Another winter, another shovel…read more I showed up here last Tuesday (you know, the day it snowed a lot before it rained and froze and all those roofs fell in?) in the hopes that they would save my ass with their shovel supply again. They did. It wasn't my first choice in shovels, but it was the LAST DAMN ONE. I got it at a discount too, why? I'm not sure. But I was GRATEFUL AS HELL. These guys are always nice to me, and always have what I want.

I know there are teens who go in as a group and take/mess up items on displays. Guess they visited the store on an off day. I've been going here since they opened almost 20 years ago and have had nothing but great service. Thank goodness I don't have to get lost in Home Depot to just pick up a few items. And have always bought their Benjamin Moore paints- the best!

We send our kids solo to local stores with a budget regularly for errands, Mother's Day, Father's Day, holidays etc to teach them June Bug- awesome Place & Gather- awesome Every restaurant- awesome * we allow him to go to 99 for dinner with friends as we've taught manners and tipping Whole Foods- with a smile So I never thought twice of sending my 14 yr old son down to buy 2 bags of Mulch after I had him plant/transplant a few items from our patio bed (while his mother sat in car on a work call). He was literally stopped at the door as he isn't 18? Not that they won't sell spray paint etc (which I get)...they stopped a teenager from buying mulch? To add salt they wouldn't help her with the bags when she tried to buy after they turned him away. The lesson for our son "never buy where you aren't treated well or respected" Lesson for me.....Home Depot/Amazon for supplies (begrudgingly) and Ricky's in Somerville for plants, rest of local businesses keep up the community vibe

This store is a complete and total ripoff. First of all, they don't disclose paint prices. You…read morewon't find them anywhere. 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!!! Then I get home to find it is the WRONG color at $55 a gal! Of course, non-returnable because they already mixed it. NEVER go here.

They gave me a nice red color to match the sample I brought and some tinted primer to make the application a little easier. All in all, a perfectly fine experience. (They didn't mention that I'd need to clean the brushes with paint thinner. Oil paints are a pain in the butt. So just an FYI.)

I recently applied for the Credit Manager position with Johnson Paint. The phone interview felt…read morephony and contrived. The woman who interview me seemed inexperienced and did not know how to properly conduct a professional interview . She barely went over my resume or qualifications for this positions! I felt my time was wasted. Then 7 days later, they (Johnson Paint) sent my a "canned" , cold automated duplicitous email, lying about moving forward with another candidate?! But when I went directly to their careers page on their corporate website, I noticed that the "Credit Manager" position was never filled! Mind you there was only one open position for this job! They lied to me , just to get rid of me and to deter me from applying for any other open requisitions with the Johnson Paint company! In retrospect, after reviewing several disgruntled customer experiences reviewed here on yelp.com, I'm glad employment with Johnson Paint did not come to fruition!

I also decided to paint the legs of my butcher block cart. She helped choosing that color as well and it was perfect. Evan gave me lots of pointers on how to go about painting it like painting from the bottom up and I totally understand now why that has to be. 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!

I wanted some Benjamin Moore paint and I didn't want to go to the local TrueValue because they tend to be overpriced and I like supporting local businesses. I was really impressed with how knowledgeable, honest and attentive the staff was. One of the guys helped me pick out some samples and steered me towards a more affordable sample option since I was getting so many colors! He certainly didn't have to do that, but I was so thrilled that he was so honest about saving a few bucks. I will absolutely be back to Kirshon for more paint and painting advice. If you can get there, I would recommend it over one of the major chains.

After a extensive wait time and multiple attempts to flag an employee down, Vinny was great and extremely knowledgeable. We had a ton of questions when it came to fridges, washers, and dryers and he was there to answer any and every question we threw at him. He informed us about the 3 or 5 year protection plans as well. Once we purchased the fridge he gave us a thick stack of papers stating more information about the fridge and the delivery date/process. We were also told to purchase an extension for the water line as the fridge has one but really short. I'm glad he pointed that out to us. Thanks again, Vinny for A1 customer service! Only reason I'm knocking a star off is because it took a while to finally find an employee to help us.
