    I went into the Lowe's Store at 1900 East Valley View Parkway(1098) on 7/13/26 to ge some paint samples and other things and I talked to John S. in the paint department about color matching a certain blue which is very hard to do as it is a military color from 1851 that is still used today in some of their awards, I didn't have a very big sample. Just a pin off of my hat and he said he would give it a try. It came out pretty good, not completely correct but it was the best I have ever seen so I was happy, went home. Painted it on a stick of wood and it just didn't look right, so I painted it on a chrome plated rod to see what it would look like and to my amazement it was perfect.

    I later went back to tell him and told him that if we would have used glossy paint it would have worked on wood also, not his fault as samples don't come in gloss. I have worked in paint before for Home Depot and have matched a lot of colors, but John is a magician behind that counter, and I will buy paint from no other, great job John and I look forward to dealing with you more.

    I am so happy to give this review of Matt at the Lake St. Louis Lowe's store! We ordered two Koehler toilets, the plumber picked them up and brought them in to install. First one was perfect, opens the second box to install the second toilet, missing one of the two bolts for the tank and no toilet seat. So I went up to the store and Spoke with Matt, who stopped his lunch hour to come help me. First of all, I appreciated that as my plumber was waiting for me to return on the clock. Matt took care of the situation and got me the missing parts. I am forever grateful to him! I do have a Lowe’s credit card and I will be back for more business with Lowe’s!

      My wife and I recently embarked on a rather complicated project which included completely removing our deck and building a new one. We decided to stop at Lowe’s and get a feel for the materials available and costs associated to a project like ours. As we entered the store Lowe’s pro sales specialist, Tony Pisano ask if he could be of help. It was certainly our great luck to have had this chance meeting because he has become an unbelievable source of information and guidance. he simplified the composite board menu available to us and helped us make the right choice. He also suggested other materials that would be needed with this type of wood. He helped find the best prices and delivery options available to us. His advice has resulted in our saving quite a bit of money and knowing that he is only a phone call away if we have a concern is a real confidence builder for us.

      We also want to give a shout out to Alina **, 8another pro sales specialist from Lowe’s who gave up her lunch hour to help us with our project and convert our existing account to a Lowe’s pro (business) account, which gave us even more savings. It’s our hope that our compliments will filter from management back to Tony and Alina with thanks for being such dedicated Lowe’s employees and their importance to attracting and keeping customers.

      Overall a really solid experience at Lowe's. The product selection is great — found everything I needed for my home project without having to look anywhere else, which I always appreciate. The staff was helpful and approachable, didn't have to hunt anyone down for assistance which can sometimes be a challenge at big box stores. One team member in particular took the time to walk me through a couple of product options and helped me figure out what actually made sense for my situation. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that the checkout line was a bit slow and one of the items I needed was out of stock, which was a little frustrating. But nothing that would stop me from coming back. Good products, good people — just a couple of small things that could be smoother.

      I recently moved to Grove, Oklahoma and had the opportunity to visit the Lowe's store in town. Let's start with the 'not so great stuff" first. I know Lowe's can be busy at times, so I tried to do my best by going at a time that would be beneficial for me and the staff. I'm an elderly woman and I also brought a friend with me to help purchase items together so we wouldn't be there so long. I was wrong ...

      We went the "door" aisle trying to find someone to help us with the buying of an interior door. We pressed the "need help" button, but none ever came to our aide at all. After a period of time and I do believe it came over the speaker system about eight times, we gave up and moved on. Our next adventure was purchasing metal shelves for a garage. Again, no help or staff could be found in this department. However, we did notice three Lowe's employees on the next aisle discussing other customers' impatience. I thought that to be very ironic. Anyway,..this leads to the two wonderful staff members who did step up to help out two old women!

      Jason and Kyle were out lifesavers!!! Even though neither one worked in the departments we needed help with, each gentlemen were courteous and kind to us and Kyle even brought all our stuff to the front of the store and loaded it in our vehicle! What a blessing these fellows were to us! I'm new to the Grove area, and I was a bit apprehensive to shop for items for my new home. I'm just so happy that there are some great workers at Lowe's that were able to help me!

