    This is what I emailed to Customer:

    To Whom It May Concern,

    I ordered a Kenmore Black with Copper Accents 4-Burner Liquid Propane Gas Grill from your company (Lowes). The order specified that this item was to be assembled before delivery. I was contacted this morning by a "Manager" named Tammy to tell me that they did not assemble the product which was to be delivered today between 11:30 to 3:00 or 3:30. She stated that I was supposed to click a button for assembly and I stated to her that there was no button and so this is why I typed it in on the delivery screen. So obviously it was noted: Maybe they consider adding a pop-up to ask if you want the grill assembled. This would help the customer.

    I have worked in retail before, and she should have done everything to accommodate me. All she offered was a 10% Discount with a delivery date of tomorrow which is unacceptable since Father's Day is today and I work tomorrow. I am not understanding why they are not reviewing their orders before the day of delivery in which they had two weeks to do so.

    I bought a washing machine from Lowes not too long ago in which they scratched it. I never received the 10% discount even after they called me to apply the credit. This was offered by the delivery man and not initiated by myself.

    Back to grill: Tammy, who refused to give me her full name or her employee badge number and the home office information, was rude and hung up on me and so I called back to Customer Service and spoke with Wanda, who was pleasant and understood why I was so upset. Wanda was unable to cancel my purchase from her side. She stated that she will be forwarding that to the Lowes Warehouse and so I expect to receive a credit with no deductions from my order.

    As a former manager, I would have made sure the grill was assembled and delivered to my customer today, even if it was late. Secondly, I would have avoided this situation by having a couple grills already assembled in the warehouse knowing that this was Father's Day to avoid any possible unforeseen delivery errors. Lastly, I would have called all customers prior to delivery to be sure they received the specifications that they requested, since they obviously know that this has been a problem in the past. She had two weeks to call. Calling the day of is unacceptable. I had the meat thawed out and company coming this afternoon. Now my husband is running around looking for a grill on Father's Day.

    I have no plans on ordering anything else from Lowes, but I am letting you be aware of this situation so that hopefully better procedures can be put in place to avoid this in the future. I will also be paying off my Lowes Card account this month as I plan to make no further purchases.

    I hope that Tammy is reprimanded accordingly.

    Not only did Lowe’s send out an assessment, agent, charge us $40 for the assessment and then keep us hanging for over 2 1/2 weeks without being able to get through to them via any email or phone we tried, but in the end they dumped us, and said that they couldn’t actually do the installation because we haven’t purchased the item from them, which had never come up in any of the requests or communications we did have. They wasted our time, and our money. Do not use the service.

    I purchased a ceiling fan from Lowe's and paid $140 for the installation. Within four days two installers showed up, barely able to speak English, and improperly installed the fan then lied to my wife saying they couldn't install it any other way. When she pointed out the flaw with the install he told her "You can just paint over it". I tried to talk to the store where I purchased the fan and the service and they just gave me a number to call. Got a recording and no return call. Never again will I use Lowe's to install anything.

    I wished to purchase a water heater from Lowe's in Dublin CA. My intended water heater was showing as 'in stock' at Dublin Lowes. The sales person offered to open a credit card account with Lowes so that I can get a 5% discount, BEFORE I purchase the water heater. I opened the credit card account right there. It turned out that the store did not have the heater that I wanted, even though it showed up as in-stock. So, the sales person contacted the installer. The installer had the intended water heater. So, the Lowes sales person said that he cannot offer the 5% discount since Lowes is not selling it to me. However, he assured that the installer will offer the same 5% discount.

    Eventually, the water heater was installed, and the installer was willing to offer the 5% discount, provided that I pay him using Lowes credit card. When I actually received the Lowes credit card, and I tried to pay the installer using the card, the card was declined. Reason? It was a Lowes Business Card. And the installer could only process the Lowes Personal Credit card. I went to the Dublin Lowes again, however, the staff there was not in a mood to help me. Since I did not want to keep the installer waiting too long, I just paid him using my regular credit card (NOT Lowes).

    So, at the end of the day, I did NOT get the 5% discount that I was promised, with the Lowes card. Now, whose problem is it? I believe, it's the Lowes Sales person. He should have checked the availability of the water heater beforehand. He should have known, which card is acceptable to the installer, since he deals with the installer all the time. He should have offered some help, when I told him the problem with the card. He did nothing of it. I will think 100 times before dealing with Lowes again.

    I ordered a refrigerator and took the day off work for it to be delivered. My delivery time was confirmed via email the night before with a minor change in the window. The morning of, they called at 8:30am and said they needed to reschedule for 2 weeks from now. Canceled my order and order a refrigerator from Costco. They ALWAYS stick to their delivery window. Lesson learned. I will not shop at Lowe's again.

    DO NOT ORDER WINDOWS FROM LOWE'S! I ordered windows in August 2022. SEVEN MONTHS LATER, in March 2023, the windows came in and the installers found that the order had four windows sized incorrectly and two others were missing. The new windows have been sitting in their store since, at least, May 22, 2023. Lowe's Installation Services have repeatedly told me that they were in contact with a new installer, the installer would be reaching out to me within 48hrs and that Lowe's would be calling me back to confirm. NONE OF THAT HAS HAPPENED. I now see that my window installation permit with the City of Cape Coral has EXPIRED. NOBODY CAN TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON. Where do I go to pick up my windows??? I'll have them installed myself and Lowe's can adjust my bill. Again, DO NOT USE LOWE'S FOR WINDOWS!!

    I had my windows measured in order to get a quote for replacement. The contractor did not provide the contract without further prompting and refuses to use their company issued email. I live in a condo so it’s critical to send them HOA documents for providing insurance policies and window specifications before signing the contract. The contractor refuses to use the email address so I can’t actively ensure they receive the required documents. If they can’t communicate properly and can’t digitally provide documents I can’t see how they are capable of installing windows in my home. I am going with a different contractor with better customer service for this reason.

    We had the installation that cost us more than 10k! We didn’t get what we paid for, in hindsight we were sold a lie! The sales rep provided comparisons to Home Depot and everything sounded great until the installation took place. Was a huge let down. One window was damaged and took almost 6 months to get that one replaced. The installer never informed Lowe's so we had to keep following up weekly till we finally got the window installed 6 months later!!!

    Lowe’s doesn’t take responsibility and places the blame with Milgard. I can’t accept that; especially, since we paid Lowe’s. Let me add the installer informed me they framed the window in a wood casing and was informed we are to paint each casing!!! When I had windows installed by Home Depot they didn’t pass on that responsibility to us, the homeowner!!! They took care of the window installation and all related!!! Well we found there is a tear in one of the window screen, and another lack of responsive roller coaster to get Milgard and Lowe’s to take accountability!!! Never will I purchase via Lowe’s, they are not responsive once payments are rendered!

    The worst experience I have had with a company and customer service. Not one thing that was told to me was accurate. I purchased a washing machine for the Memorial Day Sale. The first delivery came and the washer died within two min of the water filling. The machine died with the door locked, ruining my clothes since they had to sit in the water. They said someone would call me within 24 hours to set up a delivery time. No one called. I called and found out it was already scheduled, without telling me. I had to take that day off of work since no timeframe was given. Sent someone out to replace it. That individual not only came an hour before my scheduled time, but when he came, said they couldn't exchange it because the lid was shut and left.

    Called again and waited several more days for a new delivery. That washer came. I asked for them to stay to ensure that it worked. They stayed for one min, before the water started filling. Once it started filling, it died again. I called again and waited several days for the next delivery, where I was told they would have the individuals delivering the machine wait to make sure it works with the water. The drivers refused and left before confirming. It died again. Now they are saying that I have to wait until the next week to get it serviced. I told them that if the individuals weren't going to wait, to just send to have it serviced because I can't take this chance again. Now I'm stuck waiting...Again...And I still have no washer. I've lost 3 days of work waiting for the delivery, I was never called when I was told I would be called with each delivery. Not one thing that was told to me ended up occurring. Horrible experience.

    I ordered windows for my new house at the Lowe's in Mansfield Texas in which I was promised it would take about four weeks since it was a local distributor they would be coming from. I was on going to order my windows from Home depot that said it would be about six weeks instead and regret not going with Home Depot with a passion. It took 12 weeks to receive my windows at my property in which they came in completely wrong. They were for remodel instead of new construction windows which it was very detailed that I was building a new construction home. They tried to put some of the responsibility on me which is mind blowing since this is not my daily profession. The store did not take accountability for the mistake on their behalf and while I'm losing money on a daily basis.

    Made the mistake of going with Lowe's to have Vinyl flooring installed. They hired Midwest Flooring out of OKC. It was the worst experience ever. Not only it Midwest Flooring a terrible company, Lowe's has not backed up their contract hire mistakes. Midwest lead worker arrives not knowing he was supposed to pick up the material. He asked where the closest Home Depot or Lowes was to get plastic to cover everything as they had ceramic tile to remove. He left came back with plastic started to put it up then stopped so nothing was covered and the layer of dust was so thick and throughout the whole house (not just the main room where floor was being installed).

    The quarter round were not even close together there were gaps at every corner. They scratched and left gauges in the baseboards, door frames and cabinet bases that we had just had restained. They broke a shelf in the kitchen. There were gaps along the edges where the flooring was cut too short. Went into Lowe's and the asst. manager Michael acted like they would take care of it but it seems like everything is diverted to Midwest for resolutions.

    Midwest had corrected some of the issues but the damaged shelf is still pending and they refuse to reimburse us for the repairs to the door frames and baseboards. Stating scratches are part of the remodel process and can happen. Scratches or one thing but there were deep gouges which isn’t normal. That shoddy workmanship. Lowe's does not back up their contractor's hires and Midwest Flooring does terrible work. Buy retail items from Lowe's but Do Not have them do any installation work.!!

    I contracted with Lowe's on March 8 of this year. They delivered material for a roof, the front porch deck and a back porch deck on March 15. The crew came to work on my roof. They put on the wrong shingles on the whole front porch roof and they had to take all of those off and start over. That was the very first day. When the roof was finished, the drip edge was a mess, they had white caulking on my black roof and several of the shingles are not nailed down like they should be. Next they started my deck. I put Trex on my front porch porch. It’s going to cost me $10,000 when they had the porch finished.

    The Trex boards were not even. Some of them were above the fascia board. Some of them were down. They were up and down and up and down and when I asked him about this, they said it was because my foundation was not level. And they couldn’t do anything about it. I asked them if they did a pre-installation inspection which says in the contract that they will do it before they actually perform the job. Obviously they did not or they would’ve seen that my foundation was not level and they could’ve straighten it out at my cost, of course but they did not do that l.

    Next they put white vinyl railing on my porch and they mismeasured the vinyl wraps on three different poles so they had four extra holes in them that they weren’t going to use and they told me that they would just caulk it. I wasn’t OK with that. I’m paying for this. It’s brand new. I don’t want it caulked because they made mistakes, so I asked them to fix that, the hand railing was not plum. I asked that they correct it. The back porch. The contractor told me that he was going to build steps for me and a 4 x 4 platform with the Trex same as the front porch so when they finished building the steps and putting the hand railing up the handrails, do not come up to the support beams of the porch roof. It’s not correct. It’s not structurally, correct.

    Again, if they had done a pre-installation inspection, they would’ve seen that the porch they were adding would not be covered by the existing roof. The existing roof needed to be increased. I didn’t even get a chance to tell them that because they never came back after I asked him to fix the front porch $10,000 front porch that was all uneven and fix the holes in the vinyl wraps. They just never came back. It is June 6 and they haven’t been here since April 18. I have called the installation department. I tried to talk with the managers at Lowe’s. The contractor JJ ** will not talk to me because he’s upset that I didn’t let them finish their job before I asked them to correct the mistakes they made, I didn’t want them to do my siding, if they could not do the job that already did correctly.

    The installer is mad at me and the contractor mad at me but still I’m $30,300 in debt because I had to pay upfront for the labor and the supplies. Again I have called the installation department. They said they escalated contacting the installer the first time they did it. The second time they escalated to the third level to the fourth level to the fifth level. Nothing has been done, nothing. Lowe's is pretty much just taking my money and let all of my material lay out in my yard for almost 3 months. Now the siding was delivered April 25 and it’s just been laying out in the yard too and I am at their mercy whatever they decide to do. I have no idea if and when they are coming back. P&M Management in Beckley is who the installers are.

    Another thing about them is you never know if they’re coming. They won’t let you know if they’re gonna be here. A couple of times they actually let me know, but that was probably maybe two or three days. I never knew if they were gonna show up or not, and they always left a mess. Every evening I will clean up their mess from sawing the fascia board, etc. My advice is never ever sign Anything with Lowe's because you don’t have a leg to stand on. You are at their mercy if and when they decide to do the job. You might get it done but I haven’t got anything done. I feel like those guys thought I wouldn’t know if things were right. On a 64 year-old widow I think they thought they could take advantage of me. I have been emotionally and mentally upset over this whole situation.

    I wish I had checked ConsumerAffairs and other review sites before we tried to buy a new clothes washer and dryer set from Lowe's. This company is *totally* FUBAR!! Unfortunately, we ordered a new clothes washer and dryer set from the Lowe's in Keller, TX last Thursday. The Friday evening before our washer/dryer were supposed to be delivered, I received a phone call from a computer telling me our items would be delivered between 4 pm and 8 pm on Saturday. At 8:26 am Saturday morning, I got a call from the Lowe's (third party) delivery team saying they were, "on their way to our house." When they arrived, I was told that they had the dryer, but not the washer. Side note: our old clothes washer is inoperative. Our old dryer works perfectly: we just wanted a matching set.

    After wasting nearly an entire day trying to get our new clothes washer delivered, I finally gave up and told the Southlake, TX store manager to cancel my entire order. She was apathetic, and actually seemed happy to cancel our $1372 order, rather than try to fix the problem. Especially, it seemed, since she had "done everything she could possibly do." With one phone call, she could have had our new washer delivered in less than 2 hours from a nearby store (which I identified with 3 phone calls). Instead, all she wanted to do was lecture me about computer glitches, company policy, and their "third party" delivery company. In other words, CYA! At which she is very good!

    After more than five years, it might be time for the Lowe's board to consider a new CEO. Clearly, Marvin Ellison either doesn't care or isn't paying attention. Home Depot will be delivering and installing the same brand/model/price washer and dryer set within the next few days. I will never again step foot in a Lowe's store. Sincerely,

    I scheduled a fence installation for my porch. I had to keep calling them to find out when will it be installed. Told everything was in stock at time of purchase. Then a week past and still nothing. Then I called again and they schedule the install. Didn't tell me the materials would be delivered a day before install and I was out of town when they delivered. They then delivered the wrong size material. Then they said they would deliver it the next day before install. Still no delivery. Then when it finally was installed it was missing some caps to the post. Called Lowe's again and they said they will get the installer to pick them up and install them. A week later called and they said they had the caps in stock and they will see what the hold up is. TERRIBLE! They just can't get right!

They indicated that they need a building permit to replace parts on my house. When I didn't take the bait they indicated a few days later that there was a "sale" and they would do it for $2,400.

    I can not begin to tell you about the overhaul needed at Lowe's with its communication and installation services. Bought Whirlpool appliance set from Charlotte East, online, and had it delivered. Delivery was well over past the time frame indicated for delivery and we had no phone call about being late, nor did the men apologize or say anything about being late when they arrived. Needless to say, the lack of contact to try and get a hold of someone.

    Then the installers came, with only one spoken broken English, hard to understand, did not know what they were doing as they did not install correctly. They did not test of the washer. Upon a practice wash later, found the drain hose loose, not attached, washer shaking, unbalanced when doing a test wash, dryer hose stiff and nonflexible and came off the next day! Tried to call back to get this resolved and complain, Lisa at customer care, who we finally got a hold of with round robin prompts, was told the problem and she put in the order/request to have someone come back out.

