Not many reviews for this place but frankly I was surprised to find ANY, just thought I would see...this sampling shows how people use Yelp to praise and to vent frustration both very nicely

    Granted I have limited experience, but these guys saved the day.

    Ikea furniture is European.  Hence, it comes with metric sized hardware.  Read: not easily replaced if lost.

    I needed a metric nut and bolt - 8mm.  This store had both.  No other hardware store in Manhattan that I visited had anything close.

    Such a random thing to write a review for but I had a great experience here.

    My husband spilled some soy sauce on our brand new couch that could only be cleaned with a non water based cleaning product.  When we bought the couch at Crate & Barrel I had asked if they had the cleaner but they did not.  I went to three stores at 9pm the night the spill happened and found nothing.  I went to three in the morning and found nothing.  I called Crate and Barrel who said I could find it at Home Depot or Bed, Bath, and Beyond and found nothing.

    On my defeated walk home I saw this teeny tiny little hardware store and almost didn't walk in.  But I figured - what the heck?  I am here anyway.  So I crossed the street and to my surprise they had something they thought would work!

    I took it home and held my breath while the product worked away and the stain is gone.  Great price and a great result.

    It should also be mentioned that the guy at the store does handy work for $50/hour anywhere in Manhattan.  He said that he has people you can call for recommendations.  I will comment on that if I decide to follow up and hire him!

    I went here to get several copies of keys.  Only half of them worked.  I went back to get the guy to redo them...after spending $20 on keys I couldn't use, I finally went to a locksmith to get the copies.  Of course the locksmith made copies that actually worked!
