I was in that store today looking for 2 different types of hooks for the house. I asked an…read moreemployee; A old man with a large gut, and he brought me to two sections of the store. In the second area he lingered a few feet behind me for a long time after I found the area I needed: which I noticed, thought was strange, and I got the sense that he was trying to be intimidating. Then another costumer needed help finding something so he walked a away for less than a minute. Then he returned & continued eyeballing me. Very obvious and intrusive. After I found what I needed I walked to the front, and when I passed him I said; "You watching me like a hawk?" His reply was "yeah". I've been followed around in stores before, and I really don't like being profiled. But he admitted what he was he was doing which is accusing someone of being a thief by de facto. I'm not a thief, and have never stolen from a business. I voiced my protest to the guy at the front of the store. I really don't like leaving reviews that are negative because it affects everyone there. But when there's a employee who acts like that I'm sure the business owner would want to be aware. I'm almost 50, have never stolen from a business, and really don't like being treated like that.

I absolutely love this place . It is like a trip back in time they have Everything you might need…read moreto get through the day and more. Prices are competitive and it is so fun just to walk around and see what you might find. They staff is great and there is Parking and no floor to ceiling merchandise or big forklifts beeping at you as you shop . If your looking for it I bet they have it . I was so surprised to see how many tools and supplies they had for the project I was doing . They also have snacks and fun items that you did not know you needed. This is my new go to store. I am just sorry I did not find it sooner.

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.

Hello, We had very…read morepleasant experience to develop business with these guys. Last year we decided to build an energy efficient house so we needed experienced and qualified consultant to advise which windows we have to choose. Wee contacted MGBS and after a month we already had answers to all our questions and quote with price for windows. They recommended Intus Windows which we had never regrets of. The responses of those guys were quick and informative. Great job, this is how customer service should look like and something we will recommend to all our friends.

We purchased it and brought it home but unfortunately, even after measuring, it was just too large for our space. We held on to it for a week in hopes that we could make it work but we ultimately couldn't. I thought, "there is no way we can return this," but my husband called anyway and Alice was so understanding and graciously gave us a full refund on the item.

Let me start by admitting that, to me, this Lowe's and this Lowe's…read more(https://www.yelp.com/biz/lowes-home-improvement-portland) are nearly the same place - in layout, in availability, in staff, etc.. And, if I go to one, I usually end up going to the other immediately afterward to see if they have what I was looking for if the other didn't, so I think I've done this mash-up to myself. Things I like about the Brighton location: 1. It's always less busy than the other location. 2. The parking lot is less chaotic as a result. 3. When "the mall" location is out of something specific (like the white ceramic allen + roth indoor planter I'd like ALL my flora friends to be in), Brighton usually has it. 4. I don't know if they're actually smaller than "the mall" location, but they've got an impressive selection of outdoor plants (flowers, herbs, veggies) in Spring/Summer. 5. I think the staff here is nicer. Things I like about both locations: 1. Using the outside register. Things I don't like about either locations: 1. They're horrible inside registers (both the self check-out and the ones with people). Things I like about Lowe's in general: I think Lowe's as a corporate brand does a good job at seasonality. Unlike Walmart, the Dollar Tree, and even Target who, for example, have their back-to-school stuff up by early July and have already transitioned completely away from anything summer/patio/gardening, Lowe's doesn't. Some of us don't have our gardens planted by Memorial Day, so I appreciate that I can still get my mint and dill "later" in the season, I guess.
