It’s so nice to get real service again in a “small box” atmosphere. Although Ace is a national company, the small store venue is preferable to me. The staff is helpful and adequate, unlike the “big box” warehouses. We had a True Value store several years ago, but that was run out of business by Home Base, which in turn went out of business, leaving us with two “big box” stores to choose from (not much choice). So thanks to whoever took the chance on this ACE franchise. I appreciate it. Mike Dahlstrom Everett
