First step in, I love it! Tons of people helping customers find what they are looking for. As soon as I walked in someone asked if they could help me with anything, and they quickly made my keys for me. I spent time picking out key covers and carabiners. I'm so glad someone told me about this place. It's much closer than driving to other larger stores and they had plenty of stuff! I also can't say enough good things about every one who works here.

One can't get that attention at a big box store, even if the aisles are wide. That said, there are better stores for some items, but knowing where to shop for what is a customer's responsibility. I really like the convenience, friendly staff and good quality of merchandise at Cooks, and highly recommend them - no reservations at all if you plan your shopping intelligently.

Sad to write this after being a loyal customer to this business. Over looking Walmart across the…read morestreet to give this store my business. Tuesday, 5:15p and the store is closed!! I literally checked the store hours before heading over, a 17 minute ride to go to a closed store. Google search which is fast and reliable. They were dependable and reliable up until now. They are the only establishment under 30 minutes from my home that sells what I needed. Item is reasonably priced even though more expensive than Home Depot. Here again, giving my business to them!! These hardware stores are closing due to these competitors, yet they have no concern for the folks who chose them over the big box stores. Why would you go from convenient hours of 8a-6p for people who work. NOW, they are open weekdays for people who don't work!!! 9-5 known business hours yet they will be open for those who: a. Live local b. Work local c. People who don't work. I do not have the time to wait until Saturday for my need. I can order it in line and get it by Friday! Their website says "give us a call" number says person not available and beeps! So is that your number or is it not? Guessing games not my thing. This is the reason these types of stores are closing.

I think the…read morething that makes this store stand out is, one day I was waiting for some paint to be shaken, and I asked the young lady how she liked working here. She answered without a pause that it was the best job she'd ever had. Nowadays, anybody involved in dealing with the public on a daily basis sort of needs a reason to that enthusiastic. They have a good selection, their prices are fair, and I have rarely walked made it past the front desk without being asked if I needed help. A good old neighborhood hardware store.

My friend and I went into Drillen True Value Hardware at 460 Cottage Road in South Portland, Maine…read more I was in the bolts and screws aisle, not quite finding what I needed. My (very) adult female friend told me she would ask an employee to assist. She went to the counter and asked the young man (with a reddish beard) at the cash register if someone could help us with the screws. The employee called out to another man working there, saying, "This woman needs help with a screw!" Then, laughing, he added in an equally loud voice, "You know what those are, don't you?" The two men laughed, as did the woman who was working the other cash register. Other customers witnessed this exchange. It was an ugly and humiliating display. It was deeply offensive and I'm unsure why a customer (female or male) would be treated that way. There are two things, however, that I am quite sure of. First, she and I, of course, will never enter this hardware store again. Second, we will not be timid about letting our friends and acquaintances in South Portland and neighboring Cape Elizabeth know how Drillen Hardware demeans women.
