Great Hardware Handy Service

by robertfinkle at Citysearch

Great friendly people. Knew exactly what I needed even though I didnt know the name of the widget I was trying to replace. Makes me wish all stores had genuine service like this!

Helping a friend out in Wallingford with a repair, even though I dont live in the area I will return here if I ever need help!

These Guys Know Everything

by annikaam at Citysearch

I came in feeling stupid, since I needed a part for our sink that I didn't bring with me and didn't know what it was called. One of the staff not only found it for me, but recommended some tape that worked beautifully when wrapped around the handle, and I got an inexpensive wrench to put it all together. Yay!

• Pros: clever staff, stocks of everything, great finds
• Cons: wish it was open late

the judge

by mickyboy57 at Citysearch

The minute I walked through the door I was asked if I needed any help. This fairly small store seemed loaded with most things any urban denizen would require. There was the usual hardware, necessary plumbing, basic electrical, garden items, tools, alot of painting supplies and paint and even a bit of household goods. They even post a bit of their history at the front counter (I was told they are now the oldest hardware in Seattle! After seeing the antique sleds and such hanging about, I believe it.). This is the kind of store every neighborhood needs and so few nowadays seem to have.

• Pros: helpful staff, merchandise variety, location
