I made the mistake of purchasing a Stihl MS 171 chainsaw from this Ace Hardware store - clearly a…read moremajor mistake as it is a disappointing and frustrating piece of garbage. I strongly recommend against buying one. Moreover, I will never go to this dealer - Carter Ace Hardware in Eustis, FL - again. They have lost a customer and I advise others to not shop there as well. When the dealer tried to demo the chainsaw for me after I'd purchased it, it would not start and kept stalling out. The dealer said their Stihl tech would be in a couple of days later and they were sure it probably just needed a minor adjustment. The dealer called Tuesday afternoon telling me the carburetor merely needed to be adjusted, it was now working great and I could come to pick it up. When I went to the Carter Ace Hardware store to pick up the chainsaw, two of their employees tried to demonstrate how to use the saw. They, again, had significant difficulties trying to start it and keep it running. I should have cancelled my purchase then and there and asked for a refund. Major mistake on my part that I didn't. UGH. After considerable effort, they finally managed to get it running. Being a trusting individual, I made the mistake of believing their employees telling me if I had any issues I could return it. Although concerned, I very reluctantly took it home. Please note - between the time I first committed to purchase the saw and when I went in to pick it up, I watched Stihl chainsaw videos online and downloaded and read the entire Owner's Manual for the saw. Twice in the past three days since purchasing the saw I've tried to use it. Each time the saw was difficult to start and keep running. If I paused using the saw and turned it off - it was difficult to restart and took considerable effort and patience to restart to continue using it. This morning I took the saw back to Carter's Ace Hardware to return it. They were not receptive. One of the same employees who had struggled to demo the saw took it outside and, of course, it started right up and seemed to work fine. Must be operator error on my part. The bottom line - I own a chainsaw that I strongly believe is an absolute piece of garbage and DO NOT want. You will probably see it for sale on FB Marketplace or eBay because I'll definitely be buying a competitor's product. Any recommendations???

When I told the AI agent what I wanted, they told me that the screws were in a specific aisle, and the price was lower than quoted on Lowe's website. I went to the store, the man at the pro shop looked them up. He told me that they were out of stock! So he then ordered them for me, from the vendor....Then I asked him if they had any Cedar boards in stock, in 8 feet long... 1x6" and 1x8". He told me the 1" x 6" x 8' Boards were out of stock, but the 1" x 8" x 8' were in stock....He told me that they were in Aisle 51. I went to Aisle 51, they had loads of Cedar boards, in multiple sizes....I picked out the 1" x 8" x 8', then I picked out the 1" x 6" x 8' ones. Yes, they had a bunch of sizes available. Their AI agent sucks...bad information on the screws. Also their Computer System sucks...It doesn't tell the people who are trying to assist customers accurate information.

The morning of the delivery I got another text saying it was out for delivery. 1 pm I called and they said that they didn't have the dryer. After letting them know how I felt about that I received a text that night saying it would be delivered the next day. A text again the morning of the delivery said it would be delivered between 1:30-4:30. I called at 130 and again they said they said it wasn't being delivered as this time they didn't have the washer. I went to the store and spoke with the assistant manager who said if o go back to the appliance section an associate would help me select a different model and he would come back and make sure I got what I was looking for. I was never approached by anyone and the assistant manager never showed up. I had the service desk call him. He shows up I told him I never had any assistance. I canceled my order with them and his attitude was just ok I'll cancel the order. There is just no accountability.

I am always greeted the minute I walk through the door, and have able assistance anytime I need it. Sometimes I just walk up and down the aisles to take in the sheer amount of items they have, as many times I found things that I have forgotten I needed! I also use them to fill my propane tanks, so much cheaper than trading out tanks, and nearly as fast! Yes, some things are more expensive than the big box stores, but I find most items are well within the price range, plus I can find many items that the other stores don't stock. And I am in and out in a flash!

When I got home to find it appeared to be a return since there was no packing material or plastic in the box - damn. So just like I feared it didn't work. I went to return it the next day. i was told there was a restock fee unless I bought a more expensive model. I explain that the pressure washer was a returned product and that it did not work. The manager Alex who's picture is below had a terrible attitude and was adamant about a restock fee an a product that was an obvious return and did not work. I asked for a business card and a number for corporate. He said he did not have a business card and the number for corporate was online. He pushed out his name tag which only had his first name while smirking childishly. What an arrogant individual. Needless to say I will talk to another manager and call corporate. I hate giving them 1 star but it won't let you give no stars. Beware of this rip off!!!!! Don't buy anything with a restock fee and make sure you open the box to ensure it's not a returned product and try not to deal with Alex!

In fact, I saw a few non-clothing items that I thought were slightly under priced, such as brand new looking baseball gloves for $7. Those things are very expensive new. I escaped this time with just a couple of clothing items as I was just browsing really.
