I am writing to bring to your attention the reality of working at Ace Burlington, WI, where those…read morewho truly keep the business running are ignored while mediocrity is rewarded. During my time as a cashier, I was more than just someone who rang up transactions--I built relationships with customers, made them feel valued, and went beyond my job description daily. Whether it was helping a struggling customer, looking out for the remodel crew, or creating a welcoming atmosphere that brought people back, I made an impact. And yet, management chose to dismiss that value. I was denied basic breaks due to staffing shortages while others received preferential treatment. I witnessed a culture that encouraged complacency and protected incompetence while disregarding those who actually did the work. When I advocated for myself, I was met with condescension rather than appreciation. Now, with two locations severely understaffed, I'm curious--who will step up? Who will bring the heart and dedication that I, and others like me, brought every single day? I am a Military Veteran, honored with an Army Achievement Medal, a Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal, and a NATO Medal. I am a graduate of Alverno College, multilingual, and have years of customer service and teaching experience. I am also someone who genuinely cares about people and the community. But despite all that, Ace Burlington would rather overlook real value to focus on people who do not contribute where it matters most--inside the stores, connecting with the communities that keep Ace alive. Ace prides itself on being "The Helpful Place," but when management fails to respect and retain its best employees, what kind of help is actually being provided? I hope corporate starts paying closer attention before more dedicated, hardworking employees walk out the door--taking the true magic of the store with them.

First visit: We brought in a $65 power inverter from Ace Hardware with a red cable cover that had…read morebecome detached. We took it to the "repair" guy at the back of the store. He took it in the back for a few minutes, then came back out *laughing* and said when he went to put the red cable cover back on, the black one on the other cord came off, so supposedly, he now had to shorten that one, too. $6.45 for the repair. Granted, I'm glad it wasn't more than that, but it was still more than repair was worth. Second visit: The black cable cover had become detached again. We took it to the back (repair) counter again, and the guy who waited on us *this* time ended up taking the cover completely off and slapping on some black electrical tape in its place. Do NOT come here for any electric equipment repairs!

Longtime Customer -- Cautiously Optimistic After Recent Changes…read more I've been shopping at this Richmond Ace Hardware for over 20 years. It's been a constant in the community, and I've seen it evolve--especially over the past six years with multiple ownership transitions, first to JC Licht and now back under Ace. This store is less than two minutes from my home. While I have three Home Depot locations within about 20 minutes in different directions, the convenience of Ace has always mattered. That said, convenience alone doesn't justify the premium pricing that Ace typically carries--what historically made it worthwhile was something far more valuable: exceptional service. For years, this store stood out because of its people. The staff were knowledgeable, experienced, and genuinely helpful. You could walk in with a problem--not just a product request--and leave with a solution. They knew their inventory, suggested alternatives, and often had connections to trusted local professionals if the job required more than DIY. When the store transitioned to JC Licht, I had some optimism. Their historical reputation--dating back decades--was built on strong service, quality paint products, and thoughtful integration into local hardware ecosystems. Unfortunately, my experience during that period didn't reflect that legacy. The staff lacked product knowledge, service levels declined, and pricing remained uncompetitive. The value proposition simply wasn't there. One early visit during the current transition stands out: I was looking for specific carpentry hardware, and the associate assigned to help was clearly unfamiliar with even the basics of the category. It wasn't just a lack of depth--it was a lack of fundamental understanding. That's a problem in a store that's supposed to differentiate on expertise. Now, with Ace back in control, I'm willing to give the store another chance. I recently stopped in and saw that they're undergoing a significant remodel. That's a positive signal. But ultimately, fixtures and layout won't determine success--people will. If management invests in hiring capable staff and training them well, this store can reclaim what once made it valuable: knowledgeable, solution-oriented service that justifies both the price and the proximity. I don't mind paying a bit more if it saves me time and delivers real expertise. That's the trade. Right now, the jury is still out. I'll give it another visit or two and see if the improvements go beyond the surface. M

Was talking to the manager about $700 worth of EGO batteries that are not working after one year and of course tells me I have to send it to the manufacturer. Don't buy anything that is not warranted by Ace or you will have a hard time getting your product replaced. Make sure you save all receipts because now they have new owners and the rewards program cannot duplicate my receipt so I can get this three year warranty on this battery . Now this is my problem. No one saves receipts for everything they do. More importantly Also bought two $10 bags of softener. forgot to grab them when I left because they are outside came back a couple hours later and the manager gave me a hard time about the receipt and Made. The girl that rang me up proved that I paid for them. I'm a regular Customer ridiculous way to be treated like I'm some kind of thief that would walk in there and tell them I'm stealing two bags of water softener.
