra step and secured (attached) the male/female plug to each end of extension cord. They wouldn't accept payment and I'm eternally grateful for this. I know for a FACT that the local big box store nearby would NEVER, EVER provided this kindness and assistance. Thank you to Todd ( I think that is your name) who greeted me at the door and provided the BEST Customer Service and of course thank you to Nick and Tony for helping as well. This is the place to go for all your needs....Nancy F.”
“Hey all, I had to bring in my Ecco lawn mower due to a possible battery issue and the guys here were awesome. Judd, Max and Will. They handled the entire situation with ease and no charge to help be out with a defective battery.
Very thing about it was smooth and friendly! Thank you so much for your excellent customer service!
We will definitely be back again!

“Excellent and fine attention, the best guidance and quality in your products, I found all the accessories to remodel the interior of the house... a world of options, congratulations Home Outlet Latham”
“Best place in the city for home improvement! I had an amazing experience working with Nicole, Sean and denise to do a kitchen from zero all the way to something incredible. A lot of time spent to design they don't rush you to just get you sign and pay and move to the next person, they spent as much time it needs to have the best outcome. Definitely recommended, you will get the best service, price, and quality ? ?.”

“Save yourself the trip to the big box stores. Shop local. You won't be disappointed. Very competitive prices. Knowledgeable and very friendly staff. Corey is the go to guy with Kate at the register they make a great team. Kate is just as Knowledgeable can certainly point you in the right direction. You won't be disappointed. Shop local”
“They were very kind and attentive.
Dan at the front counter was very lovely. Took time to explain to me what I needed to know. Love the patience I was shown.”
“This business is one of a kind. You should see the parts they have . They have the knowledge and service that other suppliers don’t as well as so many choices of equipment to choose from. When I first walked in I couldn’t believe the friendly staff and super clean facility.”
“Fantastic customer service both times I needed parts for ancient equipment. They were able to cross-reference and find drop-in replacement parts and had them in stock.”
“I had placed an online order, my order never delivered I called corporate they called the store that my order was being filled by. I received a call the same day from Joe Krawiec he explained that it was a computer glitch he tried to fix it Joe called me back to keep me updated on what was happening but we had to reorder it, Joe guided me through the process of reordering it and made sure it was correct. The next morning he checked on it called me immediately and said that my order had been shipped and I should receive it on Tuesday, which I did!. Joe made me feel as though I was the only customer he had to deal with for 2 days! He took time to listen to me complain! I felt he understood my frustration. And he followed up with me!!! You don’t get customer service like that anymore!! Like I said he followed up the next day with a phone call!!
Thank You Joe Krawiec!!”

“This hardware store has everything. Everyone working inside the store was very friendly and very helpful. They also help support other local businesses. Stop by and pick out a unique Christmas gift for family and friends.”
“Our local hardware store recommended visiting Security when I came to them with a specific question about diy replacing my shower/bath hardware. William at Security was super helpful and kind! He brainstormed with me (and my nonexistent plumbing skill set) and ultimately set me up to do the job on my own! And he offered my 3-year-old a lollipop while we were there. Very knowledgeable, patient, and kind!”
“I was very happy today to visit my Tractor Supply in Glenmont NY! Great service as a called ahead of time to see if they had a canner in stock. Not only did they have the canner in stock they also held it for me so I could get it on my lunch break. Then to my surprise they price matched Walmarts price on the canner as well! Thank you for great service! I highly recommend they. Go see them for all your summer and all season needs!!! Kudos to you the cashier and manager on today I appreciate you both!”
“I sort of wish there were an alternative that was half as convenient, but, with the options as they are, I am glad this is as close to me as it is. Anytime I'm involved in a project, I can get what I need and get back to work quickly, and usually without spending an outrageous amount of money”
“Lowe's review? Sure.As far as a comparison goes with other Lowe's stores that I have been to in New York and other states, this one is operated at a very high standard. It is sure to have most anything that your home, lawn, property could need and then some. High-price items are locked up, as I was made aware there was some thefts happening during the floyd riots and post-pandemic. All the isles are spic'n'span and lunch hour is the time when some materials are rolled out on carts and restocked on shelves.On a few occasions I have needed some input with the lumber and garden departments and all the staff (old and new) were very helpful and kind - one woman even walked half the store to make sure I got my item!The one sticky point, is the return desk (3 stations) where, without any fail, late in the morning or late in PM; there's always a backed up line. Please get 1 extra person to assist at this crucial desk.Above average Lowe's.5”
“Cara in Latham and Jeff in Albany are why I do business with Herzog's paint. Above and beyond service. I can ALWAYS count on getting my job done. See you soon. ?”
“I was not previously familiar with the Hatchet Hardware stores, and it was not obvious to me that this was (a new) one until I did a search online. There was no obvious sign for that - but plenty of ACE banners - except a letter-sized paper on the front door. The store is quite clean and very well laid out. I was greeted and asked if I needed assistance very shortly after entering the store. The selection of products in the store, ACE and otherwise, satisfies most of my home and garden needs. They're not the only ACE hardware store in my vicinity, and not the closest to me either, but it's great to have this store as another option, especially when I'm shopping in Colonie.”

“They are amazing! The Thor gas range I bought that they wouldn’t fix under warranty… Home Depot didn’t bat an eye, six months later they are refunding me and picking up this hunk of junk. I will be buying a new gas range from Home Depot, just not THOR!!!”
“Last minute rental of the flatbed truck to move a few large items of furniture/fixtures. The Schenectady location didn’t have the truck available for the day so I shot over to Albany. Terrence was awesome, above and beyond for customer service! Mike was also very pleasant upon return.”
“Home Depot on Route 4 is a great first stop to gather everything you need for those projects around the house. We have been going here for years and usually walk out quite pleased. Prices and inventory are always stellar. In terms of project support, some of the staff really know their stuff, others don't, so do your own homework before you go shopping. I believe one of Home Depot's strongest legs is their website, it crushes the other big box stores, so take advantage of it for product details, prices, and availability. If you have a small order, just find out where it is in the store from the website and go grab it. This store also has excellent customer service as well, which is far, far above their competition. It's great to see management really doing their job and keeping this place pleasant to shop in, year after year.”