    24 hours went by, no phone call...Called back, after another round robin tagging to get a hold of someone and the asst manager at Charlotte East store indicated that there was no order in for return check for the poor installation; so Lisa had put it as a comment on the order but did not put the request in as an order itself.!! Dryer and washer has sat unused for a couple of days, waiting for a call back regarding this...Here it is 5/22 and delivery was on 5/20.

    My wife and designed a custom kitchen island with Lowe's. The estimate and contract they sent us includes the cabinets and countertops along with KNOBS. They shared an offer if we applied for and was approved for a Lowe's card we would get an additional 10% off. We signed the contract and were approved for the Lowe's card. The design team told us we had to go into a physical store and pay for the project upfront with the Lowe's cc information provided in the email we received. We went to one store and they informed us the sale of the island hadn't loaded into the system and we needed to wait for the design team to transfer into their system to pay. We waited 3 more days and received notification that it was in the system so we went to a different store where we were told once again the sale wasn't in the system and they were having computer issues company wide.

    I contacted the design team and they apologized profusely for having me go to a store twice and not be able to pay for the island because of their system issues. The design team advised they would have a store manager contact me the next day to get this transaction completed. Guess what- no one called. I contacted the design team AGAIN and they offered me a 25% off the total purchase because of the inconvenience. At this point the 10% off for using a LOWE'S card has now expired and back to 5%. This went on for over two weeks! Lowe's had to transfer the sale of this island to two different stores. In the interim I asked what would be the cost of the project with the 25% off and was sent an email in writing how much the project would be. I reached out and requested a credit limit increase based on the amount they put in writing.

    After two weeks finally a store manager at the McDonough Ga store finally emailed me and said she was ready to process the payment. The problem this time- the price had changed from the amount the design team put in writing. I had requested the credit limit increase based on that figure and now the sales manager tells me it was for the cabinets only. I will have to come up with the difference for the balance to include the countertop. I was livid I sent an email to the design team/sales manager advising I wouldn't be moving forward with the project due to the runaround, inconvenience, and now price difference of the project. This would mean I would have to come up with the difference of the project out of my own pocket.

    The sales manager was empathetic and completely understood. THREE weeks later the sales manager called back to see if she could salvage our business and offered an additional 5% off. That would equal 30% off plus 5% off for using the Lowe's card. Alexis apologized and offered this to make up for our troubles. We accepted. She took the payment over the phone and processed it on both the Lowe's and personal credit card and the project ordering began. Fast forward a week later the countertop brackets show up and were delivered to our home. Two months later the kitchen cabinets show up. The installers showed up two weeks later to install.

    After the installation of the cabinets the next step should be the countertops. When we called to schedule that, no contract had been attached to this build to trigger the countertop contractor, despite the fact that we paid for the project upfront. Once again we had to run by Lowes and find out what the issue was. LOWE'S refused to admit their mistake- the countertop is on the signed contract on the estimate on the design presentation etc. and a part of the amount we paid. We even have emails from the design center stating that the estimate is given because no one knows upfront what the actual measurements would be until AFTER the cabinets are installed.

    The emails displaying the percentage off match up to the exact amount we paid yet the Executive office rep @ Lowe's admitted she didn't do the accounting or math on the project. The only thing she knows the manager didn't attach the countertop sale when she processed the payment and somehow that is my fault as the customer? My response to that is, "Well we overpaid for the cabinets and are owed a refund."

    This project has changed cost now 3 times despite emails and contracts showing otherwise. We are sitting at the house with incomplete island and LOWE'S had the audacity to ask for MORE money. DO NOT EVER CONTACT THIS BIGBOX STORE FOR ANY CABINETRY INSTALL OR KITCHEN DESIGN. They are crooks and take advantage of customers and will both inconvenience and stress you out. When the installers came they were giving paperwork from Lowe's that we were doing a complete kitchen redo of all cabinets not a island. They held up installation because the paperwork wasn't clear for them on what they were there to do. I do NOT trust Lowe's or the people they employ as they have proven to be incompetent in resolving this matter.

    I purchased several special order doors from Lowe's in October 2022, and an installation package. The first installer damaged most of the doors and several walls. The two doors that were not damaged were installed improperly. He did not finish the first day, but tried to force me to sign a paper saying that the job was complete. I refused and demanded another installer. Lowes tried to refuse but finally sent someone else out, who again did not finish the job and brought out 2 replacement doors which did not fit and a replacement door which had been damaged in shipment. They promised to order more doors and return. After several weeks I began calling the installer, who would not return my calls. I spent hours on the phone with Lowes. The customer service reps repeatedly promised call backs which did not happen. And emails which the next Lowes representative could find no evidence of.

    After six months I was told my money would be returned if the doors were taken down and returned to the store. The second installer suddenly called and tried to set up a time to come remove three doors. This would have resulted in leaving a bathroom with no door and starting the entire process over again. I told them that, due to the damages caused and deceptions engaged in by them and Lowes, I would not allow anyone from Lowes in my house. I said I would simply have to give up and start over with someone else. Lowes sent me an email claiming “Installation Complete!” They happily kept my $3000, left me with damaged walls, damaged doors, doors that stick, doors that were cut down so drastically I can see light between the door and the jam. I will now have to pay someone to repair the damages to the walls and start over with five doors.

    My flooring was not installed properly, which led to the vinyl plank, pushing against one another, and causing them to break. I spent the last year going round and round between installer, manufacturer, and Lowe's. Finally went to the Better Business Bureau, and then spent the last three months being led to believe that I was going to have the situation made, right. This was after I presented a letter from the manufacturer, stating that it was an installation problem, sent plenty of pictures and they even had somebody come out and inspect my flooring and tell us that it was definitely done wrong. I was told today that there will be absolutely nothing done to make the situation, right. I spent $10,000 trusting Lowe's to make sure the job was done correctly. And here I am sitting at a broken floor and am absolutely devastated! My recommendation to everybody is to stay as far away from Lowe's as possible. I will never trust this company again.

    I ordered a freezer online from Lowes on April 11, 2023. I scheduled delivery on April 17th. They were supposed to deliver it between 4 and 8 PM that day. They left me a message at about 6 PM that day saying they would not deliver it that day, and that I should call to reschedule. I called Customer Service the next day and was told that they scheduled delivery for the 19th between 8 AM and 12 PM. In the morning, the scheduled time, per their app, was changed to 4 to 8 PM. At 1 PM they called me indicating arrival and their waiting. I got there about 1:30 PM.

    They had the freezer waiting by the garage door unpacked. When they placed it inside, one of the delivery drivers noted marks on the side of the freezer, while telling me that I should contact Lowes to get a discount due to the damage. I looked inside the freezer and saw only two shelves. I told him that it looked like shelves were missing. He told me that they only came with two shelves and that others had similar comments. After they left, I looked at the product specifications online and saw that it was supposed to come with four shelves. I immediately called Lowes Customer Service about these issues. After determining that they would have to return the product, I asked for a refund.

    I then went to Best Buy’s website and purchased a freezer, which was delivered Monday April 24. Later that day, about 6 PM, Lowes delivery drivers came and picked up the freezer I bought from them. Lowes system showed them making a delivery that day and time, and not a pickup. I asked the driver if he had any paperwork for me and he said no. Someone else was here to witness them picking up the freezer. I have called Lowes Customer Service numerous times about this, including getting routed to the wrong department, and have even been directed to their Executive Customer Service Relations Department. This has led to messages going back and forth to voicemail, so I left a message on April 27th that the remaining issue is that I have not received the credit for the return. This has still not been resolved. I was told that I would receive a credit upon the freezer arriving back at their warehouse.

    When I checked my security camera after the initial delivery, I saw that freezer without packaging. Why is that? Best Buy delivered my freezer in packaging and it was undamaged and intact. I am concerned that they are delivering returns and floor models. At the very least, this has to contribute to the damage and missing parts.

    Purchased over $5,000 in appliances for the remodel of a commercial building in Cullman, AL (AllSteak Building). Sales associate was outstanding. Delivery was scheduled for April 27th, 2023. Received a call that evening at 7:00 stating they didn't have time to deliver my products and would I call them back. I immediately called them back and they didn't answer and their Voice Mail was full so I couldn't leave a message. The next morning at 6:38 A.M. I received a call they would be at my building in 5 minutes. I told them I could be there in 10 minutes and to meet me on the 3rd Avenue side of the building by the Church. As I'm pulling up I see their truck driving away. They had just put over $5,000 worth of appliances on the curb and left.

    At 7:01 A.M. the driver calls me and states he left the appliances there. I told him I was to meet him and he claimed I approved for him to just leave the appliances on the curb. So now, he's calling me a liar. This third party delivery for my Lowe's product was the most unprofessional and rude experience I've ever had with Lowe's. Won't be purchasing any products for delivery from Lowe's and will likely not shop there again.

It says on the website return policy that cash back is fine. But the employee refused to assist me with my return stating that it was not reversible and that I should contact my bank. She never even asked me how I would like my refund delivered. If she had she would know that I no longer had the debit card that I paid with. So this was her mistake. I feel like I have been ripped off for fifty seven dollars. And she was rude to me treating me like a bum or thief instead of a customer. And she was not helpful at all and she was short with me.

    I purchased a GE wall oven model #JKS3000SN1SS from Lowe's in Barrie. A subsequent Electrical certification was turned down because this appliance was not labelled as safe for use in Canada. Calls to Lowe's resulted in a claim that an alternative to a UL label was attached, called a URL. Turns out that there is no such safety standard. Repeated calls to Lowe's for clarification were ignored by them. Several times they put me through to an extension that was never answered and that eventually timed out. Would strongly suggest avoiding this uncaring business and go to Home Depot instead.

    Delivery arrived an hour before scheduled without a phone call with the first lie of the day, "I called you about coming early"; my cell phone showing no message and no incoming call that morning. One man moved a wood table and knocked over a vase and water went everywhere and didn't alert me; A heavy medical device was moved along with other items and nothing was put back in place. The fridge was already put in when I saw the dent ON THE FRONT. The men said that it was an easy fix. The Styrofoam and other trash was thrown on top of a small trash can which spilled out over the floor (it belonged in their trash bag/box, not mine!). The stove had to wait for the electrician. There were other things that didn't add up, were in error, but let's move along.

    The men clearly were in a hurry to be done with the job. I was still in a state with the mess everywhere, cleaning up water, trying to get things back into place. As soon as I could (it took a long time to get all that tape and plastic off the inside of the unit, clean it and get the food back into safety), I called the Appliance Dept. The appliance manager said that I could return the refrigerator but that he REFUSED to order another and do the exchange on the same day. He REFUSED to exchange just the door. He actually told me, that if I didn't take the 10% discount for the dent (which is simply, not acceptable), they would arrange to have the fridge picked up, check it back into their inventory, write a new order and get another one out to me.

    When I asked how I was preserve the foods for all those days, he told me to put it in an ice chest (does this man live in a camper? Do all single female seniors living in a retirement community own a ice chest?). I am seeing red now. Now, me, recovering from MAJOR back surgery and on heavy physical restrictions asked him (and myself): "How many ice chests does it take to store a completely stuffed 25 c.i. freezer and fridge? How much ice? How many meals (I don't eat fast food!) for all those days? How many ice chests fit in an electric cart at Wal-mart? And, who will lift them in /out, remove from boxes, cut down the boxes, bend over putting foods inside, adding ice (my surgeon is screaming to me in my head, 'you can become paralyzed'...)? And, who pays for all of that completely unnecessary wastefulness?" Manager didn't give a hoot and kept saying, "That's all I can do".

    The electrician wonderfully arrived within an hour after the delivery men left, installed the stove and stayed to help me remove the blue plastic but the plastic had other plans. It refused to leave. We spent a total of 2 hours trying to get the plastic shreds out of the seams without success, trying denatured alcohol, hairdryers, tweezers, fingernails.... I called the manufacturer about it and he said that the delivery men were to remove that and to call the Appliance Manager for help, and that he didn't know what could be done to get rid of the blue shreds; it's not in their manuals. HUH? DUH? There was a number of other smaller annoyances and oversights of Lowe's, but that'll be for another time. Now, what are the chances of this manager helping with just another situation? Not a chance!

    It was 5 pm before I came to the first chance of taking a breath of air and having anything other than water all day. After being a loyal business and private customer since 97, into my 5th home, farm and business, where I shopped exclusively at Lowe's, I will NEVER ENTER LOWE'S OR DO BUSINESS WITH THEM AGAIN.

    Original Review: April 12, 2023

    In December of 2020, I purchased a Frigidaire Electrolux refrigerator and warranty from Lowe's. Fast Forward 2 months ago, I noticed cracks in the back panel of the refrigerator and side panels. A technician came out and said he could provide tape and if I did not like his recommendation I could reach out to Assurant (the warranty company). I reached and they were no help either. They scheduled 2 separate appointments and both times it was a no-show, causing me to lose 8 hours in PTO time at work. I reached out to the Store and spoke to The store Manager. He stated he was going out of town and would have someone else look into the matter.

    Another manager reached out to me for the work order number, which I emailed on March 30. Ten days passed with no response. Finally, my wife reached out and she said stated the email was not received. At this point I was furious. "If you never received the email, why didnt you call me back to inform me of that." This woman from day one did absolutely nothing to assist me. In fact, she was so rude even to the point of calling my wife "loco" in Spanish. As an ** to be called Crazy by a manager at Lowe's was very insulting. Is this who they have representing their brand?

    I asked to speak to the store manager but each time I was told he was busy. Then another manager picks up the call and I have to explain everything to him and his conclusion was to give me a 35% discount because no one else has complained about this type of problem. Why would I purchase anything else from Lowe's when they don't honor their warranty. I have attached not one but multiple complaints by various consumers who have had the same experience with this Refrigerator and with Lowe's. Lowe's continues to sell brands to consumers who do not support their products. Lowe's continues to sell warranties and not honor them. Lowe's continues to mislead Consumers. Something needs to be done about this immediately! I want this investigated right away.

    Day 1. Roofers came to remove old roof on house and garage. No one advised me that large pieces of wood would be flying everywhere, and items would be falling off the shelves and ceiling in the garage. Once the work was finished for that day, I came to inspect the inside of the garage. I found my vehicles paint had been damaged in several spots. The car was completely covered in wood shavings, and has scratches in the roof and left rear quarter panel, from a fan that fell from the ceiling rafters in the garage. After looking at this, I immediately called Rick the project manager, and explained to him that I was not satisfied with the respect of the surrounding, while installing the roof. He proceeded to listen and sounded very passive about what I had told him, and said he would be by to check out the damage in 5 days. He never said anything about moving the vehicle. Once again I was very unsatisfied at his attitude towards the situation.

    Day 2 and 3. No one shows up to work. No calls from Rick or Home installation team. Day 4. Roofers came back to install roof. Once I return home from work again, the front windshield to my car is now damaged. A large piece of wood seemed to have come from the ceiling and broke the front window to the vehicle. At this point I am very unhappy with the service and quality of work that was provided. I did not get any notice that my items in the garage would be damaged again, after speaking with the project manager the first day. At this point I had called Rick again to ask him why this is happening. The only answer he was able to give me was “I will be by in a couple of days to look at it.”

    Day 5 – Current day. No one has come to look at the vehicle or even offer to help me clean all mess from the wood shavings in the garage. Also, our satellite dish is sitting on the ground, and I am not sure if that is part of the installation, but it was up there and working. When I try to call the project manager and explain my issues, my calls are ignored. I am very dissatisfied in the service I have received from Lowe's. I chose this company over all of the others because I thought the customer service and installation was great. However after this experience I cannot see myself recommending this service to anyone who values their property.