      Went into Chantilly Lowe’s today to return some unused plumbing accessories. I often over buy to avoid multiple trips. I had been there earlier, but the line was long so I decided to return later. Well today was day 98 and their new policy is a hard 90 days. Before they would give you store credit after 90 days. So I asked for a manager, surely they would process the return being only a week late and it being a new policy. No, I got Brittany, the “floor supervisor”, who had no customer service ability at all. It was only a few bucks and I didn’t need the hassle, so I said fine I will take my business elsewhere. She couldn’t have cared less. So I went to Walmart to exchange my two propane tanks. It turns out that Walmart has a 24h self-serve propane exchange for $2 cheaper. Felt like a win and I will now avoid Lowe’s for future projects. I know Home Depot has the same policy, but customer service is important to me.

Shop has had it for a month so I went into Lowe’s today and talked with Chris about a solution since my mower is only 3 months old and been in the shop for a month so to me it’s a no brainer I bought the warranty so either give me another mower Or return my money.

      I purchased a built-in refrigerator and freezer from Lowe’s last July, expecting a smooth and professional installation and delivery experience. The refrigerator was finally delivered on August 4, but we are still waiting for the freezer. What is most frustrating is that we have spent countless hours calling Lowe’s, speaking with different employees, and even going to the store in person. We have explained the situation repeatedly, yet no one has been able to resolve it. We are now being told that the contractor needs to send someone to the house to take measurements before the freezer can be delivered. This should have been handled long before now. Why was the necessary measurement not completed when we purchased the appliances or when the refrigerator was delivered?

      This has been an incredibly frustrating experience, especially considering that we paid for a complete built-in appliance package and reasonably expected Lowe’s to coordinate the entire process professionally. Mr. Marvin R. Ellison, Chairman, President and CEO of Lowe’s, your company promotes customer service and a commitment to providing customers with the best experience. (Lowe’s Corporate⁠) I sincerely hope someone in leadership will look into how a customer can purchase an expensive appliance package and still be left waiting with no clear solution or timeline. Lowe’s is a major company, and I understand that contractors and deliveries can sometimes experience delays. But the lack of communication, coordination, and accountability is what has been most disappointing. I am not asking for anything unreasonable. I simply want the freezer we purchased to be delivered and the process finally completed.

      Made large order at Lowe's online. After a 15 percent coupon was applied, it was around $2500. Day of delivery, I got a text saying the bulk of the order was cancelled. No reason. Called customer service to try to cancel remaining order and reorder entire order, coupon still being good that day. They refused to allow me to use coupon and said they would give me $100, which is nothing compared to what the coupon would have given me. I have spent thousands of dollars at Lowe's from remodeling many houses. Couldn't believe the poor customer service.

      This is the SECOND brand-new refrigerator we have purchased from Lowe’s in approximately three years. Because of the problems with the first refrigerator, we specifically purchased the protection plan on the second one for peace of mind. The second refrigerator has now required multiple service calls and TWO repair attempts through service providers sent under the protection plan, and it is STILL not properly repaired. The repair work has been unsuccessful and, in our experience, poorly performed.

      Most concerning, the situation has now become a potential safety issue. We were told by the repair technician that the refrigerator is leaking a dangerous gas into our home. At this point, this is no longer simply about an appliance that does not work properly. We purchased a new refrigerator, paid extra for protection, followed Lowe’s required repair process, and allowed multiple attempts to fix it. We are now left with an appliance that still does not work correctly and that a repair technician has told us is leaking dangerous gas inside our home. We have completely lost confidence in this refrigerator and the repair process. Another repair attempt is NOT an acceptable resolution.

      We are requesting that Lowe’s immediately replace this refrigerator with a comparable NEW refrigerator at no additional cost OR issue a full refund, including the protection plan and associated delivery/installation costs. Lowe’s should also arrange for removal of the defective refrigerator at no charge. Two new refrigerators in three years, two failed repairs on this one, and now a reported dangerous gas leak is unacceptable. We are asking Lowe’s to take responsibility and provide an immediate, permanent resolution.

      Lowe’s Harriman has officially lost a loyal customer over a $100 return. We have completely renovated our house and have spent well over $40,000 between Lowe’s and Home Depot, with probably 75% of that being at Lowe’s. We have a Lowe’s credit card, regularly purchase renovation materials, and have been repeat customers for years.

