I strongly urge anyone with a need for parts, to go here! I needed a new spark plug, so I went to my local hdwe store and couldn't find a similar one, nor could I find a book to cross reference it. I asked for help and they paged someone, who never responded. That's the kind of service you get these days from chain stores. I went to the Empire and the guy who helped me, I'd guess he was the owner or Mgr. looked at my plug, stepped in the back and under $3 later and in less than 2 minutes I was gone. Today I bent the blade on my mower. I googled a few local big box stores to get an idea of availability and price. I then went to Empire and had a new blade within a couple of minutes, was able to park at the front door, no long waiting or crowds and received exceptional service and a better price than any big box store around. Why fight parking, people, and long lines? when this is the best place around! I'd give them 10 stars if possible! read more
