She was super friendly and helpful and it was quick to get samples of those paint options. We had our painter try out the samples and while we were trying to decide between the two, we decided to go one shade deeper in both color options. My husband quickly got the additional paint samples and also got a paint sample for our bathroom in no time. We're extremely happy with our front door now that it is painted and our freshly painted bathroom. So far, the paint has held up well!

But I was met with a completely unnecessary comment when I needed help the other day and it felt crappy enough that I will find somewhere else to copy my keys and get screens and random items moving forward. I had just gotten a skin cancer treatment on my face and I had to drive to run some errands. I realized I needed more protection than I had planned and felt like I was getting too much sun on my face so I stopped at CVS then the hat store looking for a face covering. The man at the gift shop down the street said Ace will probably have them and I was excited because i thought, 'they usually have everything you can think of' and I was hopeful. I popped in the door and the woman who asked what I needed felt the need to Covid shame me for asking for a face mask. I was trying to describe a face shield and she responded with, 'like the one's people were wearing during Covid' and I (was simply excited that that meant she knew what I was taking about) said, 'yes, exactly that. Like sunglasses for your whole face' she proceeds to roll her eyes and tell me that 'Covid is over that's not a thing anymore, you don't need it and really we never even needed masks' I was a little thrown off but was trying to ignore that this just turned into something totally unnecessary. I said, 'I need it for the sun protection' and she looked at me like I was making it up and said well we have regular masks if that's what you need but we haven't had any of that Covid stuff for a long time now' 'I never mentioned Covid, she brought it up and made it very awkward' I was just thrown off and felt embarrassed that we were talking about Covid when I was simply looking for a face shield. How I felt about Covid was none of her business and she certainly didn't need to make me feel like I just jumped back 6 years and was being shamed for wanting a mask. I hope you never have skin cancer and have to deal with it. If someone wants a mask for whatever reason there's no need to bring up Covid, there's a lot of other uses for masks. I just stood there stunned because I was so confused how the conversation got so awkward when I was looking for a face shield for my own health reasons. I would have asked for bandanas or other masks but the way she was looking at me I felt like I just needed to leave because I was in disbelief that this person was trying to make me feel ridiculous because in needed protection for my skin cancer. I'll take this down in a few days because I don't need to damage your business but I feel like someone should know how ridiculous this was. It's probably on video if you have cameras. It was between 1030-1115am on Friday. The woman has worked there for many years. It's fine to have your own opinion on things but don't make someone feel bad for whatever they need. It's a store. You usually have a great selection of shade hats and honestly I'm pretty sure I've seen these face shields with the hats in the recent past. I never asked for Covid masks and if you must know I agree it was a scam but I wore masks because at the time I was living with a family member who had cancer and I didn't want to get them sick with anything wether Covid was real or not. It just felt crappy on top of feeling crappy from the treatment I'd just gotten on my face. I'm sure I looked ridiculous with my big hat and scarf, I already felt ridiculous but protecting my skin is what mattered. Please be more compassionate, if you're a sales person it's none of your business why someone wants an item, I could have found something helpful in there but instead I immediately felt confused and unwelcome in a store I've spent a lot of $ in over the years. You never know what someone is going through. It's just so weird when people you deal with regularly and feel like you're all part of the community can make you feel like an outcast with an eye roll and unnecessary assumptions. Good luck with that kind of customer service!

There was one person working and it was busy and had a decent line with more people coming in, but worth the wait. It was the most expensive sort of paint I've ever had to buy, but I'm so glad they had it. I guess not many places sell it. While I was waiting, I did look around and they had a lot of supplies. Definitely worth a visit if you need something, but again be patient and bring a fan. It was a bit warm in there.

Over the years, we've painted everything from walls and furniture to a massive fireplace, and the quality difference is night and day. Early on, we experimented with cheaper paints, thinking we were saving money. In reality, we weren't. Lower-cost paints were harder to apply, didn't wear well, peeled, weren't truly wipeable, and simply didn't hold up over time. We learned quickly that paying a bit more upfront for Dunne-Edwards means better coverage, better durability, and far better long-term results, which is the real savings. Most recently, we used Dunne-Edwards products to refresh a special piece that's been in our family for 75 years. With their guidance, we transformed it into a true statement piece, even adding gold appliqué for a little extra character. While painting it, I was flooded with memories of my grandfather staining the same piece in his driveway more than 40 years ago, an unexpectedly meaningful moment. Dunne-Edwards continues to be a source of both inspiration and trust for us, whether we're tackling practical projects like walls or something more creative and sentimental. The quality of their products fully matches the price, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone who wants results that last. Thank you, Dunne-Edwards, for consistently delivering excellence--and for being part of projects that matter.
