When we heard it was sadly closing down at the end of the year, we made a special trip just to stop in here. It's a beautiful store with more than just gardening supplies. We picked up some toys for our cats as well as some Christmas ornaments and postcards as memorabilia. And I especially love how despite Luis the store cat passing away over 10 years ago, you can still find lots of references to him around the store. Really wish there was a way to save this place. :(

Not friendly at all. Shame. Cute shop though. Don't shop here. Mean. Too bad. Maybe they can changeread more

This little "Toy Store for the Hockey Player" is located INSIDE the Ann Arbor Ice Cube . . . wish I…read moreknew that when I was driving back and forth trying to find the shop. But I finally found it, and am I glad I did! After many a blisters from too many a use of the rental skates at the Ice Cube, I decided to take the plunge and purchase my own skates. The staff at Hockey World were great! I know nothing about skates, what to look for, how to care for them. The salesperson was patient, answered my questions, helped me lace my skates. They were able to bake them right there and sharpened the blades before I left. I can't wait to try them out, and when I'm ready to upgrade my skates, I'm definitely coming back to Hockey World.

I have a Toro Timesaver Lawn mower. It is too big too fit in back of my vehicle. I have to rely on…read moreMark's to pick up and deliver. They charge, which is not a big deal. I stopped by in May of 2025 to arrange for maintenanc. They were supposed to pick up the mower within a week, but it took them almost three weeks to pick up, they had "forgotten" about it. Okay, mistakes happen. In November 2025, a part fell off the mower and the mower started to clang, not a good sign. I went to Mark's on November 16th and waited 1/2 hour for my turn in line; not a big deal. I specifically told them that I needed to have the mower repaired before I left for Florida; if I waited until May when I got back, the repair time would be too long and the grass would be unmanageable. They said they would try to finish it before I left because they didn't want to store it till May. They then took a $60.00 deposit plus $1.80 charge for credit card usage. It is now December 12, the mower is still sitting in my garage, they never came. I went to their store today and I was told that they don't start lawnmower repairs till spring. If that was the case, why didn't they say it on November 16, when they took my money? I asked them to refund my deposi. They did, but. To the credit card fee. I wish I could charge them an aggregation fee and a time lost fee for my time. I am going to try tofind a different repair shop in the Spring. They lost both my blower and mower maintenance business. I will only go back to them as a last resort under duress. Be careful in your dealings with them.

I'm not typically one to plan ahead. But I do know that the time when you need a snowblower, is the…read moreworst time to try and buy a snowblower. So we bought this house. And it's a good house. But it is on a corner lot and it has a lot of sidewalk. I mean, a lot of sidewalk. The older I get, the more shoveling hurts. Plus, I feel like clearing snow is something I should be able to do myself, instead of hiring it out. Much like mowing the lawn. Call me old school. Long story short, I needed a snowblower. So I went online. I did some research. I thought long and hard about my snowblower needs, my budget, and what kind of person I actually am. Turns out, I'm not someone who wants to mess with internal combustion engines, or gas tanks, or carburetors. Which means I wanted a battery powered snowblower. After finding the Toro single stage snowblower, I happened to stumble onto the fact that there was a local shop where I could buy one. Thank you Google (sorry Yelp) because I'm still new to Michigan and Ann Arbor and had no idea the Weingartz was even a place! So I picked up the phone, spoke to a lovely man, told him what I wanted, and gave my credit card number. I asked about contactless pick up, and when I pulled up, the gent wheeled my brand new snowblower out into the parking lot and loaded up in my car. No muss. No fuss. Easy peasy. And priced competitively with the big box stores, all while buying local. The machine is wonderful. It throws snow like a champ. My back is happy. My wallet is happy. My neighbors who walk are happy. My community is just a teeny tiny bit better because I kept my purchase to a Michigan based business. I hope it lasts for a thousand years. But if it does not, I'll go back to Weingartz first and pick up the latest model.

Had my Exmark zero turn picked up for some maintenance. I was contacted Friday saying it was done…read more I called them to schedule delivery and was told they couldn't until I paid. I said I want to come in Monday, pay and speak to the service manager about my bill, it was excessive for what they did. Found out the earliest they could deliver it was 10 days out. Are you kidding me? My mower was purchased there so I figured I'd get treated well, not the case. I will never be back, I had been told not to take it there, should have listened. Update...My mower was delivered back after being completed for 10 days. Zero oil in the hydraulic reservoir and two idlers were replaced that are fine. I spent $950 dollars and they deliver it back with no fluid in the reservoir. They did not perform the service correctly and were not able to tell me when they could fix it. I will begin proceedings to dispute the charge. Do not ever get service at this place. Second update...The issues have been resolved, so far I've added 16 oz of fluid. I was refunded for the idlers that were replaced that were not bad. Unfortunately this should never have happened. Weingartz has lost me and probably more as customers. This is my memory of Weingartz and it will be shared when anyone asks me about the business.

Got the service scheduled for three days out, and received an immediate confirmation, as well as a day-before confirmation that included a photo of the technician. Received a text from the technician when he was on his way. Upon his inspection of the dryer, he determined he would need to order a new part, but said he would be able to get back to install it by the end of the day. Turned out even better than that--he was back in a couple of hours, telling me he decided it would be quicker to swing back to my place then instead of after his next stop, as he'd planned. After the new part was in, everything was fine. The repair wasn't cheap--replacing a circuit board won't be in any circumstances--but the repair went smoothly and the dryer is now working fine.