    We are into the job 3 months now and my stuff is still broken, and my roof looks like crap. No help or support from Lowe' being the middle man either. This is the reason I chose Lowe's, in case something like this happened, they would help me resolve the issue. However I have been pushed aside for a month and a half. When I called and reached out to Lowe's they said they had dropped the ball on this investigation and will pick it back up. That is not good business to me. It seems I am the one forgotten customer, or maybe this is the Lowe's way, either way I'm not satisfied with the services provided.

    In May 2022 I purchased new windows and sliding doors from Lowe’s. Since this time, the job has been botched at every single step along the way. First, I was told it would be three months for manufacturing. Three months come and go and no word. Six months come and go and no word. Eventually, I learn the items have been sitting at the store and nobody notified me.

    Second, the contractor who was supposed to call me to schedule did not perform their job multiple times. When I would inquire I was told, “Oh they quit. We have to wait until they find someone new.” No timeline would be given for this. Eventually, after months of constant calls, I submitted a BBB complaint and got hooked up with Lowe’s executive customer service. They did not do much better. Again I was told multiple times a contractor would contact me and it took everything I had to force them to actually schedule me. When they finally showed up, they told me every single window and door was measured wrong and didn’t fit my house, and two were missing.

    They resubmitted the measurements and then Lowe’s decided to pay them to “make it work on my home.” I clearly told Lowe’s that should this cause any damage, they would be responsible for reimbursing me as it was not my idea. Lowe’s agreed to these terms. The contractor got everything replaced except for two items. Months later, I finally got them to replace the final two items. During this time, drywall and paint damage occurred costing me $1000 to have fixed. Lowe’s then completely went back on their word and now will only reimburse me $800. I am still missing a screen for one window. The trim that was replaced on the floor is peeling up and the contractor will not call me again. This has taken weekly calls and emails to get done and 11 months later I am still not finished.

    Lowe’s has proven itself to be a completely untrustworthy business, they only care about money as outlined by their lack of motivation to complete the work for which I paid $27,000. Additionally, their petty desire to force another $200 out of me by refusing to fully reimburse me for the damage they caused shows you exactly who you are working with. If you are smart, you will never give Lowe’s a dime of your money because that money is ALL that they care about. Whether the product or service you receive actually functions is your problem, and do not expect them to do anything to make it right. 4/2/23 – STILL NOT A COMPLETED PROJECT.

    So I ordered a Whirlpool washer and dryer from Lowe's Conyers, Georgia. I got a scheduled delivery date and time of April 1, 2023, between 8 am -12 pm. When the appliances didn't get delivered at 12 pm, I got no notice no email, or call. I figured I would log into my Lowe's account to see if there was an update. There was a message they were delayed in delivering my appliances and my new delivery time was between 12 pm - 4 pm.

    Well at the time of this review, it was approximately 630 pm, and no washer and dryer has been delivered. I called the store and that was useless, the person that answered the call had no clue and could only transfer me to deliveries. That was a waste of time because no one answers the phone. I tried the online customer service number and while the rep was professional she could not help since her only option was to call the store as I did. She got the same barriers I did, an employee that was clueless and a delivery section that didn't answer the phone. So here I am on a Saturday for at least 9 hours waiting on a Washer and Dryer that is obviously not coming, I'm out $1100 dollars but most importantly I lost time on a Saturday that I will never get back. I don't know where the gap is in the Lowe's business process that makes things like this happen but this is unsatisfactory. Lowe's, I need my money back plus since I can't get my time back.

    I purchased a washer and dryer (May 11, 2020) from Lowe's and the washer has went bad. Lowes nor Whirlpool will do nothing. I paid $400 cash money upfront and charged $528. When the washer was delivered to me it was dented up bad, and asked the delivery man, "are you sure this won't affect the washer?" And he promised faithfully it wouldn't. I sent an email to Lowes Customer support on June 3, 2020 with pictures and Lowes would not even read it. So what do you do when this occurs? I hoped and prayed the delivery man was correct and I wouldn't have any problems with the washer, but he wasn't and now all Lowes can tell me is. "Oh well we all get stuck with this," and Whirlpool wants me to pay $99.00 upfront for a man to come out and tell me the washing machine isn't worth repairing.

    I have attached pictures that provide that I notified Lowes June 15, 2020-Lowes didn't even read. I have read receipts on my computer. As you can see the subject -email itself not read and the attachments (Pictures) not read. I cannot load a washing machine up and therefore I thought if I notify then Lowes will do something.

    If there were negative ratings, Lowe's would receive them. In January of 2022, we contracted Lowe's to redo our kitchen. We had their designer draw up a design for the kitchen, and Lowe's sent someone out to measure. We paid in full for the kitchen and were told it would take approximately six to eight weeks. TEN MONTHS later, they installed our kitchen. Lowe's measured wrong two times, sent wrong cabinets, and they completely gutted our kitchen BEFORE they discovered that all of the initial measurements were wrong. We had no sink, no water - NOTHING in our kitchen except a wide-open space for 9 months. We asked them to install a temporary sink many times and there was always an excuse as to why they couldn't do it. They finally installed a temporary sink almost 10 months later and came back a week after installing it to tear it out for the kitchen install. HORRIBLE.

    I contacted the CEO of the company via email, Mr. Marvin Ellison, and was very surprised when his assistant, Christy **, replied. I thought it would move things along, but it didn't. They were just another chink in the chain and did literally NOTHING to help. All lip service, I assure you. Christy ** would call me on the phone and her follow up emails never mentioned things we spoke of on the phone, like compensation for their horribly botched job. I realized later that the phone calls were nothing like the emails, because she did not want anything in writing that she promised over the phone. Christy said that at the end of the process, they would speak to me about compensation. Instead, at the end of the process, she called me on the phone and asked if I was pleased with the kitchen and quickly wished me a Happy Thanksgiving and hung up.

    My husband finally reached out to her about it, and she took a week to get back to him. She came back and said that they thought that $2,000 was "fair and equitable" but only if I signed a nondisclosure agreement in which I could not say anything about our experience on social media, or in person. I declined. Quite frankly, it was a slap in the face. I would NEVER buy anything from Lowe's ever again, and I would never trust anything they tell you. The number of problems and phone calls that went unanswered and not addressed could fill a book. There were many times when my husband and I felt that we were acting as our own contractors because of the lack of communication and action. In short, it has been our experience that Lowe's is not trustworthy, and they do not honor their own commitments. I urge anyone thinking about using them to save yourself time and money by finding another company for your project.

    We have been having trouble with Lowe's customer service. We ordered a washer and dryer last year, they arrived on time and the washer and dryer were great, but the stands for the washer and dryer were too small. The delivery guys said they could not take back the stands (they had removed boxes and took them away). They informed me that I had to contact Lowes for them to come pick them up and either get a refund or bring and install the correct stands. We have sent numerous emails, my husband has called and gone to store to speak to the person we bought it from (could not find him) but we have not received anything, it has been hard to try and get this resolved. We have copies of the emails. Before this we have no complaints with Lowes. We still shop the store to this day but trying to get this issue resolved is hard, the washer and dryer stands were about $300 each.

    Do not EVER use them for a kitchen install!!! My 85 year old mother hired Lowe’s to purchase and install her kitchen in August 2022. It is finally finished on February 13 of 2023 when her cabinets initially showed up, the installer finally arrived and began to install the cabinets. Apparently he did not take inventory and parts were missing. I guess it was not his job to contact Lowe’s and tell them items were not there, so my brother did. So after a two month delay, the extra cabinets finally showed up and he installed them, though not completely. After this, the countertop people came and measured her countertop. When they came to install the countertop, they cut the sink out wrong, and had to return it to the store. Finally, when they returned with the proper countertop, we discovered that the installer of the cabinets never put on a piece to cover up the spice rack, which was located next to the oven.

    The job is finally complete and I have called up Lowe’s Corporate office to complain. I have called the store and ask for the manager, and I have called up the corporate office and asked for the district manager, and as of this minute, neither has contacted me. I have talk to someone at the store who is very nice but they don’t seem to want to own up to their mistakes and give my mom the credit she is due for losing her kitchen for seven months. And, of course, during this time, family members installed and uninstalled Temporary countertops so she could live, costing more money on top of the price for her kitchen.

    During this whole ordeal, Lowe's never reached out to my mom to apologize for the inconvenience, offer any assistance or offer any help to a solution to this matter (as I found out, the only person who knew that there was a problem was the person who sold the original order). If I could give this situation, zero stars I would have. And I hope this goes out to people who are thinking about using Lowe’s as a contractor to install something in their house to second think this. They don’t seem to understand the concept of being a contractor. And to add insult to injury, when confronted with the situation, they are only offering her $1200 back for her inconvenience (though over 12000 was spent).

    Man, if I can go lower that 1 star, it would make more than my day. I would love to express to the best of my ability that Lowe's is the WORST company I've ever experienced buying an appliance from. It was the time for me to buy an oven because my oven was old and it obviously it needs to be replaced so we decided to go to Lowe's because we want to experience buying from them. I bought appliances from Home Depot, Sears Online, Costco, and Best Buy and I've hadn't gotten NO problem with them and the people in those stores are very responsible and they take good care of us. Unfortunately with Lowe's, we were not satisfied with their service and their so careless + pathetic **.

    On January 22, 2023, we started buying our 2K oven from them, then it took 2 weeks, YES 2 WEEKS, just for measurement because we had to schedule. 2 weeks later, one of their slaves I mean employees were sent to our house to measure the oven, they said, we have to wait "48 hours" for them to file the measurement and call us for a delivery + installation of the oven, so we waited. It has been 3 days, and we STILL haven't gotten called so started calling our local Lowe's and they said to contact customer service, then we did and they said, "We still haven't received the files yet," and we told them that it was measured. They just told us, "Contact the Lowe's you purchased the oven." What is going on, BACK TO SQUARE 1????

    The situation gets hotter and hotter, so I went back AGAIN to our local Lowe's and told them that we have to get to them, then they said they're gonna figure everything out and it took another week and FINALLY they gave us a call. After that, the romantic continues so they told us we had to wait 2 more weeks for delivery which was inconveniencing because it wasn't even our fault and we told them, Lowe's just said when we're scheduling, "Sorry, but that's how it is". Shut ** up Lowe's. So we waited, AGAIN. But after 2 weeks, the oven is here and it was installed. The installer was just careless and stupid because he was not taking his time and he damaged lots of cabinet paint which is messed up. At least do your best! So all in all, it's a 4 week wait because of multiple delays :/.

    Conclusion: Lowe's, you really need to improve your Customer Service, lots of people are unsatisfied at you and no offense, but your company is full of pathetic pricks and they're not trained well because you didn't trained them to became professional, you trained them to become pathetic. You can improve that. Second, make the appliance delivery at least 2 weeks and not 5 weeks like I have waited. You're inconveniencing customer. People who are reading this, if you want your money guaranteed and you want to have no problems like what happened to me, TAKE YOUR MONEY SOMEWHERE ELSE!

    I paid for a kitchen backsplash and install through the Lowe's in Bismarck, ND. The installers did a terrible job and Lowe's install services, known as ServicePro, agreed to have it redone, but I had to have the same terrible installers. They made three appointments and didn't show up. After that, ServicePro told me they were working on finding a different installer. Over many months, they said they had someone lined up the next month, but they never did. When I called the local Lowe's store, I was told by the manager that this was not their problem and they refused to do anything about it.

    Eventually after MANY months of install dates that were constantly changed, the ServicePro manager would not answer my calls or texts. I was directed by the local store to Lowe's National. They agreed this had been a total mess and said they would get the install done. After MORE months, Lowe's National offered me a refund and said they wouldn't be able to find anyone anytime soon. To add insult, in order to get the refund they have told me I must sign a waiver that states I will not talk to anyone or on any social media about my terrible experience! DO NOT USE LOWE'S, they use inept installers and do not stand behind their work.

    I bought a Whirlpool refrigerator for my son and his family on 7/7/2018. I bought the extended 5 year warranty with it because I was told it could be fixed locally in Bismarck, ND if anything happened. Around Thanksgiving, 2022 this refrigerator stopped working. It took many phone calls to the warranty phone number, 888-77LOWES to get a technician to come and look at it finally in mid-December. He told us to unplug it for a week to make sure it completely thawed out and then try it again. We did that, even though we already had it defrosted. It still didn't work. Then it took many more calls to the warranty center to finally get a 2nd technician to come the 2nd week of January.

    He was not able to fix it. Now we are being told it cannot be fixed, but we have to wait even longer for it to be reviewed to determine if we get any money back. This is a family with a small child and they have been without a refrigerator for over 2 months. When we call the warranty center at 888-77LOWES, they tried to tell us nothing could be done, so we called the Lowe's store in Bismarck and talked to Katrina, the store manager. She told us the claim is being reviewed and we should hear something by 1/25/2023. Today is 1/31/2023 and still nothing has been resolved.

    Unfortunately, Lowe’s is turning into a budget brand store with subpar appliances. I purchased a front load Samsung washing machine and had it professionally installed by Lowe’s. It stopped working in only 2 years. As you can see from the pictures I took today, they still LOOK brand new. Well don’t judge these books by their covers. They only LOOK nice. I’ve had two service technicians tell me that my machine must have a defect because there is no machine that should have these issues within two years. Also, both technicians along with a technician that came to look at my refrigerator warned me never to buy Samsung appliances again (my fridge is Kenmore. It is 22 years old, and it still works.)

    Long story short of course Lowes offers no remedy to customers and Samsung only has a one year warranty. The manager from Lowe’s who returned my call, Jessica, clearly had other things to attend to that evening, because she rushed me off the phone asking “if I had any others because we were talking in circles.” She told me that they sell thousands of Samsung appliances at her store and have no issues with them and will continue to sell them. I guess her store didn’t sell one of the 640,000 Samsung washers that were recalled in 2022. Just be warned that when you buy anything from Lowe’s, you’ll have to spend more money on protection plans.

    With appliances being so expensive, you’d think they’d actually last. I only got 2 years out of a “15 year” washer. I only wash about 3 loads of laundry per month, so it wasn’t because of excessive use. I am 41 and have had at least 10 washing machines. I’ve never had an issue with any of my washing machines until I bought a Samsung. I DO HAVE A HOME WARRANTY, which is why I didn’t purchase Lowe’s expensive protective plan. And from the poor service I’ve received, I can’t imagine being satisfied with their warranty services. In sum, stay far away from Samsung washers, and don’t expect and resolutions from Lowe’s.

    My wife and I have always maintained excellent credit and purchased an item (Ashley 3200 sq-ft Pedestal Wood Stove) around 4/1/2022 and Lowe's convinced us to open a credit account to get the best price vice paying cash. The purchase was just less than $2000. Our payments were always above the monthly requested amount. The financing institution is Synchrony bank and a bit of a challenge to reach to get clear information. We paid more than the minimum payment on every payment and more than a year later, checked synchrony and realized we still owed more than half of the total. Even though our payments were greater than the amount due, the interest rate was through the roof and we would have never paid it off. The interest just continued to skyrocket.

    We had to go to our local store (4708 Portsmouth Boulevard, Chesapeake, VA 23321) to pay it off because we could not get the assistance we needed via the Lowes contact line no matter how often we called. The manager that assisted us there was respectful, understanding, patient and experienced. She made the call, helped us through the process and we were able to pay it off in full and close the credit account. She understood that the company makes it difficult and a nightmare experience to pay off the balance owed and close the credit account therefore frustrating the customers so most will give up and she patiently got us through it. After about 20 minutes on the phone with them, the account is now closed and the $831.74 (shown as the total payoff even though we were paying significantly more than the monthly minimum) changed to $752.02. We will never be robbed like that again barring an emergency especially from an obvious thief.

