It's truly a…read morecharming store from the beautiful flowers outside the front door, to the back walls, to the 2nd room, including life-size cutouts of Travis & Taylor there to greet you! Everywhere I turned, around every corner there was something that caught my eye and interest, especially all the unique food items, many hand-crafted by well-known independent companies in the KC Metro area. And the most extensive variety of Stonewall Kitchen jams, jellies, and preserves of every sort! I swooned at the sight of Pink Grapefruit Marmalade...you just can't leave here empty handed! Gift-able items galore, sure to please, because you know YOU want them too! Kitchen and housewares, unique grocery items, games...an almost endless variety. It's just delightful place to shop and browse. And be sure to try the epic assortment of the locally produced Polly's Pop!

I had visited this store a few years back and remembered it fondly as a cute store with neat…read morekitchen nick nacks and delectable food items. However, while in the area I decided to stop by since I am in the midst of a kitchen remodel, and I did not like the vibe I received from the woman in the store. I do not believe that she was the proprietor but someone who seemed to have hawkish eyes and a bit of cynical skepticism about her. I do not present myself like the regular provincial type of women from these parts. I am cool and confident and humble (but not in that Mary Kay way, if you know what I mean). It seems that I didn't fit her particular vision of who she wanted in there. B.T.W, I was the only there and am not surprised if this is because others have felt the same. I almost was about to purchase something that I liked but decided that I could definitely find it elsewhere.

Excellent customer service at this Office Depot. I would recommend for office supplies, printing…read moreand all your computer and printer needs. I do all my printing at the Office Depot and the people are always very helpful and are very customer focused. Obviously the store is under good management- none of this "not my job" or complaining "they work us too hard" .It is refreshing to experience this level of customer service. Today I brought in a computer we had just purchased because I thought the touch screen function wasn't working- but it actually didn't have that function. I had thought we had asked for that at time of purchase but it was my fault for not knowing what I bought. So i thought that I was going to be stuck with a good computer that I wished had that one extra feature I really wanted. Even without whining (me) the salesperson Aaron went to work and without hesitation exchanged the computer for one with the touch screen model. I gladly paid the extra for what I was getting- and I got a great deal both times on each computer. I found Office Depot is very competitive on computers and printers. When I picked it up later in the day the sales clerk apologized for me not getting the correct computer the first time (even though it really was my fault). I would say without a doubt Office Depot exceeded my expectations of what I considered to be outstanding customer service. Office Depot had in the past earned my business- today they solidified my trust in their operation and quality of people they employ.

The lady told my 10 year old daughter that per policy she could not help us design anything she was extremely unhelpful to say the least. I mean, I'm not trying to be rude, but it's not like this store is happening. There were maybe two customers in there on a nice Saturday day. My husband had to end up writing it out with a sharpie, and she finally made copies after he had to threaten to call corporate on her. It's just sad the amount of customer service skills that this world is lacking one day that lady will have a daughter and she will lose an animal, and I hope someone has empathy for her, because she sure didn't for us.

Do not…read morerent equipment from them, they will charge you for service and repairs due to previous rentals and claim you abused the equipment. I rented a Toro Dingo recently, used it three hours to grade dirt then moved four rocks, all under 300 lbs., well under the max lifting capacity of the Dingo and it started leaking hydraulic fluid all over my driveway and yard. I was told I may be responsible for the repairs, when they picked it up and that they would let me know. They let me know only by charging my credit card an additional $450. When I questioned them about it, one of the teenagers working there showed me a large piece of plastic that had been jammed into the undercarriage by a previous rental. It looked to be a piece of above ground swimming pool that was probably crushed into a dumpster with the machine. I work in commercial construction and use this type of equipment all of the time, there is no way anything I did would have caused this failure. The particular model of Dingo they rent is known on equipment forums for leaking, something I found out after the rental. My wife and I will no longer shop there in the future. We probably made purchases on average once or twice a week the last 25 years. No more. We will drive to KC, Liberty, Gladstone or St. Joe from now on, no matter what and support competing businesses. The $450 I was charged for repairs is going to buy a lot of great marketing. My wife is a local business owner since 2000 and I work around Smithville and the entire KC metro area. We will be sharing our experience with anyone local and beyond. Over the last six or seven years, we have made a point to shop there since the local alderman approved a TIF, granting a significant tax advantage to another competitive hardware store. Prior to the passage of the TIF, we opposed its approval because all local businesses should be subject to the same rules and the aldermen want to play favorites. If you need to rent equipment, go through United, Sunbelt or Home Depot, better service and they won't make you pay for previous abuse or damage.
