They have a "repair bar" where you can bring your power tools or mower, etc... and they will diagnose it on the spot. Thomas was very helpful in getting my lawnmower issues resolved without me even bringing it in. I just had photos and described the issue. Tiffany helped me find a replacement part for my auger and now it works again. These folks know their stuff! Before going to Lowe's or Home Depot, try out your local Ace Hardware first! They don't have everything the big box stores may have but they have the home town feel and can always order it. The prices aren't outrageous either. Join the rewards program and get a $10 off purchase coupon on their app.

Buyer Beware: Not only are the prices higher than most places in the area they use a scale that…read moreweighs items heavier than they are. Yesterday was my first time there. I was excited to see they had Georgia Wild shrimp in 1lb, 2lbs, ad 5lbs bags. I got a 2lb bag. When I got home, the bag looked light, so I weighed it on my food scale and postal scale, and both showed 1.15 lbs. Thinking that I was given a 1lb bag by mistake, I went back to the store to let them know. The lady told me that my scale was faulty and needed to be recalibrated. I informed her I weighed it on TWO different scales. Then showed her a photo of the shrimp on my scale at 1.15lbs . She then put them back on her scale at the register and showed me 1.96 lbs (which still isn't 2). The gentleman said to give me a few more to get it to 2 lbs. She looked me in the eye and said, "Honey, a lb of shrimp is 21 shrimp. I guarantee it's 40, and you have 2 lbs. Recalibrate your scales." Some guy in the background yelled out, "Use tare." They never tried to test or "recalibrate" their scale. Unfortunately life has taught me that arguing with scammers is moot and I already wasted too much time with these people so I just left feeling salty and cheated. However, on the way home I figured I must have been overcharged on the other produce since that's the scale they used for everything. When I got home, I weighed all the produce and saw that NOTHING was equal to weight it said on my receipt. As for my scales and weighing know-how, I run an online business and use the postage scale daily. My numbers always match the numbers at UPS and USPS so I know my scales are right. I also recalibrated them and got the same thing. However I am a science based professional so to test I weighed a 1lb bag lentils from my pantry and jar honey I bought from them both items were correct. I've attached photos of all of this. This experience was so disappointing and I will never return.

I am not sure what the bad reviews are all about. This place is great. What you need to remember if…read moreyou are coming in off season is that "it is off season." I have never had a problem with anything purchased here, and frankly, I would rather pay a local farmer for produce and eggs whenever I can. I much prefer this rather than the trucked-in stuff at large chain markets. Large chain markets have their place, but small community stores like this build community spirit and help our local farmers.

Customer Service for outweighs the product, but that shouldn't diminish what you're getting because these are awesome pieces of reclaimed wood that are difficult to find but they have a ton of it. It's a must see if you're considering a new mantle or reclaimed wood for other projects.

This is hands down my favorite home store. I could (and do) spend hours in this store because there…read moreis so much to look through and the items are all unique, either handmade or vintage. It's one of those stores where you can walk away with a neat or charming piece of furniture, wall decor or gift and you never know what you'll find. There's something so satisfying about this kind of shopping. I often come here without any specific piece or need in mind, but I always walk out with something that is perfect for my home ... The staff is so friendly and you can tell they love working there and are proud of their artists and vendors. Since there are no shopping carts/baskets, they can hold your items for you at the front when you're ready to check out. I highly recommend signing up for their newsletter so you can keep up with their sidewalk sale dates or other fun events. I came unknowingly on a Valentine's week event and sipped on a free mimosa as I shopped - how perfect is that?!!
