When I came back to get paint, the person wasn't very helpful when asked questions about brushes and didn't check the color's accuracy against the paint chip. Also, nothing has price tags, which makes shopping awkward. The only thing giving them 2 stars instead of 1 is that the paint was high quality. Covered in one coat, and I like the color.

I love being able to avoid Lowes and Home Depot, so this local paint store is right up my alley…read more They carry mostly Benjamin Moore, one of the best paints on the market. It is easy to access the paint samples and there is even a nice table/chairs where you can lay out your project. Another good thing to know is that they also carry wallpaper books The staff is kind of hands off, it is true, unless specifically addressed with a question. I think this comes from dealing with a lot of contractors and designers that already know their stuff. I LOVE being left alone with my own thoughts and I am not really into a baby sitting session. A few times I spotted a helpless customer trying to match some piece of fabric to paint and I helped them match it up real quick so they didn't have to wait for help. Another tip is that they sell large painted swatches and small paint testers. I am a fan.

This is our go to place for Benjamin Moore paint. The color selection for the brand is excellent…read more We have tried Ultra Spec 500, Regal, Aura, and Advance (used for woodwork). Ultra Spec 500 is definitely the best for walls. Regal and Aura are overpriced and tend to drip to due paint viscosity, so I wouldn't use these lines unless you plan on having your home professionally painted. Advance tends to drip as well, so you will need to practice if you plan on using it yourself. Otherwise, I would recommend hiring a professional painter to apply Advance. There seems to be some pricing discrepancies each time I buy in the store. Sometimes they will apply a painter's discount and other times will charge me full price. I have addressed the problem with the store manager on a couple of occasions. My only real complaint is they tend to ignore customers in the store unless they are professional painters. Of course, they make more money on these customers, but they should at least acknowledge a customer when he or she comes in and say how long it will be before they help them. I saw one woman sitting at a table for over 20 minutes without help. Not acceptable. I have gotten to the point that I just write my order down, place it on the counter, and then go to Einstein Bagels to get something to eat. By the time I come back, my order is typically ready.

No answering machine to maybe let me know that the number I am calling is correct and no store hours. 3. Finally find this store on ANTIOCH and not 135th (maybe not their fault) and walk in to buy paint. After some discussion, they say they can have that paint ready by Monday.....it was early in the morning on SATURDAY. My wife and I walked out. Frustrating from start to a lack of a finish. ugh.

He was quick but left paste on all my trim and surfaces telling me it would easily come off when I cleaned it. It took MONTHS. He was not cheap either. I cannot claim that he stole anything from my home (see other review) but it was curious that he "found" the paint for the trim in my laundry room and painted the floor trim behind my washer and dryer. Which we didn't ask him to do. Not sure if he was looking for a tip or just making it seem like he was working longer.. either way, the pricey wallpaper in my powder room looks "ok" but not the professional quality you would expect for the price we paid.

STAY AWAY! Gary Henson is a thief and if you hire him, HE WILL STEAL FROM YOU. Security cameras in…read moreour home captured Gary walking throughout our house, nowhere close to where the project was located, filming our home with his phone. He then went into our master bedroom multiple times, where he stole jewelry and used pliers to pry the diamond out from my wife's wedding ring. His M.O. is distracting you with asks to get him tools "he does not have" and then he quickly walks throughout your house while you are away. He also will tell you that you did not order enough wallpaper, so he has an excuse to come back and steal items based on his filming. We used him once before we caught him, analyzed our security videos from when he was there in the past, and realized what he was doing. When confronted and told of the evidence, he admitted to the theft. Again, if you hire Henson Wallpapering, HE WILL STEAL FROM YOU!

On this recent visit, I especially want to recognize Mike L. I was working on a church project and, not being creative, was stuck regarding how to fix ribbons to a pole. He showed me several displays of hardware around the store that might serve my needs. After looking in three different areas, we found exactly the right item! And then I needed an enzymatic drain cleaner, and he walked me through the specifics of the various brands for sale, going through the details until we found just the right one for my needs. MANY thanks to Mike L. for his knowledge of hardware and home upkeep items, for his persistence in searching various areas until we found exactly the right item, and for his friendly, patient and welcoming attitude as we searched together. Thank you for such a pleasant shopping experience! Your great customer service is the reason I return to Waldo Hardware FIRST!

I've brought my pup in here as she continues to need some socialization and it always goes well. One time the clerks had their dog too and they became fast friends. This store really packs quite a bit into it. Of course it won't be as sizable as a Home Depot, but man oh man is the experience world's better. I found every single thing on my list which was great. It's closest size comparison to me would be the Ace in Westport, but hey guess what, you don't have to fear for your life in KC's worst intersection if you come here! It's easy to park in the lot out front, off of the always-busy 75th Street. My kids love it because they have a gumball machine, whoopie cushions, and other classics from back in the day when the world was making real attempts to be fun. I think I might even go out of my way again to come back to this spot more regularly.. nice place.

Michael the manager and Vicky the purchaser pointed fingers at who dropped the ball and there was nothing the owners would do to help us. Horrible customer service.

They've got nearly anything and everything an aspiring young wooden boy would need to get those elbows sweaty and oiled up. The assortment of random rare wood pieces was the most surprising, yet the board selection is formidable. I bought an ice-cream scoop kit that demands you build it a handle; made a handle for it out of some 25 year-aged osage orange I had sitting around. The kit broke in like 5 ways, so... I don't know, still a great place for wood working enthusiasts. Tools galore, they have so much to play with in there; honestly, first time in, and I spent more than an hour walking around and touching things. They also have a great email system set up, so sign up for that. The location is a little Narnia-esq, what with the lefts and the rights and the straights, and don't get me started on the parking. But worth it I'd surmise. Work some wood; it'll do you good.
