Smaller than home depot, but more helpful staff The staff at Palo Alto Hardware greets you when you enter, and asks how they can help you. They walk you over to the items that you are looking for, instead of just telling you where to go. The staff seems knowledgeable about where things are located, but I think that some of them have little experience in actually using the items. PROS: convenient location, variety of goods CONS: need more sophisticated sales people with larger knowledge base

This is what a neighborhood store should be like! Palo Alto (Ace) Hardware is a terrific store, largely because it is well-staffed with knowledgeable employees. The store offers a wide-array of hardware, garden, electrical, plumbing, and housewares products...although the size of the store precludes it from having the breadth or depth of products that the big-box home improvement stores have.

Knowledgeable and personable help Palo Alto hardware has knowledgeable and nice staff. No question or solution is too small for them. They made an .11 cent sale and made my Christmas tree work.

Palo Alto Hardware Palo Alto Hardware has competitive prices with great service. You cannot past the front registers without getting quick help. PA Hardware is much more efficient than the giant home improvement stores. They also have an excellent knife sharpening service.

Palo Alto Hardware Palo Alto Hardware has a variety of hardware products. The store is relatively easy to find because it is on Alma. However, because of the store's proximity to downtown, parking can be quite difficult. The staff here is great and they are usually very courteous to the customers. This store is not the cheapest, you could probably find the same products at Home Depot or something for a little bit cheaper.
