Pretty much , you've seen one Home Depot, you've seen them all, at least in my opinion & experience. We went to this one , specifically for a new shower head for MY shower, that our local Home Depot didn't have in stock. They have such an incredible selection of everything, it could almost drive a person crazy trying to make a final decision. I loved the gorgeous hanging lights / chandeliers they have. I could spend literally a fortune in these stores remodeling every room in my house, although it doesn't need it. The employees were helpful & the store was clean & uncluttered.

As a first time home owner, I have now discovered how important having a local hardware and building supply store is to a neighborhood. From building a deck, blowing out a wall, building a wall in closet, to installing a sump pump and finishing our garage- Home Depot is there with the tools, supplies, and helpful associates I need to make these projects happen. The store is always clean, and it never takes long to find someone who can help answer your question. The employees are also fairly good about deferring your question to another coworker if they don't know the answer, which is extremely important because you don't want electrical advice from the person working in the windows department, nor plumbing advice from the person in lumber. I opened a Home Depot credit card, and this is a must for anyone with a home- while it doesn't have all of the fancy perks as my American Express, it does offer interest free financing for 1-3 years depending on what you spend, pretty much all the time so that is huge in case a washer or dryer break, fridge breaks etc- I know I can walk in and put it on my HD credit card.

We ordered an expensive fridge from Home Depot online in May, because it was on sale. However our remodel was not until July and we wanted to make sure the fridge stayed "safe" until installation. So, we inspected the box to make sure there was no damage and since the packaging was all intact, we decided to leave the fridge in the packaging, so it would be protected, until we were ready to install it. Come installation day, we unwrapped the fridge only to find dents and damage all over! My husband spent two days on the phone, being tossed from one person to the next (including Joe, a store manager at the Amherst location), who all parroted the same message: our policy states you have 2 days from delivery to inspect your product and return if there are any damages. You did not comply with the policy, therefore this is your problem, not ours, and we will do nothing. I understand "policy", and as a general rule policy is good, but in customer service there is a "human factor" to consider. We weren't trying to go against their policy, we literally just had nowhere to keep the fridge safe for 2 months until installation. So, we thought we were making the best decision possible to keep the fridge in its [undamaged] packaging to protect it. But none of that mattered to anyone my husband talked to over the course of 2 days (approximately 9 Home Depot employees). (Side note: my husband is my hero now more than ever for how calm and patient and respectful he remained with everyone he spoke to! I don't know how he did it.) Instead, because their policy wasn't followed, Home Depot is just taking our $$$$ and leaving us with a brand new, expensive, damaged fridge. I'm just in absolute shock. A billion dollar company sends us a damaged product and won't do anything about it because their "policy wasn't followed". How is this ok? Unfortunately, I doubt this review will do any good in saving anyone else from doing business with Home Depot. I, myself, had numerous people warn me about buying big purchases which may require customer service from Home Depot. But I didn't listen, reasoning that Home Depot is such a reputable store, I'm sure I would never have any problems with them. And unfortunately, most people, like me, aren't going to look for reviews about Home Depot until they're in this exact situation - having been through the wringer with them. But on the off chance even one person reads this and decides to save themself the headache (and thousands of dollars), I'm putting this out there. Do yourself a favor and, even if it costs a few hundred extra, take your big purchase business to a company that cares about their paying customers.

My fiancé & I usually only come here when something is on sale…read more This time, it was Tarps. Unfortunately, they sold out because it was such a great deal. Every time I come here , I find the cutest little things ,that I end up spending so much money on. They have good things on clearance all the time, or just things on sale in big bins in the front of the store. They have a good selection of tools, and at home necessities (or just "wants") for the size of store they are. It's pretty small ,especially when compared to Home Depot, but, it has things you need in a hurry. You'll have to go in & check it out yourself. It's too hard for me to explain everything they have, I mostly pay attention to the fun stuff, that I want. Lol

I'm not a fan of hardware stores. I must admit I'm in the category of "technically and/or…read moremechanically challenged female" - I only venture into hardware stores out of dire need. I've picked up on some lingo over the years watching the tool-time sitcom, and I've stocked my tool box with orange juice and vodka, in case there's an emergency at home. You know the kind I'm talkin about? With that being drunk, I mean said, this smaller size hardware store didn't frighten me. I was able to find a few items rather quickly without having to walk miles of aisles, as I was not looking for a workout. Just some tools and gadgets. I found some nifty bungee cords set for $3.99, an air pump for my bike tires for $7.99 and oil lubricant for my bike chain and some squeaky window and doors in my house for $3.99. I even found - guess what? A philips end with a shank. Doesn't that sound fancy? How do you like that, I'm showing off now. What I couldn't find I asked the cashier and he pointed me in the right direction. I like it when there are actual people around to ask for where an item is or suggest what I might prefer or need for the type of mechanical, plumbing or electrical issue that's causing some mental issue. Like stress. Like low self esteem. Because I hate having home problems that I cannot fix myself or understand what the heck is going on. And I dread home problems which will be costing me plenty to get a professional over to fix. But this was a rather therapeutic experience for me taking my hardware phobia into account. I'll be back to shopping here again. but truly, a screwdriver to me is made of orange juice, vodka
