I don't have a favorite. I like Home Depot, Lowe's, and OSH about the same. I like Ace Hardware stores, too, but they usually have a lot of housewares stuff that you can't get at the others. Menards I've never been to.

Never been to any. Don't own a home and these places are typically not in an area where I usually find myself -- they're in neighborhoods I rarely visit. But I'd go to one out of curiosity if I ever came upon one in my wanderings.

I'm torn.

Lowe's has more employees and is better organized, but I prefer the stuff/prices at Home Depot. My ex works in the Home Depot as a vendor, and is at my local store a few times a week. I no longer shop there because of that.... even though I prefer the store and it's a little closer to me than Lowe's.

We don't have an Ace or Menards.

Home Depo is only one that's familiar to me form the list, so I'll go with it.

Around here we have 2 chains, Home Depot and Rona. I prefer Rona, but Home Depot is fine too.
We don't have Lowes here, and I've never heard of the other 2.

Home Depot because it's the only one we got... we've got 2, 1 in each direction.
I've been to Lowes once in another state and it seemed to be exactly identical to Home Depot.

None. I dislike going into these stores. Too big unless you are making a large purchase or buying a lot of different things. 99% of the time I can find small stuff I need at Ace Hardware in town, 5 minutes away. The big box stores are 30 minutes away.

Actually, I wouldn't consider Ace Hardware a home improvement store. It's a hardware store mainly. And there aren't any Menards around here. I think that's a midwest thing.

If I have to go to a large store it's Home Depot. I think I've been in Lowes once.

Home Depot (though others usually end up improving my home, I just approve)

I can't remember the last time I went to a DIY shop, but I suppose B&Q is okay.

People actually like these stores?!
My parents always trick me into goint to them. "Oh we're going to go eat." "Now we're going to go to Home Depot to buy some ridiculous thing just so we can go to Home Depot because you hate it so much."