      Tonight, Lowe’s refused to return approximately $100 worth of completely unused items that were still in their original packaging WITH a receipt simply because they were past 90 days. These weren’t special-order items or some obscure product—they were common, regularly stocked items like SharkBite connectors. I understand that it’s “corporate policy.” But apparently corporate policy is more important than keeping a customer who has already spent $30,000+ and is preparing to spend another $25,000+ on materials for an investment property we’re closing on in less than two weeks.

      We are homeowners with full-time jobs and kids. Renovation projects take time. Sometimes you don’t know what materials you have left over until you get further into a project, and 90 days can pass very quickly. We weren’t even asking for cash back. We were perfectly happy to take store credit, because we are constantly buying materials anyway.

      Home Depot has allowed us to receive store credit on returns past 90 days, so despite being significantly farther away, that’s where we’ll be purchasing the materials for our next property. The irony is that Lowe’s could have kept a customer who was about to spend tens of thousands of dollars over a $100 return of unused merchandise. Instead, they chose to enforce a rigid policy with zero flexibility. $100 return = Lowe’s loses $25,000+ in upcoming business. I’m sure corporate will consider that a successful policy.

      We were in the store yesterday and had an employee create a digital cart for us with $3,500 worth of flooring so we could purchase it after we found out the exact measurements we needed. Go ahead and consider that cart abandoned. If you make a MyLowes account you are screwing yourself over. If you just walked in with random bag of merchandise with no account and no receipt you will get store credit at least. Tell me how that makes any sense.

      On 06/07/2026, I placed an order with Lowe’s for a complete shower kit that was part of a total remodel of my bathroom. Throughout the order process, Lowe’s informed me that the item would be delivered on 06/26/2026. However, on that day the item did not arrive, and I did not receive any communication from Lowe’s to inform me of any delays. I spoke to people at the Lowe’s in McCandless, PA, from which the item was to be delivered, as well as people at regional office, but no one was able to tell me when the item would be delivered.

      After getting help from a regional manager, the manager at the Lowe’s McCanless store called me on 06/29/2026 and said the shower would be delivered the following day. On 06/30/2026, my order status still was not showing that the shower would be delivered, so I called the Lowe’s McCandless store again to verify the status. The young lady I spoke with put me on hold, presumably to speak with the store manager, but whoever she spoke to told her to tell me they couldn’t find the item. Mind you, this is a 30” by 60”, more than 6-foot-tall shower that ships mostly assembled.

      After speaking with the regional manager again, the Lowe’s McCandless store manager called and said that when I had spoken to him the previous day, he told me that the shower would be delivered two days later. I reminded him that he used the word “tomorrow,” which does not mean two days later. He promised to get the shower to me that day. Unfortunately, whoever built the pallet that was holding the item did a shoddy job, and it broke during unloading, causing it to fall off of the forklift and damaging it.

      Once again, I called the McCandless store to report the damage. They promised to deliver a new shower on 07/06/2026. When that day arrived, the shower did not arrive. Again, I received no updates or communication. After making some more calls, I was told that the shower had to be specially ordered from the manufacturer and would take as long as three weeks.

      At this point I had wasted several days sitting at home, waiting for a shower instead of being productive at my office. My contractor had reached a point at which they could not proceed any further without having the shower. They had to stop work and move on to another job. I filed a Better Business Bureau complaint against Lowe’s due to their lack of communication, dishonesty of their store manager, and lack of action in getting me an item for which I paid nearly $3,000.

      The shower was ultimately delivered on 07/22/2026. However, now I have to wait for my contractor to finish the job they’re currently doing before resuming my job. This sets me back an additional month, during which time I have a completely unusable bathroom. Lowe’s purports itself to be a leading hardware store, and I asked that they refund me half the money for the shower to compensate me for the difficulties they caused. They insisted that they could not compensate me for lost time, and that the best they could do was a $100 gift card. What happened to the days when businesses held themselves and their employees accountable for their actions? I think this story is important for people to know if they are considering making a purchase from Lowe’s particularly if it is something being shipped to them.

      I’m only giving one star because I can’t give -4 stars. I bought a dishwasher from my local Lowe’s and went into the store so that I could see what I was buying. They couldn’t deliver the one that was in my price range for a week so I opted for a more expensive model that would be delivered in two days. Two days later, a man was banging on my door at 7:50 AM. I didn’t know who it was and was running around my house trying to cover up my nightgown.

