I was excited to find a local store that carried Benjamin Moore Paints. When I went in, unlike…read moreother reviewers, the employee there was friendly and helpful. The store itself has a small but good variety of items for home improvement. But I think this is just a supply store for local contractors? Several contractors came in and out with what looked like a bulk order. But when I looked around NOTHING in the store was priced out. When I asked where the prices were on everything they said "The owner asked them not to price anything because the prices change every day." Yikes. Incredibly sketchy.

I wanted some Benjamin Moore paint and I didn't want to go to the local TrueValue because they tend to be overpriced and I like supporting local businesses. I was really impressed with how knowledgeable, honest and attentive the staff was. One of the guys helped me pick out some samples and steered me towards a more affordable sample option since I was getting so many colors! He certainly didn't have to do that, but I was so thrilled that he was so honest about saving a few bucks. I will absolutely be back to Kirshon for more paint and painting advice. If you can get there, I would recommend it over one of the major chains.

However, the pricing is extremely high compared to some other big box stores or ACE hardware locations outside of the city. I highly recommend using their order online for in store pickup for the best pricing since the store will follow the online pricing vs the shelf sticker price. Online orders come with a paper bag that has a handle which makes it nice and easy to carry out. There are two floors to the store, with the majority of home improvement things being on the lower level.
