The staff is knowledgeable and willing to help however they can. They actually pick up their phone so you can call in advance to confirm they have what you need. Anytime I need something for a home repair I instantly think of Kim's Hardware. They have the majority of what you need for basic repairs. They also have a large selection of luggage (big and small). They even offer window screen repair services. I needed to get my screens replaced for a few years and I finally visited Kim's Hardware and they were able to make the repairs in a few days. They also made sure the screen color remained the approved HOA color. My screen repair was reasonably priced.

Not sure why I've been so loyal to home depot since moving to Chicago a few years back, but in general I do find Menard's prices to be slightly cheaper than home depot. Another point worth mentioning is their propane refills/exchange are only $15. By far the cheapest I've seen in the Lincoln Park area. 'Save big money at...' You know how it goes.

I was about to leave when I went to checkout to ask a cashier about online versus in-store. Ms Fontella was aware of units in the back of the store and by the commercial section. We walked all the way back, no luck. Luckily an opened box of the brand name I saw on Home Depot's site was under the commercial units. She offered $10 off a $49 unit and said I should hold on to the receipt in case there's a problem. DEAL! Home Depot leadership, please share my appreciation with her. Your team should hear about positive review too! Thank you Ms, Fontella You made my day since this humidifier will help my son's dry skin.

Unfortunately I'm still having issues with Home Depot. You can find my review on here from January…read moreof 2025. My orders were lost, they refused to deliver my appliances over 3 times once on-site, Home Depot's delivery partners attempted to extort me for money under the table. Once I left that review, I did have someone from the executive team reach out to me to resolve that issue in the form ensuring my order was actually delivered and of a tiny fraction off the cost of the amount I paid for the appliances. However, I've had more issues recently, and while I've attempted to reach out to executive level for assistance, I was emailed back, "Online Executive Escalations team receives executive-level or higher internal case transfers and does not handle inbound customer support requests" before being told to reach out to customer service, which is completely useless and something I've tried to do many times. I placed my original cabinetry order in 2024. Due to dishonest contractors who abandoned my project and left my home in demo-stage (totally uninhabitable), I was unable to receive my order until about June of 2025 from Home Depot, as I had nowhere for it to go. This was not Home Depot's fault. However, now that I was able to receive the order and have it installed, we now see that we are missing components (large wood panels, at that) which I now have to pay for again, because the order is too old to honor the return/replacement policy. We are also unable to return pieces that were not used or that were ordered by the designer by mistake, due to the age of the order. Some glass pieces also came shattered, which took about 2 months to replace. I also want to make it clear that I don't keep "going back" to a place that handles business poorly. These are orders from one home project that have spanned over 2 years now, and just have yet to be resolved. The issues go on: The order expediter has ignored my emails and gives me 2-word responses when I send multiple questions that have now gone unanswered for over a month, I was told by the countertop factory rep that Home Depot keeps experiencing "IT" issues, so they're unsure how to tell me if my orders are actually confirmed or not, my counters have been backordered but I've not heard any updates from anyone despite my reaching out multiple times both to Home Depot and Countertop Factory through HD, they're seeing balances owed on my profile when I've paid in full 2024, I still don't know if the designer has found the missing panels that need to be re-ordered, I still don't know if my counter order is confirmed, I was charged for multiple cabinets and multiple sink installations but still not refunded. I also work in retail, and I understand that it can be difficult to provide customers with a resolution sometimes. But I really feel that no one has cared enough to even try and put a little effort in, even just as far as communication. The only person who has been sweet throughout is my designer, Marva. As far as I'm concerned, she's the one diamond they have at that location. There's only so much she can do for us without executive assistance. I strongly feel that due to the extenuating circumstances as well as the extremely poor experiences I've had at Home Depot since beginning these projects in 2024, they should be doing way more than a couple hundred dollars refunded. Especially with my orders that have been in the thousands. I'd like to see a better amount in compensation, to be able to return untouched components that were not needed, as well as the missing components of my orders being shipped to me at no additional charge. I've been ignored, forgotten, left to try to fix your errors on my own and have been extorted by your third-party services. Come on, Home Depot. Prove to me that you're going to make this right the way you should. As of Feb 7th, 2026 no one from Home Depot has reached out to me despite my opening a "ticket." The expediter J, finally said the missing glass panel was ready for pick up. She would not have told me it was there if I never continued to ask, and it's probably been there waiting. I went to customer service, told the woman there that I was picking up the last glass panel replacement for my cabinetry because J said it was ready. She asked if I had an order number and I said no [there was no order number as the store placed this on my behalf because they broke the original]. She laughed at me flat out and called J over the store phone to tell her I was here. On the phone J asked the lady, "what does he want" and she flatly repeated to me "what do you want?" in a rude tone, AS IF 1) I didn't just tell her what I was here for and 2) J didn't just email me to come in for the glass panel. They both made me feel humiliated even though I didn't cause any of this. J also never initiated the refund check I was owed, that I confirmed with her 3 weeks ago. Now I need to wait longer and have many other unresolved issues.
