This locally owened hardware store has great customer service,and knowledge of their products. Great stock on hand for most repairs and home owner projects. read more

New to town and I've been in here a total of four times, never have they had the items in stock nor are they helpful. Each time I've gone in Ive felt unwelcome. I'm much rather take my business elsewhere. read more

David and his staff are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. They also put up with me asking too many questions in the most polite and professional manner. Don't go to Ace on 49 Auburn!! read more

Thank you so much Chris and staff. Chris helped me out today with my weed eater. I'm so grateful for his kindness . I went to Home Depot first without anyone offering assistance . I went to Ace hardware locally owned and Chris stepped in and fixed it . read more

New to the area went to Ace Hardware to buy a weed eater. The lady working at the front counter greeted us like we've known her for years. Employees asked us if we needed help and made sure we found everything we needed. This Ace was unique from others that I've visited due to the small town atmosphere feel and I saw items in there that you won't typically find in other Ace Hardwares! Prices were comparable to the big box stores and some items were cheaper there. Great atmosphere will continue to shop there! Check it out! read more

This store gives excellent advice Friendly and knowledge Fantastic local owners who support local businesses read more

Meadow Vista Ace Hardware - Hot Rod & Hardware - Hardware Stores Near Me - Meadow Vista, California

This is a poor excuse for a Hardware Store..... My neighbors and I are always wondering how this place stays in business.......because they certainly do not stock the items that a typical homeowner needs! EVERY time I've come here for a hardware or lumber item.......they do not have the item in stock. DO NOT waste your time or gasoline......just drive to Auburn because this place will not have what you're looking for! read more

What a wonderful Hardware store! It's so handy to have it right in downtown Meadow Vista. They always seem to have what I'm (Paul)looking for, and it saves me a trip to Auburn. I (Pam) find all sorts of things I need there. Today is Labor Day and I'm out of Black Oil Sunflower seeds to feed my wild birds. They're actually open today. They had the seeds and they were on sale. They have the "Bargains of the Month" like the other True Values nationwide. Pam and Paul read more

David, the newer owner, is NOT A MISERABLE PERSON, as one yelp subscriber stated. He is extremely customer oriented and helpful (and I'm not related!!) I try to shop locally as much as possible (instead of giving my business to the "big store" in Auburn. This local store constantly meets my needs and the owner and staff are great there. Keith, who works there, is extremely knowledgeable and has come up with numerous "out of the box" ideas for creative solutions to problems I've shown up with. I cannot recommend them more! read more

They have everything you need! The Best Customer Service! If you have questions about a project they always have the answers and always point you in the right direct! The Best staff and Owners. Service with a smile! read more

Why would anyone need to go anywhere else. This place has everything. The owner is super friendly, he also drives a really cool old school car. It's nice to have good businesses with people who care about running their store well. You can also rent tools there if you didn't know. If you're like me and not very handy with tools they will hook you up with knowledge and show you how to use them. read more

Mark and his crew are knowledgeable, professional and always help you find what you are looking for. Everyone knows this is not a lumber company;but, a local hardware store that stocks most everything you could need from paint to propane. It is nice coming into a store and be greeted with a smile. read more

I don't what the other poster means. I love the Meadow Vista True Value. They aren't a lumber store, drive up or down the hill for that. I've compared prices with the big boxes, and when you figure the gas and time saved True Value wins out. Though they don't carry everything that HD does, they carry more than enough. Mike is a character, but knows his stuff. They've done special orders for us, helped us figure things out, rent tools (cheaper than HD sometimes) and are just plain helpful. We shop local when we can and you should too! Also a nice place to have a chat with your neighbors. read more

Close & Convenient! Owners and staff are very helpful. We are chronic re-modelers and are always popping in for that little necessity, especially when we don't want to go all the way into town to the big box store. Thankful to have it close to home! read more

The new owner and his wife are really nice people! He's personally loaded heavy stuff for me! They 've got a nice variety! It saves me a gallon of gas and lots of time going to this well stocked hardware store. They even ordered me a tub re-finishing kit! .Had a not so nice experience with a guy who is a former employee over loading my propane tank! But the owner has helped me since!! Have a nice selection of Dog and Cat stuff! read more

For a small, local business, this place ROCKS!! They are always so knowledgeable and helpful, don't even need to ask for help, but when I do, they always point me in the right direction or take me there themselves! They may not have everything, but they have a darn good selection, and I figure, if they don't have it, I probably don't really need it, or can wait to get it later. :) One tip, GREAT prices on healthy dog/cat food. Only place I'll buy Nutro for our cat. read more

Outstanding little store! It's amazing how a little hardware store can stock so many things. They are very friendly and knowledgeable. I enjoy shopping here. read more

The top reason for the 5 star rating is the knowledgeable staff - I have saved money and time based upon the staff and the owner, Mark's advice for a "handyman" project I was doing. Not only are they convenient and maintain a reasonable supply of the things most people need i.e. sprinkler parts, plumbing, electrical and paint but prices are very competitive. Thank you read more

This local hardware store is a good place for most of the things I need to get at a hardware store. Only once in twenty years did I not find what I wanted. The prices are fair considering they are local and must make a living too. They are open early which I appreciate. The staff is friendly and always know more than I do about what I'm looking for. read more

We moved to Meadow Vista about a month ago and the hardware store was one of our first stops. They had everything we were looking for - we even picked up a fishing pole and dog nail clippers. Every small town needs a hardware store. Perhaps things have changed since 2008, but it doesn't appear this store is trying to compete with the bigger stores. Their niche is having the essentials so you can pick up one item, say weed eater line, without driving down the hill. read more

I love this store! Everyone is always extremely helpful and friendly. I can always find whatever I need. The staff are well informed and have helped me with a number of projects. Mark and Shelly are great, I would not go anywhere else! read more

We were so happy that Mark took the extra time to find exactly the right light fixture for our new kitchen. Thank you so much!

The new owner is either a miserable person (man...wife is nice) or not making any money and that's making him mad. He never says hello and always looks grumpy. The nice guy working there is very pleasant but the NEW OWNER is terribly unfriendly. This is a small community that tries to support our businesses but I can't stand going in here anymore. read more

You can't ask for more from a local store like this. Localy owned, broad selection, good location. For problem-solving advice or general information about the town, the staff is pleasant and knowledgeable . . . just ask for help. read more

Fine for a local Hardware store. Lumber selection is not awesome, but rarely do I not find what I need...and the prices are just fine.

I have found the True Value Hardware to be outstanding. Owner and staff are friendly and very helpful. Whenever I need something I go to them first. They are knowledgeable and spend extra time sharing ideas for what I may be doing. read more

This store had quality products and very friendly service. I received much more help & feedback than I would have at a larger store!

This is a wonderful store, it is small but they have an amazing variety of goods. Every time I go in there, (and all my neighbors and friends for that matter), they have what I need and can help me find it quickly, as well as answer any questions I might have. They are also always very friendly and helpful, providing the type of service that is very rare these days. read more

matt has his experience but i disagree hardware in the us in general is abysmal, but this is by no means the worst. pretty decent for a spot like meadow vista, and real nice people times we're going somewhere else it isn't to auburn but to hills flat's store in colfax read more
