This place is huge and has a bit of everything from ranch supplies, automotive, clothing, home hardware, gifts and gardening supplies. I was welcomed upon entering and asked if I needed assistance three time in my stroll through the store. I don't really have a basis to know how competitive their pricing is but the selection is amazing.

A Five Star Customer Service Experience buying a Turo Blower Vac Mulcher. Thank you to Richard, Assistant Manager and Cashier Kolton for outstanding service. I'm so proud you put this together for me and showed me how you operate it. This was a fabulous buying experience. Mom also bought a thermal hat and Mat cookies. We loved your store and we will be back to shop again. A farm store is a very special place to shop. The customers that come shop here are down to earth, happy and friendly. A doggie named lucky greeted us. Fantastic customer service from the staff and thank you for putting my blower up at the front counter after I called, it was waiting for me!! We were truly impressed.

This is our favorite spot to get our feed! Always lots of pleasant and helpful service. We've received some of our chicks from this location as well. They've been healthy and I appreciate they seem to care more for the health and wellbeing of the animals than some other stores that carry chicks.

They have something for just about everything and if not they'll try to find it. From clothes to weed killer. Animal feed to nuts and bolts

Mannnn I love this store! I love Ace hardware stores in general, but I'm in here probably 4 or 5…read moretimes a month? I live really close, so it's really convenient to pop in for a bag of wood or other little trinkets I may need. I'll address the staff issue first, I've never ever ever had an issue with any of the employees here. They've all been very nice, very accommodating and very helpful. And I don't think it's just because I'm a familiar face, I honestly think that's just their ethic. There's been quite a few times that they don't have specific things that I need, and all the other hand, sometimes they have what other big box stores don't. So it's kind of a gamble. Generally the things they don't have, are for one of our houses that is super old. I've been an ace rewards member for probably close to 20 years. I'm constantly getting discounts via the app and coupons sent through the mail, and I've also been able to compound all of my rewards points, with other special offers. One time I came in here and I bought $40 worth of stuff, and with all the discounts, and knocked it down to just under 13 bucks! As long as I continue to live in the area, I'll be continuing my regular visits at this Ace hardware! ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.

The best hardware store!…read more Sometimes I can find the apecial things I need that NONE of the big box stores stock, like 36" watter supply lines for a bathroom sink! That staff is always on point, helpful, greet you, the whole nine yards of customer service. They have that down to a science. I try to go here and support the local ownership, and the pies are magnificent. Online ordering for delivery or pickup is polished and fast. Bix box stores, take note.

I want to call out Matthew Olsen for his fabulous support…read more Back in May, Stihl was running a "free battery deal with specific purchases. The details were confusing an complicated but the folks in the tool department and the store manager did the best the could. In the end, I had to register my battery with Stihl. They were supposed to send me my free battery in 6-8 weeks; they didn't. As a matter of fact, Stihl blew me off and said I needed to go back to Mountain Hardware. I reached out to Matthew. Despite the Stihl web page saying Stihl was supposed to send the battery, Matthew took care of me and aid he would deal with Stihl. It's a 25 minute drive, past two other hardware stores, to go to Mountain Hardware but, Mountain Hardware has the products and the people that make it worth the drive. Thanks Matthew.

I really appreciate the service I received last year while purchasing my sandals. The woman helping in the shoe department was extremely helpful and friendly, and guided me to the appropriate pair of sandals. It's been a year so she made a positive lasting impression. This year I picked up a hat with good coverage for my son's. Along with some souvenirs, my son wanted to bring home for his friends (Truckee stickers). Besides my positive experience, the store seems to have just about everything from grills, too fishing gear amongst other things that you would carry an Ace Hardware store. They also had a nice varying selection of said categories. At the checkout counter there was a younger girl who welcomed me and ready to answer questions, I bought my hat, and I was on my way. Thanks for the consistency.

It's a great place. I'm also impressed by Woodford that they still make the replacement parts.

I come and and the guy rings the bell for will call. Wait 5 minutes and no one comes. Ring again. Someone comes. He spent 10 minutes trying to find my order and couldn't. Then I had to wait 15 minutes in line and then someone wrote up my order and I went to pay for it. They told me I had to drive somewhere a few blocks away to pick up my items. Fine. I did that. And I get there and they say they are out of stock of 3 of my four items. Why did they just sell me out of stock items and not tell me. Now I have to call on the phone and convince them I didn't actually get the three items I paid for and they need to credit my card. I didn't have the time to drive 2 blocks and back wait in line again. Update: they don't take phone calls on the weekend, even though they are open. !!?! And all of this took an hour, which should have taken less than 5 minutes and completely messed up my whole day of scheduled events.

To be honest, this locations seems to have a lot of issues, especially with sanitation…read more I visited to get some parts for my toilet which they had in stock. It took a second to find as toilet repair is next to new toilets and separate from plumbing which makes sense. The service wasn't great, no employee ever spoke to me the entire visit, but I also didn't seek out any assistance and don't blame them for going about their work. However, I noticed a lot of birds chirping and flying around inside and a few products and places inside were covered in bird poop. I suppose this is an expected hazard when running a Home Depot, and I decided to go get some firewood and bird seed for my back yard. Outside the firewood and most of the products in the garden sections are severely weathered, worn, and are completely covered in bird droppings and seemed pretty disgusting. I decided to skip buying anything outside and went inside to get bird seed. When I approached the bird seed you could hear loud squeaking and I saw 3-4 mice eating all the bird food and jumping in between the racks. The bags had holes and there was seed and rodent droppings everywhere. I tried to see if maybe there was an untouched bag at the bottom but the entire inventory was also covered in rodent urine. Pretty disgusted, I decided to just buy the toilet parts and leave. There is no hand sanitizer anywhere and I stead of trying to go to the restroom to wash my hands I paid and left and got some sanitizer from my car. To be honest, this experience has definitely affected whether or not I would return, I probably won't until there is a bit better quality control with products and sanitation. The prices are good and the customer service is par for the course. They installed a new self checkout area which comes with more work for you and reduced staffing, but the products and quality has taken a nosedive.
