    Always come here because they have more selection comparing to other stores. I needed grout and…read morehope to find a pack that come with everything but they didn't have it moreover not that many selection for ready to use. As of customer service, after I asked for direction to find something, she said 'should be over-there, if not should on the next aisle or 30......ummm ok, I will just walk all over the store to find it by myself then. Thanks! Checkout station took long and froze so had to move stuff over to another one

    I ordered an appliance from this store but need to talk to them about an issue regarding delivery…read more It is a total nightmare to get through on the phone. Wow..... I've called about 5 or 6 times now, and it's always a long long wait before anyone picks up. Last time, someone answered, but she's talking to someone in front of her, who's arguing about something he bought. No matter how many times you say hello, she can't be bothered to attend to the customer on the phone which she, for some unknown reason, answered, even though she wasn't ready to speak to the customer. Why on earth would you answer the phone if you're still talking to someone else? The other day i was put on hold forever. It was obvious nobody was going to pick up so i finally hung up and called back. Then the same thing happened when that employee transferred me to appliances. I see they only have 2 stars even though they're paying yelp a monthly fee. That means they're REALLY bad!

    I usually go here just to get the Dust Remover since it's the only location I can think of…read more I heard that they sell cheap tools, but it's a small place to go though. You can find at least some tools you need for repairs. People probably come here because they prefer getting cheaper tools compared to the ones from other stores. At least you're not in a big building constantly looking for supplies that you can't find.

    We've had our fair share of home improvement stores and we're now seemingly leaning toward Harbor…read moreFreight for tools which is great to have options. L O C A T I O N Harbor Freight Tools is located in a plaza on the corner of Blacow & Mowry Ave. The parking lot is shared by a Indian grocery store and other establishments. It was a crazy experience when we were parking so proceed with caution. I N S I D E Everything is labelled well and what I do is look up what we want online picking the store we want to go to and it will state what aisle to look and if they have inventory at that store. Take this with a grain of salt. What I found with this particular Harbor Freight was that many shelves and areas were empty. So again proceed with caution. But it was all quite organized. S E R V I C E We were in need of a 5/8 deep socket and a socket wrench as well as a normal wrench. Luckily Harbor Freight comes to the rescue as we're not needing anything super fancy, just something that will do the job without breaking the bank. Luckily they had what we needed at this particular Harbor Freight. There was someone who was walking up and down the aisles asking if people needed help. He pointed us in the right area. Checking out was a bit long though as there was only one person initially and they were doing a return that seemed to be having some issues. But eventually the line was being handled a second person as they saw the line was growing exponentially. He seemed to be chugging away through the line after we paid. Glad they were there to help but it would've been nice to have a third person helping out. O V E R A L L This particular Harbor Freight seems to be quite popular that their stock seems to be out of a lot of things. Lines got pretty long but it was just chance. I recommend trying out Harbor Freight for any tools you may need that are good enough and doesn't have to be expensive and just works.

    I usually have good experiences at Home Depot, but my recent interaction with an employee named…read moreBonnie at the register was one of the worst I've ever had. In my personal experience, she was extremely rude and dismissive. I explained to her that another employee had marked the asphalt for free because it was all ripped up, but she didn't seem to believe me. When I politely asked her to call her coworker to confirm, she became frustrated and gave me a look that made me feel like I was the problem. I don't know why she thought it was okay to talk to me that way. The energy was so negative that I actually grabbed my things and moved to another register -- something I've never had to do before. I was in an electric cart and had large bins to purchase, but instead of helping, she picked them up, speed-walked to drop them off with attitude, and sarcastically said, "Have a good day, sir," before quickly walking away. I even told my daughter, right there, that this is not how anyone should act at work. Bonnie turned around and asked me what I said, even though she clearly heard me. She seemed angry, but that should never spill over into how she treats customers. Overall, this experience left a really bad impression. Home Depot is normally great, but this interaction needs to be addressed. No customer should feel disrespected or talked down to when they're simply trying to check out. Visited 11-12-25 evening

    I've been doing a massive remodel for my in law suite and I've had to make a whole bunch of trips…read moreto this hardware store for supplies at all times throughout the day. You can tell everyone is trying to make do with what ever staff they can have and even though they all seem to be wearing multiple hats everyone is so helpful and nice! They had pretty good stock, I was able to knock out almost everything on a whole list I was only really expecting to get some of which was super nice, and they all worked really well with each other when I needed an item that was locked up or making paint for me. Some items are only a little pricy, but very good quality so it's worth it if you have a flexible budget. Shout out to the evening staff thank you for always being so helpful!

    I'm shopping around for indoor plants. A hobby I just started. The Lowe's off Brokaw didn't have as…read moremany plants as the Fremont location. The Fremont location have more plants to offer and the customer service was great. I was looking for a plastic draining pan and the staff were helpful in pointing it out to me. It's not outside or near the entrance which you would think. They have growth hormones which I plan to use when my plants have more roots growing out of their pots. There are plenty to look at. I took a lot of photos but not all because there were so many plants. The plants are displayed very well and organized. If you need work-life balance, taking care of a plant in the office and seeing it grow is rewarding and takes your mind off work. Plants aren't too expensive when you start out with easy ones to raise.

    Can't beat prices here. Even when not on ad they beat any large box store prices. Not liking how…read morethey have different tiers of coupons. You have ad sales, coupons needed sales, and club sales that go on simultaneously. Makes me confused on what item I saw where and at what price. Went on a Saturday morning at opening... got a greeting... which is rare because this store tends to get busy. They were out of a few ad items but a few they were able to locate in the back.

    First time encountered such rude customer service. Not sure if he's just unhappy with his job or…read morethey're having a bad day or is this how they always treat their customers. I called in to see if there was a tech cart in stock, because apparently their online inventory is inaccurate. A nice lady helped me. She told me they didn't have any in stock, I ask since you guys can see who has it and your inventory is more accurate in your system, can you tell me which store does have it ? She said yes I'll put you on hold, 5 mins later a guy came on the phone super aggressive, asking me what I'm looking for I said I have already been helped. He says what are you looking for ??? I told him wha I was looking for and he said unfortunately we don't stocks check here. You need to call every store if you want to know if it's in stock. Then I explained that since all HF have the same inventory can't he just view it to see it ? Aggressively told me no, I asked for his name he said he can't give out his name. I asked him then what was other lady doing for five minutes? He said she's not even checking the item she's helping another person. So please explain what was the point of putting me on hold and telling me you're going to check then not checking ?? I asked for his name and he told me he's not allowed to give out his name. This phone call was at 10:13am 4/17/26 I need someone to please reach out because this is unacceptable. I will also reach out to their main office in Woodland Hills CA.
