We called ahead of time to see if they had any treestands for hunting. Was informed they had several out in the garden area. After we asked for help locating the stands, the employee showed us 2 left and said their inventory was way down from the year before with Covid and all. Wasted 40 min drive there to only leave with a Snickers bar.
The staff was super friendly and helpful. They helped me find the wing nut I need super quickly and the checkout was nice and set up for COVID safety. Ill definitely come here again next time Im in Iowa and need something. Also probably the cleanest and best lit Menards Ive been to. Great store.
Menards has an amazing selection of dog treats and dog food as well as other accessories but they dont carry Royal Canin dog food. So I went there for dog food they didnt have and left with lots of dog treats and bird feeders and bird seed. Ill just have to get my dog food elsewhere. But I do enjoy shopping at Menards especially without a mask.
Christina was wonderful help for picking and matching cabinets & counter tops
If your looking for goodDeals the place you should go is MexIco.
When theyre looking for a dehumidifier! Definitely found exactly what I was looking for
Love Menards Id rather go to Menards then the Mall.
Very poor customer service. receipt would not print checkers response was …..so. poor attitude to say the least
Wow....so disappointing. Went in for a couple cement board trim boards, ordered at the counter and paid, all went fine. Entered the yard for pick up, the guard no longer lets you in, but instead you scan your ticket for entrance. However, no indication on ticket, no map provided or no help from scanner where to find your items. After driving thru all areas where it made sense, but still couldn’t find, headed back to guard shack. He sent us off to the wrong location....back again at guard shack so he calls for assistance from an employee. 15 min later, still no help. Back into the store for a refund....and now we’re at Lowe’s where they actually help you. In and out in less than 10 minutes. Save big money at Menards.?.
The service was wonderful i was so amazed
With the 11% rebate on everything it makes shopping there worthwhile
Never going back rude manager and dont want to compansate for selling a defective item and drive all over.
Amazing place they have everything that you look for
They NEED MIRE TOOLS FOR WOMEN. Pink tools pink drills come on menards women fix things too. Also you need a rewards program
Love Menards there almost every day. Spending my rebates
Look I like Menards. If youre the type of person that is diligent when it comes to rebates youll almost always be rewarded with shopping at Menards especially if they have a sale going on.
Would have been more stars if someone had helped me load the 24 4x4x8 pressure treated posts and 8 bags of concrete. But no it took 3 employees to help the pretty blonde load 6 bags of mulch.
Great help in Paints. Much better here than in Ankeny store.
Very helpful. Im expanding my skill set. Put tile in kitchen for the first time. Patrick was very informative and helped me get started.
They always have what I need and 11% rebate. Get you some of that !.
Very nice store. Clean and organized.
Love this store. Everyone is always so helpful.
Great selection and prices. They even have an abundance of Fancy Feast cat food! Unlike most Hy-Vee locations, they Suck. Hail Fareway!
Great place!! Only drawback is the rebate program. Rather they just cut the price and save the costumers the hassle of applying for the rebates.
Very poor customer service. Would not price match even though we had the exact same item found at Home Depot. Just because it wasnt in stock. Not only was it only 40 dollars they also lost 300 dollars in sales due to me not purchasing any of the other items I had in the cart. Will not go back. I will shop somewhere else. Hope the 40 dollars was worth it.
Very good, Asked someone to help me find the ACs. He was very helpful. Then I wasnt sure if I could lift the AC off the shelf myself and into a cart. Went down one asile and another associate was more then happy to help me!
A lot of bad wood that you have to go through just to get the good straight boards
Good price. 11 percent off.
This Menards located in Altoona by far exceeds the one on 14th off Army post rd. I dont know that i would return to that atore ever. Altoona location has a lot more competent employees and all around a way better store. An example that all Menards should strive to be like.
Amazing how bear some of the shelves were for the things we needed.
With enterprise a few items and buy some household goods. Saw the garden hose reel I wanted and noticed it was a little higher priced it at Home Depot. I asked the cashier if we could price match it. She brought over a manager and even though it was the same unit, same brand, same specs, They would not price match it because it had a different model number. Manufacturers do this so that stores that offer a price match guarantee can get away with not price matching. Funk should be aware of that before heading to stores that offer price match guarantee. I didn’t really like Menards before still really don’t like Menards.
Very friendly and helpful staff.
Fairly cheap compared to other similar stores.
Was there today and no one knows how to give me a quick connect for a air hose and a stucco sprayer. I personally think they would be more trained to assist folks after being at one department and then told to go to plumbing where that person wasnt able to assist me. I went back to where I was at and a lady tried her best but upon getting home it wasnt the right thing I needed. Ugh.
Friendly folks, willing to help and available!
Menards is a group of piglets in a hog house. The employees seem generally unfamiliar when asked questions of product placement. Helpful, but not really. Then there exists the Mask Police, had my mask slip down for a few moments while riding in a handicapped cart. Then a young worker hunted me down and demanded that I place my mask over my face while in the store. I informed him that my mask had slipped down while driving the cart and that I had issues breathing. Awfully invasive and rude.
Its menards. Ok staff can be off and on. Sometimes helpful and others look at you like what do you want
I love the Clarence sales end caps they have at Menards in Altoona Iowa I always find awesome deals at bottom dollar prices things that you would never expect to find for just a few dollars. Im always picking up bargains.
Not a bad store, convenient location. Wish their website matched up products with aisle numbers like Lowes.
Its great place to shop. Very clean and the associates are helpful and friendly
I had a good experience tonight. Got help from a guy in hardware. He helped me out by finding the right tool.
