What Goodys has are actual people working there to help you get what you need and answer questions. And check you out - I hate self checkout. They will even help take things to your car.

I live in Virginia and my mom lives in Hamden and my brother and I wanted to get her a new grill because her grill was falling apart and not working properly. My brother had cooked on the grill this summer and it took forever to cook the chicken. I call the hardware store and worked with Frank, who was awesome and understood my request for the grill to be assembled and delivered. Frank delivered the grill to my mother as part of an early Xmas gift and she was very excited to finally have a new grill. I would highly recommend Springhill Hardware over the big box hardware stores. It was a great feeling to support a local resident and business that has been there since I was growing up in Hamden in the 70s.

Today, the Saturday before Christmas, a man with longer brown hair, driving the white pickup truck, cut in front of me at a very busy gas station in Fairfield. I pulled alongside where he had just cut me off, and we had been waiting for 4+ minutes, rolled down my window said, "Sir, we were waiting and you just cut in line to the pump." He said, "I waited, too." ... which wasn't true; I had watched him just pull in. I said, "C'mon, no you didn't. I watched you pull in." At that point he shouted, "Oh, shut up you b***h," and flipped his middle finger at me and my 2 year old child in my car. Who then began crying and covering his face. This was so aggressive, unnecessary, and I want everyone reading this to know that *THIS* is who works at Eastern Builders. Please consider this review before hiring these people.

We had visited both the older location and then newer location now directly across the street. The prices are...well..pricy, but that's because you are paying for quality. Actual quality, not Home Depot quality. I'm by no means bashing Home Depot, they are great for tons of things. As we were at Bender, we were even encourage to google Home Depot prices in comparison to Bender's and obviously Bender had cost more, but we were taught what aspects were different. Like prior to our Bender experience, I had no clue that specific items are "made for Home Depot" and are not the same exact items available for purchase elsewhere. The same goes for Lowes. Alright, now that I've gone off rambling about non-specifically related nonsense... All in all I'd totally recommend Bender if you want to do your home right.

It was a simple mistake and should have been easily accommodating with their Reception and or Sales team. Instead they turned me away at the door and told me to drive to New Haven.

For both a new bathroom and a new kitchen remodel. Thanks for the deplorable customer care Benders! I don't recommend this place to anyone!! Stay away and choose another business that can appreciate your time, effort and hard earned dollars.
