Thursday we were told a new one would be in by the following Monday and we could swap it out. Monday when we called to see if it was in we were told the new owners were not honoring old warranties.

Michael the manager and Vicky the purchaser pointed fingers at who dropped the ball and there was nothing the owners would do to help us. Horrible customer service. My father while alive spent all his time shopping at this store and this is how they treat long term customers. You lost our business and anyone else that will listen to how you treated our family.

Speaking with a Canadian at a music conference this past May; I asked him what was the highlight of…read morehis first visit to Kansas City. His immediate and enthusiastic response was "I finally got to visit Harry J Epstein!". I was not familiar with the business even though I had lived in the Garment District. He explained that as a woodworking craftsman he bought a lot of his high-end tools on-line and had them shipped to Canada from KC because of the top of the line and rare items that HJE carried. He also told me that they will create a wonderful hand drawn piece of art on the order if you request "box art". He urged me to visit and this week I popped in before heading to work. I'm not a craftsman or even a slight handyman, but my visit was amazing. The quantity and variety is mesmerizing and I only visited the ground floor and basement, the top floors I saved for a return visit. I now just have to determine what my carpenter buddy needs as a Christmas present before returning. The journey into the basement was quite memorable, it felt as if wandering down into 19th century Kansas City's underbelly. I feel quite out of touch that it took a foreigner to get me up to speed with a 90 year old Kansas City retail icon. I so glad that such an old business has kept itself relevant and grown it's sales and reputation internationally in the digital age. May Harry J. Epstein Co prosper into the next century.

I hired Lowe's for hardwood flooring installation in my kitchen and hallway, and unfortunately the…read moreproject turned into a long series of repair visits and unresolved problems. The flooring installation had to be redone after defects occurred, and installers returned multiple times over several months attempting to correct issues. Problems included uneven flooring, visible gaps between planks, damaged trim and quarter round, and damage caused during installation. There is still a loose plank in the kitchen area that shifts when stepped on. I kept detailed records, photos, and videos throughout the process. While Lowe's corporate representatives did communicate with me, I am disappointed that the flooring still does not reflect the level of professional workmanship I expected.

She explained it would be about 3 weeks, but it might be longer depending on the manufacturer. They arrived in three weeks.

I don't visit the hardware section often but I use pretty much everything else they offer. They have a huge seed selection and lots of flowers, bulbs, and even grass seed. Basically anything you need to start or maintain a garden and even your yard. In the spring and summer they have little starter plants if you don't want to mess with seeds. I exclusively buy my garden supplies from them. Coffee. They have a ton of bulk coffee and tea. You can get it ground and even whole. And they have seasonal specials too. They are competitive in price. I've gifted the tea but haven't tried it myself. Spices. So many spices. They have several mixes that I love and use-taco, garlic salt, Greek, even garam Marsala. You can probably find almost anything you need. When soup bases and dip mixes. They also have various candies, nuts, beans, and garden supplies throughout the store. The service has always been friendly and I love the old building it's housed in. Definitely check them out if you're in the City Market area.
