I was in the market for a new smoker, needed pvc and salt so off to Ace! Greg, Hannah, Albert and the crew were great as always. I found everything I needed and left with a new smoker. My only problem is spending too much money there! read more

Ruggiero's Ace Hardware - New smoker from Ace! - Hardware Stores Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

I went in for a battery for my key fob and they jumped right into action! I have to say it was an adventure because it seemed like no one really knew how to change it. All I wanted was to buy the batteries and leave because I've changed them before but they insisted. First time they installed them backwards so I walked out to the car and walked back in. Then a second guy got involved and he said he's pretty sure there's a piece of paper that went between the batteries since they stack but that made ZERO sense to me! Anyway, they finally got it all back together and we went out and checked and sure enough the fob was good. Now don't take this all the wrong way because they were ALL super friendly and were all really trying to help! I wasn't mad or anything, they were all fun to watch and I enjoyed my visit! Plus the batteries were priced really good AND they installed them after all, that along with the show made it a good time. In addition they had the puffed nuggets with caramel that I used to get at Rock Springs and that made for a perfect day! I give them 5 stars for this visit, I only wish I would have been able to video them all working on my fob! lol. read more

Ruggiero's Ace Hardware - Hardware Stores Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

The staff was friendly, but this is the dumpiest Ace I've EVER been to. Large cobwebs hanging from the ceiling, disgusting floors, and most of their plants and succulents were half eaten by gnats. I will stick to Lowe's. read more

The young gentleman working this evening offered to help me when I entered the store and as I was leaving with a big bag of dog food. Thank you! read more

Who knew that there was an Ace Hardware tucked in this little corner? Well I'm happy to know that now because it was quite convenient to run in and grab a few essentials. Came across a few friendly faces who were happy to help when I needed it and then allow me to shop in peace when I did not need help. Found just what I needed and the checkout process was fast and friendly. Thumbs up here for sure. read more

What a refreshing experience with knowledgeable and helpful associates Great hardware selection, assistance finding parts and the price/value every bit as good as big box. No lines, helpful and (even) the cashier had product knowledge. Every associate let me know non-verbally, they appreciated my business. Happily honored warranty on craftsman tools that Lowe's wouldn't even look at. I'll drive by Lowe's and HD to do my hardware purchases at Ruggiero's. I went to their store on Cooper and this same service experience is in their DNA. read more

Thank you Diane for your help. Great service and great hardware store every employee helps me every time I need help and one other gal I call her New York due to her Slight accent. She always has a smile , she always ask "how ya doin. She's terrific too! read more

Best hardware store experience ever. I hate going to Home Depot. It makes my teeth itch. Lowe's stocks only two items at a time so I don't go. For this purchase I had to go to Ace anyway. Greg was my guy. My son and I were checking out a Big Green Egg and Greg was on point. I was ready to buy but decided to sleep on it. The next day my wife went with me and I pulled the trigger. By noon Greg had my BGE at my home assembled and ready to go. Try getting that from the box stores. I love their level of service, attention to detail and the military discount didn't hurt. Greg hooked us up with reward points for our purchase so we can buy more stuff later. Lol. Love this place and I will definitely be back. read more

Went online before going into store on 10/21/2024. Googled "Does Ace Hardware do Price Matching?" It said "Yes we do, with a few exceptions like online shopping, etc". So Lowe's was selling the Omni Compost for a regular price of $4.48. Ace had it for $5.99. I printed both online screens and off to Ace I went. When I asked about the price matching I got a a very LOUD "NO, we don't do that anymore". I thought, well at least I gave it a try. Then this other, older woman walked towards the cash register and shouted that they don't do price matching. WOW! I felt like I was getting scorned for asking the question. Most of the people that work there are extremely nice. Not this lady. Figured she was having a bad day but still, I think I will go elsewhere. I am afraid to ask anymore questions. read more

They used to provide a lot of services here, but post COVID they wont even fix your screens here anymore, though i have done that here in the past for ten years. If you need a lightbulb here or some screws then they have got you covered read more

Started a backyard project last weekend and I ended up going to the two big stores HD & L first. I found it hard to get help, then would get home to find I was sold something that was not working. I'm not a pro so it was probably part me. When I got to repairing the 1/2 inch drip line, after buying parts from both big stores, having to search for someone to help me and getting a little attitude, I remembered Ace. The employees were willing to help, were courteous and sold me the parts that easily worked. I couldn't believe how easy it was with the right parts. I had spent hours before, when the parts fro Ace took me about 30 minutes and they worked. If you're not a pro, I highly recommend going to Ace!! read more

Store is clean, organized, and staff is friendly. Definitely recommend visiting this store

A bit hard to find things in the store because it is so packed with so many different items and so many different kinds of items. But, unlike the building supply warehouse stores, this is a true hardware store with many and varied hardware items. Well worth a visit. read more