      I answered the door and told them I had to put on clothes. I saw on my Ring camera that the guy looked down at his watch and told his coworker that they were going to be late now. I’ve got the door opened and the guy came in huffy and puffy, and started yanking things out from under my sink. I told him I was sorry that I would’ve done that but didn’t think to do it, and he told me that a woman had called me and told me to do it. I told him that I hadn’t received a phone call and he told me that I was accusing him of being a liar.

      In fact, he started screaming at me in my own home that I was calling him a liar, and then they took off out of my house with my dishwasher. No one would do anything or even tell me who the man was that was screaming at me. They completely protected him and wouldn’t even tell me their names. I would never ever ever buy another dishwasher from Lowe’s.

      The people they contract out to deliver and install your appliances do not work for Lowe’s. They work for an independent company that will do nothing for you when you call to complain, and they won’t even tell you who was in your house. I have no idea if this man has a record or if he has a problem abusing women, which he probably does from the way he acted towards me. I would never ever ever have a woman alone in a house with a man who has been contracted out by a separate company than Lowe’s because they will not protect you. They will not tell you who is in your house and they will do nothing about it. I will never buy another product from Lowe’s as long as I live.

      We purchased a GE dryer from Lowe's in February 2026. Delivery and installation were prompt and went smoothly, but the dryer malfunctioned just a few months later, at the beginning of June. It took three weeks for a warranty technician to come out. When the technician arrived, they discovered the wrong replacement parts had been sent and could not complete the repair. A second appointment was scheduled two weeks later, but once again the incorrect parts were provided. It is now the end of July, a third appointment has not even been scheduled, and our tenant has been without a working dryer for nearly two months.

      As a property management company, we have had to provide our tenant with a rent credit because of the extended delay and may have to do so again if this is not resolved soon. The biggest disappointment has not been the delivery process, but the product reliability and the warranty repair experience. Unfortunately, this has been an extremely frustrating experience with no resolution in sight.

If you all remember the person who is running Lowe's is the same person who helped destroy JC Penney. I can go on but I won’t for now. Hey Lowe's time to see what being a leader is and not a follower. Time for a change.

      Got pissed off and determined, bottom line have spent over two and a half hours with the AI crap phone. All I wanted was to talk to associate in lumber. The few times I got through it rang like eight or nine times and then hung up, I remember now why years ago I started going to Home Depot. There you get service and treat it like a person. Without a doubt the customer service at Lowe's is the worst I have ever had to deal with. No wonder they're having financial problems. I won't be going back

      My disaster of installation of a aluminum driveway fence. I paid $3300 on 09/30/26, They were to start the project on October 31, 2026. After many trips to my house in November which by this time the ground was frozen, they tried to install the gate. The fence is about 144 ft across. The first half of the fence fell to the ground, completely off the hinges within a week. The other side of the gate was not able to be properly installed because too much of the gate was on the wall of my house on the other side. Render attached flimsy hinges to my vinyl gate on the side so the fence would close. That side fell to the ground on May. The contractor used and continue to be used is Render Home Solutions. This company is totally incompetent. I reported Lowes to the BBB and was offered half of my money back. Half is not good because the gate must be taken down on the side that is remaining and redone. I rejected the offer.

      The contractor kept saying they were coming and would not show up. They only started responding after I complained to the Lowe's store. After continually complaining I finally went to the Southfield store of purchase. There also I was given the runaround by those managers. That is when I went to the BBB. Lowe's are not accredited by the BBB. At this point I have no refund and half of a terrible workmanship gate in my driveway which are open as of today.

      Absolutely horrid customer service. I spent $4000 on appliances for a kitchen remodel from Lowe's. I called the day I made the online purchase because I realized I wanted to purchase the slide-in range/oven instead of the freestanding. I literally had to call back and talk to 4 different people because the customer service people were so incredibly rude, and they would intentionally put you on hold for 30 mins if you were not satisfied. I also had 2 different people hang up on me, and I was not being rude. I finally just gave up and decided to stick with the freestanding range.

