    My husband just found & bought our dream home which needed a little work and new appliances. We found EVERYTHING we needed at Lowe's! Refrigerator, decor for all our rooms, bathroom fixtures... pretty much everything for every room. Lowe's employees were friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and quite awesome in helping with color schemes.

    Lowe’s selection of basic tools, equipment, and basic building and growing supplies is consistently good. Things I buy there don’t fall apart or fail to do the job. There are no specialty items or bells and whistles - nothing trendy or fancy. We probably go to Lowe’s 30 times a year for big and small items. I have 2 suggestions: More training for staff so they can answer questions with more authority. Often the answer I hear is; "I don't know. I just started." Consider Apple stores as your model for how to offer one-on-one expert advice. 2) Offer in-store demos on how to do various projects and answer questions.

    Lowe's is a big box store. While some prices may be slightly higher, you will always find someone to help find products, answer a question, respond to you. The customer service is spot on! I've never had a bad experience with customer service at Lowe's. The prices are competitive to other stores in the area. I recently hired Lowe's to complete a partial kitchen remodel with cabinets and granite; positive experience. A lot lower stress to hire Lowe's than it was an independent contractor.

    I was looking for a nice toolbox. I usual deal with Sears or Home Depot but Sears went out of business. Somebody told me Lowes has Craftsman tools So I went to lowe's and yes they had what I was looking for. I asked the Sales rep at the tools department about the warranty. He told me, "Don't you worry about it. It's craftsman. Yes bring it in if ever breaks. We change it." I was very happy.

    I build up a conversation with the cashier about the toolbox and she even said, "Don't you worry about The toolbox you got is craftsman. You get a new one if ever breaks." I walk out of there a happy customer. I ask the sales person and the cashier. Both of them ensure me and provide confident of what I was getting. Less than a year later I went back because my toolbox is breaking. What a different story. It's not warranty on my toolbox. At the end I'm losing $30 but they lose my business and I will like to formally apologize to Home Depot because I'm coming back.

    Lowe’s has always had a large variety of tools to choose from, but what sets them apart from other places is how their customer service works and how many aisles worth of products they have. Walking in you will immediately know that whatever you were looking for is in the store.

They left a number and I called it. After waiting maybe 15 minutes I decided to have a call back. They called and I missed it. I called them back and waited over 1 hour the first time and over 30 minutes each the second and third times. I just want clarification! I am spending about $5000 (at Lowe's) on my project and want to make sure it is right. What a colossal waste of time!

    We used to be avid shoppers of the home store with the big orange sign, however, upon discovering that it holds political affiliations that we do not want to support, we switched to Lowe's. I think that Lowe's serves the average homeowner better. They seem to have more inventory of "home stuff" like decorating and even cooking items. And, their delivery when ordering online is ultra fast.

    I am a landlord and I operate a rental unit at Washington DC. On 6/23/2020 my tenant reported that the fridge in the unit is broken. On the same day, I ordered a fridge from Lowes. I was told at the time of the purchase that the fridge would be delivered on 6/29/2020. I was told that it should take 6 days. Ok, this would solve problems. I move forward with the order. The only reason I made this purchase through Lowe's is, they can deliver the fridge on 6/29/2020. Then within a short period of time, another email arrives and claims the fridge will arrive on 7/2/2020. My tenant is furious, screaming at me, rightfully complaining that all his food is rotting. He can't eat anything at home. Because of COVID-19, he can't eat outside. He is living in unacceptable conditions.

    Then surprise surprise, Lowes is at work. Another email arrives, the fridge is scheduled for delivery on 7/7/2020. A day before delivery I receive an email from Spirit, the extremely incompetent company, for final confirmation and I confirm the delivery. It is 7/7/2020. The supposed delivery day. Lowes is supposed to deliver the fridge. NOBODY AROUND! NO CALLS. NO ONE BOTHERS TO LET ME KNOW WHY THIS DELIVERY DID NOT GO THROUGH.

    MY TENANT CALLS AT THE END OF THE DAY AND SCREAMS AT ME, I AM DONE WITH YOU. I CANNOT BLAME HIM. HE IS THREATENING ME WITH A LAWSUIT NOW!!!! Naturally, I call Spirit, the delivery firm Lowes works. They first claim it was not in the truck on 7/7/202. Someone at Spirit assures me that it will be taken care of ASAP. Spirit tells me that they will send an email to Lowes. I call Lowes at Washington DC. The store in Washington DC does not even take any phones.

    The next day, all day no news. As if I never purchased a fridge. I paid for all services and after getting my money, Lowes decided to disappear. They decided to forget about it. They got the money, but they don't bother with delivering the fridge. So I need to fix Lowes' issues, since Lowes does not care. Here we go again. Lowes customer service calls. Nothing. They say call Spirit. So I call Spirit again. They now started to claim, "Someone called with your number and canceled the order." The story changed. No one uses my phone except me. And I did not cancel any order. This is a total lie.

    I call Lowes again, I ask to talk with a supervisor. I am being told that I should file a claim in a written format. Then it should take 24 hours for the "Big Lowes' help...". This is not a good option when the tenant is in full-blown anger. I did everything right but apparently I am working with the wrong firm, that does not even care. I call Spirit. Now they know my number and they are willingly do not open it. Just to prove their unwillingness to take calls from my number, I get a new Google Voice number, and then I call Spirit again. When they see a different number they take the call. Now they are saying, "You canceled it." No one canceled any orders. I am asking for a person who knows what he/she is doing. No one cares. They say it's not possible.

    On 7/9/2020 I call Spirit, ask to talk with their manager. They say, '"The manager is gonna call you." But no calls. Then I call Lowes. I want to file a complaint. The first phone number they gave me looks like this: 1 374 327 73782. Something is wrong, this is not a US phone number. I ask the customer service person to check the number and tell me a real number. I get 1 347 7382. And then I call that number to file a complaint, that number does not even work. Lowes has a very sad and bad style.

    In the duration of this terrible experience, I had to call both Lowe's and Spirit a total of 20-25 times. No one wants to help. No one deserves this especially when you are the landlord and obligated to solve your tenant's issues asap. This whole thing destroyed my relationship with my tenant. The fridge is still not delivered at the time I am writing this review.

    Ordered new appliances from Lowe's Home Improvement in North Carolina (fridge, stove, dishwasher). Only the fridge was in stock and the other items back ordered. Made arrangements for delivery of the fridge. On the delivery date we got an automated call advising the item would be delivered between 3:00 and 7:00 PM. When that time passed, I called the store and was advised by personnel the fridge was "on the truck", and it would be delivered no later than 8:30 PM. I inquired about them calling the driver. That's when I learned Lowe's no longer does deliver,y but uses a third party vendor called U.S.T, and store personnel claimed they have no way of contacting them except by emailing the "home office" in another state. The fridge never arrived that day.

    Called the store at 6:10 AM the next day and learn the fridge is back at the store. U.S.T. left the store personnel a note that they called us, but we didn't answer. THIS IS FALSE, WE WERE NEVER CALLED EXCEPT FOR THE AUTOMATED MESSAGE. Made new arrangements, this time U.S.T. left a message at my house that they would be there around 5:00 PM or later. I'm at work (30 minutes away) so I make arrangements to leave before 5. At 1:30 PM my teenager daughter calls and says delivery men are there. I have to talk with them on the phone and "walk them through" where I want it, don't mess up the hardwood floors, etc. The delivery guy says he can hook up the water line for for the ice maker. I have my daughter give him the water line from the old fridge. The delivery guy says, "maybe you should hook it up", I tell him fine, just slide the fridge into place.

    I get home later, to find the fridge in place, however the delivery guys TOOK MY COPPER WATER LINE WITH THEM WHEN THEY LEFT! So now I have to drive to Lowe's and get another line. When talking with the manager on duty I'm told again that the store has no way of contacting delivery drivers, or confirming in any way that deliveries are being made. This is absolutely incomprehensible to me, especially when someone orders very expensive items.

    I purchased LG dryer DLE7200VE at Lowe's on Royal Pine in Colorado Springs. From the beginning, it has been a lemon. The sensor doesn't work and dry times are prolonged. I purchased a 3 year extended waranty. The LG technician came out twice and changed the technology components without improvement. He check the flow and found it to be good. He then told me that that there was nothing else that could be done and that I should have the vent cleaned. I have had the vent cleaned 5 times in the 2 years I have had it (at $140 each time), primarily due to an erroneus sensor reading.

    The screen was blocked only the first time. I had the vent cleaned 3 1/2 months ago and received a d80 error message. I have been unable to get through to the waranty service to schedule service for over two weeks, enduring wait times of up to an hour. The appliance manager attempted to call on my behalf but the waranty department wouldn't allow him to make an appointment for me. How many days and weeks do I have to waste my time on hold trying to get service? I asked to trade in this "lemon" and was told that the machine was "too old." I'm afraid that I will end up buying a new dryer because it will be cheaper than cleaning the vent (which is on the roof) every time I get the error message.

    For all who read this review, do NOT purchase an LG product, do NOT purchase any appliance, do NOT purchase an extended warranty from Lowe's. In fact, do not purchase anything from Lowe's. Not only was the product poor, but the response of Lowe's to the requests for service and the quality of the service is totally unacceptable.

She said, "I think it's in the paint aisle." Asked a person there that sent me to the tool dept. Now this might seem strange but I will swear on a Bible it's TRUE.

    The quarantine has changed how we shop. Lowe's has risen to the occasion by having drive-up pick-up of orders & online shopping orders. The store was always clean, but now when you go in, you smell the clean as staff are busily cleaning carts, keypads, handrails. All surfaces. Clearly marked 6ft distances for the cash stands, sneeze guards for the cashiers, hands free check out. A cashier scans the products from the cart then you offer payment, you really only need to touch what you place in the cart.

    We have no mandatory masking in Columbus Ohio, but they politely & kindly insist all customers wear them. There has been a concerted effort to keep customers and staff safe, while still allowing me to browse the multitude of products if I need to find some home repair or decor item that I am not sure of. They are still there to assist as always. Home Depot had been my favorite in California, but here in Ohio, at this time of deep upheaval, Lowe's has met the challenge, and it is appreciated.

