Benson Lumber & Hardware

"They would hire day labor from Labor Ready and similar places and work you like a dog for slave wages. Personally I would avoid any involvement that might sustain thier operations. That goes for any business practicing exploitative employment. It may be temporary day labor but it's still working Americans not a god dam cattle auction."

"The people are helpful. But the prices are steep. Worth it if you want to support a local business. Couldn't find this product at home Depot, Benson's had a whole shelf of it."

"Update 2.28.19: Ownership and management stepped up and did the right thing by refunding my money since they couldn't provide the product that I thought I was buying. It's clear that customer service is important to them. Original Review: Benjamin Moore makes their Regal Select paint in several different sheens including flat and matte. I showed the paint guy at the Derry store the tag from an old can of paint that I was trying to match. It clearly indicated flat paint, but I also said that I wanted flat at least twice. I didn't notice that he mixed up a quart of matte instead until the next day when I went to use it. I tried a small amount, but it was clearly different. I returned to Benson's to exchange it for the correct paint and the same paint guy then told me that they didn't have the flat, and that flat and matte are the same. I showed him the Benjamin Moore website which clearly showed two different products. All he kept saying was "flat and matte are the same thing" over and over despite the fact that Benjamin Moore says differently. I then requested a refund since he sold me a product that I did not request. He refused and continued to tell me they were the same, so I left a very unsatisfied customer."

"I came in looking for a very specific bolt size and was pleased with the outstanding service I got. The two sales reps I spoke with were polite and knew what they were talking about. They helped me find the correct bolt, and I only paid around $2 for it."

"Great store! I love the home town feel and everyone has extensive knowledge when I have any sort of project. I look forward to the experience and love that they take care of their neighbors. Free popcorn is not the only reason I come in, I come in because I work down the street and they are a locally owned and run business, just like my store! Thank you Benson's, my projects also thank you!"
