“Excellent customer service. Went in there to see if the had a specific retaining clip. Sure enough they delivered,they had it. Just wanted to thank Charlie and Darin. Will definitely return for future purchases. You just don’t find customer service like this anymore. Thanks again, Steven”
“Needed to replace propane tank for outdoor grill, but find it heavy and awkward to "switch out" at my age. Store staff was wonderfully friendly in both selection and purchase, as well as careful referral to local handyman able to make timely home visit at very reasonable cost. I felt important with small purchase and look forward to returning for other "projects".”
“Not the cheapest spot depending on what you're getting, but the employees tend to be really helpful and nice, and it's definitely a good place if you need a really particular part (such as when our hose valve kept leaking). We usually come in for propane for our business—you can get both tanks and refills here. We are part of their rewards program so we're always getting coupons sent to us. Love perusing the garden center, good plant selection during that season.”
“Bales-Ace hardware in Westmont is always a great experience. They actually have friendly, helpful staff that in knowledgeable and will even help you out to your car. Imagine that!!!!!!”
“Got two jack stands today. And Trish gave excellent customer service ! Helped us out with the extended warranty . By far the best harbor freight store there is .”
“Very friendly and helpful service as soon as I walked in. Everyone received help immediately as there were a lot of staff on the floor escorting customers. Merchandise was well-stocked and labeled. The paint section here is smaller than most other Ace Hardware locations. Everything seemed very dusty (however, most hardware stores are!) but no biggie. Nice little selection of plants. Some have seen better days and one plant needed water badly. The popcorn machine was being used and the young man was very sanitary and professional attending to it. The cashier was extremely friendly and happy. As a whole, everyone working seemed so pleasant and helpful which makes a tremendous difference.”
“Loving the garden center! Huge win having Bill as he's a wealth of knowledge on all things plants. I had the pleasure of meeting. Sue. She helped me navigate the garden center and had the patience of a saint while I corralled a 4-year-old. Very happy with the prices in quality. Have plants. Will definitely be returning.”
“The best bang for your buck anywhere. You can find high-quality items here, but if you need a quick, cheap version of the tool you're looking for in order to get a weekend job done fast, this is the place to go.”
“Did a fantastic job tuning up and repairing my mower and chainsaw, very competitive pricing. I also bought a Stihl leaf blower I’m very happy with. Scott is a very nice and knowledgeable man.”

1705 N Main St, Wheaton“5 star customer service given by Andrew. Without even being asked he offered to load up my carpet cleaner and did it was a smile. Beyond happy with this, highly recommend this location. Give that kid a raise!!!”
“From the first phone call to locate a hard-to-find item to picking up our item which was unboxed and assembled to loading it in our vehicle, every employee was unfailingly helpful and pleasant. Giving this place 5 stars only because I can't give 6 or 7. Kudos, Warrenville Ace!”
“All the employees are quick, helpful and knowledgeable. I brought in a pair of faucet cartridges and before I could say anything he had the correct replacements in hand. The same guy walked me through a dishwasher hookup as well when I was unsure of what PVC parts I needed for it to work. See attached pictures for a before and after.”

90 E Loop Rd, Wheaton“I visited here yesterday looking for a specific houseplant. Although I didn't see it, I did select another nice one. Really great inventory of plants. Great staff. Thanks Ace!”

