It's now called ACE Hardware. I loved Delano True Value and was a customer for literally decades but I will not go to Delano ACE again. They've turned into a big box store where the customer is apparently always wrong and suspected of criminal activity or something. I rented a carpet cleaner and it took over 30 minutes for customer service to write up the rental agreement. There was no line it just took so long to write up the paperwork. I was patient. He tried finding a machine that was clean and each machine he grabbed he said was dirty, I said, 'That's okay, I don't mind if it's dirty. My dirt is gonna run through it, too anyway." I let it go, no big deal. (All of machines were there) This was a Saturday morning when I came in to rent. I asked the salesman what time did they open the next day, which was going to be Sunday and he told me 8:00am. I said, "Perfect I will drop it off before church tomorrow." I came in the next morning at 8:00 and they were closed and store sign said they opened at 9:00 am. I didn't think to check the storefront sign the day before since the salesman said they opened at 8:00 am. I didn't think I needed to double check what I was told. Now I had a choice, I either waited there until 9:00 and skipped church or come with the machine right after church. I decided to go to church and come in right afterwards. A lady greeted me and even though I cleaned the inside of the machine she found dirt and hair on the wheels and was going to charge me and extra $40. I was dumbfounded. Never did I expect to stand there while she inspected the machine. True Value never did that. You just dropped it off and they waved at you like you were best friends. Now they inspect the machine like you're a bad customer and the culprit of a crime. She took a cleaner from behind the counter and some paper towels and brought the machine outside and started spraying and wiping the machine while she scolded me from bringing in a dirty machine and her boss was going to be mad at her for helping me avoid the $40 extra charge by cleaning it for me. I happily grabbed the spray and a towel pitched in the rid the carpet cleaner of my dirt and filth (right on the front step of the store while people walked in and out). I told her the salesman couldn't find a clean machine the day before and I took a dirty one because I don't expect it to be pristine. She ignored me because I am a criminal not a customer. I also mentioned that I was told the store opened at 8:00 am and I was there at 8:00 but found out store opened at 9:00 and that's why I am late because I didn't want to miss church. She also ignored me. She kept repeating herself that if her boss saw her helping me, she was going to be in trouble. She was really sticking her neck out for me. I mean it didn't take me long to realize that this poor lady after all she was aiding and abetting a stinking small town crime. I sure hope she got off with a warning. A day or so later, I checked my bank account and she charged me for a 2-day rental. The paperwork she returned to me did not say she was charging me another day. ACE is just another big box rental store. Does not care about the customer. I will be going to Mound True Value instead. Delano True Value would have never done any of that. True Value was not slow, misguiding customer, or eager to catch the customer in wrongdoing. Also I just remembered, a year ago I had to rent a cleaner from the local Delano Rental (True Value had theirs all rented already) and I asked them about returning rental on Sunday and I told them the timing doesn't work because I go to church and they said bring it in after church, we won't charge you another day and guess what, they didn't. I do not recommend renting from Delano ACE. I will rent and purchase elsewhere. read more

I live that we have a local hardware store in town! Yes I might pay a little bit more but I know I'm supporting a local business owner and it's much more convenient then driving 20 minutes to a big box store! They are always friendly and helpful! Grateful to have this in town for sure plus they have all the stuff I need for grilling and yard maintenance along with always being stocked! read more

If I could give this place a rating lower the 1 I would because this place the employees were rude to my boyfriend. He bought an item and didn't use it so he returned it because it was $125 for the tool and he ask for cash back and the people were mean so was the manager. read more

This place is phenomenal. I live in independence, so I love not having to drive far. Steven and the entire staff are so knowledgeable and helpful. When you get items here you also get help and knowledgeable troubleshooting and so much more. They are caring and kind and don't make you feel like an inconvenience. From grounding my horse fence, my basement flooding, to letting my dog Duane come in to say hi during the winters. Love this place but more importantly love the people. read more