I purchased an outdoor rocking chair from Ruggiero's Ace Hardware. When it was delivered, it was not a rocking chair. They should have checked to make sure it was the correct item. I called them, and they said they would call me back. They didn't. I called to see when they would bring the correct chair, and they gave me a day. When that day came, I didn't know when they were going to deliver it, so I called again. I really believe, they forgot about it. It's a good thing I called. They finally delivered the chair. It's an ok chair, except the cushion looks like it was washed.They were apologetic about the whole ordeal, but the communication was subpar. I won't be dealing with this store again. read more

This review is in regards to ordering window screens. I like this store but have had 2 disappointments ordering screens. Each time the order was "lost". Took 6 weeks to resolve the first order. My current order is 4 weeks old and found out today the order never went through. Now saying 2-3 more weeks. I can recommend this store for all of your hardware and BBQ needs, but go elsewhere if you need screens made. read more

I have been going to Ace for many years but today made me think differently. I went into purchase paint and the employee at the cashier did ask for assinstance to the paint area but no one arrived after a long period of time. I went to the back area to ask for assistance again and still no one arrived after a long period of time. I am a pretty patient person but I ended up walking out. The place was not busy enough, they could of been making my paint while helping others and also noticed that they would help newer customers as they would come in. All I can say is that I am very disappointed and probably will think twice before going back. read more

I needed to replace a broken patio door handle and first went to both Lowe's and home Depot where not a single person was willing to help me. It was an odd slider handle from a 21 year old door. The associate at Ruggiero's in Chandler named Mark got the exact part I needed and took the time to make sure it was right. Thank you sir! It was refreshing to see customer service isn't extinct. read more

I oh so love this place! Lots of people there to help you and they've always had what I'm looking for. May be slightly more expensive than the big box stores but when you're only talking a few items, not a big deal. Great to support a locally owned business and so much easier to get in and out of than HD. read more

This Ace is great. Not sure where all the negative reviews come from but that has not been my experience. In addition to random hardware store items which this location has well covered, they are a dealer for Weber, Big Green Egg, and my favorite Traeger. During the spring and summer they usually have demonstrations so you can check out their super supply of grills and tasty BBQ. I have bought two Traeger's here now and love them both. Ace assembled them and delivered them to my backyard promptly (and for FREE). If you are looking at a new grill talk to Greg, he is very knowledgable and professional. I also go here for all my sauces, rubs, and pellets, they have a wide variety. Did have an issue once with a key copy but they fixed it at no cost. My wife has purchased several terracotta pots which look great in the backyard. read more

This Ace Hardware store has the most unfriendly service at the register specially the older gal that works there, she is unfriendly, grouchy, not helpful, and doesn't seem to like her job and now none of the cash register employees are wearing masks. I will not be shopping there even if it is the most convenient hardware store for me. read more

My husband and I have been in this store numerous times. We like to support local business. However, the great customer service you experience with employees on the floor is always ruined by the older woman who works as a cashier whose initials are CLW (per the receipt). She is always so rude and unpleasant. Today we had a question about using a reward through the app and her response- in the crabbiest voice and without even looking up from scanning items says- 'I have no idea.' Which, this is either 1) a lie, or 2) you need immediate retraining on an app that your store and company encourages customers to use. Her attitude and demeanor with customers is unacceptable and a real turn off. I'm happy to take my business over to Home Depot if ringing up customers is so unpleasant for you. read more

We walked in to three maskless employees playing catch with what I'm assuming was a softball because of its size and color. One had on shorts that were smaller than my old swim team uniform! They didn't have the screws we were looking for so we left. As we were walking out mr. tiny shorts asked if we had found what we were looking for. We told him, "no". To which he said, "Awesome! Have a great day!" I feel like the employees were all high or overwhelmingly entitled teens who have never worked before. Truly disappointed in the experience. You'd think such a nice plaza would attract business owners who cared about their customers' experiences. I guess that's what I get for thinking. read more

You know why I like Ace Hardware? Because when I go in looking for: -Machine Screws Pan Phillips 4-40 x 1/4....not only do they know what they are, they have them in stock! More than 3! (Lowe's sucks) Because when I go in looking for: --Small plastic parts boxes with dividers....they know what they are and I can buy one without also buying a freaking toolbox that it is inside! (Lowe's sucks) And speaking of Lowe's why do they only stock 3-5 of any particular item? What if I want 7? I need to visit 2 Lowes? read more

The store itself is well stocked and clean and your floor team is knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. However, when checking out there is one cashier who is consistently unpleasant-that's if you're unlucky enough to get her to help. Never a smile, never a 'here you go' and don't dare hope for a thank you or wishes for a good day. She's even rude to other staff members. It's unfortunate that the last impression people leave your store with is this grouch. read more

Love this Ace! We come to this location from Gilbert especially for our Traeger supplies. The owner Greg is a great guy and his staff are always happy and willing to help. See ya again soon. I'm almost out of pellets! read more

