We had an exceptional experience with Dave at the Arnold Ace Hardware! We were in a bit of a bind trying to transport a large piece of plywood that wouldn t fit in our car, and Dave immediately stepped up to help. He didn t hesitate to volunteer, going above and beyond to personally deliver it to our house. His kindness and willingness to go the extra mile truly saved us in a tight situation. To our surprise, we later found out it was only his second day on the job! His professionalism and dedication were top-notch, and it s clear he s a great addition to the Ace Hardware team. Thank you, Dave, for your outstanding service!

10 STARS FOR GRYFFINDOR I m at Ace Hardware, and Colton was extremely diligent. I thanked him for his clarity and help with creating 25 keys, which was extremely tasking and time-consuming. It took a lot of concentration to keep organized, and he reassured me several times which key was for what to make sure he was getting it correct. I am dyslexic, so I really appreciate how clear he communicated through the whole entire process. He even kept informing me where he was in the process as I mindlessly wandered around the store, looking at shiny objects. Colton was so on point, I d say he s got the key to great customer service! me know if this works for you!

Just purchased an EGO electric riding mower from Cape Ace. Great service. They put it together and delivered to my home! The mower is the gray one which is close to the profile of my old mower, compact. It has a steering wheel that is very responsive turning tight curves. The power is impressive as well as being quiet. The only thing different ( besides not needing gas, oil changes, etc.) is that the blade will not operate in reverse. You need to line up going forward for blade cutting. Not a problem. It drives like a kiddie car. The charger is easy to use with a standard 110 outlet. The cord is long enough. Nice compartment for your phone or other things. Cup holder. Adjustable seat. Percentage of battery power on the dash. Nice mower! Check it out.

Brings me back to my US Navy days, we called it mechanical fingers. Had an automotive fog light bulb break in 2 pieces. Once piece was stuck in the housing of fog light assembly. Auto Mechanic said he would most likely have to take bumper off to remove fog light housing. With a little patience, luck and this AMAZING TOOL, mission accomplished and saved me at least $200. Bonus, the folks at Cape St. Clare, ACE in Annapolis, MD are always pleasant and eager to help! The guy making keys was also easy to talk to and just happy to please customers!

I bought an over priced child s snow sled there. Didn t use it and tried to return a few days later. They say they can t return it because it s a storm supply in the same vein as walk-way salt Meanwhile, the ace down the street in Severna park said they would return it. I ll be taking my business to that location even though it s way further for me.

They have what you need just like any other ace but if you re under 18 then don t even bother. They will treat you like a baby when I walked they all came up to me asking where my parents are and when I said I was alone they proceeded to escort me around the store, like I was a baby. I could barely get what I needed because they rushed me so I could get out of there. I m a teenager I don t keep help buying tape!

Extremely helpful staff, theyre there to greet you as soon as you walk in unless theyre all busy. Its a small, easy to navigate store. They have a lot of stuff (clearly not one tenth as much as Home Depot or Lowes). They have almost anything you may need around the house or outside with obvious limited quantities and manufacturers, but you can still find just about anything you may need. The prices may be a little higher but at least youre not walking around for a half hour trying to find what you need. Usually in and out in two minutes. I also like supporting smaller businesses.

Its annoying how many times I get asked if I need help. Its also hilarious your search bar is hard to find on mobile. Why is that hilarious? You missed out on a $7,182.44 order. HahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahHahaaaa. Stop asking the same person 20 times if they need help and Ill stop ignoring you face to face while your talking and I look at you saying nothing. You guys dont know how to handle that. Lololol

Love this local treasure! One of the items my daughter wanted for her birthday was a Yeti cup. Unfortunately, I was unable to get there during operating hours but the owner picked up the phone and said sure, come on over, Im here and Ill let you in. Not going to get that at Home Depot or Lowes! Nor will you get the customer service each and every time I go there. Everyone is pleasant and eager to help you find what you are looking for! Thank you Melissa!

I ve used this store for the last 6 years now, and they ve always been very helpful. However, yesterday I went in to pick up a few things. I had just picked up my toddler from school, and he was with me. I was picking up some mounting hardware when my boy lets me know he needs to go potty. I ask if there s a bathroom and I m lied to no. So I hurry and get my articles and head to the register. I tell the registrar that my boy needs to use the restroom and she does try to help, but her superiors refuse, telling me to go to Subway. Needless to say, it didn t work out. It s sad cause I try to use the small guy over the big guy as most as I can. But this lack of attention to the customer is unacceptable. I understand if there s a policy of no public restrooms, but this is a toddler we re talking about. When you re up against the big dogs, service makes the difference, and this experience will make me think twice about using this store again.

I am a frequent patron of this store. The customer service is always stellar and beyond compare. However, today, a customer service representative went above and beyond. Jermaine asked me if I would like assistance and everything went smoothly from that moment on. I did not have to think at all; Jermaine did it for me. He swiftly and efficiently found everything I needed and got me out of the store within 20 minutes. I always have a pleasant shopping experience when I go to Cape Ace but today was definitely exceptional.

Cape Ace is a great asset for the community. You walk in and are immediately greeted by 2-3 employees, asking how they can assist you. Try getting that kind of service at Home Depot or Lowes. While the prices might be a bit higher than the competitors, the level of convenience for the community on top of the level of customer service definitely make up for it.

The people make the store. Without the endless lessons and advice from the staff I wouldnt have been able to renovate my bathroom, fix my washer, build a walk-in or any of the 100s of small fixes I have required over the years. They have a huge help desk but they dont even need it b/c the employees are all over the place helping at every turn. My house says Thanks!

I recently moved here from Annapolis city. The reason I moved here to the outskirts because I could not stand the congestion, and behavior of Annapolis city. Today I walked in to buy a gutter drain extension and I was very pleased with the staff. Everyone asked if I needed help(no joke literally everyone) Im so glad I moved into such a friendly community! Great job guys for making my first retail experience here a great on!!!

I end up here a lot when my dad needs things mid-project and dosent have time to drive out to a big hardware store or order online. They almost always have what he needs, and you are never there for more than a few minutes before someone asks if they can help you. Always greeted when you first walk in to. I have been to a few of the womens nights and they are fun. I appreciate that they sell diet tea in the drink cooler as most stores dont carry that. Im not supposed to have sugar or carbonation, so it is nice having an option besides water to drink. My dad always gets the licorice they sell here too as its very strong. They have a large selection of non-tool things such as toys, kitchen gadgets, maryland pride, decor, soaps/lotions, garden items and gifts.

Review №131

Ive come in here on many occasions, usually for something that I need in a pinch since its the closest hardware store to me. Most of the time when I walk in the door, someone at the front counter will ask if I need help finding anything. The only times they havent asked is when theyre slammed with ringing out customers. When I tell them what Im looking for, not only do they tell me where I can find it, but theyll also call another associate to the same aisle to assist me. The staff there really know their stuff too. There have been a couple times where Ive posed kind of an oddball situation to them and whoever was helping me at the time has always been able to come up with some solution. Keep up the great work, Cape Ace!
