Alex - Salesfloor Employee is very polite, kind, attentive to detail and assisted me in selecting an electric weed wacker and explaining the features to me.

I'm in and out in less than 15 minutes. Even less time if I didn't stop to look at a few more things. The cashiers are efficient and quick. The big stores have no where near the service. In fact I spend most of my time in them just looking for someone to help me, only to find that person knows less than I do. Big Joe's may cost a little more but for their kind of service, I'm willing to pay a little more.

You can spend a thousand dollars in the store easily enough but buy a $5 2x4 that is in the yard and they compromise your privacy and security without informing you or asking your permission. A complete lack of respect and consideration for their customer's privacy and security. I'd rather drive to town then set foot in the Edgewood RAKS again. Protect your privacy and SHOP ELSEWHERE. The Edgewood - East Mountain area continues to suffer with businesses that aren't an asset to the community. They bend us over, take our money, and treat us like we are stupid.

We have been remodeling our deck and making nearly a trip a day into town to go to Lowes. We've…read morelived in Edgewood for 2.5 years and decided to wander in here despite the one negative review. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The supplies they have are comparable to Lowes in cost, and aside from hardware, generally less expensive by a dollar or more. The fuel savings alone is enough to make up for the items that are more expensive than in town. And! The fascia boards that Lowes has been unable to acquire for nearly 6 weeks, Raks was able to get in the same week (with a holiday) for less money (though higher tax and no military discount)! The bank hours aren't great for after work projects though, which is why we hadn't been in there. That, and the unreasonable and absurd review left on here. Businesses have the right to surveil their own property, just like anyone else. It's not an invasion of privacy or security, it's a protection of assets.

The price was a little higher than we wanted to pay, but the quality of the Made in USA products exceeded what we found locally. The store had plenty of help for a Sunday, and the staff knew the regulars. This is a great example of good customer service and a nice selection of all kinds of items.

Some time ago I bought a $200+ Gallagher rodent trap that did not work and reported this to a store clerk. He replied that I was the only one who had made such a claim. I later learned that an Eldorado friend had complained about her non-functioning trap to the same clerk and he told her the same thing. Sometime later, I returned to the store to complain about the trap not working. The clerk admitted that a number of these traps were indeed malfunctioning and was told that they were waiting for parts. I regularly checked in over the weeks and was told each time that they were still waiting for parts. Some time later, I returned to the store, and the clerk took a look to see if he could fix it. After checking in with him over the next few weeks, he finally called to say he had repaired it. However, I soon discovered that the canister part was still leaking. Some time later, I returned to the store and spoke with Steve. who gave me the number to the manufacturer to call and arrange a shipment and exchange. At that time, Steve stated that he takes care of his customers. When I called, the manufacturer rep asked why the store wasn't handling this. I realized that I, a regular customer, was caught in a shipment war between Steve and the manufacturer. Not cool. Some time later, I returned to the store and spoke with the clerk, who took my faulty trap and added it to a box containing other parts and traps behind the counter. He said that they were going to ship it to the manufacturer for exchanges. Finally, the issue with my expensive purchase would be resolved. Not so. Some time later, I returned to the store and noticed that the box was still behind the counter, weeks later. I asked the clerk about it, and he said they were still arguing over who would pay for the shipment. I wrote to Steve last week that it is well past time for him to either replace my purchase with a working trap, reimburse my purchase, or credit me the $200+. I've not heard back.

This place is well stocked and very organized, and the staff extremely nice and helpful! My favorite part had to be the nursery though! When I walked out there butterfly's were flying around! It's a family owned business and that means a lot to me. Everywhere you have these big box stores moving in and putting places like this out of business, so it was so nice to see the staff interact with customers they have known and helped for years. It was a pleasure to visit your store!!
