I usually buy online because Im in a hurry, they online pickup in this Menards is in the furthest back corner of the store from the entrance, and it took about 20 minutes to pick up my item parking lot and back. Home Depot curbside pickup was quicker as was their in-store pickup, by a lot. Otherwise the store seems pretty nice and the shelves were fully stocked.

Do not order millwork or doors from this Menards. The older gentleman that works in the department does not care about customers or providing the best service. He wants to make the most money for Menards. If there are any promotions or sales he won’t tell you. If there is a expired sale tag up he will not honor the posted price. And say it’s expired can’t sell at that price. The policy is if the tag is up it’s valid. This was the worse experience at any Menards to date. Will be taking my future business elsewhere.

I go here all the time to get things that I need be it paints for my various projects. Wood for house related things. Or even metals for whatever you could need that for. They also have a decent plant section to the left side of the store. Overall a good store to shop at. Have most anything you could could need for home improvement or for other things. They have the tools for it too. The staff are also always a pleasure to talk with. never had I had someone who seemed unknowledgable or was rude. Overall a great store and I would recommend taking your business here.

I mostly shop Menards for their lawn and garden. They have everything I need any time I go in. Their prices are reasonable and they have a very good selection of plants and flowers. My only gripe is when they have their 11% rebate that you have to fill out a form and mail it in to receive the rebate. There should be a quicker way to process and receive the rebate, even better would be an instant 11% rebate.

Menards is great. You can always find what you need there and they carry the odd weird stuff that other places dont.

They have a huge bag of indoor/outdoor potting soil for a great price. I buy my dirt from here during growing season and it never lets me down. The cashier was super friendly.

A pretty good place to shop for all of your home repair needs. I find their cleaning supplies are cheaper than the grocery store. They have a good selection of automotive tools as well. Customer service has been very good whether its returns or rebates. A step up from Home Depot.

Ok, I like Menards a lot! They have a great grocery section! Lol!! I just say they are just OK when it come to things you might need to fix or repair your home. The fact they have grocery items especially when you do not want to make that extra trip. I have purchased many things from them and live the customer service. They way exceed Lowes and Home Depot. Good luck at finding help at those storesGo to Menards!!

A good Menards, although remodeling continues. Doesnt disrupt much of the indoor area though. Very helpful employees as is typical for Menards. Lately this store has been out of stock on odd items (specific electrical, plumbing and hardware parts.) Not sure if thats chain-wide or just a problem here.

They never have anything where it says it is anytime I go there, and all the employees have to say is that they have no clue where it would be then. Antioch location is so much better!!

Anything and everything you could need is here, The only thing they dont sell is a wall charger for your phone. So dont go looking. They sell the cable no problem there.

Review №22

Bought 5 doors and paid for them to deliver. One was damaged and had green stains on it. I made the millwork manager aware of the situation and hadnt heard back from her. After providing the door information for a replacement and following up repeatedly, she informs me that the door is ordered, but I have to bring the damaged door to them and pick up the new door (after I paid for delivery in the first place). Really poor service here. I hope theyll do themselves a favor and do the right thing. Many other places to shop.

Would have liked to shop in their garden center for pavers, but the entry was closed and they make you walk all the way down on the opposite side of the store and back...not doing that with heavy pavers

Review №37

The absolute worst customer service and uninformed employees who put you on parade when you ask where something is until they find it this is probably the worst Menards in the entire Chicago land area try to return something with a person who has no clue how to do it handling returns but theyre all kids and thats all they can get for help so I guess you got to live with it or go to home Depot down the street where I did after my experience

