It's a…read moresmall space but they pack a ton in -- I've found drain covers, toothpicks, doggy bags, etc. It's wild. They have a paint selection as well which is crazy -- they are very efficient with the layout. This store stands out over other shops in the area for two reasons: the staff are super helpful, and the items are priced incredibly fairly. The staff is always eager to help and I have never had a negative experience. I get items here for half or less of what they'd cost at other home stores on the street. I would definitely recommend this location to anybody in JP.

Don't blame a Miami girl for wanting to have some sledding fun! I learned earlier today that this…read moresleds are cheap and sold at hardware stores so I ran to Hardware City in my neighborhood. I was welcomed into the stores and began conversation with the two employees at the front. They helped me pick a sled and went to go get the round ones for the back so that I could see all the available options. It was a very pleasant experience and I would totally come back here again!

This place is so rude. I've called a few times to see if they have things before I go, and they…read morereally don't want to answer questions over the phone. Even things such as "do you sell boxes" are met with a huff and a sigh. I asked what the largest one they had was, and I hear the phone slam down.... did you hang up? Did you die? They return and sputter out the size and I say "oh great, thank you," and then then they just disconnect the call. Cue the "confused girl in backseat of car" meme. Especially after Pandemic.... aren't you happy to be still up and running and selling things and running a business, or nah?

As neighborhood hardware stores go, this place is the genuine article. They have a wide range of fasteners (sold by the piece, not in poly-bags!), plumbing and electrical items appropriate to the kinds of houses found in the neighborhood, lawn and garden supplies, cleaning supplies, paint and -- most of all -- a very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. (Ooops, I almost forgot to mention a handsome and somewhat aloof Maine coon cat named "Hershey" who protects the lawn and bird seed from mice and provides the store with senior management.) I've been involved in construction and renovation work for many years, and this kind of hardware store is getting difficult to find. ( I was working with a carpenter installing a huge Andersen bay window which is supported by internal wire cables. Atlas True Value had large turnbuckles, 10" through bolts and wire rope clamps all in stock. ) As might be expected, they're a little bit more expensive than the big-box Lowes and Home Depot, but I frequently find they're more economical because I can get first-quality items in the quantity I need and I don't have to spend the time and gas money to go miles when I need something. My only complaint is that they shorten their business hours during the summer months and close a little earlier on Sundays.

I bought the item, and had asked the young (new) associate to kindly show me how to use it / set it up. He was in the process of doing so, when the owner gruffly took it out of his hands and said 'we don't do that'.. I asked the owner to kindly show me how it works, and he refused. He was a) totally unhelpful and b) very rude to both me, and the poor associate who has unfortunately chosen to work in this terrible work environment. I came out of the store shaken and feeling like i would never return to this store if it was the last hardware store on the planet.
