Great little local hardware store. Recently acquired by local tool rental shop Gerken, they've hired a new store manager, who comes from Dobbels Hardware in Stanley. Stan knows the hardware business inside and out. Be sure to say hello to Harley the golden retriever as well. read more

Seemed like a decent space... I came in this morning with my boss for some hardware for a job we were doing in town. had to use the bathroom and an employee was using it while about 4 others were waiting, which is fine... until I noticed 4-5 other employees "Looking around" the same area I was. all 4-5 asked me, no one else, not my boss, not the other guys waiting for the bathroom, Me, a Lightly tan skined Italian thinking Im stealing. When we got ready to go I looked around and each employee was at the end of different Rows staring at me, not My boss, me. Very sketchy place. Very expensive as well. No thank youuuuuu lol read more

Going into the store this evening, i was looking for some bolts. The owner greeted my helper, yelling at him over a .22 incident with a 13 year employee at the store. I had no idea what was going on. The owner proceeded to follow me out to my vehicle yelling about whatever happened. I will never do business with this unprofessional person, again. I do wonder how and why we have a 13 year old running a store, but after what I witnessed, good luck sir. I found my bolts at the Family Center! read more

This is a really cool honest old time hardware store. Tons of stuff everywhere and sales help that are very courteous and knowledgeable. In this day & age that is unheard of. They seem to always have the odd & hard to find stuff. Fun destination if for no other reason than just to poke around - you never know what you might find. Every time I go there it's like a trip to Mayberry, really cool small town atmosphere. (I keep waiting for Aunt Bea to show up with an apple pie or something) It's actually only a few miles closer for me to go to the big box stores in Olathe, but why go there? The big stores offer no service, little knowledge, could care less where you shop and are too busy to deal with you anyway. Help keep small businesses alive in America by supporting the little guys. read more
