best hometown hardware store there is. Staff is friendly and they've got everything you need for…read moreyour next project.

No longer a customer after over 25 years of shopping there through good and bad management. Do not…read morerent equipment from them, they will charge you for service and repairs due to previous rentals and claim you abused the equipment. I rented a Toro Dingo recently, used it three hours to grade dirt then moved four rocks, all under 300 lbs., well under the max lifting capacity of the Dingo and it started leaking hydraulic fluid all over my driveway and yard. I was told I may be responsible for the repairs, when they picked it up and that they would let me know. They let me know only by charging my credit card an additional $450. When I questioned them about it, one of the teenagers working there showed me a large piece of plastic that had been jammed into the undercarriage by a previous rental. It looked to be a piece of above ground swimming pool that was probably crushed into a dumpster with the machine. I work in commercial construction and use this type of equipment all of the time, there is no way anything I did would have caused this failure. The particular model of Dingo they rent is known on equipment forums for leaking, something I found out after the rental. My wife and I will no longer shop there in the future. We probably made purchases on average once or twice a week the last 25 years. No more. We will drive to KC, Liberty, Gladstone or St. Joe from now on, no matter what and support competing businesses. The $450 I was charged for repairs is going to buy a lot of great marketing. My wife is a local business owner since 2000 and I work around Smithville and the entire KC metro area. We will be sharing our experience with anyone local and beyond. Over the last six or seven years, we have made a point to shop there since the local alderman approved a TIF, granting a significant tax advantage to another competitive hardware store. Prior to the passage of the TIF, we opposed its approval because all local businesses should be subject to the same rules and the aldermen want to play favorites. If you need to rent equipment, go through United, Sunbelt or Home Depot, better service and they won't make you pay for previous abuse or damage.

Just happened to walk by, became curious, walked in, and hoo boy! This shop is so cool, even if…read moreyou're not into tools! The courteous staff are there to help, or let you just enjoy looking around, they must surely expect people just wanting to look at their wonderland of tools, wares, huge tool belts, and wandering through multiple floors & a very interesting basement! This is definitely another world in terms of a retail experience, and is super fun. I like tools, so that helps, but my friend doesn't, and still had a great time here. And of course, if you need tools in Kansas City, this is DEFINITELY your place! They also had plenty of retro & borderline antique tools, so if you have any older compatibility issues with any of your own gear, definitely strike up a conversation here. This was a tremendously fun albeit unexpected experience!

If I could give 10 stars I would. I'm from out of town and know nothing about tools. I'm in town…read morevisiting a friend and my husband asked me if I would go to this store and gave me a list. The guy who helped me (I didn't catch his name) was amazing. He walked around the entire store with me and carried a bucket of tools as we went down the list collecting everything. He also gave me great suggestions for tools for my husband as gifts that I could surprise him with. Super knowledgeable, super friendly, super awesome. And he carried the box to my car for me. 10/10 would go again (with another list).
