“The staff are very good. Products and prices are good. My personal experience with the tools are fair. The electric tools have failed after a few years. The sockets and wrenches have lasted. I buy here.”
“I would love to give a very huge shout out to this fabulous company and their three employees who just helped me out. I literally owe them my life. Peoples gas company put a new gas meter in outside and shut off power to my stove, furnace and hot water tank. I went without heat or hot water for three days bc they red flagged everything. I am a senior citizen (67 years old) and having health problems and was freezing all this time. I was at my wits end bc I couldn't get anyone to help me. I needed a draft hood for the hot water tank and Meyers was the only one who had it. First time I was ever in their place and was treated with respect. Very friendly. They hooked me up and were definitely guardian angels along with their good friend Bill Ulderich who put on the draft hood and turned on the appliances. If u ever need anything, they are the company to go to. I will remember everything they've done for me forever... They really went above and beyond and I am very grateful. Thank u so much for ur kindness and empathy. I appreciate ur help more than u will ever know”
“The manager Brenda at the Johnstown Store went above and beyond what she had to do to return an item for me and have a replacement there when I arrived back. The store associate, Jake was super also. A great big thanks to the both of them!”
“Very nice well stocked hardware store. I was confused about finding it until I realized that it's inside Giant Eagle supermarket. They share same building so don't do like me and drive ar”
“A good general selection of many things and many seasonal decorations. Much more expensive on weather heating and supplies. I bought a blue flame propane heater at Rural King that was one hundred dollars less expensive, same heater, Mr.Heater.”
“Couldn't find the product they had online, and also had a hard time finding an employee that would help instead of walking away. But the employee named Lisa came right up to me and asked if was finding everything okay. I explained to her that I couldn't find the product the website said they had and showed it to her. She looked it up for me and went personally to find it and bring it to me. She was amazing and I will definitely be back thanks to her kindness and over the top assistance. She was awesome.”
“Big and organized. Always helpful service. Always has what I need. Plenty of parking. Convenient to the mall and all of those restaurants, just off of rout 219. I like to order ahead and just walk in and pick things up.”