    Lowe's Home Improvement Stores are the best because they have a great selection, great prices and things are easy to find. On top of that, if you need help with anything an associate is close by to help you or has asked if you need anything. From lumber to plants the price and quality is there. When buying an appliance they tell you when it will be in if the one you want isn't in stock. I also like that they give a discount to veterans and they have veteran parking. Some other chains help the veterans in a different forum but, Lowe's helps the common man at the store level and that says a lot about how they do business.

    After considerable online research we ordered a pergola that, according to your web site, could be delivered by 28 June. Your confirmation notices, however, did NOT give an estimated delivery date and when 28 June came and went, I went to your web site to find out what happened. There it showed my order as having been delivered. I then called your customer support line and, after being on hold for nearly an hour, I was told that the item had been shipped through a third party and that it would be delivered after 17 July. I then tried to cancel the order but was told that since it had already shipped, I would have to return it to Lowe's for a refund after it was delivered, something that will be difficult since this is a large item and I do not have a truck to transport it. This is totally unacceptable service in my point of view.

    First of all, your web site was misleading on the delivery date. Secondly, I was NOT given an estimated delivery date on the confirmation notice. Thirdly the wait time to talk to customer service was excessive. And finally, having to return this item to Lowes for a refund is not an option for me since I have no way of returning it without renting a truck. Online buyers beware. I will not be patronizing Lowe's in the future.

    This retailer I overlooked for years because we have 2 competitors closer to our home. However, after ordering on-line and shopping in-store for the past 2 years, we use them almost exclusively for our home supplies and tools. Besides competitive prices and high quality merchandise, I receive a veteran’s discount on-line or in-store, as well as another discount when I use their credit card. The other stores either have no veteran discount or only on in-store purchases.

I requested a supervisor on one call, because the employee was so rude, She said, "There isn't one." and hung up on me. Believe me, I am respectful and calm during every call/email.

    We had purchased carpet from Lowe's Home Improvement. It was installed per them. The carpet came with a lifetime warranty on the installation. A couple of years after it had been been installed the carpeting started to fray in the corners especially around the doors. Then the carpeting start to wrinkle. Now the carpet lifts up off the foam padding.

    I have been working on this issue for some time. When I went to the store I was told by a salesperson in carpeting that I would have to talk a manager. I went to the service desk and they told me the manager was on a lunch break. Ok with I'll come with me. I'll come and try again. I have tried many times, called many, many phones numbers in hopes of getting a hold of someone. I was so frustrated by all my wasted time for a while I just gave up trying to contact someone.

    Now my carpeting looks like a wrinkly old raisin. I once again reached out to Lowe's Home Improvement. To be placed on hold for quite sometime only to be told to call this number. Then call that number to be told to call another number and if that number isn't the right one call this other number. Frustrated once again I have just given up.

    So now that it's been a while I decided to try again. I called Lowes Home Improvement and talked with a salesperson and once again I was told to contact the store manager. Guess what? Once again the manager was unavailable. I once again called and spoke with someone from Lowe's Home Improvement this time I asked the person on the phone to please look up my account. She told me she was unable to locate my account. She then proceeded to tell me I would have to go to the people that installed it. Guess what. The same people that installed it are no longer in business. Frustrated once again I guess I'll try in another 5 years. I am extremely disappointed with Lowe's Home Improvement.

    Lowe's carpet installation experience was horrible. They arrived without a Shop Vac. They sweep the dust once old rug was removed. That just put it in the air to fall on the floor again. I had to vacuum up trash between the baseboard and carpet tacks. They carpeted over the dust. I am allergic to dust. The uninstalled rug looked to have been speared and torn by a forklift. This is the damage the installer did:

    Master bedroom - Wall, Baseboard, Teal cabinet, Headboard, Dresser finish damaged.

    Door dragging across new carpet on one side.

    Seams raised into tiny mountains.

    Stairs - The installers scratched up one stair that was just refinished and there are dents in the top stair in a row from something being hammered on it.

    Carpet damaged by forklift with large holes poked in it in places. They cut around it. Because of this a large piece of leftover carpet was not usable.

    Dust Everywhere. I cleaned for 2 1/2 days and housekeeper cleaned for 5 hours to get house clean. I am 76 years old & allergic to dust. The installers did not have a shop vacuum with them just an upright to do the carpet. I had to vacuum as much as possible as the room was filthy after carpet was torn up. It was very hot because they have to turn the AC off to get the carpet to install properly and I was unable to get up all the dust. They swept which is insufficient to remove dust as most of it goes into the air and falls back. The installers acted put out that I was delaying their job. I was able to get the trash between the seam strips and the wall. Apparently they were carpeting over the trash and did carpet over the dust.

    Landing - Pattern goofed up. Need same carpet without pattern ordered to replace. Entryway - Chipped and gouged paint and baseboard. Living Room - Ceiling gouged at the foot of the stairs. Left carpet cuttings in the driveway cracks I have written the CEO with no response and the person assigned to help us hasn't resolved any of our issues. I held the phone for over half an hour without getting through to her. Yuck awful installation. Awful customer service. All issues completely unresolved at close to a month after installation.

    I went to the Chattanooga TN Gunbarrel Rd. Lowes #0425 and purchased a $2500.00 Samsung Fridge on 5-26-2020 with a promised delivery date of June 9 2020. June 9th came and went with no phone call or notification. After spending 35 minutes calling the store and no one answering I finally got through to the appliance dept. and was told delivery was changed to June 16th 2020 that the fridge was backordered from Samsung. June 16th came and went again with no phone call or notification. I went to the store this time and was told the Fridge still has not arrived from Samsung.

    I took matters into my own hands and got the Samsung Vendor phone number 1-844-415-1151 and gave them my PO#. They told me the fridge was delivered to the Lowe's Appliance Distribution Center #3367 in Smyrna TN on June 11th 2020. I finally got a call from the appliance manager who told me he also called the ADC and yes the fridge is there and will be on the Monday June 22nd appliance truck to the store. Well guess what, it wasn't and after spending 62 minutes on the phone trying to get through to someone, my wife went to the store and was told the same song and dance about how delivery was changed to July 1st with no explanation.

    I'm not the shut up and wait type of guy so once again I took the matter into my own hands. I got the phone number for the Special Order Sales dept. of the Lowe's ADC #3367 (1-615-751-5870) gave the friendly lady my PO# and was told "Yes the fridge is here however store 0425 was a dropped store and this along with several other appliances has to be shipped to the Atlanta ADC before being shipped to the stores". She also had no ETA as to when this will take place. So, there you have it. My Samsung fridge has been sitting in Smyrna TN (1 1/2 hours away from me) since June 11 and is going to be shipped to Atlanta for God knows how long before it gets shipped to my store and finally delivered to me. THIS PLACE IS A FREAKIN CIRCUS. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER APPLIANCE FROM LOWE'S AGAIN!

    I had received email and phone confirmation that a gas grill I had purchased was ready for pick up but was in fact cancelled without my knowledge. On June 14 I had received email and phone confirmation that a gas grill I had purchased was ready for pick-up. I was told to park at the the curb-side, call the number listed and that an employee would bring out my order. Called the curb-side number for 20 minutes but no one answered. After calling for 20 minutes I decided to go inside the store and get my order myself since no one would even pick up the phone for the curb-side pick up.

    While waiting in line, I called customer service to see if they would respond back. The entire time I was in line, I heard the phone ring but no one answered the phone. Five employees were just standing there, loafing on company time. Of the six people at the customer service area, only one was actually doing any work. When it was finally my turn, I told the customer representative that I received email and phone confirmation that my gas grill was assembled and ready for pick-up. I told the gentleman that I told that I had 7 day to pick up my order.

    He looked up my order number and said that it was cancelled. I asked him how my order could be cancelled if I received email and phone confirmation that my gas grill was ready for pick-up. He said that he would have a employee look for it. The guy didn't even care and just said that I have customers to help. The whole time I am waiting at customer service, I observe several more workers just standing there and gossiping about other people. I guess Lowe's pays it employees to loaf while on the job.

    Horrible and unprofessional customer service employee. I had a cart full of merchandise to purchase along with the gas grill that I was planning to take home that day. I got fed up waiting for their lazy employees to look for my grill, thinking to myself how in the world can they not find something as big as a gas grill. I waited for more than 45 minutes to pick up my grill but guess they were to busy gossiping and complaining to actually to work.

    I realised that the employees don't care about customer service seeing as how they were gossiping and complaining the whole time. I left my cart that was filled with my other merchandise and walked out angry and in disbelief. How incompetent must store management be when something as big as a gas grill cannot be found in the store and when only one customer service employee is actually working while the rest gossip and complain. No wonder Lowe's is losing business and is having to close stores.

    I had planned to make several online purchases for myself and other family members at the Lowe's website but when I saw that nobody cared to resolve my problem, I choose to never again purchase anything from Lowe's again. I called the store later that day and asked to speak to the store manager to give them one more chance to keep me as a customer. While speaking with the store manager, she hung up on me mid-sentence. Very rude and disrespectful. I gave Lowe's many opportunities to redeem themselves but to no avail. Too bad because they lost more than $5000 in sales because of their unprofessionalism.

    Since store management and it's employees do not care for their customer, I will take my business and money and go over to Home Depot. By the way, all my Home Depot online store pick up purchases were ready for pick up the following day and my Home Depot online home delivery purchases were shipped out in just two days. Lowes should learn from Home Depot about customer service and professionalism. Home Depot has definitely earned my business. I told about my dismal experience to other family members. They said that they also would not shop at any Lowes anymore. If Lowes customer service does not change for the better, it will definitely go bankrupt. Thanks to Lowes incompetence, I will never shop at Lowes again.

