Hardware store! The one and only Wist Lumber. This store has a special place in my heart. I found…read morethis business on yelp and drove to it even though it had a completely blank page because when I called to ask for whatever it was I needed that day, they were polite, warm and prompt. I have basically been back there every other day for the last two weeks for whatever our production needs have been rather than driving back into Binghamton or hitting Home Depot on my way back to the hotel. I spend at least $60 every time I walk through the door and would rather give that to a small business. Thanks Yelp!

Big box retail didn't kill Main Street. We killed Main Street. Nobody holds a gun to our head,…read morenobody forces us to the corporate gigantor stores on 28 with parking lots for days and traffic. We believe the everyday low prices mantra, we willingly sacrifice our soul to the machine. This is all on us. We own it. And in today's second generation of Main Street destruction we sit our unhealthy selves in the comfort of our overheated homes and with a few clicks of the mouse we have a cardboard package whisking it's way to us no mind the human interaction is gone and early onset diabetes gets closer with each substitution of small cardboard box for Main Street strolling we elect to make. But no worries. Soon healthcare will be provided us for free and one more choice that we previously got to make on our own will be gone. Good on us. Want to reclaim a bit of your independence? Want to add ten years to your life and a smile to your face? Go back to Main Street. I was in need of hardware to make a few improvements for mi madre and not being from these parts thought that the big boxes had killed a local hardware option and she said oh hell no we're going to Dubben Brothers they're good people. I was all no way San Jose Main Street is dead but bc Main Street was what mama wants and what mama wants is what all the offspring should recognize as their reason for getting out of bed in the morning off we went. Dubben Bros rocks. It's been there forever! It smells like old time hardware stores are supposed to smell and while it isn't ginormous it does have a ton of stuff. Maybe three varieties of the tool you seek instead of a million but do we really need a million brands to choose between no we do not. I'd suggest if you've recently moved to the area or been there awhile but not in this particular establishment that you drop by and look around to get a sense of what's in store. So to speak. One thing you'll find for sure is an old fashioned hospitality and genuine desire to be of assistance that's hard to find on 28. No disrespect intended those who work hard in those big corporate spaces but there a worker has to serve two masters - us AND the machine. And the priority isn't necessarily in that order.

Tom is also there and gives great direction ensuring I can get in and out of the store quickly. He also will walk and often offers to help carry items back to the counter for me. Great location and close to Cold Spring Lodge. Thank you!

I've heard others complain the prices are inflated but I didn't feel that way as much of the merchandise is at a higher quality if you compare to big chain home improvement stores. Just a side note to that...I'm not a contractor but hubby is and he is familiar with what materials should cost. Prices are appropriate. Staff is friendly, helpful, and readily available.

The Canal Street Hardware Store is one of those small town hardware stores that is becoming rare…read more With the big commercial stores in almost every area these little Mom & Pop stores are going out of business. We are blessed to have this one in Oxford! They sell just about everything. From chainsaw chains, chimney parts, canning supplies, boots, lawn mowers, guns, nails, to horse feed.....they have it all covered. If you need something they don't have they will order it for you. I needed a gauge for my canner and they looked it up on the computer and showed me what was available so they could order it for me. Lowe's, Tractor Supply and WalMart are less than ten miles away and I was afraid it would cause them to go out of business. No, it hasn't seemed to hurt them. Their prices are comparable to the bigger stores not over priced like you might think. The couple who own it are in the store often and wait on you just as much as the staff. Very courteous service. If you need help a clerk or one of the owners will come to help you. If you have a question about some project you are working on, they will take the time to answer your questions and show you what you need. Someone will load your vehicle if needed. Week-end mornings this little store is usually bustling with customers. Everyone seems to know each other and it is hard to get out of there sometimes because everyone wants to talk to you. We buy all our horse feed there every month and the price is very fair and about the same as other places. The feed we buy is manufactured in a town, Afton not that far away. So it is always very fresh and our girls love it and thrive on it. I highly recommend shopping here. If you are in the mood for a drive this little store is worth every mile!
