Kamuela Ace Hdwe & Crafts - Waimea, Hawaii

Lots of selection, helpful staff, good sales, but, watch for different prices on the shelf vs at the checkout. 2 out of 6 items we bought rang out over 30% higher than the shelf price, we never noticed until we were dozens of miles away, not worth going back for the 8 bucks.

“The Ace Promise” - lol, ya right.

Maybe I misunderstood what the definition of the word promise is.

I bought three sprinkler timers. One went bad after just five months. I was about to purchase the replacement when I happened to read the fine print on the back of the replacement item.

You decide - here’s what it says on the back of the box:

The Ace promise - if this Ace product, when used for its intended purpose, fails to give you complete satisfaction, return the item to the Ace Hardware store where it was purchased for free replacement of the same or similar item.

After waiting half an hour for them to honor this promise, I decided my time was more valuable than arguing over the cost of a sprinkler timer. Disappointing that Ace is not an honest or honorable company.

Home Depot, your service and prices are better. I’ll always head your way from now on!

Bye-bye, Ace in Kamuela.

The Ace Hardware in Kamuela, Big Island usually has whatever I'm looking for from art supplies to plumbing supplies. The staff is welcoming and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this business.

Mary and Pat deserve employee of the month award! The spring in my friend’s knee scooter broke, and they troubleshooted the problem and fixed the scooter right at closing time. They are kind people and handy to boot. Thank you, Mary and Pat!

Like how the new renovations is making the store look. Different from what it was but change is cool

The best hardware- garden-craft store from Waimea to Hilo. Staff helpful & knowledgeable. Organized stock. Cruise the aisles & you will find lots of useful items that ordinary hardware stores don't have. Dont miss little stuff by checkout: need a good sunglass leash or back scratcher?

The staff here are so friendly and very helpful. We needed to buy paint and supplies for painting, and they were very gracious when assisting us. Wonderful little hardware store!

Love the super friendly and motivated staff at this Ace. Literally been shopping for miscellaneous... STUFF there since I was 10 years old, eagerly blowing my weekly paper route salary - sixty two bucks!, if I remember correctly - on frivolous items that I "really needed"... for one of my many hair brained ideas. The one that I remember most - and most fondly - was the steep and scary water slides that I precariously arranged on small hills in pastures nearby my home. Each slightly more perilous than the last, and limited only by the distance and height I could achieve by daisy chaining the bought or otherwise acquired garden hoses, the number of which steadily growing with each successive slide project. If id have been successful at cajoling the few friends I had nearby into landing their own paper routes or some similar source of weekly pocket money with which to purchase candy and other such supplies necessary for boys to have adequate entertainment during summer breaks, id of no doubt started extracting a percentage (a reasonable percentage, of course) of their wealth in the form of waterslide tickets and would surely be an amusement park mogul by now.
Alas, that never came to pass, and now I spend my free time writing over-long reviews of local businesses, hiking trails, and beaches. Oh well, maybe there's still time!