    NEVER, I repeat NEVER order new windows from Lowe's! This has been one of the worst experiences of my life. They use a 3rd party installer who never fully sealed my windows (there's a gap on one side of each of my windows) and now after NINE WEEKS (over two months!) and counting my windows still have freezing cold air coming thru because this 3rd party installer didn't seal them all the way on one side of each window.

    I paid thousands of dollars for these windows and no one at Lowe's seems to be able to get this situation rectified (they all keep telling me it's "being escalated" but after TWO MONTHS with no resolution, maybe your "escalation" process needs to change?!). It's like if you ordered a refrigerator and they delivered it but it doesn't work. Is that "installed"?! Don't make the same mistake I did. Go with a company that specializes in windows. This has been a nightmare and honestly, they may never fix these windows. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get this awful company to seal my windows (something that should have been done when they "installed them"), please let me know. I can't even sleep in the bedroom that the windows were "installed" because it's been freezing due to the cold air coming in.

    I contracted aluminum fence installation through Lowe’s on September 16. As finally write this review on December 29, my installation has yet to be completed. I have been waiting the past three weeks for a single corner post… My project is sitting about ¾ done. Along the way, there have been tons of empty promises and missed deadlines. We have had materials (including concrete) sit in our driveway (front of the house) for over seven consecutive weeks. Today, I was to receive the materials needed to finalize our installation. Yesterday, Lowe’s sent confirmation that the materials would be delivered by 12:30 EST. When no materials arrived, I called and was told that the delivery was “not on the truck’s manifest”… Lowe’s now claims that my remaining materials will be delivered January 2. Rightfully, I hold no trust in that.

    At no time along the way has Lowe’s contacted me regarding our project. Rather, I only get anything when I inquire about another missed deadline. In nearly four months, they have made no meaningful attempt to make this right. Not a single one. At this point all we want is what we have paid for. Again, this all started September 16, well over three months ago. If you need contracted services, I’d recommend either working directly with the contractor (which I wish I had) or trying Home Depot, with whom I have had much better past success.

We contacted installation. They said Michael is right. The order specifically says desk height and we told him to his face when I was ordering that I work from the desk 12 hours a day typically. We measured his desk at the store. Yes...the cabinets will be this high. We paid $6000 for the built ins and countertops. We can't use them because they are too tall and hurt our shoulders. We have filed complaints thru Google, thru the store and with corporate. Nobody calls us back. The assistant manager in charge of the cabinets is less than useful. She just refers back to Michael that he is correct and what we got is correct.

    I have asked for somebody, anybody to come to my home and sit at them and see how comfortable they are. Nope. They won't. I asked for the general manager to call me. 3 times. Not one call back. Lowes is the most pathetically managed business I have ever dealt with. This has been going on for 6 months now. Next step is to file suit with small claims.

    Lowe's Richmond, VA comes into your home to measure then sell. On-the-spot purchases are difficult, there is an element of pressure to decide without further research. I trusted Lowe's products and services so bought storm doors and replacement windows. Door purchase and install went fine, fees for install reasonable and all was completed in a timely manner. Windows install is unacceptable. Windows are here, delivered but the Lowe's contracted installer is booked ahead for two months and says he doesn't have enough workers to do the job.

    The installation companies are just local private contractors, so Lowe's needs to add more installers or contracted installers who work for Lowe's need to add employees to fulfill the Lowe's contact. Lowe's requires that customers pay up front, then not delivering on the products and services in a timely manner is bad business. From sale to install for 4 windows we will have waited 5 months. GO ELSEWHERE, for better pricing (windows cost about 1000, install is 3000), more timely installation.

Employees are downright rude as well. I am never stepping into another Lowe's store again as I have never experienced such an issue with their competitor, Home Depot.

    The buffoonery! I was looking for a washing machine and I went to Lowe's in Tyler Texas. I live in Jacksonville Texas. They didn't have the washing machine I can afford or like in Tyler but they looked up which one would have one. There was one in Lindale Texas so I've now drove to Lindale texas. They have a washing machine and I like it. Then they say they have one on clearance. I said I'll take it. They said, ''We'll give you a 5-year warranty on this Maytag.'' I said, ''So this unit is scratched?'' They said, ''Yes it's scratched. It works correct?'' ''Yes it works. Can we test it?'' ''No, but we know it works.'' I say, ''So if I get home and it doesn't work we're going to have a problem. I've had a flood at my house and I've had clothes on the ground about 10 days soaking wet trying to get this washing machine. I'm willing to take it myself instead of y'all having to deliver it because I need it now.'' That saves Lowe's $100.

    They then gave me $100 off for signing up for the credit card. I got home the machine doesn't work. All it does is sensing. I call them as soon as possible. I tell them I need a washing machine today. They can't do that they say. I tell them, ''All you have to do is get delivery service to bring the washing machine equivalent to that one out here.'' They laugh and say, ''Oh you're only going to get your money back, and you got to bring it in.'' I said, ''I could not bring it back. I can't load it on the truck. And I don't have fuel to come over there and I don't have time.'' Well they're willing to come get it and get my money back but you're just out of luck from there. I said, ''Exchange the washer for the equivalent washer and size and style. I don't care about the color and bring it out here and come pick up that one.'' ''We can't bring the washing machine out there for 7 to 10 days.''

    I informed them again that I've been needing this washing machine for 10 days already and I've had a flood and I got no clothes to wear and my house is being destroyed with wet clothes sitting everywhere, and I need them to fix their washing machine. It is not my fault that you sold a product that doesn't work. It is not my fault that this one's going to cost less than another one. Replace it. I'm not paying the difference. My time is valuable. My fuel is valuable. If you want to get my money back they need to give me $300 an hour which is what I'm worth and we're going to have about 10 hours dealing with this. I've made phone call upon phone call to the managers up there at store to the corporate office and all they do is send me to some call person that's going to take a report. So now I am onto writing a review on every site I can find until they fix this issue. Got a five year warranty for what? It didn't work 1 minute!

    Then the manager told me I need to call the Lowe's close to me and see if they can deliver a washing machine sooner. Why do I need to call to do your job? I purchased washing machine at your location I drove it home saving Lowe's from having to deliver it, I plugged it in and it doesn't work. I need Lowes to fix this issue right now. Get on the phone and call the delivery service and tell them we need to pick up the machine and bring another machine out there. I see no possible way y'all became this billion dollar corporation with what y'all got going on here now. This is absolutely astonishing the lack of respect and customer service. I have purchased carpet from Lowe's, all kinds of appliances and tools personally. I build power lines and when we need something I generally purchase or have my guys purchase stuff at Lowe's instead of home Depot.

    I own a business now, and I purchase stuff at Lowe's instead of all the other places I can go. Now this is the kind of service I receive. Not only am I done shopping at Lowe's I'm going to write a review on every sight I can find until they make this right. Since Lowes in Lindale, Texas is incompetent I will explain how to fix this. Go grab the equivalent washer in any color or brand. Call a delivery service, it doesn't matter which one. Schedule them to pick up the new washing machine, deliver it to my house in Jacksonville Texas and take this one back. Do I need to come work in a troubleshooting capacity for Lowe's training people how to handle problems? 11/16/22 they haven't even returned the call that was to be no more than 24 hours.

    I have very bad experience for repair my Washer. I have been waiting more than 10 working days to be fixed my washer. I am reaching Lowe's. I did not get yet any answers. Please don't buy any appliance from Lowes. I got same experience with my Refrigerator this summer. They make me to wait 3 months to resolve the problem after many calls and talks.

    My home project has absolutely been the worst customer service experience of my life. From straight incompetence and rudeness to borderline contract fraud.

    Never use Lowe's for major home projects. This nightmare began with the cabinets we purchased. The Lowe's design person we used first keep trying to design our cabinets “the way he likes it”. Then once the cabinets arrived there were incorrect sizes and a missing drawer for the master bath vanity. This in turn set back our project because the counter tops were ready to template by another company. The reordered cabinets were then sitting 2 hours away and we were told it would be 3 weeks before they were delivered. Thankfully Linda in cabinets went above and beyond to contact the cabinet rep and he went and got our cabinets the next day.

    The next nightmare was our carpet. We asked for a bonus room, large master closet, 2 guest bedrooms and a stairway. We received the estimate for carpet and padding that was $5,000 that included free installation. It stated it was for “4 area and 936 sqft” with no description of the areas. We unfortunately assumed it was for the 4 major rooms and did not consider the stairway as an area. I was there when the installers arrived, and they did not review the order with me and began work. I told them not to do the stairs because we were going to have wood put there. They said it was no problem because the stairs would be covered with remnants from the other rooms. I left, since this was a new construction home, and we live 1 hour away.

    In the end they did not do the 2 bedrooms, only bonus room and master closet. I ended up spending 6 hours on the phone, over several days, being shuffled from one person and department to another. Lowe's corporate installation finally said those 2 rooms were not part of the price and would not refund the money. When I asked to explain where the 4th area was on the contract since because the bonus room, stairs and master closet was only 3 areas. They said a small 2 x 4 foot closet in the bonus room was the 4th area…. Really? The Lowe's store manager finally agreed to give us credit of $500 for the stairway we chose not to carpet. Their incompetence ended up costing me an additional $1500 to have the 2 rooms completed with LVP. Only use Lowe's services at your own risk, they will lie and screw you.

    This company continues to disappoint me, despite my efforts to try to do business with them. My woes started with Lowe’s last year when I purchased a set of patio furniture from the store while I was 8 months pregnant. I selected the furniture and was told it would be delivered the following day. The furniture was delivered, but it was defective. There was a screw missing from the bench. I reported it to Lowe’s. They refused to replace it and instead stated they would send someone out to fix it. I waited for days while appointments were scheduled and rescheduled with no appearance by the delivery person. I went to the store on 5 occasions while I was 8 months pregnant trying to get some answers because no one would answer the phone. They kept telling me they were going to come fix the issue but never did.

    Finally I told them to just come pick up the defective furniture. They never did that either. As a last resort, I was forced to fix the brand new defective furniture I had just purchased at full price myself. I was pregnant after all, and I did not need to continue going to the store and arguing with these people, even though I was well within my rights to do so. I was told that I would be compensated for this issue and inconvenience, and, to date, nothing has ever been done. I summed it up to this being a bad experience with an individual Lowe’s store. I was wrong.

    Fast forward to this past weekend. I ordered a dryer along with several other appliances from Lowe’s. They made me make two separate orders because the appliances were going to two different addresses. Fine. They scheduled one delivery but not the other. The dryer was delivered, but they could not get it over the baby gates at my house. They said they would come back the next day and finish the installation. That never happened. They rescheduled the installation two more times. My dryer is still not installed.

    I’m currently sitting here waiting for the latest installation appointment which was scheduled between 4 and 8 pm, I called at 7:30 to make sure the delivery was still scheduled and was assured that it was. It is now 9:15 pm, and I was just informed by a rep in another state who was kind enough to call the driver that the driver had apparently “quit” for the evening. He isn’t answering any calls and never told us he was not coming. Horrible. Horrible. Horrible!!!

    As for my other order, they never scheduled the delivery. I called and then they were all confused about what happened. They attempted delivery the following day without notifying me that they were coming, so no one was home. I’m now rescheduled for delivery on that order for Sunday. Needless to say, I’m not hopeful that the order will be received. I fully advise that NO ONE USE THIS COMPANY!!!! I should have gone to HOME DEPOT!!!! I certainly tried to not rehabilitate my relationship with this company, but they are obviously not concerned about their service or my money. If I could give fewer than 0 stars, I would.

    Never go to them for ANY install services. Usually I go to Home Depot but Lowe's sells Pella windows and doors. Placed my order in April and was told 4-5 months until install and it would take 2-3 days to install. Well now Lowe's says they want to install at the end of December during Christmas time. 9 months later. In the winter. And I was told the job would take14 days now to install. The delay is because the store didn’t order trim back on August 8th. When I requested it from the salesman and the store. I asked 5 times if the trim had been ordered I was told not to worry about it. Lowe's decided to wait and ordered the trim October 29th. Guess what, it wasn’t ordered correctly and we waiting for two weeks to be told it’s backordered for another month.

    We asked Lowe's to fully refund the order for all the mistakes/lies they made. And they said they would charge us 20% restock fee. We didn’t want to pay this unfair fee so we asked if they could at least give us 10% off the order. After the manager talked with the store and district manager Lowe's told us no. They would rather refund 80% of the order than give us a 10% discount for all the mistakes/lies they made and admitted to. At the end we still don’t have a date for our $60,000 window job. They did offer a refund of $1,000 for all the issues. But they won’t give us that small refund until the job is completed. They have lied to us so much at this point I doubt they will.

    —————————Update——————

    I called the number Lowe's responded with below. After 1 hr of waiting I was told customer service can’t do anything. No waiving the 20% restock fee. No 10% discount for the Lowe's mistakes/lies they admit to. NO HELP. Just a waste of a hr of time. Just trash service. They obvious just responded to my review to try to look like they are trying to do something. Don’t be fooled.

    ——— So after speaking with the install service corporate manager (the top person. They refused to transfer me to a high up manager and had a major attitude), the store manager, the district manager, and several assistant managers, no resolution was found. And we are still waiting for an install date. The store doesn’t even have an installer on my order anymore. Because the original installer doesn’t install past November because of the cold. NEVER HIRE LOWE'S for anything. Their installers don’t work past November but they expect me to get installed in winter. I repeat. NEVER HIRE Lowe's.

    We had two Kitchens installed w/ Lowe's Installation Service in the beginning of June. 6 Months later and we are still attempting to get them to finish the installation. It was 4-5 months attempting to contact the original sub-contractor who started the installation with NO returned calls. Attempted to get Lowe's involved after a short period of time and they never got back to them either. After 5 months we finally convinced Lowe's to contact another one of their installers to finish the installation. One came out to survey the uncompleted job end of October but have not heard from anyone (either Lowe's or Installation Company) for a couple of weeks nor has Lowe's returned the last 4 emails yet.

    They also absolutely refuse to answer direct questions I've submitted countless times. On another note we are also having trouble with the new flooring we had Lowe's install. Neither Lowe's or the Manufacturer will take responsibility for warranty work on the Lowe's name brand flooring that is buckling. They each point the finger at the other person. After these two experiences with our new home we unfortunately cannot recommend Lowe's Installation.

    I recently purchased from Lowe’s a fence installation back in late March early April. From the beginning this was a good start, until materials issues. Materials were delivered delayed, obviously due to COVID materials shortages, that will be the only credit it give in this review. From time materials arrived it took over a month for project to begin, please keep this in mind. Due to the poor design from a Lowes employee the materials provided did not work. Had to back to the drawing board for a redesign, yet another delay in installation. Took 2 weeks to obtain new materials for a new design and then another for a new crew. This crew, contracted by Lowes, was initially good, but when pointing out their flaws he became very aggressive and I had to fire him. After this incident the contracting firm, owned by a man named Nader, sent another crew to complete the job and again poor quality. Called in numerous calls to IST and Lowes management.

    Took weeks before repairs could be made. Repairs were made, but this time duration was so long that my warranty became void because according to the “installer” the fence was completed in June and this was required to be stained. How is a fence supposed to be stained when it isn’t completed? I’ve tried numerous times to get this remedied, to no success. Manager Austin is a very rude individual, so DO NOT go to him for anything. The only person of any assistance was Brant. My advice, learn to do your own installation as lowes and its contractors are worthless.

    Horrible customer services by Lowe's and the "companies" they employ to do the work. No one takes responsibility for what they break in your house. I will never use Lowe's again. It's been months and I still have a new, damaged by contractor vent hood, and split wood in my cabinets from the "installation". I had a kid, the son of the contractor does his dad's run, he had never installed a hood as he stated. He not only didn't know how to installed it but when he did, he screwed right into the metal and split the metal panels on the new hood, he also put screws through my wood cabinet and split the wood right in the front where you could see it.