I never thought Id be giving a company a bad review for offering me saving but this has just gotten ridiculous! Before I get into my store specific review I will say in general that Menards 11% rebate or any other rebate they offer has become more of an inconvenience than a savings! Im a 100% do it yourself fixer and move from one project to the next without skipping a beat so at one time I was going to Menards regularly anywhere from 2-4 times a week and spending a few bucks to hundreds if not thousands a week. But having to keep track, fill out, keep envelopes and stamps on hand has seriously become a nuisance. I mean seriously most people pay all their bills online, let alone do everything else online including ordering pizza. If it wasnt for Menards I dont even think I would even be buying stamps anymore. Do they not realize the 90s came and went? I much rather go to their competitors (Home Depot, mainly) which WILL MATCH THEIR PRICES AND REBATES, EVERY TIME and you can just submit for your rebate... get this Menards, and please take notes... OOOONLIIIINE!!! Yeah, you can go to Home Depot when Menards has their 11% rebate and get a matching 11% rebate and easily and conveniently submit for it online!Now regarding this store in specific. Im pretty shocked at how downhill this store has gone in just a few years. I bought my 1st house and owned it for 3 years. During that time I spent thousa of dollars and made countless trips to this store. Here an there came across a lazy employee but overall pretty good experiences. Fast forward earlier this year where I sold my house and bought a new one. Wow what a difference Ive noticed. Across the board employees that just try to avoid eye contact in order to try to avoid helping you. Lazy or properly untrained cashiers who will literally stand there and watch you bag 20+ items, while still having to enter your card and sign to pay, and then before you are finished start to ring up the next customer and have their items mix in with yours! Seriously that has happened to me several times already!!! An inventory system that is either flawed or not compatible with lazy employees who cant find items and cant place an order for you because their system shows the item as available or dont want to take the time to place the order and literally tell you to go to another one of their stores to buy it. Its pretty sad that at one time I enjoyed coming here and giving them my money in exchange to improve my home and now I dread giving them my business.

Prices are good but dont expect much help in the aisles. Wait for the 11% rebate offers or the 15% bag sales, although they dont allow you to put much in the bags.

Review №62

Just bought a new home, and I have been finding myself at all the home improvement places. But because of Matt in plumbing, I just made the decision to make Menards the only home improvement store I shop at from now on. Matt spent over 20 mins with me making sure I understood everything I needed to understand to fix my sprinkler system. That kind of service, never happens at Lowes or Home Depot. If you are reading this far, you know what Im talking about. Thanks Matt!

Purchased an item on display came to pick this up when received confirmation , order wasn’t ready. Was told to come back on a different day, came back today & they lost my order. Want me to drive an hour away to pick up my item after I pay for this already in this store. Should be zero stars but there’s no spot for a zero star.

I was trying to return something and I was told that I can only return stuff 3 times on a 90 calendar days, so I told them that I was sorry and that I would try to buy less from Menards so I can return less.So I’ll do that and I’ll go to Home Depo, Lows or other store instead.

Matt helped me pick up my carpet order in the back at Bay 3 today and he caught an error in the carpet size before I left with it. Someone had cut it to 129 instead of 192. He saved the day by noticing!!! I would have spent hours driving to and from if I needed to return it. Thanks so much Matt!!

Even before the May 1st 2020 Illinois requirement to wear masks, Menards wouldnt let me into their store without a mask, really! Then you should give your customers a free mask instead of trying to sell them one for $1. At least you should credit them the $1 back if they buy something. Luckily there was a Home Depot near by that let me in without a mask.

We sent our driver to pick up lumber, his only job is to drive and we didnt want him to strain himself. I called ahead to see if they could pull the lumber for him. Bob at Menards said that they couldnt, because they might pull the wrong stuff. Thats understandable. Bob said if our driver found him that he would give him a pick ticket and employees would pull the lumber for my driver and load it into his car for him. Our driver found Bob, got the pick ticket, and then nothing further happened. Nobody found him and helped him. He had to do it himself. That is fine if thats how things are, but then let me know. I could have sent someone with him to help him load. This is not the first time this has happened there. They need to be more realistic in what they tell their customers, and/or get more help.

Its easy to do Ship to Store orders but unlike their competition you have to go to the back of the store to an area without proper signage to pickup your item. Major time waster. Home Depot on the other hand had the pickup area at the front which allows easy in and easy out.

BEWARE - I am a disabled senior. During this COVID situation I have been ordering online and picking up curbside when I can. I placed an online order July 8, 2020 for pick-up at the Gurnee Menards store. I received a confirmation email that my order was ready for pick-up. The next day I drove the 7 miles to the store only to be told that all of the items that I ordered were not in stock.
