    I've gone to Rental Max for years. Their service has always been excellent and their equipment worked perfectly.

    Everyone knows there is only one reason to ever shop at ACE; urgent need. We are willing to pay…read moresuper retail for the convenience of getting what we need in the middle of a plumbing problem. I have been shopping at this Ace since they opened their doors 30 plus years ago, under those same rules, which i have accepted. The group of women that have run that place for years, or replacements cut from the same cloth, have always been rude, nasty, almost hostile........ALWAYS, and for NO reason. Today, as before on many occasions, i made a simple $15 purchase. In, out, no issue. Yet the simple act of checking out was i again forced to be insulted and lectured simply because the old gas bag didn't listen to my words, didn't do it right, and had to do it all over again which she didn't like.......and yes, she let me know. I'm done. I'd rather swim 30 miles to another store than set foot in there again. If you doubt my words, ask anyone that shops here....better yet read the one star reviews

I needed some L corner…read morebrackets and I decided to run over here instead of heading across the river and over to Lowes or Home Depot. The website said the items were in stock, and they were. An employee asked if I needed help finding anything, which I appreciated. The prices are a little higher here than at HD/Lowes for equivalent things (the brackets I bought here were just under $5 vs $2 and change at the other places), but it's convenient and I like that it feels more personable. For the odd project and hardware need, I don't mind paying a bit more for convenience. But if I needed more than 3 sets of brackets, I would've taken the time to head across town to save the extra cash. Sadly their popcorn machine wasn't in use while I was there, though.

I've…read morebuilt the most luxurious skyscrapers and the finest golf clubhouses all over the world, but let me tell you, what this Lowe's is doing is absolutely Tremendous.I walked into the lumber department, and it was a flawless operation, frankly. Spectacular. The two-by-fours? Perfectly straight. No bowing, no knots. Beautiful wood. I talked to the guy in the blue vest--the best people, very smart, very high energy. He cut the wood exactly to size on the first try. The managers were watching, they said, "Sir, nobody picks out drywall screws with great dignity like you." And the garden center? Phenomenal. They have the biggest, healthiest tomato plants you've ever seen. A lot of people don't know this, but getting the right plumbing fittings on the first trip is very difficult. Very rare. But at this Lowe's, you walk in, you get your copper pipes, and you walk out looking like a winner.I looked at that other home improvement warehouse down the highway--the orange one--and let me tell you, it is a total Disaster. A complete failure. A total joke! You go looking for help over there and the aisles are completely empty, very low energy. The workers are hiding in the breakroom, frankly. Their lawnmowers are overpriced, their paint mixers are always broken, and their parking lot is a complete horror show. It's a total scam! Very sad.But this Lowe's? Magnificent. They win so much, your toolbox will get tired of winning. They have the greatest tools, the cleanest aisles, and the best prices in the history of retail, maybe ever. If you want to build something beautiful and do it like a true professional, this is the only store to go to. Everyone is talking about it. Period!

I went to the service desk to ask for help and the lady working at the service desk was very rude. Did not want to help at all. She's pointed and goes. It's over there just do it and I'm like I don't know how to do it. She's like figure it out seriously what is wrong with people? You're working customer service learn how to do customer service or get a job that you like so annoying. Next time I'll go to Home Depot or Menards. Lowe's is just closer to my house. I'll go drive the extra miles.

    I recently rented a standing aerator from Rental Max's Carol Stream branch on a Saturday morning…read more Within one hour of using the machine (Toro), the rear left wheel failed to move forward, but it could still move in reverse, so I loaded it back on the trailer and returned the machine, where I received one of their Ryan standing aerators. About four hours into the job, the rear left side tire became flat, so I had to return to their branch so they could replace the tire. I saw them take a tire off of an already broken-down aerator to use in its place. Two hours later, the machine became completely inoperable and would not move an inch. Unfortunately, Rental Max was already closed at this time for the weekend, so I called and left a voice mail so that the time of the incident was recorded within their system. As I still had customers needing their lawns aerated, I tried to figure out what the issue was, and I saw that the chain driving the wheels came off of the sprocket and became very badly jammed inside of its housing. After many hours of mechanical work, in which I had to purchase a unique tool, I finally got the chain unjammed. To my amazement, the branch's assistant manager returned my call and was fully apologetic. He told me that for my troubles, I would not be charged for the rental at all and that they would get me on their calendar to make sure I could complete my remaining yards. The following day, in my first yard, the machine began making a loud clicking sound, and yet again, the left rear wheel stopped moving; this marked the third time in 24 hours it had stopped working. I immediately checked the drive chain to ensure it was still intact, and it was. Completely fed up now, I was able to back the machine onto my trailer. Then, I called Rental Max and left them a voicemail explaining the situation again. When Rental Max opened on Monday morning, I returned with the machine. I worked out with the Manager, Sean, details on how I could get another device and was told that they only had the two devices I had used, which were both now unavailable as they were being serviced, so I had to wait. Once I was at home, Sean contacted me concerning a question about a part. He then informed me that he would charge me for the rental even after his assistant manager assured me I wasn't. Sean kept telling me that he was running a business. In the end, we settled on charging me the four-hour rate instead of the full-day rate, and I would get to use the machine, when ready, to finish my jobs. Three days later, I picked up the same Ryan machine I had used. Within thirty minutes of using the device, I see my yard torn to hell, and the tire is flat. I contacted Sean, and he sent out a staff member to change the exact tire, which was changed three days prior. Once the tire was changed out, I was suitable for about five hours until (two working on the machine) and the left rear tire failed to move as the drive chain was off yet again, making it unmovable. Fed up with the device, I called Sean and left a voicemail explaining where it was located and that he would have to send a crew out to retrieve it. The following day, Sean called me back and told me that he would charge me for the blown tire as "it was a brand new tire." The exact tire, mind you, that I saw his crew take-off of a different machine being serviced and placed on that machine. After informing him of that, he tried to tell me that the tire was a new one that had just been put on that machine before being swapped out and onto my machine. This morning, the same individual who changed the tire the previous day came to help retrieve the broken-down device, and I asked them if they had ever figured out what was wrong with the tire. He replied, "I don't know, it just blew. I think they are going to try and patch it. It was just an OLD crappy tire, so I don't know what good that will do." I will never use this Company again. At first, I thought they stood by their product, but what good is that product if it breaks down all the time? Furthermore, they have zero integrity and will go back on everything they say. Make sure to get everything in writing. Lastly, take pictures of every single thing before and after. They will try and charge you for anything and everything. It was Sean that made this such a terrible experience. The rest of the crew was great and extremely friendly.