    Very disappointed in Lowe’s online. I ordered a patio set a few weeks ago. As of right now I have two of the four pieces. On Saturday my status for one of the pieces was ready for delivery with a June 15 delivery date. Last night when checking on the status to see if there was a time it read canceled. After further investigation I was told there were no more to purchase. How can you advertise you have an item and tell the customer it’s ready for delivery and cancel it, very poor customer service and to boot no one called to tell me. So either it was sold to someone else or Lowe’s does a poor job of keeping track of inventory. Either one is unacceptable. Now I need to go through the trouble of returning the other items and finding a patio set that is available this time of year since I already threw away my old one. I also find it very cowardly that there is not a review section offered on any of their social media pages. Very dissatisfied customer.

    My sons purchase me a stainless steel 4 door refrigerator for Mother’s Day. Well it was to be delivered in two weeks so I decided to call the day before delivery. It wasn’t in so they gave a very nice substitute. Well here it is two weeks later. I’m having a problem with it cooling. Mind you it is still under manufacturer warranty, plus I purchased an additional 3 year warranty. I’ve called. No one ever picks up in Appliances and I’ve left my name and phone number more times than I care to count, I really thought they had gotten better over the years with all the new technology, but I see it’s a new era with the same old crap with Lowe’s. If not building supplies they will never get another dime of mine.???

    I've bought a chest freezer from Lowes. It was ordered in March but delivered in May (due to their fault). Once it was delivered it's not working. When I called them they said it's not in the 30 day period, because I ordered it in March, the delivery date doesn't matter. Now am left with a lemon!!

    Shopping in the Westland Mi store today on Newberg Road in the middle of the Coronavirus. CDC guidelines are everyone must be wearing a mask. Not true at this location. Yes, majority of people do, however quite a few without. Not an employee checking on customers. At checkout I asked if everyone is supposed to wear a mask and was told by an employee yes its CDC guidelines but we don't follow it or ask customers to wear one. Very unsettling to see so many throughout the store not complying or any employee attempt to see that masks are worn.

    We ordered a gift from Lowe’s online to be delivered to my father, which was damaged in transport. We requested a refund almost 3 weeks ago and ordered a new item directly from the nearest store. We are still waiting for our refund for the damaged item and have been told AGAIN that it is being worked and there’s no way to prioritize our refund even though it was originally entered wrong 2 weeks ago. So they have prioritized it like we just requested the refund on 6/1, instead of 5/17. Additionally, we have called at least 5 times about this order, and have spent a minimum of one hour on each call.

    Shopped dishwashers. Selected, paid. Waiting for delivery info. All done online, comparing with other companies. Finally found one with features I need and price seemed fair. Checkout was accomplished after a few false moves. Only issue is I don't have a timeline for delivery - have to wait for their texted updates, due to "unusually busy sales of appliances". I can't find a plumber until I have a delivery date. Then I may need to wait for that installation appointment and have NO room to store DW, meanwhile. Also: I am out the total price, having already paid. I'd rather pay at delivery or JUST before and continue to earn paltry interest on my hundreds of dollars.

    Horrible return policy. I bought this mower, put it together and it doesn’t start. Went through the troubleshooting and nothing! Called Lowe’s to see if I could return it and they said since I put gas in it, I now had to deal with the manufacturer. How the heck would I know if it works or not without putting gas in it. I haven’t been able to get through the number Lowe’s have me and decided to hire a technician to come over and look at it. He spent 45min trying a variety of things to get it going and nothing! I do not recommend buying anything from Lowe’s without going over the return policy! Now I have to send this thing to an authorized dealer and if the issue is something not covered under warranty, I have to pay $60 just for the visit, plus cost of repairs. Not happy!!

    My husband has a US government Military discount card and registered it with Lowe’s. We went to purchase a refrigerator, dishwasher and stove during Lowe’s Memorial Day sale. The total purchase came to $5,000. The sales associate told us that due to the items being on special for Memorial Day Lowe’s could not give the Military discount of 10%. The associate was able to discount $6.80 off the purchase price. Memorial Day is supposed to honor those that served our country. We were dismayed to say the least. We are senior citizens and downsizing from a house to a co-op. Later we went to a furniture store and purchased considerable merchandise all on Memorial Day special. The Military discount was honored full 10% and my husband was thanked for his service. Shame on you Lowe’s.

    I ordered a brand new washer and dryer set for $1,500 online on May 15, and it was scheduled to be delivered between 8 AM and 8 PM (a whole 12 hour window) yesterday, May 23. Nobody ever arrived. I did not receive a phone call, email, nothing. I call customer service at 4:30, I sat on hold for an hour before actually speaking with someone, and the lady on the phone was very nice and helpful. She tried to reach someone at Lowe's for me since I couldn't, and they told her my order was supposed to have arrived between 12 and 3. After speaking with her for about 20 minutes, the call dropped (sometime around 6), and I never received a call back.

    I was told by an online customer service agent that they cannot call back if a call drops and I have to just call them back.... so what is the point of them asking my phone number in case a call drops?!?! Please tell me.... After that, I tried calling my Lowe's store, no answer. Tried calling customer service, they were now closed because it took so long. Tried calling the delivery service, XPO, they closed too.

    I have been a local customer of Lowe's for longer than I can remember. After all these years, I tried to return an item today and was refused. They stated that the product was past its 90 day return window. I must say I was totally shocked, I have never been refused before. This was an unopened faucet that they are currently selling and they would not take it back and stated it was out of their hands as the computer would not even let them give a store credit. Yes it has been 5 months that I have been setting on this return, but that has not been the number one thing on my mind since January.

    Being a person over 65, and the government keeping everyone on edge, I didn’t think it would be an issue to make the return when things got back to normal. Well... I’m stuck with a faucet. My advice is with Lowes you had better stick by their letter of the law, or as they suggested, sell it on Marketplace and get something back...wow. I would suggest that you purchase from Home Depot as I had the same situation with them and they did the return no problem.

I explained that my order depended on that service, and was told they would take it out to my car. After arriving, I called for more than 20 minutes before I could speak to someone and was told again they will not do curbside pickup. The customer service person was rude, and even stated that they could not perform curbside pickup due to state pandemic restrictions!

    I ordered 3 items for curbside pick up. Before putting in the order, I checked to be sure everything I was going to order was in stock. After waiting for 2 days, for the email telling me to pick up my order, I called the store to find out what the problem is. The store employee told me they were 300 - 400 orders behind, in curbside pick up and it takes days to get the order ready. He found that since they had not pulled my order yet, they sold what stock they had, to someone else and are currently out of stock. He said that the products I wanted would be coming, in a little over a week. He said it is best to come into the store and buy directly.

    So this review is to tell you, from my personal experience, that Lowe's Curb Side service is non-existent. It is used as a "Feel good" PR statement and to fool the public into thinking they are being competitive. I have had no problems with Curb Side orders at Home Depot. I have been buying from both these stores, as a contractor, since their buildings were built. Lowe's is always a let down it seems. That is why I only buy from them when I have to.

    Bought a Franke faucet last year when building a new kitchen and am very disappointed with the product and the company. I sent the company a picture of the faucet as the handle was discolored. Was told by their warranty department (Candice, supervisor, and Cynthia) that they could not do anything because it looked like a chemical was used to clean it. All we ever used to clean it was soap and water. How do they determine this from a picture. All I need was a handle and they insisted they would do nothing. Asked to speak to Don Gamble, President and was told I had to send email. I could not talk to anyone else. If they would not replace a handle what would they do if I had bought their sink or other product they made?

    I WISH I COULD GIVE THEM ZERO REVIEW AS THEY DESERVE... I filed a complaint I had in April with BBB for a standby Generator against Lowe's installation. They're angry and holding it against me just because I told them the truth and had them come take back their Generac Generator standby so now that I started to experience another problem after the installation they're now trying to be mean and unwilling to do what's right. I have a new problem with my Electricity a few outlets shut off and lights in my dining room plus t.v., living room, porch deck lights, front door entrance and inside lights off near front door and the kitchen outlets.

    I called Lowe's first when it first happened to let them know and they sent out their contractor to take a look. He denied it, said it has nothing to do with them, said I have a bad kitchen outlets so I called out a electrician to see if he could find out the problems and he checked all my outlets in the kitchen and saw there was a problem with the Transfer Switch box attached to my Breaker box in the Garage then 2 days later my dining room, living room, back deck, front door outlets and lights had shortages and was off. I hired another electrician. He took them off one by one and test them and it was good so he said is possibly the transfer switch Installation that Lowe's did, maybe they punctured a hole in the electrical wires with a nail and the only way to find out is cutting a hole in the wall in my garage which he did and he showed me a huge nail running through the wires which is what has been triggering the outlets to been off.

    I need for Lowe's to Reimburse me for their contractors' damaged and cost and expenses. I have receipts and photos if needed. When they first install the Generator on April 3rd I started having problems with my kitchen outlets and other outlets. Customer service contractor Ms. Faith ** she then said she will send someone back out to check it, then they sent someone out on April 13th to make sure there was no mistake on their side, the contractor Alex said I must have a damage outlet in my kitchen which I explained to him that's not true, all my outlets was working fine until the installation took place.

    So I then contacted a electrician and he came out and fix that portion of the kitchen outlet on April 28th and he said it was a Generator problem and still then other outlets in the dining area and porch and living room and front door plus outside lights was off and I called another Electrician to come back out to see what is causing all this electrical problems so he did came and saw what the problem was and fix it the other problems he showed me the nail going through the wires from the transfer switch they installed that causes the shortages in my electricity because they drill a nail thru the wires.

    I want to be refunded and compensated from Lowe's due to the unprofessional contractors they hired that damage my outlets and cause shortages in my house by them who came and damage my electrical outlets causing a lot of stress and couldn't enjoy my birthday experiencing this instead of enjoying it, paying out of pocket expenses that I didn't have and emotional damage I had to go through to fix this and they been in denial not wanting to do what is right nor following thoroughly the proper procedure of the installation not to cause this. I still has to get another contractor to sand and plaster the wall and paint it in the garage. They're the Biggest liar and the Worst Customer Support I've ever dealt with. They're All For your MONEY not your SATISFACTION!!! I lost $1,335. Money spent plus DAMAGE FOOD. AND MY GARAGE IS NOT THE SAME.