1096 State St, Lemont“Great hardware store with excellent customer service! The store has a great variety of anything you might need for your projects. Terrific barbeque section and even Bazooka Joe bubble gum!”
8AM - 8PM
145 E 1st St, Elmhurst“I have visited this location a number of times since moving to the area. There is always someone who can help you find what you are looking for or can help you fix something vs completely replacing it. I would recommend starting here for your DIY project”
8AM - 6PM
1212 S Naper Blvd Ste 117, Naperville“It may not have the selection of Home Depot, but what it DOES have are people who are friendly and knowledgeable. Literally, you could walk in with a screw and there’d be someone who knew what it was and knew where you could get more.”
“This Ace is a good one. Always clean and well-organized, with friendly staff. We come here regularly and really appreciate the personal touch of a local hardware store.”
“Friendly and helpful staff. Convenient location. The staff have excellent listening skills and take the time to understand your need before they make a recommendation. They have earned "shop locally" loyalty.”
“As a newly-single mom I am relearning and learning how to do a variety of home repairs and home improvement projects. There are many hardware stores in Naperville, but only Ace takes the time to understand the need and provide options. Not one big box store did that for me this summer. I will always go to Ace.”
“Update: I’d like to update my previous review for Carlson Glass and Mirror. The repair took quite a while—two weeks for a small mirror—but the quality of the work and the price were absolutely amazing. I really appreciate this small business for their excellent craftsmanship. However, I believe they could speed up the process, and I would have been willing to pay extra for faster service. Overall, my experience was good, aside from the lengthy turnaround time.”
“I can't say enough good things about Ace Hardware! I recently got a flat tire and happened to pull into their parking lot. Even though I wasn't a customer at the time, the owner saw me and kindly sent two of his employees to help. They went above and beyond with their customer service, treating me with kindness and generosity. It's clear they truly care about their community. I will definitely be doing business here in the future. Great people!!”
“What's not to love when the conversation deals with inexpensive tools, gadgets and the like. It's possible many of their goods are produced overseas and if that's a bother, seek out online whiteboards that discuss all the American made items. Stopped in randomly to look around. Found a handy tool to clear a clogged sink(in seconds), a ridiculous amount of rubber bands and a set of tool box accessories, all of which were on sale. There is always some sort of price reductions on useful items you may not (necessarily) need but could have use for one day. With that said, also got some solar pathway pucks for the yard. As seen on TV quality. If you have one of these local to you, it's worth joining their loyalty perks program so you stay up-to-date on price breaks. If you're in the services/ trades, they have many of your needs and offer used equipment for sale.”

Great people to deal with.I highly recommend to check out woodcraft if haven’t been there.”
“Receptionist very helpful - put me immediately in the section of the store where I found the type of faucet I was trying to replace.
Chad Fuko - very professional, knew his product thoroughly. Chad took one look at my faucet picture and said “Devonshire - $381.29” I never thought I was going to find my 16-year old faucet. Chad nailed it in 1 minute. Two forms filled out via email, and I had my faucet - and a very happy wife. Doesn’t get any better than that.”
“Ideally located hardware store in the southern end of Elmhurst for quick supplies & hardware for your home of commercial space repairs….
Very helpful & friendly staff & great customer service…”
“I’ve been here several times for various home improvement items, garden tools or plants, and even cleaning products (better prices than Amazon!) and this last time I was really impressed by how helpful Scott was in lumber. He helped me find exactly what I needed, even found an alternative option for a 2 x 2 I needed in cedar, and made the cuts for me perfectly. I really appreciated it and my potato box I’m making is coming along nicely. Thanks again!”

715 Fort Hill Dr, Naperville“Excellent product with good quality and good prices and employees very helpful 10/10! The only bad thing is the rebait that you have to mail the receipts and I would like it if it were to be like Walgreens app, everyone having their account and their saving rewards in the app and could use them anytime!”
7:30AM - 7PM
5035 Ace Ln, Naperville“Always greeted when we come in. Staff always ask what they can help us with. They sell key fobs and program them.Recently ordered a key fob.. cheaper then the dealer... Joe did the setup. 5 minutes later key fob failed. He was on the phone with the manufacturer right away! New one to be sent out. But Joe calls me 5 minutes later and says another one was located!!! Joe programmed the new one and made sure it was working. Even found out the first one was defective from the manufacturer. His professionalism and customer service is very much appreciated!”
“Another great experience at Alexander Equipment. Stopped in the drop off and schedule a repair to my older back pack blower and was greated with a friendly smile and quick service. Gentleman at the counter helped me right away and within 10 min my old blower was good as new... I refused to go to Russo's and the old Kipps.. these guys at Alexander are the tops.. will always go here first for repair and parts...”
