Des Plaines Ace Hardware

Possibly the largest and most varied stocked Ace in the area.

I was shocked when I walked in by how big the store was, it seems to go on and on.

Each area of the store is well marked Which makes it easy to find what you need quickly.

I was looking for a simple switch and after about 10 minutes of Looking, I found Angelo and he found the switch with his seconds. He was the helpful hardware man.

Convenient location, plenty of parking and well stocked, can you ask for anything more?

And, IT’S VETERAN OWNED!!!!!!!!!

Best Ace I have been to in the NW Burbs

The store is bigger than it looks from outside. Good variety though expensive. You pay for the convenience of a local neighborhood store.

Staff was knowledgeable. Got exactly what I needed.

They in fact do honor the craftsman warranty. They are very kind and polite at this location I would highly recommend this ace hardware to anybody

Love this store. Everyone that I've encountered has been friendly and more than willing to help. Will come again and again! Thanks!

Great local store to shop at! Me and my niece stopped by during Black Friday. Employees were a great help, especially Angelo and Bill. They came right to the rescue when both I and my niece struggled to find Yeti Tumblers. Will be visiting again! Thank you Ace!

What a phenomenal reopening! So many helpful people and a HUGE selection. Most anything you need for your home or garden is here. Great prices and deals!!!

Super nice staff, very helpful!

The Des Plaines location is amazing! The customer service is one of a kind. Everyone is so knowledgeable. We came from a big name brand store where noone had any idea what we were looking for. The moment we walked in we were greeted by so many employees and immediately helped.

Great products.Helpful staff

Clean, organized local hardware store. The employees seem personable and well trained. They always seem to have things that I need. A little bit overpriced IMO but would recommend.

Very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.

Glad this place moved into the neighborhood. The staff are mostly very nice and there is a great selection of most everything one could need there. I will always go to a local owned ACE before I go to the others.

I needed help that required some special attention - the manager called me when what I needed came in - this is indeed the Helpful Place! This is my new "go to" first stop. The store is organized well for getting what you need for an easy in and out - you can tell the employees are trained well to greet you when you come in and offer to provide help.

This is my go-to place as I work to get away from the big box stores like Home Depot or online monsters like Amazon.com. A friendly, super-knowledgeable team staffed by people who actually work with their hands and know how to do stuff.

I've walked in for as little as $4.00 in nuts and bolts hardware and have made a point of buying my Craftsmen tools here as Sears is no longer an option.

They're local, have a team that knows customer service, and have good prices to boot! Why would you go anywhere else?

AMAZING customer service - came in with an odd request, and staff could not have been nicer trying to accommodate! This will continue to be my go-to place, so glad they are in town!

Needed a hacksaw blade. It's 0.2 miles from my house. Figured I'll walk over. When l moved in this location was an A&P supermarket. Then an auto part store. Ah three must be the charm. And it was.
The guy at the front was friendly and answered my question. Got my hacksaw blade and some vise grips. Not on the list. Will return for a scout mission. And hope to be a steady customer

Great place and friendly employees. I take the store all the time. Appreciate the hospitality.

They know what they are doing, are so helpful and friendly! I love having a true neighborhood feel and this Ace delivers. I'll gladly pay a bit more for the service and expertise.