    I purchased a patio door on sale along with installation in September of 2018. The installer never called so I cancelled the installation, but kept the door (Lowe's kept the door until I found an installer). My mother passed away unexpectedly in december and I told the store that I need to hold installation for a few months and they were fine withholding my door. Went back to try installation with Lowe's again in october 2019 and had to not only pay for another installation measurement, but also my pay again for my patio door.

    I spoke to the manager who said they no longer have record of my door purchase from september 2018, but they still have my door??? The manager said to get my date of purchase or receipt from september 2018 and I did through capital one credit card. The store manager refused to refund and gave my their 1800 number to contact their district manager. The 1800 number was to general customer service. I explained my issue and their representative said their manager will contact me, but the store manager, Craig, should have handled my situation. Never received a call from Lowe's manager and I called both the store and customer service multiple time through the remainder of 2019 through now.

    I spoke to an attorney friend and now have to go through suing Lowe's through the long al magistrate once the pandemic is cleared. Never, ever trust the word of corporate or local store managers. They are both useless. It's awful a large corporation puts a this stress on a working healthcare professional dealing with the pandemic and loss of a loved one... just shows they only care about the sell!!!

    Updated on 08/14/2020: I originally posted back in May & thought with the installation of the missing screen of the deck patio door I’d be done. Not so. The screen kept hanging up when within about 2” of closing. I thought was just a dirty track. I’ve discovered the screen was actually “Catching” on the stationary glass door and that trim is coming off. I’m betting——this wasn’t the actual screen for the door and they had just anything available installed.

    Updated on 5/30/2020: Continuing saga of May 15, 2020. Lowe’s said their department “thought they had in stock”, a door I was told HAD TO BE SPECIAL ORDERED. They located 1 & would have picked up ASAP. They scheduled installation for a week later and on that date, oops, no screen. Was told it be received on following Wednesday (5/27). I’ve called 4 times to speak to a manager & yet to get a call back. Just got a message they be delivering/installing screen door on 6/4/30. Lowe’s had use of MY $ not only for product but for installation for 2.5 months. Needless to say I’ll NEVER use or recommend the store (the contracted installers did a Great Job). They lied every chance I got to speak to them and then refuse to communicate with me.

    Original Review: I have contract & paid in full March 16, 2020 before Lowe’s would order, 2 living room windows and 2 sliding patio doors-1 with internal blinds. I was fine w/ paying ahead. I was fine RESCHEDULING the installation due to pandemic. Lowe’s CALLED me 5/1 to schedule for install. They confirmed 2 days prior to install date. Morning of, I’ve spent 2 hours moving furniture/furnishings inside & out for installers. As installers were picking up my items, Lowe’s discovers 1 patio door isn’t there. They called me @ 7:42 am. Say this door NOT available but they check other stores in State. I’m yelling so they will transfer my call to a manager but drop. I call back & speak w/ manager. He too says not available but they looking for & if I want they refund. No, I don’t want refund of monies they’ve had 2 months. I requested call back for status. It’s day later & received no call. Left me on hold for 20 minutes before offering call back and now, no call back.

    So they don’t verify receiving special orders, they don’t respect customers and yet hold money not only for ordering but also collect at the same time, for paying installers. If I opt for refund, are they going to refund the interest rate they charge on their credit cards? FYI they still advertise the “unavailable” door on their website-just $125 higher than my contract states & I paid for. If unavailable, quit advertising.

    Finally after sticking it out, Lowe's sent another contractor who did an excellent job. He basically took down the whole fence and put it up correctly. The new contractor was amazed at the poor workmanship of the fence. It was all staples and was snaking badly. He showed me that it would not have lasted a year. After he was finished the fence was solid and even. The fence looks great. My advice is if the contractor does not show up beforehand to inspect the yard before starting work, misses appointments or wants to leave early, ask for a new contractor. Also, you should be able to get ahold of your contractor anytime. Look up online how to build a fence and if the materials the contractor is using is subpar, complain about it. After all you are paying for it to last for many years.

    Original Review: May 14, 2020

    My fence delivery of materials were on time and with no problems. The contractor missed 2 appointments to come out. I have had other contractors from Lowe's that were really good. When they came out again they stayed until 3pm and left. 2 days later they came and was working on the fence and I noticed boards leaning and 3-5 inch gaps under the fence. The contractor gave me a hard time and fixed the boards. After they left I noticed the corner was not attached. Then I noticed boards popping off. The contractor used 18 gauge brads instead of nails. These are like staples.

    I called Lowe's (you have to call local store or you will get a huge maze of phone menus) and told them to send out an inspector. To my surprise they don't inspect installations. They are sending the contractor back out. I know where this is going. They contractor will replace a few boards and I will have to nail all the boards on the fence myself. I could have saved a couple of thousand dollars and put the fence up myself.

After a long wait time finally got ahold of a manager who said he knew nothing about my order and would have to call me back. Then when he did call back he said it was never sent out for delivery and he did not know why. He said he would have to send an email to another manager to see if he knew what happened.

    We cannot begin to tell you how infuriated we are with Lowe’s. We can begin in late February, 2020. On February 27, 2020 we purchased Smartcore Ultra flooring to be installed in our kitchen. It was not in stock (maybe 2 weeks to get in). During this time the coronavirus hit so we delayed the delivery until approx April 23 and install May 1. We got a call the morning of the scheduled delivery stating the tile was broken and it would take about 2 more weeks to replace. We called the installers and set up an install date of May 9. Delivery was rescheduled for May 6. May 6 we got ANOTHER call that the same tile was there that was broken, determining later apparently no replacement tile had been ordered. It would be ANOTHER 2 weeks and the installers could not come to May 19.

    We complained to the customer service department who contacted the Lowe’s store. The manager at the store was helpful at that point. She said she would see what she could do and call back. She found enough tile at a Lowe’s located near her home and picked it up, bring in to her store to be delivered along with what was left of the damaged tile and, amazingly, we were able to keep the second install date on May 9. Upon receiving the materials for the project we found that the quarter round was not the same as was on the floor. Picture attached. We instead received extremely poorly painted and damaged quarter round. Picture attached. We will have to repaint ourselves before they install or it will look horrible.

    UPDATE: We have now received a voicemail from the installers saying “Because our flooring was not received, new installation date will be May 19”. What is Lowe’s problem!!!! A bunch of incompetent people. AND, we questioned about the quarter round. We were told- FOR THE TIME-we needed to paint the quarter round. NEWS TO US. Glad we asked or we would have to try to paint quarter round already on the floor. UNBELIEVABLE.

    During this time we also ordered a riding lawn mower from Lowe’s on April 29. They called with a delivery date of May 7. The morning of May 7 we received a call stating they could not deliver that day. We then received an email with a delivery date on May 10 with a delivery time between 7 am and 9 pm. MOTHER'S DAY. We called to get a better time frame and they said we would have to wait until May 25 for delivery. Almost 4 weeks from the purchase date to deliver a mower sitting on their lot. We complained a lot so we were given a date of May 11.

    We are painting the quarter round this evening, a Lowe’s job. We are hoping for a decent installation and possibly getting a mower some time. Almost $3000 spent at Lowe’s and having to fight for what we paid for every inch of the way. We live less than 5 miles from a Home Depot but decided to do business as well as support Lowe’s. Anyone asks about Lowe’s and we will be glad to tell our story. Lesson learned.

    Order took 28 days to arrive... Customer service phone 35-45 minutes to answer... No emails regarding status of order... Status of order only states "pending"... When order finally arrived it was the wrong product entirely... so had to haul huge box back to Lowe's for a refund... Employee offered no solution or concern... Told me to call the same 800 number that takes 45 minutes to get someone to answer... Placing the order was the only pleasant experience...

    I have purchased HUNDREDS of items from Lowe's over the years... This one online experience had so many hiccups and then the customer service in Hot Springs, Arkansas was the worst... I am disheartened... When you return something and you are upset you at least expect them to apologize for the situation... That did not happen and there was not even an offer to see if they had the item in the store... They actually do but they lost that sale by not even offering to exchange the item... This employee was just there to put in HER scheduled work and leave... Poor attitude for a customer service position... Shame on you Lowe's.

    This is really hard for me to do as I used to love Lowe's. Now they are like every store that cares more about itself than the customer. When you call you got a BS message about how important your patronage to them. Last Monday I bought 10 pieces of lumber. I paid $75 dollars to have it delivered on top of the price for the lumber. I was informed that half of the ordered was to be delivered and I had to come and pick up the rest of the order. When I called I couldn't get through to a live voice and the system hung up on me. Finally I received a call from a delivery company XPODELIVE. They were making the delivery for Friday. Friday morning the truck broke down, afternoon it was on course for delivery that same day. Never arrived.

    On Saturday I received another email saying my lumber arrived. When I called the store Sunday morning I was told it was shipped from Oaks, PA to Plymouth Meeting, PA. On Monday at 730am I called the store. A manager told me my lumber would arrive today. I live in East Norriton and the lumber was delivered to a North Wales location even after the store said it corrected everything with the driver. At 1243 pm I received a call from a driver who didn't understand what I was saying and took the lumber back to the store. While the store credited for delivery my lumber is still not here. This isn't service. It’s a disgrace. As long as XPODELIVE is the delivery system I will go back to Home Depot. Do not ask for delivery or you too will have heartbreak.

    I approached the store on Harmony road and was intercepted at the door and told I would not be able to enter the store. I was further told that according to law, I had to wear a mask. I have not heard of this law (and I'm pretty sure it doesn't exist). While many people believe wearing a mask reduces risk of transmission, this is contrary to the (admittedly limited) statistical evidence. In any case, the person that stopped me refused my entry to the store for reasons that continue to be a mystery. Fine. If Lowe's doesn't want me as a customer, then I am happy to take my business to Home Depot. Note that I have spent thousands of dollars at this store during 2020.

