Also I didn't realize they have services on their website and referrals to other home businesses that can help if they can't. Thanks Guse! Will save all my hardware needs for you!

I was so disappointed when the UPS slip on my door stated that my package was delivered here (it's…read morea UPS Access Point). I like to shop local, but I had already resolved to stop shopping here because of poor customer service on multiple occasions. I tracked the package on the UPS website and saw that it was delivered the previous day, and I called to double-check that it was actually there before stopping by. The guy who answered the phone couldn't have been less interested in helping me. It was evident right away that he felt like checking for the package was a huge inconvenience. He left the phone to go search for it WHILE I WAS STILL TALKING, describing what it should look like (excuse me for trying to be helpful), and asking if another undelivered package also happened to be there. He came back to the phone and said he didn't find anything. I walked over shortly afterward and explained to the same guy that the UPS tracker showed that one package was delivered there the day before. Long story short, he found it and explained that he didn't see it initially because he was looking for the other one I described, and he grumbled on and on about how this store "isn't a UPS." Try ACTUALLY LISTENING to your customers when they're speaking to you, and you won't miss key details. And a business currently has to apply to become a UPS Access Point, so you can save all that grumbling for your manager. I didn't want to come here to pick-up my packages in the first place because of EXACTLY THIS kind of shitty customer service that seems to be the norm here. Yes, it requires additional time and effort, but one of the supposed benefits of being an Access Point is its potential to increase foot traffic (and ultimately, sales)--but I will go out of my way to shop elsewhere because I'm beyond tired of the misogyny and condescension.

The Home Depot, Richfield, Minnesota…read more CHEATED BY HOME DEPOT: After my (very successful) back-fusion-surgery, I have limited bending down. So we ordered a GE bottom freezer fridge with ice maker from Home Depot. The fresh food shelves are at eye level. Very nice. But no ice maker. The fridge was delivered with the ice maker in a box. The Home Depot installation team did NOT install the ice maker. I called Home Depot many times, hours on the phone. "Can you send someone to install the ice maker?" No. "Can you recommend someone to install the ice maker?" No. "Can I hire The Home Depot to install the ice maker?" No. So I contacted local Nicollet Appliance. They are always honest and reliable. The person from Nicollet Appliance came out, looked things over, checked his phone. "They sold you the wrong ice maker!" "No you can't order the correct ice maker. GE does not make an ice maker for this refrigerator!" No charge. Nicollet Appliance is always honest. Not Home Depot! BTW, our new GE fridge from Home Depot is noisy. Day and night. I cannot set the correct temperature in the fresh food compartment and the freezer at the same time. One is always off correct temperature. The crisper drawers are weird. They have an indent in the plastic walls cutting their capacity in half. Just wasted space for no reason. Weird.

Fantastic hardware store!…read more Mark has probably saved our family thousands of dollars over the years ($1,300 in plumbing quotes alone) with his advice to solve problems backed by knowhow and knowledge of the problems his products help solve! This month the shower faucet was leaking. $3.99 kit of washers combined with Mark telling me which ones to try first. In 30 minutes, the leaking was fixed. He has done this multiple times. I literally search the internet for how tos and Amazon for products to fix a problem, then look at Mark's site online to see what they have in stock and buy it Settergren's of Linden Hills instead. When I don't know I ask... and he doesn't charge me for the advice... Mark is also great with referring service providers. I have a beloved ~30-year-old Toro lawnmower that was taking 12+ pulls to start. I thought I was going to have to replace it for $500. Mark referred me to Glen Rud, a fantastic, honest, and reasonable small engine repair expert in located in Richfield. Glen fixed the problem and I had it back in 1.5 days. It just needed an adjustment to the choke... Fantastic hardware store!
