Ace Hardware Hampton is exactly why local hardware stores still matter. The store is clean, well…read moreorganized, and easy to shop without feeling overwhelmed. If you need help, someone is always nearby and actually knows what they're doing. Big shout out to Michael the cashier... friendly, helpful, funny, and very attentive. His personality alone makes the experience better. Honestly, he has management written all over him and definitely deserves a raise. Great customer service, solid selection, and a stress free shopping experience. If you're in Hampton and need hardware done right, this Ace is a great stop.

I recently bought a chainsaw at this hardware store. I went in on one day, did some research to…read moremake a decision, and came back the second day to pick out the chainsaw. But on day one, while I was looking over the saws and doing my research in the store, at least half a dozen associates came over to check on me and make sure I was doing OK. I've been in many other larger hardware stores and the staff never approaches you, not even one time. But both days at this hardware store, the staff was incredibly helpful. On the second day, when I made the purchase, the associate named Aaron provided tremendous assistance. He was incredibly knowledgeable and did an amazing job walking me through the product features, registration of the saw, and he gave me so many helpful tips. He informed on the aspects of the operation of chainsaws in general that I wasn't even aware of, after more than a decade of owning and using chainsaws. I couldn't see how a hardware store could possibly have a better qualified staff member. It is truly refreshing to see someone so competent and passionate about their work. Stellar service like this is invaluable and very hard to find these days!

My choice is to always buy LOCAL. They were my choice. While they usually didn't have a lot of…read morestock on hand, they usually got what I needed the following week. They were always personable. The owner was usually there dispite being WELL past retirement age. There are people who won't let go from work. Hopefully because they LOVE it. How many of us would like THAT? Kinda like not working when you Love your job. Sad to see them go.

However there is that one guy who always just never stops talking. He just keeps on talking all the time just runs his mouth even when you say thank you and try to move on.

For the MOST part. I went to check out my items with my company card and when there were two black women that were on standby that assisted me. They were short and chatty and one of them was light skin (didn't get the names). One of them made a rude remark about my deep voice and thought it was funny. The other one wanted to play games when I asked them if I could use the job name to bypass the pin on the card. They did solve the problem but insulting me and playing with me in that environment was completely unnecessary and unprofessional. I will not be coming here again.

When customer service was contacted we were told they could give a $100 discount on a on a $1700 order . We were not satisfied with that offer and ask to speak with a manager another supervisor called back ans abruptly said thats all they could do take it or leave it. Sooo after years of being a loyal customer we're going to leave it and cancel our ALL dealings with a store that doesn't have the customers concern as a priority. Mind you its only been 2 weeks and the order is under a warranty. Shame on Homedepot to treat a valued customer in this manner.

Well we really liked the store in Manhattan KS. This one not really. Why you ask; well I'll be…read morehappy to answer. I gave the store two stars because a nice man who works in the paint department showed me the employee who works in plumbing. I approached her and she ignored me and as I asked her if she worked in plumbing she responded with what I thought was "I'm not here." On the inside I figured I just misunderstood her. Wrong. I asked again and said I only had a quick question. She then emphatically said "I'm not here. I'm OFF." Fooled me because I was thinking "uh then why are you here WORKING?" She said again she was off so I set the item causing my aforementioned question on a shelf. She then realized I was leaving and mumbling to myself that I was going to write this missive about the experience. Check. I like to patronize small businesses rather than box stores. But my shopping trip to the box store was no less satisfying than the time spent at Ace today. After all my expectations are that I will need to know what I want at the box store. I probably will not step into the Ace again, and my advice to Ace's management would be to periodically check on your team and consider someone who wants to be service minded.
