Kendall's is a wonderful store. I normally visit a different location so it's not aware of the store cat thing. I may need to visit this location more often.

However, there is one employee (a male with long-ish wavy hair, likely in his mid-30s) who clearly knows his products but often delivers suggestions in a tone that comes across as condescending and judgmental. I'm sharing this only as constructive feedback, as I otherwise have had very positive experiences and appreciate the store and team.

Also I didn't realize they have services on their website and referrals to other home businesses that can help if they can't. Thanks Guse! Will save all my hardware needs for you!

Unfortunately, they didn't have any in stock that day, despite my hopeful pun. But what really stood out was the effort the staff put in to help me. They didn't send me on my way; instead, they took the time to check the back room, just in case there was leftover stock that hadn't made it to the floor. When that didn't pan out, they didn't stop there. One of the employees pulled up their online inventory system to see if it was available or if other locations might have them. This kind of proactive service is what makes Ace feel like the helpful neighborhood hardware store it's known to be. Even though I left empty-handed this time, I left with a positive impression. As you can see from my photo of the store interior, their shelves are well-stocked with a wide variety of hardware and tools. While I didn't get what I came for this visit, it's clear that on most days they'd have what I need--or at least be willing to help me find it.

I was offered the "double warranty" (which in my mind translated to "pay more for something I'm unlikely to use"). The second individual took the blower to the back to "test it". He placed fuel in the tank, tried it, came out and sent me on my way. Within one hour of use (which included emptying the fuel tank) the blower stopped working. When I took it in, I was informed that offering me the double warranty was their speak for the use of a fuel additive. The blower is fried and the cost of a repair exceeds the $545 I paid for it.

The River Falls Ace Hardware is one of the best hardware stores I have ever been to. There is always lot of help if you need to find some oddball bolt or part. The staff all have radios and will locate anything you need in seconds. The did expand some and now have more square feet of hardware. This location also has an excellent rental selection. I have rented many items from them over the years. Only reason they lost a star is for their pricing on some of their items is a little bit on the aggressive side. I don't expect them to be Menards cheap but they could try to at least price things a little bit more affordable.
