This store has just about everything one would need. Great owners and a super cool old school feel to it. Worth a trip just to check it out been a customer since the 80's read more

This place is a do-not-miss. How long has it been since you've visited a real, old-fashioned, hardware and variety store with personal service thrown in? The selection here is phenomenal - you'll find things you never knew existed and didn't know you need until you spot them. The owners are friendly and gracious, and the store has been in their family for generations. It's well worth the stop just for the charm and the incredible selection. Local trail maps? They have them. Oilcloth? They have it by the yard. Toys? Yes. Decorative pottery and graniteware? You bet. Screws, nuts, and bolts? Yes, and the owners will even help you fabricate whatever you need to fix your what-have-you. I love, love, love this store, and you will, too! read more

Great store! Such a gem.. An old fashioned variety and hardware store with everything!! Housewares, decorations, yard stuff, hardware stuff, toys, doodads, and things you would never know you needed! My favorite part is the old wooden floors that bring such nostalgia.. Small business owners . Such a fun outing !! Much more fun than Home Depot . read more

For quick home hardware and garden supplies this is a great family run business. We love the friendly staff and we can usually find what we need to fix, or improve our home. read more

If you want it. Carmichael's got it, and will go get it for you in a couple of minutes. This store keeps the Snoqualmie area homes functioning. read more

Stopped by here while touring Western Washington to pick up a part I needed. Within a second they new what I needed and were able to help me out. Totally friendly, totally helpful, totally charming place that is full of stuff you would expect from a small town hardware store. I could have easily stopped by one of the big box stores and muddled my way around and maybe saved 10 cents, but wasted an hour. I'm really glad I chose these guys, and am really sad I don't live nearby to get the service they gave me on my vacation. Not really a place for "hands on" toddlers though, even though they have a ton of cool toys. read more

On a beautiful sunny Father's Day, I wandered into here with the family on the whims of my wife, who loves the little trinkets that they have at old-fashioned hardware stores. And this one has them in spades. We did end up buying a few things. I found one of those tennis-racket-like bug zappers for about $16. My wife bought a new egg timer since the electronic timer on our stove no longer makes noise. My daughter bought a cool wooden pen with an owl carved in it, swearing she would do her homework willingly and energetically with it this fall. My son picked out a battery-powered hand-held fan that also sprays mist. And we also bought a bottle opener since ours at home is broken. So, net/net, for about $30, I'm getting: * Bugs zapped * Food no longer burned * Daughter's homework done * Cooled off on hot days this summer * Beers opened Best. Store. Ever. read more

This is the best store ever. The owners have everything you need plus great gifts. I always go there before heading to the larger chains

Store has hardware basics as well as a large selection of home decor items. The home decor items are unique with funny signs, kitchenware, cottage and shabby chic style decor. Salespeople are always friendly and helpful. They are usually open on holidays for that plumbing emergency. They also allow dogs in the stores. It would be OK with a small dog but a large dog may knock a few things off the aisles. read more

This place is the best! Not only do they have a massive variety of tools and hardware, they offer tailored advice and recommendations for problems you might have. I came into the store having no idea how I might address an emergency with my roof that needed to be patched that day. The couple (whom I believe own the store) took care of me and offered a variety of recommendations and options they thought might work. I left with multiple options to try and feeling much more prepared to fix the problem. Will absolutely be shopping here again rather than going to a larger hardware chain. read more

This place has everything you could ever imagine. The staff is friendly and helpful as well. I always find something here to fit exactly what I'm looking for. It's a must if you're stopping through. read more

Cute store. Helpful staff. Deep selection of nuts and bolts if needed. Not Home Depot prices but can solve almost any Hardware need you have and knowledgeable. Nice offering of home decor gifts. Some unique things. Lucky to have them in the valley. read more

I couldn't believe it when I notice that I am the FIRST one to write a review for Carmichael's! This is certainly one of the last great family run small hardware stores in the region and THE BEST! They wrote the book on customer service! Don't let the small space fool you! I have been there about 20 times over the past 5 years and have NEVER come away empty handed! Always a smile and always friendly! Love it! read more

I was out of Washington State for over four years. When I returned and needed supplies I went to my usual and local hardware store, "Carmichael's True Value". As soon as I walked in the door I was greeted and by name. I was impressed to have someone remember me after so many years. . What I like about Carmichael's is the smiles and happy friendly service. They are always ready to help and if it is something unique you need and live in the valley, be sure to check out Carmichael's True Value hardware store. You just may save yourself a lot of gas and have a warm and friendly conversation when you get there read more