    When I contacted Lowe's, many emails, pictures, phonecalls and hours later they sent me to the same company and said it was procedure for them to fix the damage. They send another kid to take pictures but he had no idea what he was coming for and went to check out my dishwasher, I was like, "Aren't you here to look at the kitchen vent and cabinet?" He said, "I really don't know why I am here; I just been sitting around waiting to come here because I was already off." He took pictures and I guess they were delivered to his boss. They then had a company they work with tell me they were coming to fix the cabinet. I asked, "What about the hood?" They said they didn't know about that. I said, "Don't you have to look at the cabinets to match the stain" and the answer is "No, we'll just bring every color we have at the shop."

    I said, "No thank you," and called Lowe's again, after many calls, emails, and hours wasted again they kept on referring me to the same guy. This guy, as I found out handle the contractors Lowe's uses, and Lo and behold he said if I wanted the stain to match then I had to look for my own company, but they weren't going to pay if it couldn't be match and they had to replace cabinets. I just gave up, all of this people sounded like they were from the backwoods and didn't know what the heck they were doing. Nothing against the backwoods, but I have no other way of painting a clear picture of what I was dealing with. Terrible experience, I will never use Lowe's again because they can't take responsibility for the people they send to your house. I could have done a better job myself for free and probably wouldn't have messed up either one. I still have a messed up, brand new Vent hood, and a split cabinet.

    I just gave up; I don't have time to deal with this anymore. I guess, I will fix it myself, and Lowe's you go ahead and keep my money for the "installation" and my new hood. So, I looked up the company and they were a plumber company they sent to install my hood, lol really? No wonder they were coming around trying to check out my dishwasher. I don't care if they have an electrician license, as stated by a Lowe's rep, they obviously specialized in plumbing as stated all over their webpage.

    Terrible customer service. Do not buy extended warranty plans from Lowe’s. We filed our warranty several weeks ago. First trip from the service technician indicated there was nothing wrong with our washer. Then without returning they ordered multiple parts. The technician returned several weeks later to advise that he needed more parts at which time Lowe's said it was not worth it to fix the washer. They then decided to buy out the washer. We purchased our washer on sale. We received nothing from Lowe’s until I contacted them stating that the service company said they were buying out the washer.

    Several days later we finally received an email confirming. The email came on Saturday 10/22/2022. The email clearly stated that they would be emailing a gift card within one business day. Today is 10/26/2022. Multiple calls later telling them we have not received the gift card and I don’t want to miss the sale which of course expires on 10/26/2022. They now tell me that since it is expedited it will take two more business days. Funny how two more business days goes outside the sale Which will cause me to have to pay $400 more approximately for the washer which will no longer be on sale! I have only asked lose customer service to please honor the sales price since it is through no fault of my own that they have messed around and not provided the gift card.

    Lowe’s customer service refuses to assist in that manner and transferred me to service advantage who also was of no help other than to keep repeating that it will take two business days that they have expedited it. I have a Lowe’s credit card that we have flipped a house using. We bought all of our home remodeling things through Lowe’s for many many years as my husband is a carpenter and most of our home projects he does himself. I will never shop at Lowe’s again. My card will be destroyed. Home Depot will get all of our business moving forward. Absolutely incredibly terrible customer service.

    Ordered luxury vinyl flooring for my home. Was given a delivery date of 9/29/22. They call that day to schedule the delivery. So fine I scheduled for 10/03/22. The day before I was given a 4 hour window. Nobody showed up or call during my delivery window. About a hour an hour after my delivery window I received a call saying they would be there in 15 minutes. Just over 20 minutes later they showed and delivered my product. I pointed out that 9 boxes of the 129 boxes were clearly damage and the product inside was damaged and not usable. He took a photo then asked me to sign. I signed items damaged then my name. He erased that and asked me to sign again. I signed items damaged then my name.

    So Now the next day at my expense and time I had to return the nine boxes to the store. I was told there were 355 boxes at the whare house but had to return the 9 and order 9 more. So I returned the nine boxes and was then told I would be charged 12% more for the replacement boxes as they would not honor the discount under the original terms of the sale. Lowe's will be getting the full 129 boxes and all other materials totaling over 10k back. This will not end with this review.

Got another automated call day before that delivery was as scheduled with smaller window this time (10am-2pm).

However, she said they wouldn't be delivering anything to me today, no fridge and no washer. She said she couldn't help me change the order so I needed to call sales. I waited 2 weeks without a normal fridge. I've been living out of a small fridge. I called sales and they said they couldn't give me a discount beyond my original order.

    I originally got a discount for 10% as a promotion. They were only willing to offer me a 10% discount to reorder another product but it's already 10% off online. So basically they are offering me zero for my inconveniences despite saying that they would try to help me out. I wasted 1:40 minutes on the phone with them thinking they were going to try to resolve the issue with me. I feel extremely deceived. Had they said at the beginning that they couldn't offer a discount or make up for the issue I wouldn't have spent an extra 1:40 mins thinking they were going to try to make up for the inconvenience.

    They could've let me know much sooner than the hour my delivery was going to be made. It's not as if they didn't have other fridges available. I do not recommend Lowe's to anybody.

    My advice to anyone is to AVOID ordering appliances with Lowe's. I placed a big appliance order on August 27, 2021. After a year, the refrigerator delivery kept getting rescheduled (holding the other appliances up). I called to inquire and they said the refrigerator was "in route" from the manufacturer. My delivery date changed over 10 times. I called and visited the local store to inquire on the order multiple times and no one could help.

    When I inquired further and escalated the issue a customer service rep discovered that the refrigerator was lost at their warehouse. Though it showed the manufacturer shipped the refrigerator, it could not be found. Lowes reordered and they have dropped the ball on the order again, the order may not be in until November of 2022. In addition, Lowes attempts to charge your credit card every 7 days to make sure funds are available. I have multiple, substantial orders and the charges are marked as fraud every time. With the backordered items, this weekly charge hold is not feasible.

    This ordering process has been poor and it has put me in a huge bind. I offered to pay in advance to make sure that my order is not affected by my bank rejecting the credit card holds every 7 days. Customer Service is poor, the local store does not respond. Lowes is disorganized, unprofessional and the customer does not come first. This has been disappointing all around and this treatment should not be tolerated by consumers.

    We purchased an air conditioning unit from Lowe's online. We needed it installed and we paid an additional (costly) fee for installation. However, after the unit was installed, the cord could not reach the special outlet we have - so we needed it to be uninstalled and returned to the store. This process was absolutely time consuming and very frustrating. They kept sending 1 technician for a 2 technician job - and without a suitable work vehicle to transport it back to the store. The technicians work with their own personal cars which were too small to transport the unit.

    Lowe's outsources their installation to a company called Handy. To rectify this problem, it took numerous calls to Handy (and over 1 month of communication) where we spoke to individuals in India and the Philippines - each time with their technicians getting an incorrect work order. Finally - to simply get this problematic situation done - we had to assist the 1 technician (who was sent AGAIN) with the uninstall ourselves AND we had to use our own vehicle to transport the unit back to the store. These practices are very unfair to the consumers who spend their hard earned money; and these large companies should be held accountable for their decisions when outsourcing a service and the consumer suffers the consequences.

    I purchased a brand new Whirlpool washer on July 25, 2022, and less than 2 weeks after purchasing and only a few washer loads, it quit working. I called and they informed me that the return policy was 48 hours. They had me call Whirlpool because it was under warranty. Now three weeks later, just over 1 month, it quit working again. You cannot get service on weekends and I need to do laundry. I had to go online to schedule an appointment but the site would not let me choose a date and all you can get is a virtual assistant which is no help at all. This is a new washer and should not quit working. I am 71 years old and I have to still work just to pay my bills. I do not need to pour money into products that are defective. I do believe Lowe's should return the washer and order a replacement for me. This has had me very upset because I don't have the money to buy another one and shouldn't have to. This new washer should last me for the rest of my life.

    I would give a -10 if I could. My email to them pretty much sums it up regarding shoddy work on a $50K kitchen remodel last year. They don't stand behind shoddy work when it's more than 1 year old....I was 2 months past the expiration date!!! Well, I can't say I'm surprised even though that's NOT what you (Desiree) told me in person when I said it was over a year. You guys haven't stood behind and made right any of the screw ups that happened during my six month project. 

    This is officially it. Lowe's will never ever see another dime of my money and if I know of anyone looking to use a big box company for any type of home improvement (I'm in the real estate business) I will tell them to steer clear of Lowes as they hire contractors who do shoddy work then don't stand behind repairs. I also noticed the very critical review I gave your store last year has been removed from your the Maple Grove reviews. I guess I'll just have to write another one and mention my first review was removed! I'm also going to write a letter to directly to Schuler to let them know how you guys treat "their" customers.

    January we paid cash for a fence to be installed in May, excited as we were things began taking a huge turn for the worst. Lowes did not order enough product to install our fence no caps no gate no lattice decor! We patiently rescheduled for June and our fence was installed. What a nightmare!!! Our fence was installed with multiple large gaps underneath ranging from 3-7” when you should only have 2” maximum! We have to barricade our fence with stones and other material to keep our dogs from escaping! In addition the double gate will not close and each door is at a different height! There again we have to barricade the gate also to keep them closed or they will blow open with any burst of wind and our dog's escape.

    Lowe's “professional” installer Broken J did a terrible job installing our fence at the proper height leaving gaps and it still a nightmare trying to get it repaired. That’s awful to have to use a warranty after a company as large as Lowes has “professionally” completed an installation. We’ve contacted Lowes countless times and the service makes me angry at how little the representatives know about our case. I WOULD NEVER Recommend Lowe's for a fence installation. We have went through so much turmoil and the company did not compensate us for our troubles at all. Ridiculous!!

    I bought a washer from Lowe's in Meridian Idaho and it didn't work. I took it back and was told that it is not returnable after 48 hours. I asked to speak to the manager. Those were my only words except some friendly chatter to another employee while the woman went to get the manager. I got the assistant manager who came up to me very aggressive and angry like he couldn't believe a customer was bothering him. He said it's not his problem because I waited 45 days to return it which was false. It was within 2 weeks of the original sale date. This was the soonest I was able to bring it back to the store. I asked if they stand behind what they sell. He didn't want to answer and instead started attacking my character. He said he didn't like that I swore to the employees and that I was aggressive to them. I said, "Go look at your video tape because you just completely made that up."

    Yes I was upset at the way he was talking down to me and that they refused to accept back the broken washer they sold me, but I never swore or raised my voice. I pressed on if they stood behind what they sold until he finally said, "No we don't stand behind what we sell." It's bad enough that they refused to simply exchange the equipment but for the assistant manager to try to bully me and make up lies to try and make me look like a bad guy just because he didn't want to deal with their terrible policy is unbelievable. Even if The assistant manager would have been polite the blame falls under the ridiculous store policy. The assistant manager said it best when he said no they don't stand behind what they sell.

    Bought an entire kitchen appliance setup and kept getting the runaround. We spent a lot of money. Finally got a shipment date. It came and went. Contacted Lowe's and they gave us a ** answer. This went on for 3 months. The final straw was when we 100% were assured we would receive our appliances on such and such date. Nope. Never even put them on the truck. The reason “the dishwasher was on backorder”. This is an entire remodel. We had everything but the appliances installed. Contacted corporate and I agreed to drive an hour to pick everything up and they would knock 300 bucks off.

    Fast forward to today. Got a new washer and lo and behold it was broken right out of the box. The appliance guy treated us like we were idiots and kept sending us to other departments and managers. The STORE manager said he would call right back. 30 mins nothing. Finally after an hour he has an associate call us back and tell us they don’t have another one in stock and it would be 7 days until they got one. Nope, come get this one and give us a refund. "We can give you a refund but you have to bring it back." Oh really? Third party drivers and blah blah blah. Swears that the GE that they have in stock will be here Wednesday. We shall see.

    In June of 2020, my husband and I purchased a Maytag Topload washing machine for my mother at Oak Grove Lowes, Sullivan, MO. The transaction # is **. The Model # is MVDX655DWI. Along with the washing machine we also purchased an extended warranty plan. On June 19, 2022 the washing machine stopped spinning the water out of loads. On June 20, 2022 we called Lowes in order to get a repair service to come. The warranty for washing machines states "Lowe’s will respond to you within 7 days from the day you raised your complaint. In case, Lowe’s fails to send someone to repair the appliance, it has accepted to offer to customer $50 as compensation." This was brought up several times in phone conversations and the $50 has never been sent.

    Meantime, the repair service fixed the machine long enough for it to run a couple loads through normally then return to the problem of not spinning the water out. After several calls and hold times to Appliance RX, Rolla, MO, which culminated in talking to the owner. On the day that I spoke with the owner of Appliance RX about the problem lingering, she learned from Assurant (Lowes warranty service provider) that the control board that is needed for this machine is on indefinite back order and Assurant is just paying out on the machines under warranty that this happens to. Appliance RX said I just needed to give Assurant the case # that I was given by them and this would explain everything to Assurant, who would then issue a gift certificate for the retail amount of the machine.

    However, each phone call made took many minutes of hold time and often a hang up occurs about the time I would get through. Finally upon finally getting through with Assurant, I was told that they would have to hear directly from the appliance repair service that the case was being closed for replacement. THey said that the case # I gave them did not indicate the case was closed, but rather that a repairman was going to come again. So back to the phone calls with Appliance RX, whereupon they did make the phone call to Assurant on July 14. She was kind enough to call me back and say that it was taken care of and that Mom would have her email from Assurant within 72 hours.

    On July 15 Mom got an email from Assurant saying that "Repair is Complete". It did not say anything about the case being closed for machine replacement. After another call to Assurant revealing nothing helpful, we filed a formal complaint with Lowes Corporation on July 19. The employee (Jeffrey ID # **) that we spoke to took down the information and looked into the case. Jeffrey was very friendly and polite. He did not mention anything about an email having been sent out stating the machine was being replaced. We tried to speak to a supervisor to get further information but after holding for a while, we were told that a supervisor could offer us nothing more. So we opted to be put on hold for Lowes Service Advantage Program to see if they could help further, but after holding for 45 minutes the call was put through prompts that led to being disconnected.

    After a few more days of no emails we called Lowes again and talked to Ariella. After learning nothing more from Ariella, we were put on hold to speak with someone from corporates "inside team". We then spoke to Rose who told us that an email with a gift card had been sent to Mom on the 15th, which seemed odd to us since we had spoken to Jeffrey on the 19th and he had not mentioned that. As we spoke with Rose, we checked and were not able to find any email from Assurant, Lowes, or their electronic gift card services either in her email program or in her spam folder. It was then that Rose discovered that the email had been sent to the wrong email address. They had left a letter out. After correcting the email, they said she would have it again within 2 business days as it had to go back through their validation team to make sure that she did not cash it. How does one cash a gift card that never made it to their email?

    After 2 or 3 business days went by we called Lowes and spoke to Ben. Nothing new or helpful was learned. On July 27 I called and spoke to Amne. She said to allow 2 business days. At which point I questioned why, since we have waited 2 business days, upon 2 business days, upon 2 business days. It has now been 48 days since my 88 year old mother's washing machine quit and 47 days in which we have made calls every 2 or 3 days to try to get it repaired/replaced. After asking Amne if I could speak to a supervisor, I spoke to Rachel, who said this is the process that it must go through; however, she did add that Mom's email provider may not be allowing emails to come through with gift cards. She took my email address down to send it to...in 2 business days.

    I asked to speak to someone with the authority to send this on through without delay. I was put on hold and after a few minutes spoke to Ram. Ram assured me that 2 more business days is the necessary procedure for it to go through since each time they send an email that does not go through to wherever it is supposed to arrive, they have to send it back to their validation team to make sure it was not cashed. After getting off the phone with Lowes this round, I called our local internet provider in which Mom's email is associated. They said they have no filters that would prevent a gift card from coming through.

