Waited almost two months for a new carburetor that they replace and at the end they says it didn't needed to change. Sat there for almost two months and their excuse was it's not a priority anymore since it turned into spring. Thats after they already took my money. N then I'm not a priority anymore. They didn't give me my starter cord back waited two weeks after letting them know without a single call on what happened to it. Finally went to the store and told them that . N got a call from the mechanic saying. I'm no longer a priority which set me off. N went off. Owner got on the phone n made excuses for his employees n basically got trespassed over the phone . I was told to pick my cord but I'm not allowed in the store. Went off again n owner told me to shove my cord up my ass. So at the end of the day. Never support these types of businesses .

When I bought lumber from them for a project, they went above and beyond to help me get everything I needed... they even cut the lumber to the size I needed (for an insanely low cost, too). Their paint prices are comparable to anything you'll find at a big box hardware store. Some of their tools and other hardware might be a bit pricier, but it's a small town and you'll know you're getting what you're looking for. Next project you have, check these guys out.

(Don't let the name on the building confuse you, they are now affiliated with True Value but it is still locally owned and operated.) I've been here several times for pieces and parts for various projects, and they have had my parts on hand. They are conveniently located off the 169/92. They have ample parking with easy access. Their staff has been very helpful. On a recent visit, we were in for some items that we ran short of, and, of course they had enough for us to finish. BUT, more importantly, we had an unusual design that we wanted to implement. I wasn't too sure if the right pieces and parts existed to implement our design. Surprisingly their staff got the visual quickly and was helpful in thinking outside of the box for searching for a solution. This rarely happens in the big box stores! It was very refreshing to talk with a staff that actually has worked on projects. We'll be back!

Once I brought an empty tank for my grill down to get refilled. I stopped in the store first to pick up a couple of things and pay for the tank, but a worker had already spotted the tank in the back of my truck and filled it up for me before I even asked - now, that's service! They have a nice lumber yard and a small repair shop for tools. The greenhouse always has a nice supply of flowers and veggies and trees in the spring and summer seasons. There is also a plentiful supply of items that can be rented - from chairs/tents to tillers and other machinery.

I will NOT go back. I put my good faith that they would have my stain ready for the project i am starting tomorrow and not only had they not begun to match what I needed they didn't even call me. Instead of helping me figure it out i was blankly stared at. So I left and went to Menards where I was treated much better by a guy who took the time to listen to my need and then help me figure it out. Ames Iowa Sherwin Williams has lost me for good.