    Wow! I can't believe what just happened. When checking out I had a choice between the cashier wearing her mask down around her neck (which we all know is far more effective, sarcasm) and the cashier who didn't have a mask at all. Neither had gloves on. The cashier without the mask came over and from 4 ft away told me to come over to her register. I didn't want to but my goal was to get out of there as fast as possible at that point.

    Of course I pointed out my lack of viable options to the maskless disease spreader and she starts an argument with me about it. While flapping her gums at light speed spewing out venom towards me she moves around to my side of the protective glass and steps 3 ft from me to ring the up the items. This rendering social distance and the protective glass ineffective in move on her part. TOTAL IDIOT MOVE. Unless she was doing this knowingly on her part which would be recklessly endangering another person's life. So this is what you are in for at Lowe's in Avon Ohio.

    I'm an 83 year old, small, Japanese American female. Bought only 4 mulch bags, and a bag of lime. After check out, The cashier told me loudly they can't help me put the lime in my trunk (SUV), it's the CDC rule so, "Go find a customer to help you." When I started to ask politely if someone can lift one side so I could.... she yelled loudly, "No, we can't" then some other things I was too upset to reply to. A nice older man saw my predicament by my car trunk, and helped me outside. My trunk was clean, dry and empty. The nursery I went to in the a.m., laid down large plastic bags and put the soil, mushroom compost, etc. I purchased. The Lowe's young man who loaded the mulch put the smelly, wet bags with holes in it in my trunk so now I have the trunk open to dry so I can clean it with a carpet shampoo.

    I have encountered enough rude people at stores, but this cashier was the worst. Why is it okay to yell at a customer as if she is doing something wrong? Why didn't she tell me before she rang up the lime, no one can help me put it in my trunk? Just a, "I'm sorry but due to the CDC rule, we can't help you put the lime in your trunk?" nicely, not in a loud voice as if she's enjoying scolding customers. Actually, this was the 2nd time she treated me with disrespect. I'm sure this is not how she treats all customers but the 2nd time I complained in my life. Host No. **. All you have to do is have someone observe how she treats customers like me, someone who isn't being argumentative and quiet.

    I've had good in-store shopping experiences with Lowe's over the last several years; used their products and equipment to remodel a kitchen and a bathroom. I have some outdoors projects underway, now, and turned to Lowe's to provide the materials. I ordered everything online a couple of weeks ago, but realized not everything was marked for delivery. Called CustomerCare and they promptly fixed the issue, changing everything to delivery. THEY told me it would all be delivered on April 29th. I took vacation time to get ready for the shipment and to be able to work on the project; also had a couple of helpers waiting with me to accept the shipment.

    I had an 8am to 8pm delivery window so I was stuck at home ALL DAY waiting for the delivery, but no one ever showed up and no one ever called. Next morning I called the local Lowe's store from which the order was to be fulfilled, they tell me their records indicate shipment is not to occur until sometime in May, and that CustomerCare should not have given a firm date without checking with local store. The person at the local store was trying to arrange delivery sometime next week, but said he could not direct delivery crew to help put materials in my garage. So, I would have to take another vacation, hire two more helpers, again, to sit around for an unreasonably long 12 hour delivery window, still with no guarantee that the delivery would actually occur. Lowe's made no offer of a discount or any other accommodation for the major inconvenience they caused so I just cancelled the order. Not going to reward gross incompetence with my dollars.

We ended up with 1.75 boxes too much. We though were 3 boxes short of flat stone.

    We went to our Valley Lowe’s to return the 1 unopened and perfect condition box and use the credit to buy the 3 flat stone boxes we needed to finish.

    Tried their curbside pickup. I use it for groceries and it works very well. But not for Lowe's. Their website has always been hard to find what you want, and I have special ordered large appliances from them and after the order was lost several times I called Home Depot. But since Lowe's is 5 minutes away and Home Depot is an hour away I decided to try the pickup. Placed the order and waited. They send an email instead of texting you when your order is ready. Since I was very busy painting my kitchen, I didn't think to check emails. Finally took a break and saw the email. It was ready very quickly. Drove over and looked for the pick up area which was 4 spaces right in front of the doors. Very convenient for anybody who wanted to park close in. Since those spots were full, I parked a few spaces down and walked down to dial the phone number. The phone rang and rang. Never got the opportunity to dial the extension they said to dial.

    After sitting there for 10 minutes and noticing that there was no one coming out with orders, people were coming out and leaving from those spaces reserved for pickup. Finally went into the store, which I was trying to avoid because nobody at Lowe's is wearing masks or keeping distance. Customers or employees. Asked 7 employees and nobody knew anything about pickup. And nobody knew if there was a manager.

    The store was pure chaos with employees running all over and nobody going anything. I went to 4 different departments and nobody knew anything and didn't even stop long enough to let me asked them a question. I finally went back to customer service where I figured my order was and started looking for my stuff. A guy came over and I explained to that I had been trying to get my pickup order for almost an hour with my 95 yo father waiting in the truck and could not get any help and was told there was no manager on duty. Turns out he was the manager. He was very nice and asked me to go wait in my truck and he brought out my order. Needless to say I will not only never use pickup at Lowe's but because their employees disregard any kind of protection I will always drive the hour to Home Depot from now on.

I was told that they tried to pick up the dishwasher at 10am but was told it wasn't available. NOBODY CALLED ME. I had an installation scheduled that afternoon so of course had to cancel it. I then waited on hold for over 1/2 hour for customer service (which to find out what was going on). When someone finally answered, I explained the situation and was put on hold for another 29 minutes when the call disconnected. Of course the customer service rep didn't call back.

I'm not saying he was, but he certainly sounded like it. When I prompted him for an apology he said "sorry." I asked when the dishwasher would be delivered. He said "um, Friday?"

They do not give delivery estimates on most orders and backordered items hold up the order, but they never email to let you know this. Getting in touch with them is also far more difficult than other stores like HD, Target, Amazon, you name it. They also do not have chat or email based customer service portal that I could find on the website, forcing everyone to call in, and thus bogging down their system. I would recommend ordering from elsewhere. I still shop at the physical location because it saves me a 20 minute drive to HD, but I will not be ordering from Lowe's anymore online.

    Oklahoma City, OK 4/8/2020 north store on memorial. This is the first negative review I have written in my entire life. I am a Lowe’s loyal customer. I have spent roughly 100,000 there in the past 2 years. I understand there are bigger customers out there than I. But I am 30 years old and was planning an entire life of remodeling/building and liked Lowe’s the best. I’ve never had a real problem with them. Until today. I will never step into a Lowe’s store again in my life.

    I ordered a particular type of Vinyl flooring. The Procore stuff that is also water proof. I bought $4,000 roughly of this flooring. I pulled my truck up to the contractor pick up because I needed right away, so I didn’t have them deliver it. When the Lowe’s personnel loaded the materials they mixed up some other very similar flooring with what I had ordered (I guess I should have opened every box and looked at all 50 boxes). This other type of flooring that was different was barely different, just had a slightly different grain and slightly different shine. Basically this wasn’t easy to identify hence why it wasn’t noticed until the floor was installed, which I paid for obviously. Now we have to put a cover on the floor to keep the flooring from getting damaged while we continue some other construction.

    Fast forward to today “Wednesday” when we take the ram board off the floor because we are getting ready to list the home Friday, and now we notice the problem. I have mismatching floors randomly littered throughout the home, which you can’t really see with anything but natural light and standing across the room. If you are right on top of it and under regular canned lighting you can’t really notice it. I can see how the people loading the materials made the mistake, and I was very understanding when I went up to the store in person to speak with someone. I spoke with a friend of mine in the pro services department, and he told me I needed to speak directly with the manager in the flooring department. I said that was okay, so after some time I get a phone call all in the same day, I am very hopeful at this point..

    We talk, I explain everything and he seems to understand. I have bought and paid for the flooring and the labor of this installation, that now I need to tear up “carefully” to RE-use, and install again, not including the trim that was installed that needs to be removed and put back on as well. The problem is with this toe and hook type assembly for these floors, we can’t just tear out the mismatching pieces and replace with the matching/correct floor without taking it all out. ALL of the flooring has to come up in order to make these changes.

    Now again, please understand I can see how the mistake was made. Mistakes happen is the kind of person I generally am.. But I knew they could help me out in this situation. I know Lowe’s has an installation team, and all I wanted was for them to get the correct flooring, bring their installation team out, and help me out with this mistake that, although understandable, was made BY THEM. I got a hard “No we can’t do that”, and he was “really sorry.” At this point I got a little frustrated, I’m not a person ever looking to ask for something like this, but I feel like this was something I shouldn’t have to pay all the additional labor (and extra material) to fix. He told me they could do a “partial refund on the product purchased initially”. Not helping me at all with labor costs, which at this point is 3x what is normal due to their mistake.

    I got annoyed, I told him he probably didn’t care but I am very loyal to them and this would probably lose me as a customer. It was so blatantly obvious he didn’t care about that at all and that’s when it turned to a very disingenuous “sorry”. Keep in mind IT'S NOT LIKE I ASKED FOR A CHECK. I simply wanted them to supply me the resources and materials to fix this. I understood it was a mistake. I wouldn’t have held it against them in the future. I’m not that kind of person at all.

    Multi-billion dollar company and I’m sure they can afford to do fix this much more than I can. But I’ve never in my life felt more unappreciated for the business I’ve given them. It makes me so mad. They didn’t care to do anything but give me a “partial refund”, to which interestingly enough I would have had to GO RIGHT BACK INSIDE LOWE'S AND SPEND in order to purchase the correct materials that I THOUGHT I PURCHASED THE FIRST TIME. To say I’m disappointed is an understatement. I talked to a friend who had something similar happen with “a different company”, and they came right out and fixed it. I’ll be canceling my Lowe’s card and turning over all my purchases I’ll make over the next 30 years somewhere else.

    If you ever looking for brand new quality appliance, forget Lowe’s, unless you don’t mind to be victimized and mistreated. I purchase new floor model Whirlpool fridge from Fairfield Lowe’s for my brand new home, to match set of newly installed stainless Whirlpool appliances. Within few days of delayed delivery and installation, fridge stop working. Contact Whirlpool warranty and in few days local service tech show up just to tell me that he need a new part and will take another week to order and replace.

