Someone always asks if they can help me find something the minute I walk in and if I say no, I'm left to fend for myself no problem. They can be a bit pricey for bigger things, like the drill my fiancé bought, but they are really reasonably priced for most other things. I know they can paint match and have picked up small bottles and cans for small projects. This a great neighborhood spot and I stop in often. Happy to know they have nearly anything I could need for projects big or small!!

I live in the neighborhood and have shopped here for ten years but I'm done. I needed to replace a…read moreburned-out $5 300W halogen lightbulb. I came here to pick one up a few days ago and was advised instead to buy a 150W bulb because 300W would be too bright. Brought it home, installed it, and it didn't work. No big deal. So I came back to return it today - in the middle of my workday, because their hours are so restricted. In a normal store, you just switch out the defective bulb; quick and dirty. Not here - the clerk's aggressive line of questioning made clear he didn't trust me in the least. Clerk: How do you know the bulb doesn't work if you didn't open the package? Me: The package is open - see? You just didn't see where I tore it open. Clerk: Did you touch the bulb when you were installing it? Me: No, I wore gloves like you're supposed to do. [Clerk pulls out a massive magnifying glass to read the fine print on the back of the package.] Clerk: Aha! It says here, 'Do not install if the lamp is hot.' Was your lamp hot? Me: No. I was replacing a bulb that burned out days ago and the lamp hadn't been used. [Clerk walks to a shelf and picks up a utility light that uses a similar bulb. He spends several minutes opening it up but doesn't test the defective bulb in it. He pulls out the 500W bulb that was packaged with the utility light.] Clerk: Do you just want to take this bulb? Me: No, that's a 500W bulb and my light is a 300W light. Clerk (triumphantly): What? Then why'd you buy a 150W bulb? (Waves defective bulb in the air.) Me: Because when I bought it the guy here, at this hardware store, told me to buy it. I was following the advice of your staff. [Clerk glares at me.] So I said forget it, I just came here to replace a $5 bulb, not lose half my workday and get interrogated to boot. From now on I'm buying my hardware at Home Depot or Amazon. Say what you will about supporting the spunky little local stores - I can't deal with this again.

Been going to Garber's for nearly 30 years, since they had their old storefront on 8th Avenue. This…read moreis the only hardware store in the area that still carries building, electrical, and plumbing supplies for every repair you can think of. I've been in other stores where they didn't even know the difference between a sheet metal screw and a wood screw, and they only carry one brand of any item. As for reviews below that say the proprietors are dismissive to women -- this couldn't be more wrong! From the first time I was in there, I was spoken to with respect, treated like a knowledgeable customer instead of talked down to by someone assuming I knew nothing. This is one of the reasons I go there instead of anywhere else -- no mansplaining. Garber's is a true, old-style hardware store, with generations of family behind the counter, everything you could possibly need to fix up your house or apartment (or a promise to order it if they don't have it), and yes, even a curmudgeon or two. So what? They're not obsequious, but they are very helpful -- and busy with tradespeople, which tells you everything you need to know about how good they are.
