The Ace Hardware stores that I go to in Tucson are great. There's a small one very close to me, and a huge one a little farther off. It has everything, including a hobby shop where I can buy my paints & glues & stuff. Besides that, the staff is really good and they know what they're talking about. So unless I'm buying lumber, there's no reason to mess with HD. I have not tried the Lowe's here.