      Their loss because I would have spent more on the slide-in option. And then the night before delivery, they sent out an email with a disclaimer that they would only honor damages/returns/exchanges within 48 hr window of being delivered. After that, you have to go through manufacturer. Who is able to see if appliances are working when delivered during a remodel?! My cabinets are still being installed and will not be able to plug things in and ensure they are indeed functional for 1-2 weeks. Nowhere was this made clear to me until the night before delivery. And to top it off, I paid $700 for a farmhouse sink. Upon installation, the contractor noticed it was defective and flawed. After spending an hour on the phone with customer service and a manager… they will not exchange!!! I will not ever buy anything from Lowe’s again, and I will make sure I advise everyone I know not to either.

      If I could give a negative rating, I absolutely would. I started my water heater replacement through Lowe's Water Heater Project website. After submitting my information, I was contacted by their installer, who came to my home the next day and installed a new water heater. About a week later, I discovered a large dent in the brand-new water heater. This wasn't a minor cosmetic blemish—it was significant enough to make me concerned about possible internal damage and the long-term reliability of the unit. Since I had paid full price for a brand-new water heater and professional installation, I expected Lowe's to stand behind its product and service. Instead, I experienced one of the worst customer service experiences I have ever had.

      Every inquiry eventually led me to a department called "Customer Solutions." I still don't know whether this is a Lowe's department or a third-party contractor, but whoever they are, they completely failed to resolve the issue. The representative assigned to my case showed little interest in actually solving the problem. Every conversation followed the same script. He would ask whether I had contacted another party (the installer, the manufacturer, etc.), promise to call me back later that day or the next day with an update, and then never call. After waiting a week with no response, I would have to start the entire process over again. Even reaching him required multiple phone calls. Each time, I heard the same promises and received no meaningful progress.

      After months of this endless cycle, I escalated the issue to his supervisor. Unfortunately, that was no better. I was told that they had spoken with a Lowe's regional manager, who had refused to authorize a replacement of the damaged water heater. When I requested the regional manager's contact information so I could discuss the matter directly, they flatly refused to provide it. Instead, they claimed they fully represented Lowe's and that their decision was final, leaving me with no opportunity to appeal or even speak with the person supposedly making the decision.

      After more than three months of repeated phone calls, broken promises, and complete lack of accountability, I finally gave up. The end result? Lowe's charged me full price for a brand-new water heater and installation, delivered a damaged product, and then refused to replace it or take responsibility. The most frustrating part wasn't just the damaged water heater—it was the complete absence of customer service, accountability, and follow-through.

      This experience has completely destroyed my confidence in Lowe's installation services. If this is how Lowe's handles warranty issues and customer complaints, I cannot recommend purchasing a water heater or any installation service through them. My advice to anyone considering Lowe's installation services: If something goes wrong after installation, don't expect Lowe's to stand behind the product or make things right. Based on my experience, once they've collected your payment, you're largely on your own.

      I am highly unsatisfied and disgruntled with Lowe's! I've been waiting for my dishwasher for almost a week. I paid for installation and hall way. The delivery guys dropped it off and said they don't do installation or removal! I tried to resolve it with online support and they said my order number doesn't exist. My order is not even on my online account purchases. The dishwasher is literally in my garage. I called them, went through all the automated number selections, got put on hold, transferred, and then hung up on. Finally got through to a person and they can't hall away or install it until Monday (today is Saturday). AND I have to "unhook" the old one myself! I don't know how in the world to do that! That's why I PAID for removal. Lowe's lost a customer today.

      My brother and I purchased a Brand GE Washer, for my 80 yrs old mother, and to this very day she has not been able to wash clothes because it doesn't work, totally defective, called Lowe's to have it replaced, or refund us our money to either purchased a new Washer/Brand or go somewhere else. I personally have been getting the run around from both Lowe's and the GE Manufacturer, they referred me to. Nobody wants to take responsibility for their DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. It's sad when store are becoming rip-off and not stand by their products. Your customers service has been thus far a zero, from the Customer service assistance Jody, to your store manager Jude, and even speaking with another customer service specialist Rica, has been nothing but a nightmare and bunch of non-transparency.