    A simple project evolved into a frustrating arch across 14 weeks; simply put, I wouldn’t trust Lowe’s Palm Desert Millwork Department in building a dog house for my back yard. Lowe’s association with American Building Supply (ABS), a subsidiary of Jeld-Wen Windows and Doors, is ultimately the root of damage upon the Lowe’s brand and should be strongly reconsidered as a premier vendor.

    3/22/22: Order placed; anticipated delivery 6 weeks. 5/18/22: A&C Window and Door Specialist texted pictures of damaged painted doors (not shipped with any protective covering). 5/18/22: Reordered with a request that painted doors be delivered with protective packaging to prevent damage. 7/20/22: Doors arrived from ABS; Salesperson inspected doors and indicated via voicemail message no damage was noted. 7/25/22: A&C arrived for pickup at Lowe’s and indicated their concern over damaged doors. Product was delivered by ABS to Lowe’s without ANY protective covering, despite 5/18 request. 7/25/22: A&C delivered doors for installation as scheduled and noted damage to doors. Product was returned to Lowe’s Palm Desert by A&C Window and Door Specialist.

    7/25/22: I returned to Lowe’s Palm Desert, joined by A&C team, and spoke with Managers. The “best” that could be offered to me as a customer was reordering the doors for a 3rd time, with no promise that the same situation wouldn’t occur again. There was seemingly no urgency to contact ABS to troubleshoot the issue. The solution, as presented, was not a viable solution: asking a customer to again wait 9 weeks to try one’s luck a 3rd time. I made a decision that Lowe’s Palm Desert could not be trusted to fully execute against the project specs; a refund was requested and processed in full for $3547.94. I share these pain points so others may heed my advice to take their business elsewhere. Time is the ultimate currency, and Lowe’s– and by extension, its chosen sub-contractors – wasted 14 weeks of my time. Go elsewhere!

    Original Review: July 14, 2022

    As a lifelong Lowe's customer my frustration with problem resolution and employee empowerment has taken me to spend the time writing this appeal for common sense... "Until now I've always preferred Lowes over the home town company"... I am in a circular pass along of unresolved Lowes finger pointing and no empowerment being rendered on a 4 year problem continuance... The four groups under the umbrella Lowes markets their products under for Carpet are the Dixie Group, Customer Service, Service Pro and Independent Inspection Services...

    My contacts have been too numerous to include through telephone calls, emails, dropped calls and lack of problem ownership all the while of saying it is not an install issue, not a carpeting or pad issue and each group under the Lowes umbrella throwing the other groups under the bus... Records from the early issues of problem reporting have been lost due to a I.T. System upgrade, each time the problem nears a point of understanding one must start over from day one to reset the issue playing field to educate a new associate... Along with this inconvenience you never get the same associate so you have no point person familiar with the progression of bringing closure...

    I've heard from the installers that the carpet is defective, from the Stainmaster group that it was installed wrong, we've had the 3rd party inspection measuring, testing all the loophole parameters to wiggle out of backing the product, enough is enough!!! My customer files are in your Lowes system with the exception of the details that were lost in the system upgrades, please have all parties collectively caucus and resolve this bubbling "safety issue" and perform my due process before an accident occurs...All we want is to enjoy the product we purchased without having to take additional steps legally or have litigation on behalf of a personal injury that would far outweigh the RIGHT decision at this point of the journey...

As recently as the morning of July 13 they maintain a July 13 delivery date, but then all of a sudden (and without notifying the customer by phone, email or otherwise) it gets delayed by NINE days? If it's delayed by 9 days, you knew about this delay a long time ago. Be very careful when ordering from these guys, there's a very good chance you won't get what they're selling you.

    Let me start by saying I usually don't leave reviews but I feel it's important for others to learn from what I went through the Lowe's kitchen installation. Let me also say I can't speak for the rest of the country but in NJ. In January 2022 Lowe's claimed they hired a new installation company to do their installs in the northern New Jersey area that they were very happy with. Well all I can say is it was a disaster. The guys that showed up here had no clue what they were doing. They rushed. They left here not squaring the space for the standard 30 inch stove nor the day even leave 30 inches. They also left the cabinets not secure to the wall that you could move with one hand. The kick plate they just pushed down against the tile flooring. Did not even attach it.

    I had to get this company back here. They came back after an hour. They said, "We're all done. We fixed everything." I go to check it to see that it's square for the stove opening. Still not square. Still not enough space. The cabinet stay attached better to the wall. Finally fixed it for the stove opening but weeks later finding other little problems with the cabinets because I thought the installation company never wanted to hear anything else. Never came back here. Could not get the installers to come back and fix problems.

    All my headaches and countless hours and complaining to Lowe's what did they do. They give you a lousy $50 gift card. Wow. Unbelievable. Just beware if Lowe's or Home Depot for that matter claiming that they have a brand new installer with strict guidelines no problems. Buyer beware. I've heard the story countless times and it's a shame the money you're spending on the kitchen cabinets and you just want it installed right and you're relying on these contractors that Lowe's sends over that you paid for. To have the proper training and experience and you count on these people to do a good job, a safe job or cabinets are not gonna fall off a wall or not damaged. Your cabinets that you spent $10,000 on. Do yourself a favor. These home-improvement stores are horrible with the install. The cabinets some shelves were not bad. I was happy with.

    We love shopping at Lowe's. We buy all of our appliances there and we always buy the extended warranty plans that go along with them. We had a power surge back in March, which was covered under the plan, and it damaged the refrigerator and the washer/dryer. After calling repeatedly because of 8 no-shows by the Lowe's affiliated servicemen, we were granted a food spoilage reimbursement. They finally came and made a fix. They sent an email for food spoilage, and we replied with a detailed list. No reply in return. We called, they said it was approved.

    The repair didn't work, so we had to call again. After waiting over a month without the fridge working, they scheduled a repair. 3 More no-shows. We were once again granted a reimbursement, replied with the details even though we hadn't received the first reimbursement. The repairman came and the fix was successful. No checks arrived for food spoilage.

    We called again, they said that both were approved and they would resubmit because it should have been done already. No checks. Called again. This happened 2 more times. The last time, they said they were all approved and they combined the amount and split it up differently for some reason. Fine...One check arrived for $92. The other check would be just over $300 (though both claims were just over $200). No second check. Upon calling again, THERE WAS NO RECORD OF ANY CALLS WHATSOEVER NOR CHECKS. NO SUPERVISOR TO SPEAK TO. NO solution beyond escalating to the back office who would get back to us in 2-3 days. This was the case several times and we never get a call back.

    The extended warranty plans are fraudulent. The repair companies barely show up, and the reimbursement for spoilage is a complete scam. It's just a run-around with no solution nor follow through for the plan that we bought.

    We purchased a washer and dryer from Lowe's on 8/20/2019. Recently, the washer was not finishing the final spin cycle and after looking up the paperwork, I called the warranty company we paid for. After sending a gentleman out to look at our washer, he said we needed springs and would submit the issue to the warranty company for approval. It is a Samsung washer. Several days later, we were informed that the warranty company will NOT honor the warranty and the claim was denied. I would NOT purchase another appliance from this company or purchase an extended warranty as we did for this purchase. We thought we were protected in case something should happen. When it did, we were confident that we would be taken care of as per the warranty. What a farce.

    Fix Our Home!!! RE: PROPERTY DAMAGE. We ordered an LG washer and dryer, paid to have it delivered and paid extra to have our old washer and dryer removed. The movers showed up, literally dragged our old washing machine out the door, scratched our floor, threw the dryer on a dolly, proceeded to pull the dolly down our front stairs and sidewalk like a piece of luggage, smashed our sidewalk, took a huge chunk out of our front stairs, then proceeded to incorrectly install the washer, which luckily for us, caused water damage to our wall. Our new built home suddenly doesn’t look that new. Even though I was hoping Lowe’s would feel incredibly bad and want to correct the issue immediately, I had a gut feeling that wouldn’t be the case, so we proceeded to do the following:

    I immediately called the corporate office, who advised that the store manager would call me within 72 hours. That was 10 days ago, I’m still waiting for a return call. I then called the store we purchased the items from (FRANKLIN) and they cheerfully stated someone would call back within 72 hours. I’m still waiting on that call too. My wife calls both Lowe’s corporate and the store the following day, only to be placed on hold for an hour and then get the same reply, “we’ll call you back within 72 hours”. Yup, my wife is still staring at her phone, waiting.

    As much as we wanted to believe the Lowe’s delivery service guy that jacked up our house (yes, I know, Lowe’s contracts out the movers, but guess what, that’s YOUR problem to fix, not your CUSTOMERS), would file a claim (as he stated he would), we decided to take a nice drive to the Franklin Lowe’s store on Saturday (now 5 days after “delivery”) to check on the claim in-person. Well, well, well, to our surprise, no claim was filed. After waiting roughly 57 minutes to speak to an ASM, we sent our information to him (pictures and a recap), with his promise that this will be a top priority and we would hear from the claims team within 48 hours. Fast forward 6 days (per my calculator, that’s 144 hours) and we’re still waiting. We followed up, nothing.

    My message may carry a sarcastic tone, but in full “transparency” (a key word I’ve heard from a couple of your team members), this is the worst service we’ve experienced in a long time. How is it acceptable for any of your team members to know one of your paying customers had their new home banged up by YOUR workers and the customer (not the company at fault) is trying to fix the issue but is getting ZERO assistance from the company?!? In today’s market, how is that ok? To feel like you can disregard someone’s valid complaint and not EVEN RETURN A CALL is unbelievable. If you think we’re going to disappear because you’re ignoring us, you may want to consider a different path, as we’re not going away until this is resolved, and you fix what you broke.

    Lowes at Royal Oaks, Store 1131. 2610 Kirkwood, Houston TX. On 3/5/22 I purchased a Frigidaire cooktop and was given an installation date of 3/21/22. Four months, one substitution, numerous delays and several excuses later, the revised installation date is now 8/10/22. You have had my money for four months, and I am not making any money on my money---but YOU are. It's outrageous. Four months later, I now have only one working burner on my current cooktop. You try cooking meals with one burner! Outrageous.

    In May, I was promised a refund/rebill discount for my troubles, by the sales dude, John **. Never happened, and the GM of the store, Anthoney **, has ghosted me. I have visited the store personally on three occasions, and called numerous times. While Lowe's employees have given me promises to make good, or to call me, or notify me--they've all resulted in broken promises.

Upon calling her manager, Jim **, who had already spoken to Cindy and gotten a different version of what happened we found out that Lowe's in Joplin will in fact NOT honor the military discount WITH a disabled veteran's ID, phone number etc. because they are physically disabled and unable to stand at the checkout.

    Lowe's Home Improvement is great for stocking their shelves so that the buyer consumes more, but when it comes to service, they are far from understanding the basics of client satisfaction or being client-centric! I needed my backyard fence fixed. Despite initial minor delay to get an estimate, everything went well up until payment was made. From that point on, forget about the service! Two months later, the material (wire/concrete, poles, etc) was dumped in my backyard and that was it! Nobody even bothered to call to update me on the next steps. It's been one week. No call, no email, nothing! I have repeatedly emailed to let them know that I need to schedule installation before I travel for the summer, but there is no response from anyone. I just wasted $2.3k! I am mad as hell! Most expensive lesson learned! Save your money. Stick with Home Depot. Best in being client responsive.

    Lowe's Home Improvement contracted with Huber Home Improvement to remove old fence. This has become a nightmare. Ignored CONTRACT specifications, installer damaged wood, nails sticking out everywhere, fence moves, washed out concrete up to 4 feet, put my old concrete/old posts in post holes, when was supposed to backfill to ground level the mound around posts. Concrete was estimated at 4000lbs plus short so installer shoved old concrete from posts in post holes. No concrete below posts. I have posts, numerous that were cut with circular saw, three times per post. Installer, Huber did not measure and cut rails but nailed and cut on posts. Killed my grass and plants with debris piles and stomping plants to death - dirt loaded with old wood, nails, staples, concrete, labels, cigarette butts on my yard and thrown in ditch area.

    Anything Huber employee did not feel like cleaning up. Old picket bottoms still highly visible and Not removed. Used really bad wood from Lowes..with gouges, holes, split, not treated right, pickets are just weird. Some angled like V at bottom gapping at top. Nor all are to the ground as contract specified. Gate posts and gates assembled incorrectly, with split wood, nails stick out. Nails hammered down at angle..wobbles like it is disjointed. Fence was to be done in 2 days..Almost a month later I have no fence, and the damage is extensive both to fence frame and MY PROPERTY..

    I ordered a fridge, not knowing Lowe's used a sketchy third party delivery company. The guys coming to my home looked a mess and were very unprofessional. My request for them to wear a mask has led me to still not having a fridge. This is day 3 now of my family's suffering. I asked them to mask up before entering my home, they asked why and told me they didn't have mask on their truck. I told them store was right up the street. They could get some there.

    I told them COVID and Flu is out here and I didn't want to risk my family getting sick because we have an upcoming vacation and I needed to protect my home. They called their manager and she called me telling me covid is non existent and she doesn't require them to wear mask at all. I explained to her I have to protect my family and whether or not it is required by their company. It's my home and my preference. It's required by me. She then contacted Lowe's and told them I said my family had covid and they will not deliver the fridge.

    Day 2 I was told my fridge would come today, and before delivery Tim W. with Lowe's called me and told me that they will not deliver because they were told my family has covid. I explained to him what happened and that was not the case. He then had me contact Amy ** (belleville east Lowe's). I talked to her and explained what the situation was. She was very inconsiderate of the fact that my family and I are still without a fridge, and basically said there was nothing they could do. I need to call the third party company. Why do I need to contact them. I purchased a fridge with Lowe not the third party company. I paid lowe's not the third party company. I asked her how would she feel if all she was doing was trying to protect her family and was treated this way all because I requested them to wear a mask before entering my home. Her reply was "I can give you your refund there's no need to come up here for it."

    Are you serious!!!! This is by far the worst experience I have ever had with a company and I was a loyal customer of lowe's until now. How could you all even have dealings with a third party company that does not respect people preferences. This says a lot about the corporation and who is running things. And we still have no fridge all because I asked the sketchy delivery men to mask up before entering my home.

    The worst service I could have ever expected out of a retailer that doesn't seem to care. I'll explain... I ordered all new Pella windows for my house April 2021 spending $24k from the Naperville IL Lowe's. The windows showed up in June. The soonest the installers could get us in was July. During the installation it was discovered that 2 were broken completely, one window they installed with a broken window insert and a part missing on another awning window. The installers assured me they communicated back to Lowe's everything that was needed after they installed what they could. This is where my nightmare begins. A month goes by and nothing from Lowe's. No confirmation or any signs of life that they are taking care of my order.

    I have to call them and email them to only to find out they have not done anything with the replacement order nor the insert or the parts. So it took me calling to initiate the reorder of the broken windows while I'm on vacation mind you. The store promised me it was all taken care of. I had hail damage and was waiting for the windows to be installed so the siding folks could come in afterwards... October comes and I finally have to commit to getting my siding done before the replacement windows arrived. The installers taped around the outside of the windows so that they would hold the elements out until the installers could install the last two windows.

    Fast forward to November when the replacement windows finally show up. The installer tells me Feb 8th is the soonest and won't budge. What am I supposed to do? So I wait until February and they deliver the windows to my house. On the scheduled date of installation only one installer comes out do a second story installation and reschedules on me because weather conditions aren't that great and was also looking for any excuse possible to reschedule. He calls his boss who apparently was on vacation in Florida complaining that he isn't going to be able to do it. Fine... At this point what's a few more days to wait for better weather and get this done. Plenty of warm fantastic days go by and nothing...

