Its a hardware store AND a hobby shop!!! If I lived closer my bank account would be in trouble! Very nice and helpful staff, and a great little local treasure. They have a seriously impressive amount of on-hand RC kits and accessories. Cars, planes, boats and more. Im not a train guy, but if you want it, Id bet they have that in stock, too. Its worth the trip!
One of my favorite places to shop. Some of the nicest and most helpful people. When I bought my first RC their years ago Walter showed me all about them on one of his own out in the parking lot. Always try to support walters when I can.
A fantastic hardware store with a large selection of hobby supplies. First shop I was able to find nitro fuel gallons in a long time!
This was his fathers run business they are very helpful very knowledgeable remodeled the whole building You can find it youll find it at Walters
Great customer service I got there at 1:30 pm they close at 2 by the time they closed I purchased a new electric rc car was shown in person how it performed and understood how to charge it and operate it. I Highly recommend shopping here!👌🏻
Not only do you have old time hardware store with knowledgeable staff its the areas best hobby shop! Trains and r/c galore with a great styrene corner!
Has a little bit of EVERYTHING for very cheap! NICEST HARDWARE STORE Ive ever seen!
Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. In and out with what I needed in no time
Walters Hardware is a excellent store to get your merchandise from hobbies and other important items that you might need and I will be shopping for other items i will need and very polite employees that work there and they will help you if you need their help.
Ive been to Walters a number of times now, and never come away disappointed. I am primarily in for rc truck parts, but they have basically everything youd need for most every home improvement project or hobby. The staff are super friendly, always ready to help you find what you are looking for or recommend the part(s) you need based on what youre up to. Plenty of hobby things to, including g planes, trains and all sorts of rc trucks. Prices are the best Ive found around, including online for everything Ive bought. Highly recommend this place!
Lots of fun toys and nice people that work there
If you need plumbing parts they are the best.
Nice old fashioned hardware store. Helpful staff ...good parking. If you cant find it at the big box stores Walters can help you.
Great local hardware store...better than the big box stores. Much better service.
I and a few members of my family were shopping I was asking questions about fixing a well problem in a snobby voice a mean little man said we dont know anything about well water systems when I asked about a multi washer kit because I didnt know which one I needed, I was asked to leave the store in a very rude manor. I didnt understand why my money wasnt good enough until I overheard a staff member say we dont need their sort here anyways scares away good people I have filed a complaint with the BBB.
It is difficult for me to rate a place so poorly. This spot earned it. Do they have some niche hobby/hardware? Sure. They also have an atmosphere of misogyny that is so obnoxious that they wouldnt even acknowledge the female with me. She was completely ignored, the salesperson wouldnt even look at the piece she was trying to replace. It goes without saying but they dont deserve your money or your business.
Great selections, personal assistance, friendly and courteous,neither lowes or home depot can compete with Walters this place deserves a must visit. You will not be disappointed
This place is awesome. They have rc cars and trucks with parts. Model airplanes of multiple sizes and parts motors to go along with it, plus a great equipped hardware store at the same time. friendly people, good service. I recommend them for sure.
All of ur hobby needs in one place and much more, experienced staff. Helped fix my sons RC car in a matter of minutes. They are the best around. Check them out!!
The first time I went there the older taller guy was a lot of help with my rc car I needed a lot of parts, the second time today I went there needing parts again and alot of them so I let a lot of customers a head of me, but when the smaller older guy helped me this time he seemed extremely impatient, especially that I needed two different gears, he said something under his breath as he walked away so I grab my rc car and walked out drove 1 1/2 for parts, and to a place were they actually like there job and treat people like they want to purchase something from there establishment, this really grinded my gears.
Place got everything for your hobbies from littlest to the biggest things. Awesome customer service, I have no complaints at all, keeps me happy though these harsh times, eveeytime I go there it is best customer service I ever experienced. Please keep it up!!!!
Went for an RC car for my son. Employee showed and helped us out with all out needs. Second to none.
Always a favorite store of ours for years. Best hobby place around! Nothing else available anymore in nepa.
My all time favorite place to go for anything and everything home improvement.Walters is also entertaining with all of their trains, planes, and automobiles.Karen,Walter,and Scott are the best.They know everything that youll need for any project- and theyre all incredibly nice people.You wont find any of this at Home Depot up the road. The prices are the same as theirs, and its just worth the personalized service that youll find here.
Great customer service and an excellent selection of RC cars and parts
Excellent place for all your air, land and water radio controlled vehicle needs.
Found this AWESOME store when i found out The Train Shoppe was no longer open while sitting in their parking lot ( thanks for that google )9. We walked in & myself, my 18yr old son & his friend, ( the boys dont get excited over much ) but their faces said it all! My son said WOW a... or COOL its a... as he named off the names of the VERY B#f Military airplanes that hung from the ceiling. I mannaged to leave only spending a couple $ on the special model glue he needed. And i got the screws i forgot i needed. My son is already taking about going back. I already told my friend about this store since his son wants to get into RC cars.If you like models or trains this place is for you!
Always an excellent place to go for all you RC plane needs. What a great group of people.
Have everything I need great store very good staff
Incredibly limited fpv quad selection. Every time I stop in, there is never any new components. Over heard a customer asking about drones and the owner completely dismissed them, which explains that. Its a shame seeing the only other employee on the rc side likes them a lot. Now for cars (mainly arrma, traxxas, axial, and a few horizon hobby products) they do have a nice selection of newer popular vehicles and parts. The hardware section also is good, and the checkout lady is very kind. They most always have what you need.
Always have what you need ...
They take care of all my maintenance needs every time im there
First class professional
Very helpful with quite a large variety to select from considering it is a small hardware store!
Love the place. Reminds me of the great hardware stores of the be past.
Great place for the hobbyist. Very knowledgeable and fair prices. Will definitely be back....thank you.

I love walters Hobby shop. Has everything you need. And walters very experienced with model trains.
I needed two lionel train controllers for my Standard guage trains,.Nobody to include a hobby shop would have anything that worked on a 1930s Steam locomotive ...i stoped in at 3:40 PM christmas eve and had what i needed in ten minutes out the DoorGuess what he did
Very helpful and friendly people good selection of RC products

Friendly staff, and a great place if you enjoy model trains or planes. My daughter loved seeing all the hobby shop things and playing with the little Thomas the Train train tables. And the older man who helped up was so kind, walking around with my daughter who took right to him.

Service. A rare commodity anymore
Just stopped here for the first time and will definitely be back. They went out of their way to help and my purchase couldnt have been smaller. They could have easily said they couldnt help and sent me on my way. This is why we should shop local.
Such awesome people. VA was given the 5 star treatment during their visit. I can not not express how much I appreciate this store.
Great place... Very helpful, courteous and professionalstaff. I was here getting plumbing supplies for my mom, staff was very helpful in getting correct parts I needed.
