I have the clerk my paint chip and rather than using a spectrometer, he matched it by holding it up to a chart. Rung me up, and it was $55 for a gallon!!!

I was excited to find a local store that carried Benjamin Moore Paints. When I went in, unlike…read moreother reviewers, the employee there was friendly and helpful. The store itself has a small but good variety of items for home improvement. But I think this is just a supply store for local contractors? Several contractors came in and out with what looked like a bulk order. But when I looked around NOTHING in the store was priced out. When I asked where the prices were on everything they said "The owner asked them not to price anything because the prices change every day." Yikes. Incredibly sketchy.

The other guys that work there are your typical guys - service is adequate and a few of the criticisms that other reviewers left I can see a potential basis for. Meaning I get their point. They don't seem to be charmers by any means and if you're not assertive, I can visualize them getting lost in a conversation about a supermodel while a line backs up at the register (not that paint stores get many backups). Overall Benjamin Moore paint is excellent and my painters applied it beautifully to our house. People that walk by really like the colors and a recent unsolicited offer for my house based on the curb appeal (they didn't see the inside) is another testament to the look of a well done Benjamin Moore paint job. So I'd give Becky 4-5 stars for her eye and skill with the color palette - and the rest of the experience a 2.5

They even took the time to explain different painting tools to me and to let me know when I'd chosen a more expensive item than what I needed for my project -- all without making me feel like the total novice that I am. I will definitely be back. These guys know their stuff!

He recommended a type of paint that is tougher than usual but still latex, which brush to use and told me I didn't need to sand which was a relief. Here is a photo of how my wallpaper and paint turned out. I couldn't be happier. Thank you Johnson Paint!

My 3-year-old and I stood waiting quietly for nearly 15 minutes for our turn to be helped. While we waited, my son calmly counted the rolls of painter's tape stacked on a shelf, not running around, just counting and stacking. Completely harmless. Out of nowhere, the employee began verbally berating me for letting my toddler make a mess and "be annoying." I was stunned. There was no chaos. There was no disruption. Just a bored little kid counting tape while we waited for service that never came. The tone was hostile, condescending, and completely unprovoked. If this is how they treat parents with well-behaved children, I can't imagine how they treat anyone else. If you want quality paint and a business that treats customers like human beings, go to the Benjamin Moore in Malden or Ace in Stoneham instead. They're friendly, helpful, and professional -- everything this location is not. This store has lost my business permanently. And we've spent thousands as we've renovated our home over the years. But judging by today, they never seemed interested in earning it in the first place.

Got an email confirmation at 3:46pm on May 29 saying "Your delivery is on track!" and "Your delivery scheduled!" for that same day. No one ever showed up or contacted me. Didn't have time to call on Thursday so I called on Friday morning at 9:38am. The person I spoke to said deliveries are only made on Wednesdays and Saturdays and that someone would call me Saturday May 31 to let me know when the delivery would be ready. It's now 7pm and Ace closes at 5pm. No one has called, no delivery has been brought to the house. I REALLY wanted to give my business to someplace local, but this is ridiculous. I have cancelled my order and unfortunately won't be using this Ace Hardware in Woburn ever again. If an order is placed with a delivery day that you don't deliver on, you should contact the person placing the order and inform them of such. Extremely disappointing.

At the recommendation of the funeral director, I contacted Derby Farms on Friday 7/31 to order…read moreflowers for my brother's funeral. I spoke with Lucinda. At my brother's request he wanted a simple wake with minimal flowers but we wanted one for "Brother" and "Uncle". I explained I wanted something simple and more nature/natural than standard arrangements. My request was something I could look at and see same and/or similar flowers (think wildflowers) I would see on a walk. I also wanted it to be large enough without being gaudy and to make it something that would draw your eye to it and away from his simple pine box. Lucinda explained what she could offer and how it would be arranged and we talked about the pros and cons of keeping something like that fresh for the time we needed. I was not disappointed. The two arrangements were naturally colorful with an assortment of different types of flowers and displayed so beautifully. But what caused me to write this review is what happened at the cemetery. Almost immediately after they were put on the gravesite, bees began lilting on it, going from bud to bud. I felt that they were drawn to flowers that were not loaded up with chemicals to make them last longer and were obviously fresh enough that the bees found them tasty! it was a sight and more than a few people commented. I want to thank you for making the send off for my brother a little easier to bear knowing we did the best to make his burial as "green" as we could.
