I probably would have broken something like a finger or my wrist. We came in early to purchase some items for the Laguna Lathe that I thought I needed and in doing so we met Nancy who very graciously took us in and started early. We were the only members in attendance so it felt like a private lesson session. Nancy went over all the safety items and explained what each part of the lathe is called and what it does. Nancy talked to us as a peer and not as a lowly beginner, which was very helpful and really made the session enjoyable. I was very nervous at first but Nancy gave us encouragement and pointed out what we were doing correctly and gently explained what could be improved. We wound up making mallets instead off the ball that was pictured in the class description. That was a welcome surprise. Overall we learned a great deal and now have the confidence to continue making turned objects. My next project will be something not sure yet. But I know it will 'TURN" out great thanks to Nancy's help and training.

They stand head and shoulders above the big competitors like home depot and lowes, especially when it comes to customer service and satisfaction! While prices may not be lower, they are fairly comparable and the quality is at least as good as the Goliath hardware stores. I appreciate Ace and will continue to visit them for years to come, I'm sure!

Ian got me the metric bolt with the proper length and they worked great. Ian was friendly and so helpful. The bolts were very inexpensive but the customer service was great, these were critical for my boat. Thank u Ian.

The prices are abit higher then Home Depot but you pay for the convienence and the personalized service.

UPDATE: Welp... three and a half years after the opening of…read moreEmigh Ace Hardware things are even more incredible. Seems like a strange word, incredible, for a hardware store? This Emigh has become an El Dorado Hill's favorite. Hands down. It is definitely the community store for everyone. The customer service EXCEEDS (yes in caps) any I have received anywhere. You walk in and you, the paying customer, are greeted and asked if you need help. I am still amazed by that. The many times I have come to Emighs for very specific needs 99 percent ends with just the right gadget, advice or information I needed. I would not stand a chance at the big box stores (hello... anyone working here:)) The value of having a store of this quality so close by is priceless. Yes, you may pay a little more here but time is money in my book. A car phone holder? Yes! They had it. And the employee who led me directly to the small cache of choices even installed it in my car!!! Big thank you shout out for that. Now you know why "incredible " is the perfect adjective for describing EDH Emigh. It is starting to look a lot like Christmas!!! Wow! Last night I walked in the front door to the largest display of Christmas inventory I have yet to see. I had to catch my breath. I immediately texted the GF and she replied back, oh yes, she had already been there a week ago and purchased some very cool holiday items. She is always in the know. You have to see it to believe it. There is definitely no need to go to Pottery World:). Thank you to whomever owns this store. It makes us all feel very lucky to have you. The takeaway... you do not have to live in El Dorado Hills to shop here. So come on down. P.S. Select Apple Hill pies in the refrigerated bin! I kid you not.

Kira patiently helped her download the app, get everything set up again, and even found a $5 coupon that my mom was able to use toward the purchase of her screens. It's rare to find this level of friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring customer service. The entire experience was phenomenal from start to finish. Thank you, Kira,and the whole Ace Hardware team! We'll definitely be back and highly recommend this store.

The store always has what I need for my various DIY projects and let's talk about the power tools and hand tools. Such an awesome selection. I could go broke in the power tools and Craftsman section. Today, I came to the store to return something that was shipped to my house by Home Depot. There were issues with the items and Home Depot support could not help me. They told me that I had to go to the store myself. Well, as I was at the return desk, Bryon came by and asked me about the items when I told him what the issue was, he was genuine in his concern for my poor customer service experience. After hearing what happened, he took ownership of the situation and ensured that it was a smooth transaction. He also made sure to take care of me as a customer because he told me that he didn't want me to have a poor experience. What Bryon did for me was above and beyond and I can tell you that if you have any problems, look for Bryon and he can definitely help. I hope that the store manager and management team realizes what an awesome employee they have in Bryon and it is because of employees like him, that I continually come back to the store and buy from here. Bryon and team are second-to-none. Well done!
