Everyone has that friend who goes crazy in a stationary store, and I am that friend. The next time…read moreyou need a gift for that friend, go to Hammerpress! Hammerpress has a super unique collection of paper goods, candles, soaps, and cards, which makes it a great location for a niche gift. They have beautiful cards for all occasions. There are tons of fancy pens and hand-painted, recycled-paper journals. I droll over all of their carefully curated candles and unique perfumes. This is not a cheap place to shop for a gift, but it's worth it! The recipient of the gift will feel so special and artsy. There is usually plenty of parking on the streets of the West Bottoms, unless it's a First Friday weekend - then expect to have to stroll a far distance, but Hammerpress is located conveniently close to some of my favorite antique shops.

I've been a fan of Hammerpress since they opened their first print shop in the Crossroads, way back…read morein the early aughts. As a college student I'd look forward to an excuse to trek to KCMO from Lawrence to shop here and pick up some local goodies. They've been doing this so long, you could probably even make an argument that they were kind of the original shop local spot here in the city. Flash forward and Hammerpress has migrated from their OG location to further down SW BLVD, and now to this new spot in the heart of the West Bottoms. It had been a while since I visited so I wasn't sure where they had moved to, but it seems fitting that they'd end up in the West Bottoms as many of the artists that once had studios in the Crossroads have migrated that direction as well, and it seems true to both their craft as printers, and their vibe as artists to be in yet another cool, up and coming, hip neighborhood. All of this being said, this new spot is by far their coolest. From the arched entryway, to the bright interior, you're going to find everything you've come to expect from Hammerpress. Beautiful art prints? Check! Locally made greeting cards? Check! other stationary and art goodies? check and check! Next time you need a card go check them out - you won't regret it!

Full disclosure, I worked…read morein a print shop for 4 years, so I have very high standards, and their team always exceeds them. I can not recommend them highly enough. I've used them for many prints, each of which is of exceptional quality. More than once, a project has required a, frankly, unreasonable turnaround time and they have always graciously risen to the challenge. Their prices are very reasonable, often putting their competitors to shame. Once, due to a technical failure on my end and no fault of their own, I was not able to pick up a project in time for an event, and they graciously did not charge me full price. It is this type of incredible customer service that will ensure my business and recommendation for some time to come! Great job, guys!

I recently had a check engine light pop up on my 2001 Jeep Cherokee. I called Jon (on a Saturday at…read more4pm) and he said he'd be over in an hour to check it out. He was friendly, approachable and able to diagnose the issue within minutes of arrival. He answered all of my questions in a respectable and professional manner. I felt confident in his expertise and appreciated the transparency throughout the process. It's not every day you find a mechanic who goes above and beyond, especially on a weekend. He gave me a VERY fair price. He gets the parts and drives to your home/work. Worth every penny. I couldn't be happier with the service I received from Jon. I've decided that this will be my go-to mechanic for all future needs. If you're looking for reliable, prompt, and friendly service, I highly recommend giving him a call. Five stars well-deserved!

I found Jonatan on Yelp and gave him call, he quoted me a reasonable price and was at my door within an hour.

I'm very pleased with his work and I will definitely be contacting him again.

KC Dent & Ding was INCREDIBLE!…read more We had dents in both our cars - hail damage on one, and door dings on the other. Bill at KC D&D fixed them ALL, like an all-powerful sheetmetal magician! Bill was super easy to work with and schedule with, and although he was very honest up front about being bearish on being able to remedy the car with door dings (due to make/model issues with safety bracing, metal composition, etc.), he exceeded even his own expectations and was able to perfectly remedy ALL the dents in even that tougher car! One of the other quotes we got wouldn't even quote that car due to the aforementioned difficulties with fixing that make and model, typically. I've already recommended KC D&D to two people, and although I hope to never *need* to use their services again, should I fall victim to further dents or dings, I won't hesitate to return to Bill in a heartbeat!

I don't even know where to start... I had an appointment…read moreset for Tuesday. I was getting my transmission serviced. I dropped the vehicle off in the morning as agreed. They made sure they had all my information. As you can see in the screenshot they texted me to confirm my appointment. My first clue should have been when the lady behind me was greeted and assisted before me, I realized we were not probably getting the same service but I thought that the man assisting people was rude for not acknowledging me at all, even after we had eye contact. We agreed that my wife and I would not be waiting, and would pick it up in the afternoon. When I got the quote they said a couple of hours. So at around 5:00 I called to see if the service was complete. I was then informed that my vehicle was on the ticket for tomorrow. I completely understand that things come up and life happens, and that my vehicle was not an emergency, or broke down. I was just dumbfounded that they didn't reach out to me in any way! I told the person I spoke to on the phone that I was on my way to retrieve my vehicle. When we got there I went in and spoke with a lady about getting my vehicle. I expressed my disappointment, frustration, and confusion. I did lose my cool and used profanity at the very end of our conversation. I had apologized for my attitude and said may I have my keys please. She agreed with my frustration and then told me my vehicle was being pulled up for me. That's when I freaked out, why in the world would you have to get in my vehicle, adjust settings for YOUR COMFORT, and roll down the windows and move the mirror, just to move the f***ing vehicle literally like a parking space! I just couldn't believe you can't do the service when agreed on, not contact me in any manner saying, Hey we are keeping YOUR vehicle longer, and then act like you are doing me some kind of favor by moving it! Get the f**k out of my vehicle. Needless to say, we did not get anything done to our vehicle at this location, but we did waste time, and effort. Thanks for nothing but frustration! I would a negative number if possible!!
