Great hardware store with a wide range and quality products. Convenient location and large parking lot.
Friendly staff (but they are not so many in the store 👻), large selection of DYI tools and materials.
Edit : This store had gone downhill considerably and I've updated my review as a result. The aquarium centre no longer had the clean aspect it used to, the staff are helpful there, but it is poorly stocked. Furthermore, the main shop had become a much less enjoyable place to be. The staff are often more grumpy than they used to be and especially the staff on the main desk by the cash desks. They don't help like they used to abd everything has has become cluttered with old style communist attitude and administration. OLD REVIEW: 'Very good DIY store with aquarist and horticulturalist sections. Clean, well stocked and better quality goods. Staff polite and helpful, NO LONGER VALID.
The fishes are in terrible conditions as if they don't care at all. I went to buy plants for my aquarium and saw 1 dead betta fish and the other one floating sideways ( sign of a very sick fish ) and the worst thing is they need at least 10 liters aquarium but they were in less than 500ml box
