  A normal variety of good tools and supplies for a home depot. The bathrooms are fairly clean and they have wifi available for people shopping although it does get a tad spotty in a few areas. I have only had to use the tool loan department 1 time, but they were nice and had the tamper that I needed to rent in stock. They do have string and paper available after checkout to safely secure lumber etc. to you vehicle which I have found many home depot's are sometimes out of, which can be a real problem when you are counting on that to get home without causing problems. I have been very happy with Ryobi 18v tools for home use, and this home Depot has many of their tools in stock. And their tools department had this brand as well as other brands of tools on display so you can handle and feel how it sits in your hands which is a big plus for me when shopping. Not the best place to find specialty hardwoods such as cherry, mahogany, walnut but easy to find oak, pressure treated and pine boards. The staff can be hit or miss as far as helpfulness, and hit or miss in availability. I have had some staff who will show me exactly where something is hiding, or will go the extra mile and explain exactly how to fix a problem I am trying to solve (plumbing department). But I have also had staff who shrug their shoulders when I was searching for a specialty electrical switch. When I asked if they carried anything that would work as I described he just said "why are you doing that it would be easier to just install a regular switch" I tried to explain why and he just shrugged his shoulders and walked away. (I found the switch easily enough and ordered from Amazon) In one case I had a staff member roll his eyes and huff when I was trying to find a board of maple wood and their was only oak in their designated spot, he walked away and I had assumed he was helping me to find it but no he was chatting with Co-workers so after 30min of searching and waiting for him to return I gave up.
