    ****BUYER BEWARE**** This company is an absolute NIGHTMARE to work with. We purchased cabinets for my mothers home. Were very eager to get them installed since we had major renovations done to our kitchen at the time and had to work with several contractors. The cabinets we were told would take about 5 days to install. We showed alot of good faith and even paid them in full in advance. BIG MISTAKE as it was clear and obvious that they had put us at the end of their list now that they had received the payment. The guy who came to install them kept making excuses that he had other jobs very far away in "Chicago" so he was unable to come. This went on and on. The guy would stop in 1 day of any given week and brought 2 or 3 guys with him and they'd "work" for about an hour then leave. Several times we saw them laying in our yard taking a break, sitting in their car blasting music and eating all the while no real progress was being made. After 4 MONTHS only 2 or 3 cabinets had actually been installed. We had to push back the granit installation multiple times because they could not set it since the cabinets had yet to be finished installing. During this entire time all we got was excuses as to how there was no way they could come install this week, but would definitely be here next week to finish everything. This went on and on until we told them we needed it done or we were going to hire someone else to do it. As you can see after 4 months for a 5 day project we had exhausted all of our patience. Even after we told them that they STILL did not come out. According to them, they had an "important party" and could not come AGAIN. (Thats right... a party) We called a gentlemen out of Spring Grove IL who came out to quote us. He immediately told us every single cabinet that had been installed was not aligned properly and would have to be taken down and reinstalled. This meant it was going to cost us more now than it would have originally had Western Expo never tried installing in the first place. We accepted because at this point it was going to be 5 MONTHS without a functioning kitchen in our home. After we accepted this price the man started work that same day and was done in just 3 DAYS BY HIMSELF. All the cabinets we had were up, mounted and aligned. That however is not the end of this nightmare. Since we had purchased these cabinets and the installation initially with Western Corps the person in charge of installing was also in charge of bringing the cabinets to our home. They never brought everything even after 4 almost 5 months. We had to adjust on the fly because many cabinets were missing crucial components. At this point we told them we simply wanted a refund for the installation alone, since it had been done wrong and was grossly past their project completion date. THEY REFUSED. We told them they were being extremely unreasonable and that if they did not refund us the installation in full we would take them to court for all the repairs that had to be made. This is because they broke and damaged many of the cabinets during their 4 month long "installation" as well as damaging floors and walls. They still refused. We took them to court which was another long and strenuous process. Luckily it was very clear to the judge that they were completely out of line. The judge handed us a verdict that manged to return our installation deposit, cover the cost of repairs, the cost of hiring a new person and the court costs. If there's ever been a company that held the TITLE of being RUDE, INCOMPETENT, LAZY, & UNQUALIFIED it would have a difficult time competing with this one.

    I have been coming here for years. The people are great and a picture of my dog is on the wall…read morethree times. Yes - it is dog friendly. When I have had questions, someone there actually knows something ..... even electrical questions. I love this place and the people.

    What a hidden gem! I stopped by  Ace Hardware on a whim to pick up some soil--usually, I default to…read morethe big box stores like Home Depot, but I'm so glad I gave this place a shot. I was in and out for soil... or so I thought. I ended up stumbling across their clearance section, and let me tell you--it's a goldmine. They had lighting and other household gear marked down to 60% off retail. I scored four awesome headlamps for a fraction of the price. It's not something I planned for, but I'm definitely not mad about it. I believe it was Bill or Phil who helped me out--he was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. I asked about grow lights, and not only did he make a solid recommendation, but he also walked me over to the right section. That kind of personal service is rare these days, and it left a great impression. One thing I noticed, though, was that the older staff members were genuinely friendly and helpful. They greeted me, engaged in conversation, and seemed to take pride in being there. In contrast, the younger staff felt a little checked out... not rude, but they were kind of low energy and not particularly invested. This is not a dealbreaker, but it is worth mentioning. The fantastic selection of hidden deals, and some of the best soil prices I've seen in town. It's clear that this Ace cares about its regulars and offers value that goes beyond convenience. Pro tip: Always check the clearance aisle--you will find something you didn't know you needed!

    First of all, save your sanity if you can and do not go on a weekend. I have to say I have come to…read morethe Home Depot on a weekend and just wish I had actually stayed at home. That said I did come during the week and had awesome customer service. I had to buy a bunch of different lumber to fix my back deck and the person helping me could've been more friendly, offered me lots of tips after I asked and stacked up everything to get it out front. I also had a lot of little things to pick up in different departments, and I found someone who actually walked me through motor to the store to find what I needed. From a new cage to cover my dryer vent to changing out the hardware on one of my doors. I think the key if you're looking for good service it's just not show up when they're 50 million people there. So if you can get in there before work starts because they open at like 6 AM in the morning, or go after work you'll be doing yourself a huge favor.

    Very disappointing experience with recent policy changes at Home Depot in Vernon Hills…read more I've been a loyal customer and contractor for years, but the new return policies are terrible. They make it extremely difficult to return merchandise that's only slightly past the return date -- even when it's unused and in perfect condition. The staff and store managers seem to have no authority or flexibility to help customers in any way. It's frustrating that Home Depot is becoming so rigid and unwilling to work with loyal customers and contractors. Very poor policy decisions -- disappointing to see such a decline in customer service. Better service from local lumberyard and nearby home stores.