    Within few days of this repair the fridge die again and the same service tech show up within a week to inform me that my allegedly new appliance is actually old used lemon that been repaired before and in addition he need to replace death compressor, this fridge used be owned by someone else who return his used appliances back to store after numerous warranty repairs year ago. This didn’t stop Lowe’s from placing the same used fridge back on Lowe’s sell floor as discontinue floor model and resell it again without any disclosure of appliance extensive prior repair history.

    Needless to say that no one in this store is willing to step up and fix their own mess and fraud, include department head and store manager. I don’t even mention that somehow built-in ice maker that was included as part of the fridge, mysteriously disappear between sale floor and actual delivery. So stay far away from this store and this brand unless you don’t mind to be cheated and mistreated.

    I realize Lowe's subs out this work. I had the man come out, measure and give me a quote in March. Materials delivered in April and soon after took old fence down and started on new. The boss decided he couldn't put the gates up like I had contracted, which with the way my house and property is situated, I wanted the gate big enough to get a truck thru on the driveway side. He said he couldn't, he would put it on other side of my house, which is where my heat pump is and would have to drive thru front yard between house and trees - which seemed ridiculous to me and I told them no. They stopped working and several months later finished.

    Many frustrating phone calls to Lowes and I did get about $500 back due to all the problems. For the price I paid, they did not do such a good job. Side fence is wavy rather than straight. I marked where my Fios line was with spray paint as well as left notes. The first time they put the gate up they cut thru it. Then when they redid the gate and I remarked the lines, they cut right thru it again. I do not recommend.

    I never leave negative reviews, however, I am tired of Lowe's bait & switch practices (which is illegal). They advertise an item on their website on sale and when the item is added to your cart it becomes full price. This is the second time it's happened. Called Lowe's Customer Service & the customer service agent tried to rectify the situation by offering a discount after I had emailed a screenshot of the sale item online. When she called her supervisor, Richard ** in Indiana, for approval he denied it stating a screenshot isn't sufficient.

    I spoke to another supervisor, Dom (ID # **) who claimed the situation did not qualify for any discount and the price in the cart was correct, not the advertised sale price. He was also going to speak with the customer service rep for offering a discount of which she did not have the authority to do so. I told Dom the rep was trying to find a solution and not to chastise her. After I got off the phone, the item was still advertised on sale. Am going to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. Will NEVER purchase anything at Lowes and will keep supporting Home Depot!

    Lowe's “Customer services”. 3/23/20. I purchase a Samsung washer from Lowes and a five year protection plan. I contacted Lowes on Feb 2, 2020 to let them know that my washer stopped working. Lowe's sent out a tech to fix the machine. The tech has been out at least four times and has replaced 5 parts and the washers still doesn't work. Supposedly, they need to order an additional part to fix the machine. Lowe's has been telling me since March 10th that the part is in, However, every time I call Lowe's they said the part is in or is coming in tomorrow.

    The last time I spoke to customer service representative on March 23, 2020 and I was told that I needed wait for the part. When I asked why is it taking so long for part; I was told most likely it's due to the coronavirus. The sad part is that My husband and myself have been going to a laundromat since Feb 2 and that was okay; until this very serious pandemic of the coronavirus. I wish Lowe's would do the right thing and replace the washer instead of playing games.

    I bought a wash machine from the store almost a month ago. Because of their delivery service I was held off for delivery till today 3/23/20. I got 3 phone calls this past week reminding me of my delivery. It was To be delivered, set up, plus haul out the old washer. Yesterday 3/22/20 I get a phone call from our store telling us that Lowe’s new policy because of Covid19 can drop my washer at my house but their employees will no longer go into anyone’s house. So, now Lowe’s will bring my washer, drop off in my yard and drive away. I understand the Covid19 stuff, I DONT understand we can still go to a Lowe’s store, talk to a store associate face to face but their employees won’t come into a home.. Plus.... Lowe’s never offered any alternative plan, like maybe offer a dolly to their customers so maybe I can get my washer into my home?

    The reason we bought the washer was because Lowe’s offered, delivery, setup, and removal of old appliance. I think Lowe’s could of did a bit more during this time to provide more help. I’m now stuck with a new washer being delivered, placed in my back yard and finding my own way of taking out old washer up 15 steps, bringing in new washer and down 15 steps, setting it up and hoping it works.

My delivery was scheduled 3 different times and cancelled by them 3 different times. It has been 3 months and I requested a month ago that my dishwasher be cancelled and my money refunded to me I am still waiting on that refund. They refuse to give it back cash even though I have the receipt but because I use the Lowe’s card initially they want to refund it back to the card and I have to call customer service to get them to mail me a check.

    I have been fighting with them over getting my money back for a month now. It is so ridiculous. No dishwasher and they still have my money. I will never go to Lowes again for anything.

    Never buy kitchen cabinets from Lowe’s! We have had the worst experience. Zero customer service. We bought over $8000 of KraftMaid kitchen cabinets from the Lowe’s in Savannah, GA. When the cabinets were delivered two of them were missing from the delivery. Of course, the delivery guys said, “Not my problem, that’s what was on the truck.” After literally hours on the phone with the delivery company and Lowe’s, the missing cabinets could not be located. We were told that KraftMaid would have to remake the cabinets.

    We thought since it was not our fault that the cabinets were missing and knowing that we had a contractor and a timeline to keep, that either KraftMaid or Lowe’s would step up to see that our missing cabinets were expedited. Nope! Calls to the local and national Lowe’s customer service either are not returned or when we do speak to someone, they have nothing to add and just say, “It’s in process.” After many weeks of delay the replacements finally arrived. We had to pick them up at the store and the only minimal compensation was a refund of the delivery fee. I am cutting up my Lowe’s credit card and I’ll never shop there again.

    January 2020 the calls began!!! In January Lowe's sent out a promotional offer on their kitchen appliances for 15% savings. The marketing advertisement showed a WASHER & DRYER front and centre, and other appliances in the background. At that time they were also offering an additional 25% savings for buying Energy Savings appliances. That was the decision it was time to retire my tired appliances. I proceeded to go on-line to check out where my appliances were available.

    This is where the countless hours of my time began because I was told by different locations different stories - end result WASHERS & DRYERS were not part of the ad as it was only offering it to kitchen appliances. You tell me, do you know if anyone that has a WASHER & DRYER in their kitchen....well I do - in addition to marketing adding you can google on-line displaying them as an option.

I have experienced very poor support from Lowe's throughout this, and welcome further conversation on a call. I have been a huge supporter of Lowe's and am quite disappointed for such a LARGE CHAIN not to stand behind their error. In addition the disconnect between what online support can do vs what the store level can do or say, and again no consistency on how to resolve this issue. ** (CASE NUMBER) NEVER CLOSED - asked then to speak to a manager which ended in a few hours later as follows:

    On Friday, January 17, 2020 I received a call from an agent vs a Manager from Head Office as I originally requested. Can someone explain why it is so difficult to have someone from Head Office call, are they too afraid to admit their mistake? I again spend my time waiting once again on the call to speak further to the Case Worker’s Manager. At that time she informed me that this was a SERIOUS MATTER and Head Office has called on it. She provided me details that Head Office was notified that the add was clearly wrong as the WASHER & DRYER was not excluded from the promotion.

    AGAIN MY DISAPPOINTMENT, she informed me Head Office would reach out to me in 2 DAYS. Recognizing the day I was called was Friday, so I gave the benefit of the doubt that the a call would be made by at least Tuesday, January 21, 2020 BUT NOW OVER A WEEK LATER AND STILL NO CALL. ** (CASE NUMBER) - NEVER CLOSED. 18 days have now gone by since an attempt call was made with Lowe's. I am now losing confidence in what Manager, a person of authority, has told me.

    I am a homeowner. Prior to attending the store I took measurements and did some research online. Based on my findings I went to Lowe’s located in Norwalk. Although I had called the store to establish the hours of the designers’ availability, around 3:45 on Monday there wasn’t anyone in the design center to assist in providing a quote. I commuted to the Lowe’s in Danbury as I was convinced their competitor (Home Depot) would not have good customer service. By the time I reached the Danbury location both designers were busy with other customers. I waited until one of the designers was available.

    I was dressed clean and neatly but plainly. I surmised by the scowl on the elderly designer employee’s face that he was agitated. Yet, I gave him a cheerful greeting. Then I retrieved a scrap paper with measurements on it from my pocket. The employee responded, “I need REAL figures”. In a mild but amused voice I stated, “these are real figures”. He proceeded to his desk and said with a huff that he would need to draw something out to “make sense” of my measurements. He took a computer paper out & I then retrieved my phone and mentioned, “I also have a photo”. He began to draw onto the sheet. Then I asked if I could add the measurements to his rough draft. With a look of disgust he passed the crude drawing to me.

    Referring to my measurements I proceeded to write the numbers onto his drawing. All the while I was cataloging the numbers the employee continued his tirade, “those aren’t even real figures; you’re just guessing.” At this I said, Actually, no, my contractor helped me establish these numbers.” He continued, “I mean, you’re just wasting your time & mine; We’re talking thousands of dollars and you just have a bunch of chicken scratch on that paper.” This is when it occurred to me that he was being verbally abusive and I didn’t have to subject myself any longer to his wretched disposition. I told him he was rude & that I was no longer going to sit and allow him to berate me! Despite not wanting to go to Home Depot I went to the design center and they could not have been more helpful or lovely. Rose CEO would not be happy to know they missed out on thousands of dollars because of their employee.

When you can the delivery company you sit on hold forever. When you call the store they can do nothing because it's an outside company that handles the delivery.

    Finally on the day if delivery we received yet another call at 9am saying they would be there in an hour! We were buying the washer dryer for our new home which was more than an hour away! The driver said the delivery times were not set until the day of delivery, which made no sense since we had already been called 3 times prior. A very disorganized service.

