Helpful staff, good rewards program. Maybe a little pricier than the Big Box stores, but not always. Worth it to know if I ask where to find something the staff will know.

If you search online for a particular item, this ace will say they have it, you drive there and they dont have it. Probably not the fault of this particular ace but quite frustrating. The place is kind of a disorganized mess BUT the staff is very proactive in trying to be helpful.Ive gone there 3 times due to the site saying this location had what i was looking for and 3 times they did not. Corporate needs to fix this because it teflects poorly on this particular Ace and i can tell by the care and positive attitude of the staff, it puts them on the spot which is not fair. The staff. Their willingness to try to help and attitude deserve 5 stars!!

They have what the others dont usually. The right furnace filter for example. Thank-you.

Called yesterday, to see if Philips Ace had a product I was looking for. They did and offered to reserve it since it was the last one until I was able to pickup it up.I picked it up today and was very satisfied.

Very friendly and helpful. Cashier went out of her way to make sure we redeemed our $5 coupon and was so pleasant. My husband and I gave up on Menards a year ago and have opted for Ace Hardware. Ace believes in civil liberties.

Nice small town hardware store. Very friendly staff, eager to help and answer any questions. Prices are just a tad bit higher, and hours of business arent as good as big boxes hardware stores, but knowledge of the staff and helpfulness make it worth it.

Review №22

I always feel like Im stepping a bit into the past in here, but in a great way. They are always well staffed with knowledgeable people. Yes you may be able to get 25 screws cheaper at a big box store, but you wont get the help you need, nor the quality of merchandise. Ace tends to carry things that help you fix what needs to be fixed, but only 1 time instead of over and over because of product failure. I am willing to spend a little more to get the help I need finding the right fix the first time.

This ace is well stocked, and they are very friendly to get help with your needs. Some other ace hardware stores need to learn from this store.

I always find excellent service at Ace Hardware in Valparaiso. Very helpful and knowledgeable people, and it is the place to go to find quality products, and hard to find items at a fair price. I purchased a grill there during these difficult stay- at-home times. They made it easy to order over the phone, then assemble and deliver within a few days.

Review №32

I love a good old hardware store where they have everything for a resonable price and you dont have to walk a mile or two inside the store to get whatever it is you need. And the best part is that there are real people there who actually ask if they can help. So much better than the big box places. I really apprecite that. Phillips Ace Hardware is just such a place. I went in, got what i needed and got out. No endless searching and wandering about. There was actually somebody readily available to help. Excellent. I highly recommend this place.

Being business neighbors and shopping for our business and personal needs, our experience at Phillip’s Ace Hardware is always a five star experience! The store ownership and staff consistently offer superior customer service and a great willingness to go above and beyond to please their customers!!!! We shop here very regularly and always prefer to shop here, whenever possible! There are not many businesses that can compare to this high level of customer service! The selection in store is also very extensive!!!! Love this store and their team!

Went in here to have keys made, and had never been here before. We loved this place! They had everything, and then a little more! They had all the stuff a normal Ace has... and then they had a Fannie May food area, a Hallmark area, and cool gift section, Carhartt Clothing, scout uniforms, Yeti brand coolers, and more than I can even remember! It had a cool old school neighborhood feel to it, and it made me think of the hardware stores I went to as a kid with my Dad. Everyone was super friendly! And my cut keys worked perfectly!

I went to this Ace today looking for a water testing kit for my Water Softener. The man who helped me was absolutely WONDERFUL! He was so helpful and knew exactly what I needed. I was so impressed that I then asked about the Tick treatment I needed for my property. Again he went out of his way to find me what I needed and also had another associate assist. She was checking products on the internet as well as reading labels to get me exactly what I needed to effectively treat my yard! Not once did they seem bothered or that I was taking up too much of their time and the store was VERY busy! I will definitely be back to shop again! The customer service and availability of products was phenomenal!!! Keep up the great work!!!

Helpful and nice staff. I would have given 5 stars, but prices are definitely on the high side. Honestly though if Menards was closer, I wouldve gone there instead. Sorry Ace.

Mrs. Philips started a wonderful gift shop in this Ace Hardware. They have a beautiful selection of Swarvski crystal and Fanny May Candy. Also a good section of brand name candles among many other gift ideas.Like all Ace Hardware stores they have hardware, many times what you cant find elsewhere, cardhart cloths, boy scout and Cub scout supplies,home and garden and propane refilling station. Family owned and operated. One of my favorite stores.

2 older gentlemen, one named Roy and the other one, I am sorry I did not get.They worked in the key dept. They were so helpful and patient with me and helped me so much to pick out the right tool. If it was not for them taking the time out to help me I probably would of made several trips up there. Thanks for the great customer service, somehow in this day and age sadly its missing from a lot of businesses.

Staff are extremely helpful and friendly. I needed a nut for my guitar and three members of the team were on the case looking everywhere for something that would fit. Even though I only racked up a bill of 16 cents, I was treated with the same customer service and friendliness that I would expect with a much larger purchase. Philips Ace Hardware is there to help no matter how big or small your endeavor. Thats exactly why I will always be a repeat customer.

There are so many times Ive gone here, and the staff has somehow found exactly what I needed for a DIY project, when I didnt have a clue when I walked in the door. Totally love this place. Go there whenever I can. Amazing people at a store that has just about anything a DIYer needs.

They always seem to have what the other larger stores dont. The service here is top notch. Staff is esger to help and are personable. They seem to take pride in their work and enjoy being there and talking with you. Pretty unique really. Prices are a little high but its worth knowing youll get what you need. Their selection of clothing is cool too because they ACTUALLY sell TALL sizes! Cant beat that if your a sasquatch like me.;^)👍
