My FAVORITE home improvement store is Menards in Bloomfield Hills, MI. This two story gem is by…read morefar better than any HomeDepot or Lowes. In my opinion, HomeDepot is more for construction workers, Lowes is for those looking for better quality and Menards is totally upscale and beats them both hands down. Before relocating from Keego Harbor, MI to San Angelo we purchased 2 ceiling fans for our San Angelo condo. Not sure what happened during our chaotic move, we discovered that one light didn't work after installing them in our condo a month after moving in. I emailed Menards customer service and explained that we purchased them in MI and installed them in TX with no way to easily return/exchange it for another fan. Menards doesn't have a store (yet) in TX. Linda w/Menards customer service took the bull by the horns and within 2 weeks we received not 1 but 2 light replacements for the ceiling fans. Talk about GREAT out of state customer service! Menards is simply the BEST. They could have said "you need to return the defective fan for a refund".

This was going to be a dirty-your-hands type of operation. Giant overhead fans in the garden area did little to cool down the temperature, as the whole area is still just outdoors. The checkout area moves quickly, the cashiers are deft with their scanners. We got our soil, plants, and gravel posthaste.

Imbued with this "buy local" spirit, I drove to the store to purchase a product priced $30 higher than I would have paid on Amazon. The person who worked in paint on Aug 13, 2022 at 3:30pm, who asked if they could help me, turned out to be condescending, demeaning and downright rude, leaving me no choice but to walk out of the store, extremely agitated and frustrated, and with great restraint, not irate. I then went to Great Lakes Ace in Novi, and by stark contrast, the service I received in Novi was stellar, making for a very pleasant 5* experience. It doesn't take much to treat a customer right to build loyalty and advocacy. But when the customer has been wronged, they will go out of their way to take their business elsewhere. In this case, I am no exception.

The people here are so friendly and super helpful. I recently found out they have a personalizing engraving machine that you can use on miscellaneous gifts like cutting boards and Yeti drink ware. So we came here to get a couple Yeti items. We found some light lavender cups, one small high ball for coffee and one large tumbler for water and had the best time customizing them. You can do pictures and words and even import your own images and each item took only a few minutes to engrave. So adorable. It was also very reasonably priced and you can even bring your own to get personalized, you do not have to buy it there. They also have a nice variety of BBQ's and even pizza ovens. They even demoed the pizza the other day, it looked and smelled spectacular. This place is located in a very convenient area, easy to get in and out. I love shopping here.

However, during checkout a wonderful young girl wished me a good day. Too bad that couldn't have been from the other two employees I needed to deal with earlier.

When I am in a hurry…read moreand don't want to drive to Home Depot/Lowes/Menards that are farther away this store almost always meets my needs and saves me time and gas. Relative to the store, it has all the basic stuff you would expect from a hardware store like Hardware, electrical, plumbing, tools etc and also offers some unique stuff Like Traegger smoker Grilles/supplies/pellets and a full assortment of Stihl power tools that you will not find in the bigger home improvement chains. Ace also have a free rewards program where you get periodic cash awards for use with purchases at their store and has some great sales. On this particular trip I purchased Scotts four step fertilizer 5000 square ft program for $65 dollars (regular $85) which is a great price and used a $5 rewards card to further lower this cost. You can't touch this cost anywhere else and is much cheaper than the $300 lawn service I used to use. Also I bought some Traegger cherry wood pellets for my smoker for the same cost that you can get it on line and avoided the shipping cost. Overall a great alternative to the big chain stores especially if closer to your home.

The product selection is also much varied than the big box in what you come to get. Having 2 entrances , 1 off of Maple using the bank entrance and directly off Orchard Lake to the big parking lot. While it is not the biggest of the chain, it is not the smallest either. Will be back when I need any plants or decor.
