He was by far the nicest and most accommodating person. Unfortunately, they didn't have it in stock and weren't able to get what I needed but he did call another store on the island for me to get the product I needed and it wasn't that expensive. If you need anything from a hardware store I would recommend coming here. It is super cute, organized.

The workers were extremely professional and got the job done. They even corrected issues she had from a past contractor's work and didn't take shortcuts. Their work ethic was incredible and the installer was the best. She gives them her highest recommendation!

More importantly during these tough times, their prices have remained the same! They are head and shoulders above the 2 (Giant Corporate hardware companies) and you guys know who I'm talking about! These guys really take pride in providing our community with necessary resources during the worst of times! They have made a "customer for life" in me. They embody the old school "Oakwood" of my youth! Highly recommend! These are the "Good Guys" of home goods and hardware!

They act like they are doing you a favor, are rude and have bad attitudes while they over-charge you for everything. Others I have talked to feel the same way. The best is that they make you wear a mask to come in their store but they don't wear one. I will stop going to them and instead go out of my way to shop somewhere else.

It's honestly no BS here. You'll likely find the essentials for all your building projects. They…read morehave so much inventory and it turns over so quickly that big box retailers like Home Depot and Lowes would have trouble matching their prices. I ordered some doors and they arrived in less than a week. They were FAR cheaper than the prices I saw at Home Depot. For a standard, non-custom order, go here. The biggest benefit to the neighborhood is that they are multilingual (languages spoken here include English, Mandarin, Cantonese, Taishanese, and potentially some other regional Chinese dialects). Sometimes things do get lost in translation, so be careful of that. The thing that I HATE most about this is the location. It's located at a big intersection AND it's right underneath the train. I've only been here during the warmer seasons, so I only know how they operate in the window. During this time, every visit I've made, the doors have been open. The trains run every few minutes forcing you either to repeat yourself or scream your order. Go for the prices, be wary of the service. Express patience because everyone knows they're cheap. They operate under the buy now, pick up now business model. This created a few problems for me and my contractor, who would often pick up the materials at a later date.

Note is that as with most such places, you order with the interior crew and they prep any indoor items while most of the bulky and messier items are in their adjacent bay which can forklift or crew load (theirs and/or yours, don't forget to tip) into your waiting vehicle along their about 200ft of roadway frontage.
