I live in the area and have gone here out of desperation a total of probably 20 times over the last 5 years. The prices are legit double in some cases compared to big box stores. The older guys know what they are talking about, however, most times only the college kids are available and don’t know. Just a poor overall customer experience and I feel like I’ve been had when I look at my receipt each time. I much prefer Rounds Hardware up the street except the parking there is terrible. Your best best bet though is Home Depot or Lowe’s about 7 minutes away and seek out that one knowledgeable guy who is wandering the aisles. I know it can be painful but for the most part I don’t need help, I don’t need tips, I want the best product at the best price immediately with a return policy that is top notch.

We recently bought a house nearby and had a lot of painting and projects to do. We talked to Alan at the start and he agreed to give us a 10% discount going forward since we’d be buying a lot. We got all of our Benjamin Moore paint there and well as small hardware needs and our lawn mower and grill. Great quality, and there was always someone knowledgeable to ask about which product lines work best. I feel better about supporting a small business rather than Home Depot or Lowes. I still go to those big box stores for certain items, but I find them overwhelming. The prices are pretty much the same too.

This is pretty much my favorite store ever! I know almost nothing about hardware(my husband is the builder in the family), but every time I’ve gone into the store people have been helpful and ready to answer my questions. They’re never condescending, even when I ask dumb questions, and unlike people at Home Depot, they’re also well-informed about their products AND they’re not pushy. I’ve had folks there specifically point out the cheaper products to me if they’ve been better-suited for my needs. Great place!

This is my go-to hardware store in Stoneham. It has a wide open parking lot that’s easy to get in and out of. The isles are orderly and easily marked. A little cramped, but a great local hardware store. They call it a «Paint and Supply» store, but really it’s a hardware store with a decent paint section. Good selection of all kinds of things you need for your home. This place has saved my butt on a number of occasions. One time I needed a plunger(!) ASAP and was able to get one here — in and out the door under 60 seconds. Awesome.