    I unwrap my windows just to make sure everything is in there and sure enough one of the windows inserts that needed to be replaced was not in there (even though they said they ordered it). That window keep in mind is broken where it locks the window. So no security issues there at all being on the ground level... I call the store Late March to address the issue and talked to Ray. He reassured me he was going to look into it. ALL of it and he would get back to me. He... Never... Called... Fast forward to may 4th of 2022. I've had conversations with Lowe's installation services. They didn't know since it was still in "Scheduled" status even though the date was in the past? They said they've escalated it. I get the same "Well we will call the contractor" and nothing comes of it because the contractor never answers the phone. I was promised calls back on updates both Friday and Monday and sure enough my phone did not ring.

    I had to call Lowe's back on May 10th to again try to push this along and get updates when I shouldn't have to. I always have to call or email Lowe's to push progress! The coordinators solution at installation services that I talked to was they would try to call and email... do not give this company your money... I've been a loyal customer for years. I'm embarrassed to say I also recommended them to a family member and they are also fighting to get things finished. You cannot take this kind of money from someone and not follow through. It's been over a year and my project still isn't complete. There has to be a law that protects consumers on out of pocket costs up front that punishes retailers like this. I will certainly be inquiring... WHERE IS THE ACCOUNTABILITY? You don't deserve my business or anyone else's or anyone else's.

    On May 2nd, I was notified that a separate installation for my bedroom would occur on May 7. On May 3rd the installer showed up and stated that since the material was in the garage, he could not install it until the materials had been in the house for 72 hours. I did not know this. I had traveled from St. Louis for this installation and had already moved all the furniture from both areas. No effort was made by Lowe's to reimburse me for my travel or to solve the problem.

    If I could give zero stars, I would. We signed a contract in September 2021 for the purchase and installation of windows and sliding glass doors. The estimated date of delivery was January 2022. When January arrived, the date was perpetually pushed back. Some of the product was delivered mid-March and the installation process began March 30. The subcontractors installed 2 sliding glass doors improperly (they have failed inspection) and left 3 inch gaps in our stucco surrounding the sliders. The subcontractors also installed a large bay window which they either cracked the frame of while installing or installed a damaged product. Because Lowe's is the permit runner, Lowe's is responsible for contacting the inspector to do a partial inspection in order to move forward with finishing this project--Lowe's never did. I was told repeatedly that because of the way the permit is written, they could not have a partial inspection completed.

    Finally, after a month of exposed stucco and improperly installed product, I spoke with my municipality personally. The inspector was at our home in less than 24 hours. Lowe's NEVER even tried to help with this part of the process and LIED over the phone. Following the inspection, I was the one left responsible for getting the inspection report to the subcontractors because apparently Lowe's doesn't care at all about their customers. Now the subcontractors are dragging their feet to come fix the damages and failed items. This is not a supply issue now, this is negligence. Lowe's cannot tell us when the rest of our product will arrive or when we will have the damages repaired. We are looking into any and all legal options at this point to remedy the situation.

    Updated on 05/12/2022: Even though we are now able to work with ONE Lowe's rep, the Executive Customer Relations rep has no influence over a positive outcome. Repair work is now scheduled for May 30’22 (Memorial Day holiday, 6.5 months AFTER we made our claim) and Customer Relations rep is useless to escalate & improve this date! Terribly frustrating, disappointing & stressful 6.5 month warranty encounter with Lowe's. AND it's not resolved yet!

    Original Review: Apr/May '21 we purchased tile from Lowe's & they managed the tile install in our kitchen / laundry room. Within weeks, we heard unusual cracking sounds from kitchen floor. Within a month or two, multiple tiles began to make popping sounds. We filed a Tile Install Warranty Claim in Nov 17 '21 & received a Warranty Work Order (WO) #. After we made several calls each week thereafter to follow up, in Dec '21 Lowe's (contractor) visited the house & confirmed "there are issue(s) that need to be addressed". Between that mid Dec '21 visit and Mar '22, we received no follow up calls from Lowe's, so we continued to call every few days. Each time we called, we had to educate a different Lowe's representative who was unfamiliar with our claim & escalate calls to 'managers' - speaking to 2 or 3 (different) people each phone call.

    We finally learned that Lowe's had closed our original WO, in spite of their contractor inspecting work & determining that warranty claim was valid. Not only had they closed our original Nov 17 '21 WO, but had opened & closed several additional WO's since. This seems to be a way for Lowe's to "Play" with their internal performance metrics &/or a method to confuse / frustrate / distress & ultimately wear-down their customers trying to maneuver through a difficult & lengthy warranty process.

    Mid-Mar '22 we finally had to involve Better Business Bureau (BBB), Dept of Justice & other 3rd party agencies to review our case & concern with Lowe's warranty support. This triggered Lowe's to assign a Lowe's Executive Customer Relations rep to our warranty claim & the re-inspection of the install at our home. However, even though we have been able to work with ONE Lowe's rep - which has tremendously improved the warranty process - as of this writing (Apr 26 '22) there is no viable plan to address our warranty install issue(s). Terribly frustrating, disappointing & stressful 5+ month warranty encounter with Lowe's. AND it's not over yet!

The day before delivery, I received a call saying we would have to come back to the store and pick out a different refrigerator as they did not have what we had paid for. They either lied to me at the time of purchase or sold "my" refrigerator to someone else. I already knew they had nothing else I wanted (do you know how hard it is to get a white appliance?) so I told the guy to cancel the order and call me when that had been done. Still waiting.

    At 12:00noon today 0/4/2022 I went to your store at Riddle Park San Jose California to buy a household assorment and nail and I'm looking for the price for the item that I got..Then I went to the cashier or self services, I scan it the price and the price that I saw in actual is lower than the price that I scan so I call the cashier and manager then they say I have to take pic on it then I took the pic not only one item got two item..My question is what if the consumer ignore that price and they dont know or innocence in to that..then Lowe's makes money. What if a lot people to get that items that they do not know..Lowe's make money for the consumers. Thanks for your consideration.

    I purchased a White Full size bed from Lowe's, online. The bed was advertised as white and when it arrived the bed was cream. I called customer service and she told me that she could give me 5% off or I could return it with a 25% restocking fee.?? The 5% doesn't take away the fact the color is wrong. The bedroom is white not cream. The bedroom for this bed is white and now the bed looks tacky. Customer service told me that Lowe's was not responsible for what the vendor does. Really? The attitude of their customer service or lack of customer service, needs to revamped.

    In late December 2021, I purchased a complete kitchen remodel for approximately $25K. It was fraught from the beginning. One of the three salespeople completely flaked out in the middle and one was both misinformed and rude. Finally, I was given a quoted price multiple times and increased my MyLowe's card to cover the $25K. Then, the final price was more, suddenly. I complained multiple times to the store and to Lowe's corporate, and finally they honored the original quote.

    The next step was "measuring" the kitchen. I measured quite accurately, but the supposed expert who showed up ignored that and ultimately mis-measured. I spent a couple of hours getting it right. He spent 15 minutes, and I had to help him. Then, cabinets started arriving, some of which were damaged (this happens). Then, more and more showed up. The installer was "too busy" to inspect them, so I did. Then, without warning Lowe's corporate, specifically the Western Regional Manager, canceled the contract for the cabinet installation without cause or explanation. I scrambled around and found another installer. During this the appliances showed up. They were supposed to install the fridge, but even this was a struggle. The first set of delivery people wouldn't do it and the fridge was damaged when the second group brought the fridge back. More delays of course.

    So far, Lowe's owes me about $500 difference, due to their mis-measurement for the cabinets. Next up, countertops and backsplash. They're expecting me to wait a month without a functioning kitchen for their installer to "measure," then another two weeks to do the installation. I'm in the process of finding another installer, repurchasing the material, and basically starting over. Lowe's will be responsible for whatever difference in price, and I've told them, including all the executive's emails I could find on the web, that I'm fine with suing them if they don't pay me. I've closed my credit card account with them, but they keep insisting on putting whatever money they deem to refund back on the closed account. They've lied or mislead me or were misinformed or never bothered to find out the actual facts throughout the entire process.

There is NO a REASON for Lowe's to put TWO HOLDS on my account, especially since the ONE is already “paid”!!!

    Do yourself a favor and Do Not buy an AO Smith water heater from Lowe's. The very day it was installed it continued to pop the circuit breaker. Lowe's theoretically can’t return the defective product without authorization from manufacturer. Mind you this process is not explained on the outside of the carton which would have reminded me to buy a real heater from a plumbing supply store. You only get that information once you open the carton and then it’s too late. The manufacturer wants the consumer to diagnose the problem checking voltages etc. Seriously? Never buy this product.

Once they left, we found paperwork in the oven warning against using it without an anti-tip bracket. We called Lowe's & explained the problem, only to be laughed at & our problem denied. When told again more sternly, the man transferred the call. Again we explained, again we were transferred, again we explained…. When a repair man came 3 days later, he exclaimed over what he saw, but he had not been told to bring any hardware. He scheduled with us for 2 days later but didn’t come.

    I signed a home improvement contract to have a black chain link fence installed in my back yard by Lowe’s. Lowe’s charged my card on October 23, 2021 and I received my “Installation Is Complete” notice at 6:05 AM on March 22, 2022. That’s it in a nutshell! I was reluctant to sign a construction contract for the fence installation where I paid in full upon signature. However, I had entered into a similar contract when Lowe’s installed my above the stove microwave oven without incident. But the fence contract was about ten times the cost of the microwave.

    When construction hadn’t started in December I had to pester several people at Lowe’s for a start date. The fence was installed right around Christmas time but the chain link extended beyond the top rail by as much as three inches and there were no domes on the supporting posts which was not only an eye sore but hazardous because of the sharp edge of the sawed off posts. I called the Lowe’s Installation Center about twice a week from December through March to have the chain link “lowered” so it didn’t extend past the top rail and the installation of the post domes.

    The folks at the Installation Center were very understanding but did NOTHING to get someone to make the job right and complete. After another complaint at the Culpeper Lowe’s someone did come to my house with the wrong color domes and promised me the right color domes within 5 days. He never returned despite phone calls and e-mails. Finally, I went to the Culpeper store again to complain and was able to get the post domes and the installer came out to fix the fence on March 19, 2022.

    I would never again sign a construction contract where I pay in full upfront. Had I the right to withhold last payment until satisfactory completion, as in normal construction contracts I would guess the fence would have been satisfactorily completed by November, 2021. It was not worth the constant hassle and unresponsiveness I felt throughout this ordeal. It was a bad experience and am surprised it is Lowe’s. They have been better than this in the past.

Kansas City store canceled a large number of materials due to them not being stocked, without any notification. Delivery date was 3/20, they were a no show. Called online customer service, they were of no help because the local store was filling the order. Called local store and was hung up on. I went to the local store and was told part of the order was canceled due to lack of stock. Instead of store-to-store shipping, they gave a list of stores in the area that had stock. Their logistical problems were transferred to their customer. Keep the 10% military discount, I am taking my business elsewhere.

    Lowe's November 4 I ordered 3 hurricane replacement windows and was given an estimate of 14 weeks. The salesperson, Richard ** ignored the design of the condo community that had grids for all windows and his concept of two windows with grids and center window without grids was rejected but apparently he communicated the rejected design to the window manufacturer even though the specs were changed. The windows arrived at the store and the installer could not install because the middle window was missing grid. Instead of getting a rush shipment of two plastic grids the salesperson simply sent an email to the manufacturer and went on vacation. The manufacturer said grid delivery would be almost three weeks later on March 24. Consequently instead of 14 weeks for installation my estimate it will be 22 weeks. Salesperson fails to expedite, disclose inform, delay information and answer text messages, calls to store department salespeople go unanswered.

    BUYER BEWARE: Lowe's would LITERALLY rather kill me than fix their damages to my home. In 2020 I was diagnosed with two types of cancer, because of the extreme financial hardship imposed by cancer treatment as well as the terrible nature of one of these cancers (and its horrible statistics) coupled with the added stress and hardship caused by the pandemic, we were chosen by my oncologist office to be the recipient of the Christmas charity they do every year. We were asked to give a list of things we needed, including one "big ticket" item. For our "big ticket" item, we listed a new fridge- stating that our old fridge was not only too small but doesn't seal properly. Our 'Angels' went to Lowes's and purchased a fridge for us.

    We were told by the organization to expect a delivery on my birthday (12/20/2020), this was after 6 months of red devil chemo, a complete mastectomy, a complete hysterectomy, and reconstruction, I was in the middle of radiation at this point). A Lowe's truck arrived at my house with a box from Lowe's, and this is where things went downhill. This was one of the WORST retail experiences I've ever had, these people proceeded to damage about 20 sq ft of flooring and break the leveling feet off of the new fridge, and THEN tried to tell me they weren't responsible for moving anything so they weren't responsible for the damages (the "anything" in question was the old fridge that they ASKED me where it should be moved to- I asked them to move it a total of 10 ft into our dining area).

    They couldn't provide me with a number when I asked to speak to a supervisor, I couldn't even get them to keep their masks on IN my HOUSE, so I just called Lowe's. This was when I first heard of the company called RTL DIRECT, a contractor for Lowe's and so begins my real nightmare. This company has drug this out over a year, tried to get me kicked out of my house (it's a rental), tried to close my case for "lack of interest" after telling me they could only deal with the owner (who was cooperating with them), they have required REPEATED inspections and repeated bids- all of which I complied with, they have repeatedly told Lowe's it was resolved (according to Lowe's).

    And despite me repeatedly furnishing Lowe's with written proof of RTL's misconduct (which has included things like having employees pose as supervisors on the phone with me, trying to tell me their inspector approved my claim for 'the amount of my deposit only' as if that's how deposits work and then instructing him to block my number after I told them I had spoken with their inspector again that morning and he denied this and asking them to intervene, I am fast approaching my lease renewal time (again) with RTL Direct once again trying to get me out of this place so they can do repairs cheaper and Lowe's (again) giving me the absolute runaround.

    After reaching out (again) to their "executive customer service"- the first time I did this was last summer- and once again IMPLORING them to intervene- I've begged them for several alternatives from them advocating for me to them just doing the repairs themselves, I've been handed off to a woman who told me she couldn't help me last spring, and told me I have no choice but to deal with RTL Direct because my issue is with them, not Lowe's. I maintain that I NEVER hired RTL Direct for anything...

    I made a purchase from LOWE'S. It's now been almost 2 weeks since Lowe's shuffled me off to this woman... I have called her several times, she has returned my call once (and didn't reach me). Meanwhile, my only contact for RTL Direct told me he would file harassment charges against me if I contact him again (this was during my second contact with him in a month's span). I am so shocked and appalled. (Any lawyers out there want to help me?)

    I had contacted Lowe's through chat to ask about the Valspar 1 coat guaranteed paint. I told them I had used the paint, but they still said to go to the store to return it. They never mentioned reaching out to the manufacturer, which in fact, would have been much easier for us since our Lowe's is 30 minutes away. When we got to the store, we got a different story. They're telling us we can't return it, and to contact the manufacturer. The customer shouldn't have to deal with the fact that the Lowe's employees are not on the same page about policies. That's the frustrating part. The fact that we explained that we had driven so far and even had screenshots of the customer service chat telling us to return the paint, should have prompted the manager to see what they could do. Instead, nothing was done.

    Lowe's is the only hardware store in the town that we live. There is a Home Depot 45 minutes away in another town. I can guarantee you that we will make this drive versus spending anything more at Lowe's. We did a house flip last year and we were in Home Depot at least 3-4 times a week. Over the entire year, we never had one instance of bad customer service that would prompt us to spend time to write a one star review. This is just bad customer service.

