Perfect. After he'd helped me, I had a very nice chat with the two cashiers at the front of the store. In all, I got exactly what I needed, and was in-and-out in about 15 minutes. So, deep inventory, knowledgeable, friendly service, and pricing no worse than Amazon's (I prefer to support my local Maine neighbors, when I can, but paying a stiff premium can be daunting. Not the case here. In all, a fine store, run by good people.

The prices are very reasonable and honestly, I wouldn't have a problem paying more, just based on the fact that each time, I can get hold of a staff member that is friendly.

It really doesn't make sense to me and honestly, I don't believe their comments. I've never experienced, nor even witnessed any issues as such that would warrant a single start rating. Anyway, I'm glad that Arjays is local in Exeter and has always provided myself and several close friends with Knowledge and friendly support. Thanks Arjays management & staff! Abe

As a hospitality…read moreprofessional/consultant I have the privilege to experience hospitality at its best and worst from both the guest/customer and employee/educator perspective. My experience was as follows: I was walking around the flooring department looking for someone to assist me and was unable to find anyone. I ended up walking over to the design department and asked if there was someone in the flooring department that could help me. The response I got was incredibly rude. "I don't know- is there? I can't see over there." She did end up, making an announcement over the PA for assistance twice. And when someone in flooring did call back, they said they were with someone at the moment - which I of course would wait my turn. This designer proceeded to tell me that there was someone over there and couldn't believe that I couldn't find them. Now I know I was not in the flooring department asking another employee of a different department for assistance, but I still was no pun intended floored. Very disappointed, Home Depot. If you would ever like to hire me for training... I'm happy to share my rates with you!
