I only needed one thing but I was able to find it here! The clerk at the front also gave me tips on how to use the product, which I appreciate. They allow you to use Apple Pay and there is no "minimum." This will be my preferred hardware store going forward. read more

I was here the day before to buy sink stopper & they said I can bring it if it doesn't fit. I brought two today & they exchanged one with other size & gave me some changes back since there is no other size I was looking for. He was very kind!! It's is small amount of money but his kindness makes me feel I want to buy all my stuff here:) Thank you!!! read more

This is a neat little neighborhood hardware store that I have visited on a few occasions for odds and ends. The staff is always generally friendly and helpful. The store is rather narrow and tight, with a wishbone shape where it branches off into two aisles as you approach the back. read more

Great selection, good prices, owner knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Only downside is they get swamped and you can't always get them on the phone to check stock. read more

My mother has been sending me to this hardware store since I was a pre-teen. They've always been personable and able to answer any and every question I've had. Although, it's a cozy spot they have everything you could possibly need for your diy home repairs and needs. The prices are always reasonable and it's the only place I'll go to have copies of my keys made. Need a fragranced floor cleaner? No problem! They have that too! There's no need to go to a big box hardware store chain when you have family run businesses in your neighborhood that strive to service you, the customer, as opposed to the tool of the moment. An added bonus is the intimate level of customer service you receive by virtue of being a loyal customer... or in my case a longtime customer who's been on hiatus but has put together a string of returning visits while sprucing up a bit. Absolutely a go to destination; there should be more! read more

A small store but they have absolutely everything. The owner is friendly and very helpful. My local go-to hardware store from now on.

Definitely the best hardware store I've been to in this area. I've gone a few times to get things here and there for my apartment. It's surprisingly large on the inside, and they've always had everything I needed. The prices are very good for Manhattan, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. read more

This is a shockingly large hardware store so in the words of Sweet Dee "It really has an a$$ on it". The guys running it are super friendly and seem to really enjoy helping customers which is a great change from the Home depot that I once lived near. We just needed keys so in the 10 minutes waiting for the few sets we ordered, we go to explore. They really do have tons of stuff including random kitchen items you may not think you need until you see it. Pots, pans, rice cookers, Brita filters, then of course the usual tools, paint and spackle. Anyway, we ended with a conversation with the guy behind the counter where he even mentioned they have a locksmith if we ever need it. I've yet to lock myself out but it is nice to know they are available. Now I know where I need to go if i ever have a DIY that I need to accomplish. read more

Very helpful and inexpensive with a great selection. I went primarily for key duplicates and Darwin behind the counter was incredibly friendly and helpful.