    I purchased a fridge, over the stove microwave, and a double oven from Lowe's, in 2018. After 6 months of having the fridge, it started freezing all my groceries and ruining them. They sent A&E out to repair it a total of 6 times within 6 months, to no avail. Finally, I had enough of the runaround and contacted Nikki in Customer Relations. She had the local Lowes store send me out a replacement fridge.

    My microwave stopped working around 2 months ago. Lowe’s sent a company to work on it. They never got back to me, so I contacted them on 2/7/22. They advised me that an email was sent to Lowes on 1/31/2022, to notify them this would be a buy-out, which means that the microwave couldn’t be repaired. I called the local Lowe’s store and spoke to Daniel in the appliance department who had no information about this. I called back and spoke to Demetrius, a manager who had no information and referred me to their warranty department. I called the warranty department and spoke to several agents and was on hold for a total of 1 hour waiting to speak to the agents. I was advised that they were requesting a buy-out and that I would receive a refund check in 7-10 days for the amount that I paid for the microwave.

    On 2/16/22, I called and spoke with Jakarta who informed me that it hadn’t been issued. I called the Executive office and spoke with Nikki who informed me that she would investigate it. She called and left me a voicemail message stating that a refund would be issued. So, nothing was done until 2/16/2022, until I complained to the Executive office.

    I’ve been without a microwave for 2 months, now. Their warranty process is deceptive. When they sell you the warranty, they don’t advise you of the painful process and that you may be without your product for months, and that you will have to continue to follow up on the process, and eventually complain to the Executive office to get anything done. I will NEVER purchase an appliance from Lowe’s again!! They are beyond unprofessional.

    Lowe’s contracted out to Legacy’s Flooring who did my kitchen backsplash incorrectly. First of all, they grouted where it should have not been. Secondly their measurements were off which caused some of the tiles to not fit properly. Third, gaps between the tile and cabinets were too big and the grout left a gritty residue on my finished cabinets which is impossible to remove. FACTS: Use silicone caulk to fill the gap between any tile surface and cabinets. Caulk used to fill the gap between a tile backsplash and your cabinets will create a waterproof, flexible seal between the two surfaces. Grout will not effectively seal this gap. Not only is it messy where it comes in contact with cabinets, but it is also prone to falling out of gaps between two surfaces. If gaps are not sealed with caulk, moisture can infiltrate your walls, causing mold or destroying your backsplash.

    This install was done on December 23, 2021 and the grout used between the tile backsplash and cabinets is already cracking and falling out. Legacy sent out one of their employees to inspect and they said what I was expecting them to say. It’s done right and he would have done it the same way it was done along with a lot more excuses for this lousy work. When I show pictures of this install to ordinary regular folks they say it is horrible. Since the company is bias and refuse to accept responsibility for this, I would like a refund of my money so I can get it done properly. I consider this a breach of my contract because I did not get what I contracted for. I might as well went with any old jack leg and got better resorts, or did it myself.

    We ordered a stackable washer/dryer from Lowe's on a Thursday. We made sure to include everything we needed to install the washer/dryer (installation kits, stacking kit, duct, hoses, etc). The delivery came Friday morning, but the truck did not contain a washer - only the dryer and all installation kit parts. This is when we discovered that the washer was being delivered from another store and would be delivered in a second delivery. The first delivery truck left all our parts and the dryer with us, and they hauled away our old washer/dryer in anticipation for the delivery and installation later that day. When the second team comes to deliver the washer, they inform us of the following:

    1. They are not "allowed" to install gas dryers per company policy.

    2. Neither of the two men delivering and installing the washer have ever installed a stacking kit on a stackable washer/dryer.

    As a result, they left our washer/dryer sitting in the middle of our dining room, and we were informed by their dispatch that they would reschedule for the next day (Saturday) and have Lowe's give us a call. Neither of those actions were actually taken. We received no follow up call and a new delivery/installation was not scheduled for the next day.

    We then call on Saturday to speak to someone in the delivery department only to confirm that nothing was scheduled on Friday afternoon for that Saturday and she could not send anyone out until the next day, Sunday, pending weather not preventing installation. Sunday comes and goes with no call, email or response regarding the installation despite the fact that the weather did not prevent cars from safely driving on the roads.

    We then get a text Sunday night saying they will be coming to do the installation the next morning, Monday, between 8 am and noon. Monday morning comes and no one shows up. I have a missed call at 7:15 AM from a random number and no voicemail. Because I was asleep, I missed the call. However, no one came to our door to knock or ring the doorbell, which would have been ideal given that my wife was awake and could have let them into our home to install the washer/dryer.

    I call back the delivery department and am met with a surly woman who continuously interrupted me and was unhelpful. In the midst of our interaction, she puts me on hold without saying anything. I am taken off hold to find out I was transferred to someone who could apparently help me authorize a larger discount on our order for the repetitive issues over the course of the last 3 days.

    The man on the phone, apparently, has no context of my situation but informs me he is "someone who can authorize the discount." I explain to him that we want a 30% discount on this order because Lowe's, and specifically their team and their store, has been completely incompetent, inept and unaccountable for this order's delivery and installation over the last 3 days. Instead of asking for more information, he says "I'm not going to authorize that amount because I don't see any reason to do so." At this point, I am livid with the lack of communication, lack of courtesy and lack of accountability from anyone across the array of human beings I've had the unfortunate displeasure of interacting with at Lowe's.

    I sternly explain to him all of the trouble we have gone through and all of the incompetencies of the last 3 days from his team and other Lowe's employees. He then responds by saying, "Give me a second to take a closer look at your account and order" and puts me on hold. At this point, I am flabbergasted at this complete and utter lack of attention to detail, lack of care, lack of concern, lack of customer service and, quite frankly, total lack of competence and complete arrogance of this person to assume I am wrong in my ask and that I have no just cause for asking for this discount when he hadn't looked at the account or the order to see all of the issues we've experienced over the past 3 days.

    After putting me on hold to do his research, he sees that I am correct and finally gives us the well-deserved discount. I am then informed that the install team schedule is "full" for tomorrow and they cannot schedule us until Wednesday (it's Monday and we've been without a washer dryer since Friday). For whatever reason, our installation is not a priority enough to get us put onto the schedule despite it being 3 days late. We are apparently scheduled for a Wednesday installation, at which point we will be 5 days with an uninstalled washer/dryer sitting in our dining room and bedroom and thus without a working washer/dryer.

    At this point, I feel as though our order should be free. I will never in my life again order from or shop with Lowe's. I will actively dissuade everyone I know from using Lowe's, shopping at their stores or ordering products online. This situation is pathetic and Lowe's corporate should be ashamed of how poorly they hire, how poorly their stores are run and how poorly they run their company overall.

    Save yourself the headache and find a local contractor. Signed a contract to have 6 windows installed less than a year ago. Four months in and two of the windows are leaking. Called the service department roughly 20 times to get a window contractor to fix my windows. Nothing. I finally find out the contractor no longer works for Lowe's.

    I file a Better Business Bureau complaint and someone from customer service reached out to me. He stated he is going to help. Oh boy did he lie. Basically he told me my one year warranty is nullified since the contractor doesn't work there, and if I get anyone outside of Lowe's to do any work on them, it also nullifies the warranty. Kicker is, he was not helping as the only contractor in my area that works for them did not want to come to assess my windows. I was never given any other options but to find my own contractor and I will get reimbursed (but was not told that my warranty would be nulled if I go this route).

    Found someone, submitted the quote and was asked to sign a new contract that cancels my current warranty altogether and also states I can't talk about this situation publicly. I explained, "I would not sign this as I am not giving up my one year warranty for your contractors not doing their complete work, just to have my windows finally completed". Basically was told, "I understand and I'll do everything to help" but still no resolution to the problem. So I ask if they can get another contractor and finally a light bulb went off in this man's head. Contacts local district manager to have another contractor outside the area to contact me. Never contacted me and gave an extra couple of days.

    I finally write an email to him and some top executives that they have 14 days to refund me for my entire amount or I am taking this to the legal direction. Never heard back from them, but then mins after I send the email, the new contractor calls me to schedule a time for them to assess my windows. Not sure if I can trust any contractor of Lowe's to do a job correctly.

    Save your money, time and aggravation and go elsewhere. Lowe's is a joke when it comes to installation and customer service. If anyone would like additional info on my experience, please reach out....more than willing to share this nightmare to save you from the grief. I have a video of my leaking window and my contract. Don't want to put my contract up here with all my personal info. This system won't allow me to upload a video. I also have call logs of the initial times I had to call the service center.

    Purchased a washer & dryer in the store because I needed to confirm they had them in stock so they could be delivered the next day. When they delivered, they only brought the washer and wanted me to schedule another day for the dryer to be delivered. It is next to impossible for me to get off work for their delivery windows. Since I needed the dryer on the day it was promised for delivery, I am trying to cancel the order but customer service keep putting me on hold and disconnecting. I am still on the phone going through their automated messages again attempting to cancel this purchase to get my money back. Very disappointed and frustrated with Lowe's customer service and feel like they provided false information to make the sale because I had told them I needed to make sure they were in stock before I would purchase from them.

    On December 14, 2021 two Lowe's installation technicians arrived at our home to perform an installation of a new dryer. After approximately 5 minutes, we were advised that the universal connector purchased with the dryer would not fit our existing gas line and the technicians left without hauling away the old dryer which was paid for as well.

    After approximately 45 minutes my wife and I began to smell a strong odor of gas and immediately contacted a local plumbing company to make an emergency visit. When the company arrived we were advised that the Lowe's technician had actually snapped the gas value and attempted to cover up the situation by reattaching the value with some glue. Gas continued to leak into our home unabated during this time.

    At this point we were told to evacuate the home with our animals due to an extreme risk of explosion. This was an egregious error and cover-up on the part of the Lowe's technician that placed my family's lives at risk. After contacting the Lowe's Installation group and Lowe's Executive Support team, we received an offer to pay for the extra costs we had to incur to rectify the situation caused by Lowe's but little else in the way acknowledgement of an extremely dangerous situation the company caused. The management team of Lowe's does not seem to care and attempts to deflect the blame to the installation carrier.

    I ordered a washer online from Lowe's. It said was in stock and they had 3 in store for pick up that day. The order was finished Online around 2:30. The store was an hour away that had the product. I made it to the store about 3:20-3:30, went in and checked on the order and they said they was pulling it now and it should only be a few mins. Another hour went by then I was told they can't find the product in the store and they even said their computer shows they have 3 left in stock. Now about 30 more mins went by and they said, "See if you can find another one and we will let you know if we have it." Needless to say the only things that had was about $300-$400 more than the product I have already paid for and was not going to give them more money for a few more features.

    I then asked them to see if there was another store I could just go to since I already paid that would have the item and I could go pick it up. So they found another store an hour more away from where I was now and I could get it, so they put a hold on the item. Then 10-15 mins passed and they said something like, "We have to ICB it to this store," and I would be able to pick it in 2 days. At this point I am tired. It's a runaround & now I have to wait even longer. This location in Dayton, OH is a mess. This is the last time I ever deal with Lowe's and I will go elsewhere. Total time wasted for this day dealing with Lowe's was about 3 1/2 almost 4 hours. Called their Corporate number and reported the problem and they said they will handle it and send my Complaint to the store Manager. (That's not how you fix a problem.)

    I just bought this item at Lowe's. I like the fact that no batteries are ever needed. I somehow managed to get the unit out of sync. The instructions are clear about getting it back in sync. But when I was out of sync, I discovered that two presses on the sender would activate the chime. So, I put a label that indicates to press twice. I did that to ensure that the chime activates in case I get it out of sync again. The fact that I can plug the receiver unit into any electric outlet is a plus. I'm not having any problems hearing it anywhere in the house, except if I were down cellar, I would need to have the receiver plugged into a cellar power outlet. Also, in order to keep the speaker away from the outlet wall, I'm using a power adaptor as a standoff to allow for more audible range.

    I am a regular shopper at Lowe's store in Fremont, CA, store #1895. I purchased several window coverings (Levolor and Bali brands) back in early September.

    Major Problems at store: - This store only has one person in the "home decor" department, who can work the software system and create proper orders. but he has a medical condition and is on medical leave most of the time. He is absent weeks at a time, and only works a few hours per week if he is there. So, it took them 2 months to re-order some missing parts, because management was unable to do anything and didn't even bother to take my calls.

    They didn't even know when the only capable person would come back to work. I had to call every day for 2 weeks to see if the guy is back and making sure, he will order the parts. Then he ordered from the wrong vendor...again 2 weeks of wait. Also the installers did not notice all the missing parts the first time. They had to order again (again 2 weeks wait). Not to mention that they drilled a hole in my window seal and didn't bother to tell me. We noticed after they left and had to call the office to have them come back to fix it. In contrast, I have only had great experience with Home Depot customer service.

    Lowe’s customer service does not even remotely compare to its major competitor (we all know who that is). Unfortunately, the competitor’s politics do not align with my beliefs, so I thought I would give these guys a chance. They blew it, first interaction. I will have to bite the bullet and patronize the other now. If you can’t even get something simple right the first time I deal with you, then that is not a great sign for future interactions. I ordered a gas fire pit and some rocks that go in the pit. I chose the option to have the order sent to my home. After the order was placed, I received an email telling me to pick it up at a store in San Jose, California, I live 600 miles away!

    I immediately canceled the order and tried to place it again. I was then given an error message when trying to re-enter my gift card number, telling me the balance was at zero. I called to have this rectified, only to “greeted” by a person fumbling with the phone line on the other end, long pause, then a “hello”. Her name was Linda, and after asking, she proceeded to tell me the gift card balance “normally” will be sent to me on a different gift card in the mail. I asked for proof of this as she didn’t sound too sure of anything… at all. Her reply was, “what do you want me to do about it”, so by then, I was fed up and advised her I just want my money back so I can spend it at their place of business. She proceeded to speak to me condescendingly, so I asked to put her supervisor on the line.

    After holding for 20 minutes, Dawn, the alleged supervisor came on the line to tell me my gift card balance would be mailed to me in 2 separate mailings with 2 different gift cards within 7 to 10 business days! I advised I needed the order sooner. Her reply, “you can go ahead and place the order before you receive the gift cards in the mail”. I then asked how I could apply the gift card balance to an order if I place it before they arrive. Her reply, “you can’t”. By this point, I was just laughing because ordering an item online should not involve this much stress and not be this complicated. AVOID THIS PLACE if you enjoy peace and sanity.

    Day of installation: no show. So I called them and they said they're at another site and they'll come later. I call once again and they say they're not coming but they'll come the following week. The next installation date comes, it rains so they cancel. The next installation: they can't come because they hit a septic tank and now they need to deal with that. The next installation: they come and find lowes delivered the wrong materials. THEY LEAVE WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING. So I called them and they told me what happened.

Similarly, when I bought an oversized ladder from Lowe's last year, went to pick up and they couldn't find it. Service counter had me wait full hour for "manager" who never showed, then never called and couldn't be reached by phone for three days. Again, service issues not worth any cost savings. And service issues are common in my experience.

    Trying to update our newly bought condo we bought this subway tile from Lowe's. During day lighting the tile blends in with the other tile, which is of no fault of the installation, but at night with the lights on the tile looks like the photos. Lowe's response was they can only offer a refund if we bring every tile back undamaged. The tile is fully installed making that absurdly impossible. But don't worry, you will get a 10% discount on future tile from Lowe's where you will most likely get the same result.

    We went with Lowe's expecting them to stand behind the product they sell to a consumer. Unfortunately for us, they don't care about putting out crap product. We spent $1,200 for the installation of the tile in various areas and are now forced to completely redo everything that was done. With a child soon on the way, we will have to deal with all the dust created by redoing this mess Lowe's created which may cause issues for my wife and soon to be child. If you want a company that doesn't stand behind their product, please shop at Lowe's.