      To me reaching out to the Bodewell GE Manufacturer Repair and Support team where I have spoke with Teresa, Tameka, Victoria, Jim (whom escalated with a case# ** to their Consumer Relations) where I spoke with Case manager Candi, told me they could get someone out to look at the washer but I would have to pay $120.00 flat fee for Mileage just to look at the machine to determine if it can be repaired or if it needs to be replaced. Why is that my responsibility for your Defective product that I have to pay for a service that I didn't ask for. I need to hear from someone in Lowe's Consumer Relations department ASAP. This issue has been going on since we purchased the washer and gotten no resolve and is leaving a bitter taste in my mouth. I have uploaded pictures and a copy of the receipt.

      Lowe's corporate policy is stealing from customers, performing unscrupulous business practices that should be considered theft by diversion or at the least money laundering. On Saturday, 07/16/2026 I purchased a Frigidaire 20 cubic foot freezer from Douglasville, GA Lowe's store.
      (7001 Douglas Blvd, Douglasville, GA 30135 - phone 770 920 9022). I paid for haul away of an old freezer ($79.00). I paid a delivery fee ($39.00). I paid full price for the new freezer ($899.00). I paid for a 5 year warranty ($159.97). The new freezer was ordered and delivered under Lowe's tracking #**. The new freezer was delivered on Monday July 20, 2026. The new freezer was NOT delivered from the Douglasville store inventory.

      The new freezer was delivered from Camp Creek Store inventory. (3625 N Commerce Dr, East Point, GA 30344 with phone 404-838-2000).

      This is where the trouble begins. The new freezer had a bad seal from the Frigidaire factory. Icicles formed within 12 hours, and frost overtook the entirety of the inside back wall. It is supposed to be a frost free freezer. I called Lowe's customer service at (800) 445-6937 to return it according to their 48 hour return policy window. I was told only Camp Creek store can order the pickup of the defective new unit, because it came from their store inventory. Camp Creek store obliged and said they could pick it up on 07/23/2026. Camp Creek store picked it up on 07/23/2026 at 12pm - but did not mark that they picked it up until 3pm 07/24/2026. This return order delivery # is **.

      This is where it gets worse. I was told that I cannot have my money back from the STORE I GAVE MY MONEY TO (Douglasville) - because the freezer actually came from the Camp Creek store inventory. Camp Creek does not answer their phones, puts you on hold, and hang up on you or wait just put you on hold until you give up and hang up. I held also held on the phone with them from a corporate customer support representative for over a cumulative 1.5 hours. Totaling nearly 3 hour of holding with Camp Creek over 24 hours. This is where the theft comes in, now. I was emailed a receipt telling I will expect a gift card in the mail - from Camp Creek Lowe's - for ONLY THE VALUE OF THE FREEZER. This gift card transaction # is **.

      At this point I am still owed 159.97 + 39.00 delivery. (In fairness I am not asking for recycled appliance fee returned, as that did occur.) I was told by corporate customer service support that to get my money back for the 5 year warranty, that I have to wait until the Douglasville calls me back to tell me how they're going to send me the additional money. When I asked for a transaction number from corporate for the 5 year warranty money back, I was told they can't give me that, and only the Douglasville store can tell me that. Corporate customer service is useless too now. Fine. I'll get a gift card eventually (I better!) in the mail. Fine. I'll get (hopefully) the 5 year warranty replacement too. However, I was told by corporate that the $39 delivery fee is completely non-refundable, and that's just the way it is.

      If this is all true, it's theft. Of consumer's money and time. It's not my fault as the consumer that Frigidaire produced a faulty product. I am robbed of this money, because Lowe's is corrupt and not decent enough to return a delivery fee, FOR A PRODUCT THAT WAS DEFECTIVE FROM THE FIRST DAY. That's their money to lose, NOT MINE. Lowe's is actively punishing consumers and taking money from them, under this "non refundable" service, that as far as I'm concerned is fraudulent... when they're out here delivering defective products to consumers. Lowe's can do better, and they should do better.

      Worst customer service of any company by far. I bought a refrigerator and an ice maker separately from Lowe's. They said they didn't have the ice maker when I bought the fridge but I went online and saw they did have a model that was compatible. Unfortunately the ice maker didn't work. I called many times and every time they just passed the buck along to a serviceman who came and did nothing. They said the model numbers were correct but there's nothing they could do. I repeated this processes 5 times and I'm done re-explaining the same issue over and over. And now I'm stuck with a fridge that apparently doesn't have a compatible ice maker model.

