We went to Ace Hardware where one of their workers disassembled the walker, replaced the nut, and assembled it again. When we asked for the charge he said there was no charge. Would we have had the same service from Home Depot? I think not. Every time I have been to this store they have been very helpful - it will always be my first stop.

Awful! I bought a generator and didn't end up needing it. I went back to the store within 14 days…read morewith my receipt, the unopened box and credit card I used to purchase the item. They refused my return and said they recently changed their return policy on generators to 7 days although that was never specified when purchasing the item. The manager at this store refused to assist in any capacity. I've been a customer of this store for decades and have spent tens of thousands of dollars here when renovating my house. It is unconscionable that they would treat a loyal, paying customer this way. Everyone beware and stay away from this greedy store that does not care about its customers in the slightest.

Apparently they charge a $175 holding fee any time you use a gas pump? I put 2.5 gallons (it was…read morelike $8.50?) in my car, and saw this charge. Called the store and the cashier told me it was a holding fee they process in case you damage the pump. What?! Thank god I used a credit card, instead of a debit card.

Asked the cashier where to find what I was looking for bc I didn't want to be there either, trust me, and I thought It'd help me speed things up. She kind of points toward the back of the store, "aisle 12, or 11, somewhere around there." I admit defeat after looking in both and head back up to the front. Some guy is trying to avoid me while he shuts down the computer and grabs his lunch pail to bolt, I ask him where to find what I'm looking for, as he's walking past me he points and mumbles 14. I bought 4 ACs here for my office recently. And we shop here for home needs too. I'll go elsewhere if I get treated like this again.

Whether it's filling…read morea propane tank, replacing a window screen, finding a plumbing part or strategizing what type of tool I might need for a project they have it all AND they know how to use it. There are floor staff everywhere to answer questions. In response to the previous review about chatty cashiers -- this isn't a chain store. It's a local place with lifetime customers including other businesses, contractors, homeowners and vacationers, too. It's a community business where we can take a moment to acknowledge each other with a "hello how are you." If the reviewer was that put out they could have easily said something to the (always present) owner rather than complain about it here. The friendly cashiers are long female time employees who will not only ring up your purchase but are very knowledgable about the products sold and where to find them.

We had 5 knives, so we dropped them off and within about 2 hours, we got a call saying our knives were ready for pick up.

My whole family has been going to this store since it opened. That stops today…read more I purchased a light timer. It came wrapped in hard plastic that you need to cut with a knife or scissors to open. I believe the item was defective. I could get it to work to either turn the lights on or shut them off but not both. I went to the store, with my receipt, to return the item. At first, they stated they got it working and it was not defective. ( They actually got it to turn on an item which I also did). Then they said they could not accept the return because I did not have the original packaging and therefore they could not resell it. I asked how are they going to sell an item that is not working properly. They still refused to accept the return. I left the timer with them and walked out of the store. We will never return. Now I understand how Amazon is so successful.

I…read morehave made several purchases at the retail store and have had a couple of deliveries from them as well and from the Hanleys and their staff at the store to the delivery person they all have been extremely knowledgeable, helpful and professional. I also know a lot of people from MA, RI, & CT that have said the same thing about their experiences with Hanley & Williams. Like the gentleman who wrote a review before mine, I to am very familiar with lumbar yards and understand no matter who you purchase lumber from you should know to expect some imperfections because they are milled and bundled in mass quantities, especially with pressure treated lumber. Here's the difference, you can go to a Home Depot or Lowes and spend the day picking through their lumber and NEVER find finish quality or go to a place like Hanley & Williams and start with a higher quality lumber and feel comfortable knowing you can return any imperfect pieces and hand pick them yourself or call them and they will come exchange them for you when the delivery truck goes back out. As a knowledgeable do-it-yourselfer who relies on a company like Hanley & Williams you just cant beat that. To the entire staff at Hanley & Williams - excellent job .. keep it up!