    This is just a brief synopsis of the two page letter that I sent to Lowes Customer Care. I usually purchase my appliances through an independent dealer in Dubuque, but when my washer broke, I looked into Lowes for a new one. I purchased my new washer and gas dryer December 18, 2019. The computer went down halfway through the purchase and they had to start over. After I left the store, I received a phone call that the dryer was on backorder for 6 weeks. I decided to wait the 6 weeks. The units were suppose to be delivered and set up on January 28. On the 27, I called Lowes because no one had called to let me know if the dryer had come.

    To make a VERY LONG story short, the dryer never came in, after insisting I was cancelling the order, they found one in Ohio and were shipping it that week. After a week, I had to call again to check on the status. Yes, it was in. The units were delivered (after 7 weeks from purchasing) that week. WRONG color and installers that complained the entire time. After complaining to Lowes, I was told that the Dubuque store needed to deal with everything. The only response by management was "unintentional mistake and learning experience for our staff". I will never purchase any appliance from Lowes again and will advise anyone who asks my opinion of their service to do the same.

    BEWARE OF CONTRACTING IN THE FLOORING DEPARTMENT AT LOWE'S! I want to share a negative experience in hopes you the customer can avoid the frustration and anxiety caused by one of Lowe’s contractors in the flooring department. First, if you are purchasing wood or laminate floors BEWARE! There may be hidden costs they do not initially share with you.

    Lowe’s contracts through a big company called SERVPRO. Trust me, you cannot trust this company. They find ways to get more money out of you after they rip your carpets off the floors. Two Hispanic guys were sent to install our floors. One could speak no English. The other interpreted. They both talked to one another in Spanish, so I never knew all that was being said. They seemed to be nice people but this communication barrier was frustrating at times. Once the carpet was removed they started showing me small unlevel places on all my floors. They instructed me the only remedy was to pour cement over them and level the spot. They also said they would have to lay a new plywood subfloor over the top for the guarantee to be in effect. The cost 1000 to 1500.00! We had not planned this in our budget because Lowe’s never disclosed this possibility to us.

    I have never heard of this before. I imagined they have a pretty good racket going making some big bucks on the side by revealing this problem. We were devastated. We called Servpro, then Called our local Lowe’s. The manager at Lowe’s was very upset with SERVPRO. Lowe’s did refund all our money except materials and we found a couple of local guys to do the labor. AGAIN, be extremely careful using SERVPRO. If Lowe’s had not refunded our money I would be taking SERVPRO to court. In my opinion I think something ILLEGAL is going on with SERVPRO. Hope this helps someone avoid the pain and anguish we experienced.

    This is my personal and unique opinion of Lowe’s Home Centers, LLC 350 Diedrich Boulevard Ashland, KY 41101 also known as Store Number 1123. This opinion was formed based on my recent personal experience with Lowe’s. On November 16, 2019, I purchased an LG WHT WT7300CW washer, MED663HW dryer and XHPC155XW dryer stand from Lowe’s. When the salesperson rang up the sale, the total was $400 more than the advertised price. We had shopped the features and benefits of similar units and made our final selection based on the value of the advertised price displayed on the Lowe’s price card for each item. The Lowe’s salesperson said not to worry, and that the price would be adjusted as promised using a mail-in rebate which would give us $400 in Visa Prepaid Cards. On November 18, 2019, we mailed our Lowe’s receipt and rebate forms as instructed and patiently waited the 8 weeks of processing time.

    By mid-January 2020, the promised $400 in Visa Prepaid Cards had not arrived. In an attempt to resolve the situation, we visited the store twice. Lowe’s customer service couldn’t find any registration of our rebate. Eventually we found a customer service staffer that directed us to contact the Lowe’s Rebate Center directly at (877) 204-1223. The Lowe’s Rebate Center informed us that there wasn’t a valid rebate offer for the items we purchased and that we would not be receiving the $400 in Visa Prepaid Cards. On 2.14.2020 The new Lowe’s Store Manager ** told me that the former store manager and ½ of his staff in Appliances were terminated for similar complaints, but there wasn’t anything she could do because it happened before she was assigned to that store.

    In my opinion, Lowe's lied to me to sell appliances at a price $400 higher than I was willing to pay. Knowing that Lowe’s staff had used this ploy to sell appliances is simply appalling. In my opinion, knowing that Lowe’s terminated the store manager and key employees for doing this to other customers is shocking, but honorable. However, in my opinion, knowing that Lowe’s won’t make it right with their customers makes them complicit. Lowe’s is no longer the friendly do-right retailer that Lucius Lowe founded. It is my opinion that their actions are unconscionable and possibly illegal. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! And by giving my truthful and honest opinion on this consumer complaint site, I hope to help Lowe’s improve its honesty, transparency, integrity and services in the future of dealing with me and its other customers.

    Lowe's has always been my choice because of better quality construction material and I liken them to Scotties that never had big stores & less inventory but they also had much better quality than the guys with the orange sign.

    I purchased a refrigerator from the local store at 2900 Martins Dr West Carrollton, OH 45449 on 2/8/2020 to be delivered tomorrow (2/18/2020). I called today to confirm that delivery and found that:

    1) they had no order under my phone number; and,

    2) they did not have a refrigerator to deliver.

    Of course, they have already processed the charge on my credit card. I spoke to a manager who told me it would be about two months to get what I purchased. Alternately, they could provide me an “upgrade” to a brand/model I have already ruled out while initially shopping. I chose a full refund of what I paid. I then spoke to the store manager who apologized for the problem but could do nothing else. How can you sell what you cannot deliver? I took my business elsewhere.

    October 2019 I purchased Allen & Roth kitchen laminate flooring from Lowes. It was installed November 2019. In December the floor began swelling, buckling and coming up. There were no spills on the floor that were not cleaned up immediately. If this flooring is not suitable for a kitchen they should not have sold it to us. The installer measured our kitchen before the purchase, they knew it was being installed in a kitchen. We now have to purchase a new floor after only a couple of months. Lowes will not help us in any way.

I had to go to the store to talk to him for nothing. They were not willing to do anything for me.

    The counters were screwed up took 4 times to get right. The sink cabinet was ruined from the installers. I had to fix my self.

Anyway 4 months later it’s finally done no thanks to Lowe’s and I’m talking about the Lowe’s in Clermont Florida Sandhill Road. The company itself is also useless as they also do nothing.

    I had Lowe's in Carol Stream IL. install carpet in the lower level of my home. During the installation the installers pried up on the frame of one of my interior doors to try to fit the carpet under the frame. They moved the frame to the point that it would no longer latch and you could see a space between the door and frame. They sent someone out to look at it and after pushing, pulling and prying they determined the door was not installed properly. This door has been in place and working properly for 20 years but it decided not to work after their installation. Do not let them in your home to do installations, they will not take responsibility for their errors.

    We are extremely dissatisfied with this washer, and even more dissatisfied with our experience attempting to use our 5 year warranty to resolve the issues we've had with it since purchase. On all types of cycles and water temp, and with different types of detergent (using minimal amount), our clothes come out of the washer covered in spots. Running an extra rinse cycle does not help, nor does repeating the entire wash cycle. After being through 1-2 cycles in this washer, I still have to hand wash clothing items in the sink, tub or with a spray bottle to get all the spots out.

    Through our extended warranty, a technician came out to our home to look at the machine (1/24/2020). Immediately upon seeing the machine/model and how our clothing looks after a cycle, the technician said this is a common issue with the "system" for this specific model, that he'd put in the repair order right away & someone would be out to make the repair in the next week or two.

    We were very surprised to get a phone call from Lowes Service Advantage (1/28/2020) saying that the repair was "deemed uneconomical for repair" and that we'd be getting a Lowes merchandise card in the mail for the value of the machine. So essentially, we can use the merchandise card towards another machine and have to purchase another extended warranty plan on it...when we could have had our machine fixed & have it still covered under our plan that has 3 more years left on it.

    We would rather have our machine repaired & have a functioning machine, rather than having to buy another machine (and another warranty) and run the risk of having the same issue. We will not be continuing to buy machines & warranties, only to have the warranty do us nothing but get our money back for issues that are resolvable, but have been considered “uneconomical.” It seems economical for Lowes Service Advantage to not complete repairs, give customers a merchandise card to buy another machine & need to re-purchase another warranty. This is not economical for the customer, and we feel taken advantage of.

    In the protection plan brochure that lists terms & conditions, under the section titled "What if We can't fix it?" it reads: "If We, in Our or its sole discretion, determine that your product is not repairable, we, in our or its sole discretion, will either: (1) provide a new rebuilt, or refurbished product of equal or similar features and functionality, or (2) issue a payment up to the retail cost of the product, plus applicable sales tax." The paragraph continues. There is no part in this brochure that details an appliance being considered repairable but “uneconomical”.

    On 2/7/2020 we went into the store to speak with staff & a manager about the issue, and voice our complaints regarding the “resolution.” We were told that we need to contact Lowes Service Advantage directly, and that nothing could be done in the store. Therefore, we contacted Lowes Service Advantage, who said that once a repair has been deemed “uneconomical” and a merchandise card has been created, there is no going back and nothing they can do. This is NOT what I would call customer service. Lowes, whether in-store or Service Advantage team, could fix this issue, or we would like our money back to take our business elsewhere.

    I thought I would post my review here (as well as all over the internet) about my experience with a door install with Lowe's. I ordered and paid for a door and storm door. The install was hideous as Trevor at the store and not one but 2 (two) installers they call out to look at agreed. The last installer called in measurements for a new door and indeed verified it had to be replaced. Not sure why the first installer's notes were not good enough but the 2 installers agreeing would do the trick, right? Well I called in 2 weeks later (knowing it would take at least 3 wks for the new door to come in) asking for an update.

    There was NO notes to be found ANYWHERE that my door needed to be replaced. It was like they were either ignoring these installers or just not going to replace it. They were trying to get a third (#3) installer out to take a look at the door to see if it needed replaced. I asked why they didnt believe the first 2... Nothing in their records of it. I started to record conversations and keeping track of all who I talked to and mentioned I was going to have to get a lawyer involved and VOILA! I spoke with Lana who said she found the notes and measurements of my new door (just like magic) and that my case has been escalated to URGENT and that the door will be ordered. WoW!

