    Excellent advice and products. Especially the paint department and stocking General Finishes.

    This store is pretty awesome! It is like a Home Depot. It is very clean and organized. I really liked how they had the different tool brands very color coordinated! And throughout the store they had some pretty cool items! I also liked the old country design inside and out, it kind of reminded me of knots The only downside was the customer service at the register. My boyfriend was trying to buy a electric hand tool that had a big sign that said $99 and at the register it rang up $199. We let her know the sale price and she asked us oh was it a Friday frenzy? And I had never been to that store and I was confused and so my first thought was that they were already tagging sale prices for the time for the next day and I asked if she can honor the price and was a bit hesitant to call a manager so instead we just decided to not take the item. I would have liked if she would've better explained the way that sale worked instead of asking us the customer but now I know for next time I go to Check what day the sales are for. The item that I wanted was a Friday frenzy at that time and now it's Friday sale is an everyday sale!

    Disappointed with a Service (ISRAEL VAZQUEZ-COR). I spent thousands of dollars this summer having my outdoor patio build. All material from Ganahl lumber. I decided to go in myself and purchase one of the last items (Gabel plate) I wanted. It's true when they say, it's hard to find good help. As Israel brought out the book or manual he couldn't answer any of my question. I specifically told him, I wanted it for a 4 x 4 and he still got it wrong. I called back to try and order the right part and was told by him it would be a 25% restocking fee. So anyone reading this, if you special ordered a part and it's wrong one it's a 25% restocking fee. I felt he initially didn't want to help me out and on top of that he ordered the wrong part. In a way it worked out, I upgrade the 4 x 4 and they put a 6 x 6 for me. Just do your research or have the contractor buy everything!

    the Handsome one is me, Louis from Ganahl is on the right.  #markhill #tustin

    I haven't shopped much at Ganahl Lumber over the years cause I looked at this as a contractors store. Recently during a remodel of our home, we were searching for glass panel doors and Ganahl Lumber was recommended to us. How pleasantly was I surprised!!! Not only do they have a very large section of lumber, they also have everything you would need for a remodel, especially some items that would be a special order at other large box chain stores. Louis Avila in the Door department made shopping very easy. although I didn't know all the terms, he understood the application and the additional parts I would need for the installation. Here's the best part... I ordered on a Monday, and the doors were in the very next day. Everyone was very friendly, extremely knowledgeable and patient.

    Picking up more lumber!

He abruptly told me he had never heard of the product I was looking for saying he had sold lots of room a.c. and never heard of a saddleback unit. When I approach him he was in another department. When I started to look on my phone Lowe's app to show him, he turned away and said "when you find it I'll be over there". So I went into his area where he was helping another customer. I waited for quite a while. When another customer approached with a request for help with a large appliance he radioed for someone else to help me. When he walked away with the new customers, I waited for a while then left the area. I walked back to see his name tag when Hodges was pointed to me. I thanked Hodges and told him I would be going elsewhere. On exiting the store I saw Collette at a register and told her how I felt. She helped another customer when I told her I would wait for her attention. I didn't want someone else to wait for attention. Collette and Hodges both listened to my story and assured me that Austin was not a new employee and his behavior was not normal for him. Lynda in customer service was very helpful when I was told the wrong location for the product I was looking for by another employee in customer service. Hodges knew the product I was looking for and Collette was apologetic for my experience.

    I would like to take a moment to recognize a true gem at the Home Depot store on Ontario Avenue…read more I needed to rent a truck unexpectedly because some of the items I purchased would not fit in my own vehicle. Since I had not made an advance reservation, the Pro Desk suggested that I check with the Tool Rental department. As soon as I arrived, I was warmly greeted by a gentleman named Allen. He asked a few routine questions, including whether I had reserved a truck in advance, and then personally took the time to walk all the way to the parking lot to check the availability. He returned with a smile and happily informed me that there was a flatbed truck available. Since I had never rented a truck from this location before, he politely requested my ID and completed the verification process, which I completely understood and appreciated. He also humbly asked whether I had anything to secure the load. When I told him I did not, he kindly showed me where I could purchase tie-down straps. Throughout our conversation, Allen explained everything clearly, including the rental rates, timing, and insurance options. He was courteous, patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely humble. Within just a few minutes, he completed the paperwork, inspected the truck with me, thoroughly explained the rental process, and handed me the keys. I have rented vehicles from many places over the years, but I have rarely encountered someone with the professionalism and outstanding customer service that Allen demonstrated. His positive attitude and willingness to go above and beyond made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. Home Depot should be proud to have an employee like Allen. His leadership qualities, knowledge, and dedication to helping customers truly stand out. Please pass along my sincere appreciation to his manager. Employees like Allen are the reason customers keep coming back, and I believe he deserves recognition and consideration for future leadership opportunities. Thanks Allen.

    I had an extremely disappointing experience at Home Depot. While I was parked in the Pro section, a…read moreshopping cart rolled from the area near the registers and struck my brand-new 2026 Chevrolet Silverado. To make matters worse, employees inside laughed instead of taking the situation seriously or attempting to help. I immediately asked management to preserve the security footage, believing the incident would be handled fairly. Instead, I was later informed by Home Depot's insurance company that they would not be covering the damage because they claimed another customer had left the cart unattended. Whether the cart was left by a customer or not, shopping carts are on Home Depot's property, and I expected much better customer service and accountability. The lack of concern shown by the employees after the incident was just as disappointing as the denial of my claim. I've spent a significant amount of money at Home Depot over the years, but this experience has seriously damaged my trust in the company. If something goes wrong on their property, don't expect them to stand behind you or treat you like a valued customer.

I am not a professional so when it comes to home improvements that are easy, I come here to buy some tools and also talk to staff on getting their input on my home projects. I like coming here because it isn't as intimidating as Home Deport where they have a larger store and tons of items to look through. Here, it is small enough and easy enough for me to shop and find my own goodies. The store stocks a wide variety of top items like automotive tools, power tools, welding gear, generators, and hand tool sets -- all at competitive prices that help you save on projects big and small. The staff I interacted with were friendly and offered helpful suggestions when I had questions about specific tools and which ones to use for my home improvement project which made shopping easier. Inventory can be different from various Harbor Freight locations, so it is good to call ahead of time if you know exactly which tool you are looking for. It also helps when they have some good deals on the weekends. Last week it was a free item with purchase and this week it's a free bucket also with a purchase. Overall, good experience. If you register your phone number with them, they will record your purchase with your nunber so if you don't have your receipt for a return, they can look it up based on your phone number.