Bought flooring for camper wrong size wont return because it had a red mark never taken out of vehicle. Run from that store
Recently bought a snow blower from Menards. Only had it for 10 days and used it less than 10 minutes before drive cable broke due to someone assembling it wrong. All Menards says is sorry about your luck, here’s a number to a repair shop. I had to rent a truck from Menards to get the snow blower home and now they want me to rent another to drop it off at a repair shop then again to get it home when it’s done. I’ll be shopping elsewhere from now on.
They were open when everyone lost power. Help when all of us inside the store needed it the most. Holding to a mask policy early on, to try to keep everyone safe makes me happy to come back
Got what I needed.. but had to find a different person to help.. wish they could do in store transfer so I could get everything from 1 store.. doesnt make sense to me
Have a project, spring clean up, maintenance? Then they are the store for you.
Disappointed. Needed plywood cut for a home improvement project. They wouldnt do it. I went across the street to Lowes. Very helpful!
Much better customer service and cleaner than Home Depot. Not as good as Lowes however.
Great place to shop
Clean, easy to find things
The customer service rep, Ashleigh is the ONLY reason I can give this store 5 stars.I purchased several fence posts and confirmed multiple times that they had them in stock prior to paying. I went ahead and paid over the phone and showed up that evening to pick up the posts.It turns out they only had about half of what I just purchased that day in stock. I was so frustrated and about to just get all my money back and go elsewhere when Ashleigh fixed ALL of this. She went above and beyond for me by taking the menards rental truck to Clive, picking up their stock, and brought it back to the Altoona store so I didn’t have to get a refund and purchase the product at a different menards store.
Im a handyman so I love Menards. Im old with bad knees so I dont appreciate the excessive walking (my problem). Great selection though and great staff.
And they have a good selection on most of the things that youll need for home projects. However staff is not overly experienced or knowledgeable in some of the areas that I would think they should be.
I love Menards. 95%of the time you can always find the help you need. And if that employee cant help you they find someone.Menards would keep me broke if I worked there n learned of more things I need to do the many projects I have steering around in my head.Thank you Menards n all their employees in the store, lumber yard or garden area. Thank you all.
Saved big money you betcha.Cmon now master rebated lol
Vinyl plank flooring installation recommend Stretch flooring @Menards 👍
Nice family service
I always enjoy going thereFriendly staff, clean store and they have everything you need.
It was fast and easy to get what I needed thanks
Great prices.
I dont like masks this is stupid.
They didnt have the sizes of plywood that I needed, so I had to purchase additional material and cut it down, thereby wasting my time and money. They also did not have any identification numbers on the material, again wasting my time and holding up other customers in the checkout line while the clerk called someone over to look up the numbers.
My go to place for building materials
Very helpful and polite
The establishment was worthy of a return visit Ill be there in the next few days
Was in and out with no problems. Our only requirement was to have a mask. If you did not have one they had them there to buy for a dollar each, reasonable and convenient.
Got a gallon of paint. People were friendly & helpful.
Good guy but a little free with this words. Priced right too.
We have been looking for trim for the new room we built & every Menards is out of it.
Wes was fantastic to work with, friendly
Love shopping here! Everyone is masked. I will find more things to buy there now.
We came to pick up all of our deck materials, not knowing we needed to pick all of the materials ourselves (which was diappointing not knowing ahead of time). All of the guys in the decking material area went above & beyond to help us get everything on our list! And (I think Tyler?)in the hardware deaprtment helped us get all the rest of the parts on our list along with the bags of concrete (outside of his area) and helped us load them in our trailer went way above & beyond for us!! It was greatly appreciated! Thank you for the great customer service guys!!
Got in and out quickly.Salesman was very helpful.
Menards is my Walmart.
I think this will be the last time I make Menards my primary home improvement store. I have pretty much remodeled my house from the ground up. During the last few years of the home remodeling projects I have came to Menards seeking advice from what I thought was advertised as a DIY store. Well apparently not. When you ask employees simple questions you get attitude and disrespect. Today was the final straw resulting in me leaving behind my entire shopping cart full of items to start the complete remodeling project in my bathroom. Id suggest if you have simple questions for a DIY project NOT to shop at Menards.
I went in for a couple of things and ended up getting several more things that werent on my list. 🙂 They just have so many things there.
Always have what we need awesome staff awesome prices
If give it 5 stars but masks are required so that limits my time I can shop. Because of health reasons I cannot wear a mask longer than 10 minutes
Had everything I went in for. Have to wear a mask. In and out quick.
But I got new utility knife and its broken. Wont hold blade. Just slides in and out
Menards is a place where you can get everything I need for your home and even some groceries their prices are reasonable
Want to throw a huge kudos out to Kat. I believe she is a front end manager. I had misplaced an order online and was not being able to get any resolution from Emily in customer service. The only time Emily would respond is after I would come in the store and Kat would reach out to her about the issue. Emily is a horrible customer service employee/horrible representation of Menards. Im grateful that there are kind people like Kat that go out of their way to get my order taken care of.
Friendly helpful the price of lumber is out of this world. But thats everywhere.
The menards corporation, is discriminating against people with disabilities. I have at best 50% the lung capacity of the average health person but in actuality its far from it. But because I wad born with a rare hearth defect. Im unable to ware a mask as I would quickly suffice. If this company policy of discrimination dont end soon. I entend to sue.
Menards are always my favorite place to shop people are great and they return policy is amazing 🙌
I think menards ranks right up there like HyVee with a smile in every aisle.
I am a big fan of menards.
Like always spent much.
I only needed a few things. They were in stock, reasonably priced, and the store was well staffed. Got in, got help, got my stuff, and out the door I went.
Helpful employees and good products
Great place 👌
Appreciate them requiring masks and employees were very helpful for quick in and out.
Very well kept store
The store has everything I need. In and out.
They have the things that my wifey and I need to fix the house with
I appreciate the mask policy and wish more companies had similar policies.
