The staff wears masks, is friendly and offers help in a non pushy way. There is a plexiglass shield and hand sanitizer at the cash register, the same place they cut keys. I am constantly surprised at the vast array of products they manage to stock. Check it out ! Love this mom & pop style hardware shop adding to the charm on Main St at the Manchester road race starting line. This place is significantly larger than it appears from the front with parking and entrances on main st. and out back. The selection of products is far more than I've expected and ranges from paint to key cutting to lawn care tsalt to any kind of hardware you need. I always hit this place up when I can and can usually avoid home depot and Lowe's. Prices are very comparable too. Love supporting a local business when I can. :)

For $10 bucks, you wanna lose business go ahead then spend 5 times more in advertising to attract a customer. Sometimes it's not about the money, it's about how you make your customer feel.

First of all... Richard in appliances in Manchester is great! Knowledgeable, friendly, and…read moreprovided us with many 'tips'. He was the reason we decided to purchase the refrigerator here. HOWEVER... delivery was scheduled... the driver called at 11:45 to tell us they would be there in 20 minutes. At 12:00 I received a text stating "they could not complete our delivery" and someone would call to reschedule. WHAT?? Well apparently, due to a storm, there was a tree down on a street in our neighborhood (not ours) and the drivers chose not to detour the ONE MINUTE it would have taken them to go around the block. They just called 15 minutes earlier... they couldn't call me back??? I immediately called the delivery number they gave me and was told the drivers could NOT turn around, and the next delivery date was several days out. I went above and beyond to prepare for this delivery... even putting the old refrigerator right by the door for them. The drivers must be in the business of losing money for the company... after this debacle we immediately cancelled the order and purchased elsewhere.

They call you with an automated call, which is supppse to give you half an hour to be on site, and then they might come as quickly as 10 instead and will insist the customer handle it and push to let them drop the skid somewhere undesirable... and when they say curbside, they mean "Bottom of the driveway" and if you aren't here fast enough too bad, enjoy hand bombing stuff an extra time in 90 degree weather. The staff is vigilante, ready to defend the errors that their drivers or staff make. They will try to make you feel like you don't know there policy and procedures well enough, even when you have been going to them for years. Not only will you still be super mad by the time the conversation is over, but nothing will be rectified and they will keep making mistakes and putting the blame on the customer.

If you beat on those day after day, they will probably break. But for a homeowner how needs to use a tool a few times a year, that's perfect. They sell higher-quality options, which will hold up to heavy use and abuse much better. Those are still less expensive that almost anything else, and they are much higher quality. Know what level of quality you need, and you'll do quite well here.

One of my favorite "best kept secrets." I recently bought a home and decided to remodel the kitchen…read moreand bathroom before moving in. After searching around the big box stores, I stumbled upon Grossman's. In one day, I picked up all my kitchen cabinets, countertops, bathroom vanities, and other items such as sink faucets for under $3,000. Grossman's specializes in close outs and has a little less selection than the big box stores, but still has tons to offer. They have flooring, doors, windows, bathroom vanities, tubs, toilets, kitchen cabinets, countertops, and a ton more. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly and will help you with any questions you may have. One of my cabinets arrived with a scratch, and the manager quickly ordered a replacement for me and gave me his store email so I could contact him as needed for my cabinet install. Overall great quality store and friendly staff that are willing to help. Check it out if you're tired of the big box selection.

Putman Blvd., Glastonbury/East Hartford CT Home Depot. Terrible check out. Staff in check out line…read moredidn't know what they were doing and just standing there. The lines didn't move. Large wood strips and dry wall customer blocking the whole line had a few items and the employer couldn't check them out, didn't know what she was doing. The bar codes were plain and simple. It's unsafe and a fire hazard to have large items blocking the isles when the isle is not wide enough to hold it and let customers get through.They are blocking the exit. On the other side was a couple with a small dog and the another employee kept petting the dog and it was jumping on her and the staff is more interested in the dog than in doing their job. Who is the responsible for the dog, the store or the dog owner. The employee was giving more attention to the dog instead of making sure the customers were being taken care of. Clueless staff. The lines are too close when you are trying to check out large items. No supervisor. This was after 7:00 PM at night. Maybe the day staff is more competent. Add more self check out lines because what you have a customer gets boxed in or have a self check out for large items only. Didn't seem like any of the staff knew what they were doing.

I watched for awhile and nothing spectacular came of it. Kinda would say that's the *vibe* for this store. One other time this lady who worked here was rude... I was here right at opening and went to walk in and boy she shut those doors quick. Idk why they were unlocked but I didn't unlock them and thus was a little taken again. Figured that was just a once off. For all of these reasons, 4/5 ... maybe 85/100 if this was a test. We could call it a "B"