From the moment you open the door you know you are in a real hardware store not one of those box stores. This place reminds me of trips to the hardware store as a kid with my father. Those are very good memories. They have a good selection for a store their size and will be my first stop for all my hardware needs. read more

I always love visiting Carmichael's True Value. It reminds me of the hardware store I went to as a kid, with the old wood floors and aisles and aisles of cool stuff. I met the owner tonight and she was incredibly helpful. Stop by and you're likely to find pretty much anything you need. And you'll be supporting a great local business. read more

Often I find myself needing to go to a hardware store. Only the largest one is at least a fifteen-minute drive away. So it's much more convenient for me to visit Carmichael's--only a five-minute drive. Convenience isn't the only reason I like to patronize Carmichael's. I receive prompt attention with a smile and eagerness to serve. That service has included helping me determine which product I need, fixing a lamp, and even adding oil to my car! My young girls enjoy going to Carmichael's, too, because of its novelty merchandise. Oh, and Carmichael's pricing is great as well! In such modern times, it's comforting to visit a place that still has old fashioned and small town service and appeal. read more

I love this place. It is a real old fashioned hardware store with real old fashioned customer service. The owner's always remember you by your name and go out of their way to help you find what you need. There are a lot of home decor items and hard to find unique gift items as well. You will never get this kind of experience in a big box store. I always try Carmichael's first before going anywhere else. read more

Love this place whether I'm buying a plunger, a birthday card or charming decor for the house. There's nothing they don't have and the staff is always friendly and helpful. One of the best places to visit in historic downtown Snoqualmie. read more

SO HELPFUL!!! Really nice people that will help you with any project. I have gone in with plumbing questions and all sorts of home improvement needs and they are always helpful. When I go to Home Depot, the customer service always turn and walk away when they see I have a question, At Carmichael's, they treat you like you matter. They have a good supply and always seem to come up with exactly what I need. Good Prices. I would recommend over any local hardware store and definitely over home depot. They care about their business and want to help you. It is rare today to have such helpful people and such a good store. read more

Everything Under the Sun tucked into the Small Space, Amazing Customer Service! This is my first stop for any hardware needs. From small, one-piece fasteners to home repair to household goods, it is incredible to see how they stuff so much into this space. Everytime I think there is no way they will have what I need and that I will need to drive to a larger store, I am pleasantly surprised to find out they DO have what I need. You can buy a single screw there, which you cannot do at Home Depot or Lowe's. It is truly an old-school hardware store with long-time owners and staff who know their stuff. They greet me every single time I walk in and if I don't have time for the pleasure of walking the aisles, I just tell them what I need and they walk me right there. The old-fashioned toy section is a favorite of my kids. They also support the community in a variety of ways. Great local business. Love this place. read more

These guys have everything and they know exactly where it is. Save yourself a trip all the way back into issaquah and check these guys out!

The best place to find most things for your home. The staff is always on hand to help find whatever your project needs. Great people!

Carmichael's True Value, owner(s), and staff are as top drawer as you can get... ALWAYS greeted with a smile and are exceptionally helpful... this in addition to have always had what I needed! You will not find a better hardware store anywhere... throw in small town charm and experience a time warp to a time when customer service actually had meaning... Love this place! (I'm trying to find the 10 star rating)... read more

Okay, this place is awesome! The customer service was so attentive and they were ready to tend to all of your shopping needs. They had everything, from kickballs to nuts and bolts. At the entrance, they had a lot of great signs and other items and they instantly greeted us and asked us what we needed. When we needed baseballs, they even pumped them up! Thank you Carmichaels! I will definitely be going here again! read more

The people that work there are extremely helpful, and there is just about everything you could ever think of when it comes to inventory. Yes, it is a bit pricier than the big box stores, but the experience and supporting a small local business it worth it. I've purchased everything from flag holders to yard sale signs to board games from this store, and I'll keep going there for a long time. read more

Shopping here is like entering a time warp (in a good sense). It has the feel of a vintage hardware store and the service is excellent. If you need help with any project, their capable, friendly staff will brainstorm with you, helping you to figure things out and find the supplies you need.The owners give back to the community in many ways and deserve our local support. read more

It feels good to support local business and so far they haven't failed me once for the tools I've needed so far. Upon entering I'm always greeted by a friendly face and asked if there's something they can help me with and they lead you right to where you need to go. The store offers more than just tools. There are home décor, toys, office supplies, garden needs, etc. Great business. read more
