River Falls Ace Hardware

I have always enjoyed going to the hardware store, often a needed break during a frustrating project to pick up parts or get a few tips and ideas to get things done around the house. The Ace in River Falls has been awesome on all accounts, they are always there when I need something.
The Ace in River Falls has also been a huge supporter of our local Scouts, getting in supplies the boys need for the Pinewood derby cars and inviting them over to help with the dog stand at their open house giving the boys a great chance to be involved and earn a few bucks for summer camp.
I Can’t imagine a better place, then ACE! Thanks for being such a great part of our community!

I go here for all my small engine repair needs and these guys are the best. Honest work and fair pricing!

I am a DIY-​er. As a female, I feel as if the staff is thinking when I walk in, «What the heck is *she* doing here, looking at plumbing parts?!» The owner is cranky, too. I entered the store recently, headed right for the spray paint. I knew what I needed because I had bought the same product there just the day before. The owner spat at me, «Can I help you» in an aggressive way. I said, «Nope, I’m good.» He said, loudly, «What?» And I said, louder, «No, I know what I’m looking for, thanks.» And he said in a cantankerous, p*ssed off kind of way, «Well, are you SURE?» Again, I felt like he was implying that because I have a uterus, I couldn’t possibly know where items are or what I even need. I will NOT be shopping there ever again. Which is a shame because I generally try to shop local. I am thinking about sending an anonymous letter to them, expressing my feelings and experiences (not a rant).

One of my joys in life is going to the hardware store. I like to wander around and hunt for all of the things on my list. The River Falls Ace Hardware is one of the best hardware stores I have ever been to. There is always lot of help if you need to find some oddball bolt or part. The staff all have radios and will locate anything you need in seconds. The did expand some and now have more square feet of hardware. This location also has an excellent rental selection. I have rented many items from them over the years.
Only reason they lost a star is for their pricing on some of their items is a little bit on the aggressive side. I don’t expect them to be Menards cheap but they could try to at least price things a little bit more affordable.
