Terry, a paint expert there, is similarly helpful, and always has useful hints and tips to make the job go easier. The product is always quality. Benjamin Moore has the best coverage, resiliency, depth, and range of color in my opinion. What I like most about this particular location is that they are glad to mix the paint ahead of time if you call before you head down (as long as you are a returning customer and they have you in their computer). They also keep a log of your purchases, making it easier to track color selections (which sounds easier than it really is, trust me). Overall, great location, good people, and great customer experience.

I needed some touch up paint, hoping to use the original can for a match. It's over 20 years old,…read moreso the paint inside was useless. There were some drips of paint on the outside label so I thought I would see if that was enough for a color match. I didn't want to take a square off the wall itself, if I could avoid it. I went to Benjamin Moore first because that was the brand. I was told they take 24 hours to color match and I probably didn't have enough of a sample on the can's label. Perfectly pleasant sales associate, but I didn't want to wait a day. I decided to go to my local Lafayette Kelly Moore. I've got to tell you that the manager, Renee, was so nice! I asked her how long a color match would take and she said since there were a couple of jobs ahead of me, it would be 2 hours. Not bad! I showed her my sorry can of paint and she confirmed that it wasn't enough of a sample to color match. I told her I was just going to pick a match from their sample wall. Before I could take a step, Renee volunteered to take a scan for me and see if she came up with anything. In just a minute she had a computer suggested match. I was so glad! I was walking out of the store within 10 minutes with a fresh gallon of Kelly Moore and it looked perfect on my wall. I really appreciated Renee's knowledge and patience. She was very proactive in assisting me for just one little can of paint.

They have a huge selection of big area rugs, with a lot of discounted brands. The staff helpfully rolled all of its 8 by 10 feet area and left it by the cashier for me to pickup after I was done shopping. Their kitchen and pillow section were especially well stocked. Some of the furniture and shelving units could've been better quality and more organized rather than scattered throughout the store, but any HomeGoods frequenteer would be walking around anyway. This store is a bit out of the way for me, but if I ever need a rug again I will be sure to come back.
