I had a great experience at Ace Hardware in Torrance. I needed a duplicate key made for my 2016…read moreHonda NC700 motorcycle, and Eric was incredibly helpful throughout the process. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly skilled at what he does. He quickly made a copy of my motorcycle key for only $19.99, and the new key works perfectly--it starts the bike without any issues. It's not always easy to find someone who can duplicate motorcycle keys accurately, so I really appreciate Eric's expertise and excellent customer service. If you need a key copied, I highly recommend visiting Ace Hardware in Torrance and asking for Eric. Thanks again for the great service!

I wouldn't rate them below three stars, feels unconscionable, so that's where this lands for me…read more The main factor is pricing. Items here run noticeably higher compared to larger, non-mom-and-pop hardware stores, which makes it harder to shop here regularly. Keys were $7 each, and I accidentally grabbed a key ring I thought was $6, but it had been placed on the wrong hook and rang up as $13. A few areas of the store could use better organization and upkeep. Items were hung in the wrong place or can't easily tell pricing. I came in just to make keys and ended up spending $30. That said, the store staff were friendly and helpful, which I appreciated.

I get a dirty look, and he mumbles some curse words under his breath. WTF. I'm never coming back here again. I'd rather go to Southbay hardware on Artesia, where they are friendly and they have no issues with you returning an item. This guy is a complete jerk and should not be anywhere near anything that has to do with customer service.

I have to wonder if my recent experience was just a bad hire or something else?…read more I called to check if an item was in stock and verify pricing - the woman who answered the phone was fairly abrupt (rude), "I'm with another customer right now." Anyhow she put me on hold, then got back to me, "Yeah, we have what you're looking for." 2 minutes later, I arrived and made my purchase. No pleasantries, no "thank you" upon completion of the transaction. I'm not sure if they're still capturing phone numbers and tracking sales, but that didn't happen either. I self-loaded my two 40 lb. sacks of water softener salt. Too bad I threw out my $5 coupon they mailed me - today would have been a good day to use it - I earned it. Disappointed...3 stars is probably generous.

So what's the point? Why pay convenience store prices for things that you can get for way cheaper online or at the giant orange box store? Over $7 to cut a damn key?! And I brought the key blank!!! Come on. You're not even trying to be fair. I wanted to support a local small business but this place is truly not worth the sky high prices for these things. This store isn't worth it unless you're truly desperate to have what you need. Otherwise steer clear their prices are a joke.

When I didnt hear back after 3 weeks, I called and left my contact info. For the rep because I wasnt sure he had gotten my email. Receptionist assured me that she would make sure I got response the following week. Fast forward. After no call or email, I called the store and the original rep. answered the phone. I asked him if he got my email and he said yes, but hadnt had time to follow up. I told him how far behind we were on the planning since we already have a contractor lined up to install. He said he would make some calls that very day and call me back. No call back. No email. Nothing. And that was 3 days ago. Apparently, this person does not under any circumstances want to sell me a door. I had heard great things about this place. Very disappointed.

I prefer Lowes over Home Depot. Lowes stores are cleaner and the parking lot is less chaotic. I…read morehave recently written how Lowes offers a no paper receipt option at checkout. This reduces trash and saves them money that can be passed on to the customer. However, HD sells small hickory wood logs to use in a smoker. Lowes only sells chunks. I dragged the 30 lbs. of wood to the register and went through the payment process. When I asked if there was a no receipt option, the person working there said, don't worry, it will give you one." I proceeded to throw it away in the trash can as I left. There is no need in most cases to produce a paper receipt. I have an account with HD, give me the electronic option there.