Ruggiero's Ace Hardware - Hardware Stores Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

See all

I would first like to say that I have been going to Ace hardware for a LONG time now and never in my life have I been so disappointed. I went to ace hardware because I needed some paint samples. The man there didn't look very happy. He didn't smile and he gave attitude the ENTIRE time. I was in shock. Once he was done staring off into space, he asked me what I needed. I gave him my colors and he slowly went to put them in the computer. He took his sweet time as I stood there patiently. After I got home, I went to my room and started to put the paint samples on. The blue was the completely WRONG color. I WAS SO upset. The color I wanted was a blue grey color. The color I got was teal. I paid $7 for a piece of crap. How dare they treat one of their nicest customers like that! read more

Went in the store and it indicated masks were needed during the Pandemic. The public were all wearing masks but at least 3 of the staff were not. I won't go back there for a long time. read more

I was in the ace hardware by my house and the people there were so nice and helpful. The girl at the paint desk with colored hair was so helpful. I will definitely be coming back here for all my hardware needs. I try to not go to the big box stores I like helps the small businesses read more

I really like this store. It's really convenient. It's always clean. I think that the people that work there are very nice. We buy our dog food at this location. Our brand dog food is so hard to find but it's always in stock here. read more

Your front of store cashiers during the day are the worst. They both have serious attitude issues and negative energy. Are you trying to make customers not come back??? read more

Great customer service. Called for information, was given price and information and when I asked them to keep the item for me at the register they did. I was in and out of the store In One minute. read more

IDK, I've lived across from this Ace for nearly a decade. I have tried repeatedly (20+ times) to like it because its convenient, but the customer service here is beyond awful. The people in the various depts are ok, but the cashiers always seem so miserable- like they hate their lives and their jobs. Everything seems to be an inconvenience to them. "Let me give you my phone number for rewards "- look of disgust. "May I use my coupon?" - look of disgust. Everything seems to be a bother. I use Home Depot quite a bit and never ever have miserable people like these. I think I'm done going there. I'll drive an extra 4 miles to get better service. read more

I was in here with a friend getting a spare key made. Mark an employee in training started off helping us and then had to call for help. Jessie was who came she was awfully rude to us acting like we were dumb. She was EXTREMELY rude to Mark the employee IN TRAINING. She was snappy with him and demanding. He was very kind to me and my friend but Jessie on the other hand was not kind and should NOT be training employees with an attitude like that. It made me very uncomfortable standing there watching her treat him with blatant disrespect he definitely did not deserve to be treated like that. read more

Love this local Ace Hardware store! All the employees are helpful and polite. They are very knowledgeable if you need help and if they don't know they find someone who does know. We much prefer Ace over HD or Lowe's. read more

My go-to for hardware and pool supplies. Jim is the most knowledgeable pool expert I've ever met, more so than anyone at the big chain pool store. read more

Everyone is always so friendly and helpful! Yesterday when I was in the store, a young lady named Emma helped me. I had a return/exchange and coupons for my new purchase . A lady named Tonya was at the next register and was so patient with both of us. She took the time to make sure I was able to use my coupons and was happy to help her young coworker when she had questions. Great job ladies! read more

I really miss shopping here. I used to frequent the store quite a bit, but I got tired of seeing the big pile of Round Up in the center isle. When they quit selling that poison I will return. read more

Very friendly and helpful staff, great place to check and shop local before going to a big box store!

This has been my Ace location of choice for the past 5 years...I am deeply saddened that I will not shop this location again. I placed an online order more than a week ago, for items in stock and to be picked up the next day. I received an update that 2 of the items would have to ship from the warehouse...fine, I'll pick up the rest of my order when it's ready & get the 2 items later. I NEVER received an update from the store so I called in to find the status myself. The manager took my name down and told me he would give me a call when the other items were ready. Again I had to call back now two after my initial call, only to be told no one pulled my items when they were in stock and now I would have to wait for the store to order more than have of my items from the warehouse...with an unknown arrival date?!?! The manager "graciously" cancelled my order, let's see how long it will take for my refund to happen?!?! read more

While checking out we made the mistake of mentioning that we were from Oregon. The manager who was ringing us up considered it his duty to share with us all of his terrible opinions and beliefs about Portland. This was all regurgitated rhetoric off of some conservative news source. It's not your place to give us an earful about the town we're from and a place which you have very little experience or knowledge of. He then took it upon his self to make sure we knew we "had moved to a very conservative place." What does any of this have to do with selling us hardware. I emailed the corporate in store experience contact and the owner. Ace corporate sent an automated response. No reply from the owner. They didn't give a f*%k! Totally inappropriate. Never goin back. CONSERVATIVES ONLY I GUESS! The sheriff Joe Arpaio paraphernalia was the nail in the coffin. Florence deserves better. Home Depot here I come! read more
