I needed a potato ricer for a cooking class. We checked 4 stores before I googled. Website said in stock, pick up today. Sent husband to get it. One person said they didn’t know what it was (fair). 2nd person said they don’t carry them. Husband came home and told me. I ordered it for pick up and within 3 minutes I had the email that it was ready for pick up so we had to drive all the way back over there. Extremely frustrating and disappointing.

Store manager Aaron doesn't know customer service. Online shows 4, show up to buy and there is only the floor model with peeling labels, filthy and been in the elements for God knows how long so we asked for a discount and we're completely ignored. Asked for a manager (Aaron) who never even acknowledged us and just said no. How unprofessional. I emailed as they asked and they have not responded.

Besides having absolutely anything you can possibly need, they also have the most caring and helpful personal I ever encountered in a store. I went there this morning with my little ones. Aaron helped me to find everything I was looking for and helped me to bring everything to my trunk. He was a life saver. Also the ladies at the cash register, super helpful too. You guys made my day!.

So grateful for the customer service I experienced recently. Almost immediately after I entered the store with my two young kids and scooter in tow I was greeted by an employee. Two employees took the scooter from me, found the right bolt thingy and put it in for me. Handed me the envelope I used to pay, $1???? (Can you believe that?) Also the young man at the register entertained my kiddos with a mouse trap trick. I honestly left with my heart so full. That won't happen at a big box store. Shop local.

Very disappointed. We dropped off our chainsaw (which we purchased from them) we got the run around for a week about when it would be fixed the last timeframe we heard was they could get to it later next weekWe ordered the part ourselves and called to say we would pick it up in a couple of days as we were out of town and that we did not want it fixedWe arrived to find out they fixed our chainsaw unauthorized. For 4 times the cost of the part we orderedNow we are unable to pickup ouri chainsaw without paying the exorbitant price

We’ve shopped at Ace Hardware here in Brainerd both personally and professionally. They are very pleasant and very helpful to work with.

Everyone I worked with refused to listen to me, they wouldn’t return or exchange a $105 purchase because there wasn’t a ā€œmanagerā€ there, which makes no sense - who closes the store, counts your money, you mean after a certain time you can’t do returns?I had a defective drill and all I wanted originally was to return the defective item and upgrade to a better one but the staff couldn’t wrap their minds around that, had to call their manager over the phoneUltimately they said they couldn’t help me and asked me to come back another day. I live 45 miles away so I had to make ANOTHER trip in and I asked for my money to be returned.I’ll never shop here again. No one here was helpful.

Ace always seems to have what I need and at an excellent price. I like to use their buy online pick-up in store for expedience.

Bill W is the bomb. < $1 repair instead of replacing my discontinued toilet! Brains Ace is the place!

Had trouble finding metric stainless steel bolts of a specific size for an outdoor project. The project parts came metric. So I stopped at Ace while in Brainerd. Got good service and the stainless M8s.

After spending an hour in a big box store and not finding what I needed, I went to Ace. They had exactly what I needed and I was in and out in less than 5 minutes. My first stop from now on.

It's the go to place for hardware. They also have Leaning Tree Greeting cards. Today it was for a shop wet/dry vac filter. Menards - no, Home Depot's web site so screwed up they probably can't locate 10 penny common nails. ACE HARWARE, of course they had it. Might of have been a few bucks more but very knowledgeable employees and so much less b.s.

There was a friendly greeting as I came through the door, "Hello, welcome to Ace. How can we help you?" I was in a hurry, so I described what I needed. The sales person took me right to what I was looking for. Grabbed what I needed, paid and just like that I'm back on the road. Thanks Ace!

I walk through the doors and I am greeted immediately and asked if they can help me find something. I'm in and out in a few minutes versus wandering through seemingly endless aisles in big box hardware stores.

Was treated very poorly by an employee yesterday, when I returned an item that was someone else's order, given to me by these same employees

Someone was right there to help me find everything I needed. They even went outside(in the rain!) To replace the bolt in my license plate. Now that's going above & beyond!
