After a disastrous, month-long experience attempting to order a grill from Lowe's, we decided to…read moretry our luck with Ace. Ordering online was easy and they had exactly what we were looking for - a Weber grill with free assembly and delivery. We ordered on a Monday and delivery was expected that Wednesday - so FAST. Well, we received a call from them on Tuesday indicating that they've assembled the grill and would we like it early/that day! Yes, please! They were there within an hour or so and brought it to the patio. We should have just ordered from Ace in the first place! Lesson learned.

As a fairly petite woman, I'm no stranger to the weird nonsense one can endure when entering a traditionally male-dominated space like a hardware store or bike shop. I've had unsolicited "help" to carry a 20 lb bag of potting soil to my car. I've given a detailed description of what I'm looking for to a guy whose eyes glazed over and proceeded to guide me to something that wasn't remotely like what I needed. I've gone into stores with male partners who literally said "this is her project" and they still kept talking to him This is not the case with Bliffert. They're actually the only hardware store I've ever been to that had a woman on staff who wasn't exclusively a cashier. I was recently in with my husband, and they quickly assessed that I was the DIYer of the household and he was mostly there to sign off on paint colors. I've walked in with requests ranging from the mundane, like "I'm looking for drywall screws" to "I want to build a prop chainsaw for Halloween that is realistic enough to look cool but not so realistic that they won't let me into the bar." I've been met with enthusiastic help for all requests. And if I say "I'm just comparing options," they let me browse in peace. They cut keys like it's an art. They offer me a beer while I'm considering paint colors. They allow dogs. I can admit that some newer employees are not quite as great as the older staff. I walked in one day looking for something and the younger man at the counter had no clue where it might be or even really what I was looking for. I will say that he was interested in where I eventually found it, so at least he was trying. I've seen many of the employees since I my first visit to Bliffert in like 2013, so it's not fair to compare the new guy to the veterans who have an encyclopedic knowledge of thousands of items after years of experience.

My father's family's business, begun in the mid-1930s, in western Pennsylvania was their 14 hardware stores that slowly dissolved from 1957 to 1962 as prepackaged goods and discount stores began their rise. I began "working" as a five-year old putting bicycles together for Christmas (inverting pedals and installing handlebars - not hard), then later weighing nails from kegs, cutting cast iron pipe and glass. When I discovered Crown, my childhood memories came back quickly! A wonderful place, indeed.

I was not happy with the way things were working there and said so. Now, years later, I can honestly say that they are much more organized and kempt. That being said, there are still some issues; i.e., like going in to not find everyday items I expected; certain hose bib size, specific type duplex receptacle and in late September/Early October, they were out of a common weed control product, Weed-B-Gone. I still go here regularly, though, and find it convenient because it is so close to the house and I don't have to travel to go to a big box (Home Depot/Lowes) and deal with the crowd, parking and size of the warehouses. So, all-in-all, the store is organized now and "mostly" has what knick-knacks I want with the occasional exception.

The staff clearly enjoy being there - the banter back and forth among them always brightens my day. They are hilarious. And every time I have visited, there are one or more staff waiting right by the front door and they proactively ask how they can assist. Best example - I wanted to take advantage of a nice early November day to string Christmas lights today. The Christmas items were not yet on shelves, but the staff went into the storage and hauled out about a dozen large boxes and sorted through them to find exactly what I needed. This is the kind of hardware store that Andy Griffith would visit in Mayberry RFD.
