In less than 30 minutes, I'm in and out of their store knowing that I purchased what I need and when it will be delivered -- and every board arrives straight and is of first quality. I can't foresee any reason I'd consider shopping anywhere else. Highly recommended.

I wrote an email asking for a specific piece of siding with specific dimensions in hardiplank…read moreinstead of masonite., and got a response that said "we have all the standard sizes of hardieplank in stock now" from Dean Apparently it was MY mistake to take that as an affirmative response, because when I drove an hour out of my way to go pick up the board with those dimensions they told me that they only has hardieboard not hardieplank, that it would never work in place of masonite, they didn't have that size in wood either and when I showed them their own email from an hour previous Dean raised his voice and said "I said Standard Sizes!" Apparently he couldn't be bothered to read two whole sentences of email and only read the one half of the word "hardie" and I was supposed to understand that he had disregarded the rest of it. Listen: Maybe if you are a builder or something that is going to buy 2000 board feet they will give you the time of day. But even then I wouldn't want to support their dishonesty. As an individual: Avoid!

If you need "real wood", this is the only spot for you. They have all of your wood working lumber…read moreneeds. This is not your big-box retail store with 4 sides planned smooth. You need to have the equipment to mill your own lumber for your needs: planer, jointer, etc. The staff here is fantastic and the selection is over the top. You need to know how to go thru their process as it is not intuitive. If you want to be seen as a "local", here's what you need to know. Go to the front desk and tell them what kind of lumber you need. They will make an estimate of board feet, but it doesn't matter. Then they will give you a pick ticket. Go into the warehouse and find someone to help. They are all great. They will get a forklift and bring out the wood type you want. If you don't have a tape measure (bring one to look like you know what you are doing), they have plenty. They sort thru the stacks to the sizes you want. Then pick thru to find that beautiful piece at the sizes you want. Then the warehouse guy writes the board feet on the pick ticket. Back to the front and wait in line at the counter again. Usually not a long deal unless the person in front of you gets to be too chatty. They ring you up and you pay. Finally, get in your truck and go to the back of the warehouse and they may or may not help you load it. If it is small and you can't get someone to give you eye contact, just load it up yourself.

The selection and service are unbeatable. As a traveling carpenter, I've been to hardwood suppliers…read moreacross 6 states and this is the best one I've had the pleasure of working with. Their selection of available plywood is unlike anything I've ever seen before with every option of hardwood veneer, core, thickness and finish, including some exclusives that only they sell. Whatever they don't have in stock they can easily procure for you. Cabinet and drawer hardware, specialty tools and router bits, screws, edge-banding and glue; I've gotten it all from Dakota and never been disappointed.

Surprise I know, but I really didn't want to go 30 minutes when this is so close. Arrived and searched out to find the owner/cashier. Hardened, but funny guy. Liked him and super efficient. Outside the loading guy was funny and helpful even though his co worker left him with a chore. But the product. That was mighty weak. His co worker had dug thru the lumber to find some good lumber the size the customer asked and the carnage was everywhere. We just went to the stack that was the "freshest" they had. I wasn't picky. I just needed some studs cause I ran out. Wow! Good thing I didn't care. Provably 50 cents+ more per bird and maybe 25% quality(if you ever collected coins and played with grading them, you'll get the "quality drives price" equation). I don't think I'll do that again unless I'm even more desperate. Really want to give them my business and would have no problems buying other stuff. I'm just bummed I won't get lumber at the local lumber spot.

We had a custom piece built from mesquite and we couldn't be happier with the outcome and process…read more We had been searching for months before deciding to get exactly what we wanted built to our specifications. The price was a concern but it was very reasonable, ready within 2 weeks and exactly what we had envisioned. People that visit our house always compliment us on it and ask where it came from and we proudly tell them about Southwest. If you want a unique piece of furniture from flooring to tables or countertops, I highly recommend them.

It arrived and was beautiful: alas, there was a deep scratch, first noticed by the delivery team. They took the table back where it was completely refinished and returned to me rapidly. It is breathtaking & looks so Hill Country compatible. Kyle Kimborough managed the job with great attention to detail & proper shaping. I give this place the highest marks for professional knowledge and fair pricing. If you order a custom table, large or small, I promise you will be delighted with the result.

I do find their clothing to have frequent sales making their prices competitive.

The employees are always friendly and helpful.

That…read moreparticular shelf was in a shambles and I had to go thru several diffferent Ubolts as they were all mixed up, but that is not what my complaint is. When I found the items I needed I headed to to register, where I found one female cashier behind a register with a customer and their was obviously a problem with his transaction. There was also a tall male employee standing behind this cashier. There was a "REGISTER CLOSED" sign behind this customer's merchandise, so I went to the next register but there was no cashier there. I stood there for several minutes thinking maybe the male employee would step over and check us out. He looked at me several times as did the female cashier but NEITHER acknowledged our presence, or told us someone would be with us momentarily. Finally the male employee SLOWLY sauntered off to the clothes section. We waited several more minutes with no one even acting like we existed, then finally placed our merchandise on the counter and left. The female cashier saw this and NEVER SAID A WORD to us. There were other employees in the store as I had heard them speaking loudly in the back room. It's a sad state of affairs when an employee can't even take the time to acknowledge a customer and tell them that help would be along momentarily. From now on I will travel to the Blanco store where the employees have been trained properly.

The lower corner hidden under the plastic corner was a large forklift gash. They made me rent another U-Haul to drive 45 minutes back to return it. Instead of apologizing for their mistake they said I need to go back home to get the small plastic cap that I forgot. Their headquarters representative said I don't have to return the cap on their damaged tote but I was livid. These unapologetic and unconscientious people in dripping springs are terrible. Do not go to this location. They set 3 totes out for me and didn't bother inspecting them. How would they not notice hitting their forklift against the tank when they set these aside?

Its very clear they are passionate about making sure you get exactly what you want from your project. There's always wonderful ideas / large samples you are able to take home & check out, along with ideas wall to wall in this store! Never had a bad experience going here. And the pricing I have found for the level of quality is very well priced. I see several other reviewers were disgruntled about price but you need to keep quality in mind. Floor & Decor is a factory direct setup - so you get what you pay for in a sense. While I love their stuff, I trust the knowledge & expertise of the Tile Shop for the extra dollars. It's baffling to me how many people just don't care what the value of expertise & experience means these days...... We are in the process of a new house purchase, and need to upgrade immediately from carpet to tile and can't wait to see what we select & end up with. Thank you to the team of dedicated employees for always answering our (millions) of questions, suggesting new thoughts or directions in design to compliment what we are looking for, or simply just being there for moral support!
