I called to ask about a Weber grill repair and got great service. They do not offer the service but called Weber customer service for me and got me the name of two places in CT. Can I just say Matt was awesome at RW Hine Ace. Matt called and then gave me the information. Now here is the shocker - I called Weber before I call RW Hine Ace and was told they don't offer any of that information. They can only trouble shoot your problem over the phone or send you instructions via email.

Not good customer service from Weber but GREAT customer service from Matt at RW Hine Ace Hardware. I will have to stop in and meet Matt the next time I'm in Cheshire which is once a month. This is why I like using small local stores because the art of customer service is still 'in business' so to speak. LOL

For a hardware store they had everything. Definitely helpful staff as well. I think in total 5 people asked me if they could help when all I needed was Allen keys.lol

I love Hines! They have the best employees! They are always helpful and know where to find the item that is needed. The paint section has knowledgeable people behind the counter that can mix up the right shade of color. This store is a hidden gem in our small town!

What a cool place. Came here when I needed a few screws that I didn't know if the big stores would carry. They made it super simple and the salesperson showed me exactly where they were. Much more simpler than walking down aisles and aisles in the big stores and spending time trying to find it. They also have a lot of other cool stuff in the store, too, so it's more than just a hardware store. Love it!
