There are a few helpful employees on the floor, and I appreciate them. But the overall tone of this…read morestore is set by leadership, and it's consistently cold and disengaged. The people at the top--those at the front counter and in charge--rarely smile, offer no greeting, and seem irritated by simple customer interaction. A "thank you," a smile, "would you like it in a bag?" or even "have a nice day"--none of those basic human courtesies seem to exist here. What's more disappointing is that this behavior seems to trickle down. Whether by example or expectation, the culture has become one of indifference. I've given this place several chances, hoping the vibe might shift, but it hasn't. So I've started shopping elsewhere--even if it means driving farther or paying a bit more. I'm not just buying hardware; I'm choosing where I feel respected.

This is a small town hardware store that, although it can't compete with Lowes or Home Depot in the…read moresheer volume of items they carry, I honestly think Landrum Hardware is THE BEST SMALL TOWN HARDWARE STORE I have ever been in. (Keep in mind, my idea of a date is a trip to a hardware store, sometimes just to browse.) There is always someone available to help customers, their selection of items is amazing for a store their size, and they make sure to stock supplies people in this area need. Plus they have a U Haul truck rental that makes life so much easier than going south to Greenville/Spartanburg or North to Hendersonville. I often choose Landrum Hardware over Lowes or Home Depot because i know the people there, and I want them to stay in business for a good long time. For a non-chain store, their prices are more than fair. Thank you Landrum Hardware for being here. Susan Lane, Tryon, NC

I went to Hilltop in February to have them make me a custom 8 foot wood slab. Dealt entirely with…read moreJared throughout the process. They had issues related to a mill being stolen but I was willing to wait because they're a small, local company. So Jared says my slab is set to be cut first week of May and he contacted me May 3rd to verify measurements and he says they're getting ready to cut it. That's the last contact Jared had with me. I recommended to my family to go to hilltop for an unrelated wood project. While they were at hilltop in early July, they asked about the status of my wood slab and were told "yeah, we couldn't do that". That was the entire explanation. I never heard from Jared. Horrible customer service and honestly would never do business with them. I'd still be waiting if family members hadn't happened to ask while they were there. Do yourself a favor and go to Asheville Hardware instead, I walked in and had my pick of over 100 slabs, got one for cheaper than hilltop quoted me and had it in my garage that same day. So hilltop took 6 months and I got no slab. Asheville Hardware, I had a slab in my truck within an hour. The owner of hilltop left me a voicemail after I contacted them. Apparently he had no idea any of the issues with my order or the customer service I received which isn't a good sign for an extremely small business.

He was still at the shop about to leave in his truck and he got out, asked if he could help me and reopened just so i could get my coils. He wasnt mean or hostile about it either in fact it seemed like he was more than happy to reopen and help me out. Its a small shop but it has a surprisingly big selection of mods, disposable vapes, juices, and coils. Cant recommended enough.

I see where a previous reviewer thought some items could be a little pricey. Some of the things they had were. But I'm sure there are good deals here too. The store supports a good cause, so I personally don't mind paying a few bucks more than the rock-bottom price on any given used item. But, they have a wide selection of things. Computer monitors (a couple LCD), appliances, and other things you might find in a home. So many useful things are here! I picked up a toaster oven there for $15. It works like a charm and is pretty close to new. I'm happy.

The installers were completely incompetent and they hooked up the water but not the drain so when we first used the washer, it resulted in water running down to the first floor through the ceiling.

When I called to complain, the sales person said it was our fault for not checking! He was very rude and he basically hung up on us. Also, the builder who is a very good builder noticed how inept the installers were. They didn't seem to know what they were doing. please find another appliance store.
