Universal Electric Supply Co

Shockingly unhelpful. Brought in a circular bulb that needed replacing and the man said he'd check to see if they had it. He says they're sold out and the size I need is nonstandard. He hands the bulb back and starts to walk away. Um, will you get more? He doesn't know. Is there a brand I should look for? He doesn't know. Then he starts throwing out these electrical terms that I need to be sure to look out for and I've got no idea what he's talking about. When I ask he doesn't want to explain and ultimately says I should just replace the whole light fixture and gestures toward the back of the store with stacks of boxes. Um where? I spent about a min looking. Everything was generic and impossible to know what you're really looking at so I left.

My electrician recommended I go there, and there is parking, so I'll give them three stars. The showroom didn't show the products well (tired, worn, disorganized), and the staff weren't any better. I left after being unable to get help, about 25 minutes into my visit.

After time spent in big box hardware stores, the service and inventory of a local shop can't be beat. The service is helpful and hands-on, and they have a great selection.

They had most things you'll need electrically there. That's when it's not at White cap construction supply or Home Depot.
Thanks!

You know. They got everything. And are out of stock on it from time to time. But what's great is, bring you old bulb, show it to any employee, and they will know exactly what it is and where to find it in the shop. Also they can recycle your old CFLs here for free (there's a box in the warehouse). Yay!

One stop shop and very helpful.. excellent help all the times, my favorite supply house by far, although some off brand stuff at times

Wow great selection of electric parts . I have this commercial light bulb . I have a hard time finding this bulb at Home depo and Lowe's . This fluorescent light bulb had this base that usually you need to pay attention to it. Brought my broken light bulb and he clerk new exactly what I needed. Supper service

One of the best places to go for any electrical needs ,the staff is very friendly and super helpful I go here almost every other day for work supplies I would highly recommend anyone looking for any electrical material from lights to wires to check this place out first

if you need basic a$$ stuff fine

they are basically lazy
will not research anything for you
and only want to sell what is in stock

ALSO NO REFUNDS only store credit so heads up on that

Went in with fixture - had part number - dude said part number did not mean anything (to his dumb a$$ sure) and the part no longer exist

went to CITY LIGHTS - he researched part number - they had it IN STOCK purchased moved on

3 wasted trips to Universal - they will sell you whatever they have - guessing maybe it will or won't work - then you get a dumb store credit

when they know they probably sold you they wrong thing

shameful

Fast. Affordable. Good stock. Customer oriented business. Parking. Convenient location. Many pros around this place all day long.