      Mocking a customer is disrespectful, especially a disabled veteran. That is how we were treated when asking where to find a specific product. While two employees first ignored our attempts to get their attention, then finally just used hand signals to indicate what we are looking for. A confusing retort of it being down on the right, then left was not helpful at all. Having low vision makes it very challenging to read the labels in a store and especially not knowing what direction to look. I remarked about the customer service and the employee let out a very loud fake yawn moan. I suppose his low social intelligence took the better of him. If I still worked at Lowe's headquarters in HR this employee would definitely be getting some days back in training.

      I would never recommend Lowe’s for installation. We ordered a front door. It was measured. After some time I had to keep calling them and would get very infrequent answers or call backs. Every time I did talk to someone there was another thing that had to be done. Each time the price went higher. Nothing was ordered. After several conversations which I initiated, there was another problem and the price was even higher. I finally told them to forget it. They clearly did not want to do business with us. They were rude and unprofessional. Now after almost 3 months we have to start over to find another installer.

      BEWARE of 20% off if you sign up for a Lowe's credit card. I'm a contractor with a credit score of 822. I was buying a Kohler toilet that is exclusively made for Lowe's. Went to pay at self checkout seen apply for Lowes's credit card get 20 % off. I figured why not? It was a $300 toilet. Cashier said, "Let me do this for you. It will be much faster." Ok went thru all the answers and questions, got a email confirmation with a code. He said, "Check it and give it to me." Ok I did. He said, "You're all set. Check your email to finish the purchase." It was from Fortiva Credit card. Thought it seemed funny but figured it was Lowe's special card. Cashier made the purchase had me put it into my google wallet so he could scan it to make the purchase. Well no 20% off. Asked where it was. He said go talk to customer service. I did. They were so confused they didn't know what to do.

      I said cancel the whole purchase and refund it back to the credit card. After all the BS. I said what with the credit card they said, "You weren't approved for a Lowe's card so it defaulted to a Fortiva card," which is a HIGH RISK card for people with bad credit and now I'm having more difficulty trying to cancel that card. The most worst experience I have ever had at any store ever in my life and will never shop LOWE'S again. Remember I have a 822 credit score and I owe a business and 3 homes and have paid everything in full forever with no interest payments. DISGUSTING the Manager and customer service, cashier was terrible, had no idea what was happening. I was never warned. They just signed me up for a card I never asked for. If there was a 0 star that's what they would get.

      In February 2026, we paid ~$2,500 in full at Lowe’s for two replacement French doors with installation. What should have been a standard job turned into a 5-month nightmare involving many home visits, extreme disorganization, and outright incompetence across four disconnected layers of contracting (Lowe’s Store, Lowe’s Installation Support, Universal Home Services, and local subcontractors). We were treated badly, accused of not understanding the process or specifications (despite repeatedly being proven correct) and sometimes outright lied to on multiple occasions.

      Measuring & Ordering Blunders: The initial measurer got both the dimensions and door swing wrong. Despite my having multiple conversations to try and confirm the correct specifications, when the door finally arrived in April, the installer realized it was the wrong size, wrong swing, and had the wrong hardware color.

      Store Incompetence: I spent hours at the local store watching employees argue over door swings, struggle with their own system, and re-order the wrong door again (a steel door instead of fiberglass). Communication Black Hole: Between manufacturing delays, lost orders for trim supplies, and zero proactive updates, we were left playing phone tag with customer support teams that don't share basic order notes with one another. After 5 months of delays, the job was completed in July—and even then, screw holes were left uncaulked (apparently this is not included).

      The Final Insult: When I requested compensation for 5 months of hardship, poor treatment, and wasted time, Lowe’s initially offered a laughable 2% ($50) refund. After escalating, they offered $289, but it turned out that this was only if I signed a blanket NDA and Non-Disparagement clause to silence me permanently. When I refused the gag order without getting compensated for the Lowe's part of the services (we did not ask for the cost of the door), they dropped their compensation offer down to $249. Saying this was all they 'could' do for several convoluted reasons, but later came up with an offer of $500 with an NDA. Lowe’s Installation Support is completely fragmented, unreliable, and more concerned with paying customers for silence than taking accountability for massive project failures.
