I have been looking to get a new smoker and when I go to the big box stores I asked questions and only heard things like this isn't my department or that's a good question I will have to look into it. Bill was not only able to answer my questions but educated me on the differences between all the Tragers i was looking at and helped me decide on the ironwood XL which i have been very happy with. I will always help out a small local business and this one is a gem.

This is definitely a throwback Main Street hardware store! Not very many of these places survive…read morewhen a large chain like ACE comes to town. Actually there is one in this small, beautiful town! It's a testament to the local home folks for supporting their hometown businesses! I went in there looking for some cloth hand towels. The very kind and helpful lady in charge told me they didn't have any. That was a bit of a surprise to me because they seemed to have an abundance of everything! Not only hardware but also a huge selection of yard art and other display pieces. Like I said; this place is most definitely a throwback in time and its unusual! Even though they didn't have what I needed ; I loved the experience! Any person my age who remembers the way things were in the past should visit not only this place but the entire Main Street of Rutherfordton, N.C. ! It's a thriving small town with much to offer.

From the moment you walk in, it feels like you took a step back in time- in the best of ways…read more Wooden floors and a mixture of practical items and lovely gifts greet you at first glance. This store is broken up into two big rooms. The one towards the left is more upscale gift like. You will find lotions, cards, kitchen gadgets and candles/soaps. While it is a bit pricey, I love the local and well curated feel. They have nice candies and snacks from Asheville and some great natural products. Some old fashioned soda in the back for hot summer days. The right side is more your everyday stuff and traditional general store items. You will find actual hardware, command strips, soil, birdseed and leaning supplies. The front has cute games and books. Again, check the prices as some are quite fair (I got birdseed and a birdfeeder for the cat that costs similar to Amazon prices) but some can be high. Other random info- They also do handiwork and make key copies. That's nifty. You can become a member and get some discounts if you wish (it's free). The workers are super friendly and more than willing to help. Street parking.