    They somehow found the notes and measurements of my door right after I mentioned a lawyer. I spoke to about 5 people who said there was nothing they could do but have a third installer out to check, I then asked... "well what is going to happen when you lose their notes and measurement?"... Paul at the store told me the communication is known to be poor. It's always been this way and there is nothing he can do to help me... Anyways, Lana "found" them. I will keep you updated on if it actually ever does get installed. I am giving them a month on this since it will take at least 3 weeks to get my new door in.

    This has been ongoing since October. I purchased $14,000 in vinyl flooring. I chose to give my business to Lowe’s for a large amount of money. 2 things regarding this. 1.) they charged me 200.00 for the contractor to deliver and drop off the material 2-3 days ahead of time to acclimate to the house. I have photo evidence they showed up with material on the date of install and installed it straight from the trailer. I went to Lowe’s in Bakersfield, CA Rosedale Hwy., waited an 1 1/2hours at customer service and finally a flooring person came up. I asked for my money back because I paid 200.00 for them to deliver and acclimate and then did not do that. He wrote my name and number down and said a manager would call means I never got a call.

    After waiting for 1 1/2 hours just to get my number and written down I was no way going to do that again. They charged me for a service I never received and wouldn’t refund me. 2.) there was a 200.00 rebate Lowe’s gift card mailed to me I earned with my $14,000 flooring purchase. I decided to use it at Lowe’s in December online. I found nice scooters for my kids and nephews for Christmas. I bought 4 of them. They never got delivered. I finally called customer service and they said they canceled my order because the online price was incorrect. That shouldn’t be legal. I bought them for the price it stayed and paid for them and you canceled and never delivered them. I asked if I would get my money back, customer service said yes because they never charged to Lowe’s rebate gift card.

    I checked the card balance and it was 0.00. So now I’m out 200.00 and no product. I called back late December and they said there was a mistake and they would mail me a new gift card of my canceled scooters and I would get it in 10 business days. 10 days passed and nothing. I did chat support next time, I told them I never got my scooters. They canceled my order and kept my money and never mailed a new refund card. They stated the system was having it issues and they would get it fixed and Neil my card and I would get it in 10 days. It’s now the end of January.

    I never got my 200.00 back from the flooring and being charged for acclimating to my house which never happened. They installed off their trainer the day of, I never got the product I purchased with my rebate card and they charged me, cancelled the order and kept the money, they never gave me my money back from the canceled order. Now I’m out 400.00. Worst service I have ever had, they are thieves to me!

    Lowe's sells defective products (Husqvarna riding mower and Husqvarna 450 rancher chain saws) then refuses to service or replace them. It doesn't matter if the service center you are referred to states that the product was defectively made it will not be repaired or replaced. To further the issue the sales associates are uneducated in their jobs as they will either sell you a warranty they do not actually offer (chainsaws and other small engine equipment is non serviceable in Grand Junction Co as they have no service center for them.) or in other cases (the Husqvarna riding mower with 37.6 hours of use which had the deck fall off and apart as it wasn't actually even welded) recommend you not to purchase the warranty as it is a waste of money as it is covered by the manufacturer (Husqvarna), then they will tell you it is your fault for not purchasing it after being instructed not to by their employee. Either way avoiding shopping at Lowe's is the best way to save money and save yourself the headaches.

    I’m not one to complain when someone makes a mistake as I’ve made many myself, but this has truly been the worst experience since becoming a loyal Lowe’s customer. We finally decided to go with a much needed bathroom update and were trying to get it completed by Christmas day. My decision to go with a Dream Line Essence Frameless Bypass shower door was because delivery date was December 23rd. Contractor scheduled install for December 24th. I probably should not have done that but like I said, I’ve made mistakes myself before.

    I had to inform contractor that the door did not make it in and he would have to wait to install. He understood and said sometimes deliveries are delayed, especially during Holidays. He said maybe it will be in after Christmas and suggested I install a shower curtain meanwhile. He went ahead and rescheduled for December 28th. On December 27th, I had to call him and let him know that door was still not in and Lowe’s could not tell me how much longer before it’s in. At this point, he said he would just wait until door was in to reschedule.

    On January 3rd, 2020, door finally arrived. I picked it up, and called him to schedule install. He scheduled it for January 11, 2020. Once he arrived and opened the box, he informed me that he could not install it because all he had in the box was 2 glass panes (the doors) and no hardware. He said they was probably a second box missing. I took off to Lowe’s to see if they had the box. Spoke with manager and explained the issue. After 30 minutes, I had to call contractor to cancel install because they did not have anything. Manager explained to me that this was a Dreamline problem and wrote done the number so I can call them to request hardware.

    On January 13, 2020, I called Dreamline and after checking, they said this was Lowe’s problem because they picked up 2 boxes and they would have to order hardware if they lost it. By this point I am getting really frustrated! I called my local Lowe’s and asked to speak with a manager, but first had to explain my issue. After 10 minutes on hold, another person came on the line and I had to explain the issue again. I waited 40 minutes and 30 seconds before I decided to hang up.

    After hanging up, I called complaint number for Lowe’s and Customer Service Agent Gabriela heard my issue. She was very understanding and placed me on hold why she call Lowe’s of Tyler. After a couple of minutes, she came back and said it might take a little longer and would call me back. With in 30 minutes called me back and said they could not find the second box but Lowe’s of Tyler would take care of this issue within 24 hours and they would call me. This was at 11:05 am. At 11:38 am, I got a call from Lowe’s of Tyler that they have found the second box and it would be at customer service desk so I can pick it up.

    Yay! They found it! Yes, I’m excited that they found it, but really! After everything you put me through and now this $500 shower door is costing me an extra $150 because, oh yea! Forgot to mention I did have to pay contractor something for this last attempt since it was not his fault and he had to pay his guys. I really hope this door looks nice because right now I am not pleased with how Lowe’s handled this issue. Like I said in the beginning, I don’t complain when someone makes a mistake and am not one to plaster issues all over social media because I understand we all make mistakes. I do think highly of people/businesses when they own up to their mistakes and judge whether or not to continue with that relationship based on how they correct an error. In this case, Lowe’s is not a place I would recommend or continue to do business with.

We agreed to a speckled gray made from a solid surface. I had a picture and used that to show the lady entering it into the computer. It was over $3200 just for the large counter. My husband and I did think it was odd that we got at least 3 phone calls to confirm our order. From 2 different people. They seemed to not know the other person had called.

    The installation was delayed, and we realized someone dropped the ball on the integrated sink. This is a sink that is made into the counter, with no seams on the final product. The installation guys arrived on time, did a fantastic job. However, the counter was a solid gray color. No speckles. It looks beautiful, but isn’t what I ordered. Lowe’s says the employee did nothing wrong. They say she ordered what we wanted. Fail. So, just be very clear on what you want, and only talk to one person the whole time.

I have complained to the store about this situation and they said they can cancel the order and reorder it. Yet that they wouldn't honor the cost of the price. Are you serious? I was promised the delivery by December 21, 2019 and nothing showed up.

    I'm very disappointed that I have lost time off work to deal with this headache as they NO ONE bothers to pick up the phone. As a matter fact when you make a call at the store (305) 817-6570 it rings and makes you go through the automated teller and then you get transferred the call drops every time. So in order to find the status of the order I'm required to drive to the store just to hear that no one has any answers about my order. Seriously should have considered other places other than Lowe's. Let's see if I will ever receive my appliance. I hope this is read by those in the corporation as this types of issues should not happen to consumers.

    Purchased high end dishwasher ($700+) in December 2019. Scheduled drop-off for Jan 6th (so good so far). Got notifications up-to delivery date (again, so good so far). Given window of 11-3 for delivery. Got call from last-mile delivery company at 10:30 saying "will be arriving around 11:30" (great so far right). Left work, unpaid btw, to go home and wait for delivery. 11:25 got call saying, "Your "refrigerator" will be there soon." Uhhh I never purchased a refrigerator. Guy put me on hold then hung up. Never said if he was still coming or not? Waited 1 hour with no call back, no notification, then called the last-mile carrier. After 45 minutes on the phone was told that they couldn't handle my questions and transferred me to Lowe's... Another 45 minutes on the phone and Lowe's told me the following:

    1. "Sorry the Dishwasher you purchased over 3 weeks ago isn't in yet and you'll have to wait another 1-2 weeks!!!" To which I replied "So you mean to tell me you [Lowe's] as a publicly traded company 1. took my money 2. waited until the delivery date and sent a delivery truck out to my house with NO PRODUCT THAT I PURCHASED? 3. NEVER called, texted, or emailed during this time to tell me the product wasn't in and offered another solution?" Weird but no response from Lowe's agent. I then told the Lowe's customer service agent, "You know what go ahead and cancel my order and refund my money." To which I was told "Sorry we can't refund your money to your card. You have to PHYSICALLY go to the store you purchased the product from"!!!!

    Forget that it's 2020 and I can send literally thousands of dollars anywhere around the world with one of many apps yet you can't, again as a publicly traded company with stores nationwide, refund me back to my card? MAKES 0 SENSE. Went to the store after work, which I've now lost a day of work and pay, to pick up my refund. 1.5 hours round trip for me. Arrived and was told by both store managers, "Uhhh sorry but your refund won't be available for another day or two. We'll call you"!!!! WTF. "Why wasn't I told this on the phone so I didn't waste 45 minutes driving here." Silence and no answer from Lowe's Managers other than "sorry". Literally one of the worst customer experiences I've had with a corporation. You better believe I'm sharing this story with others. Jason **

    We got a vacuum from Lowe's and the staff was very helpful and kind. I have had great success with the vacuum and it has lasted us a long time. I appreciate the staff at Lowe's for recommending the vacuum.

    Horrible service - will never order from Lowe's again. The last order was a year ago and it had to be cancelled because they never delivered the appliance and had no idea where it was. That was after six weeks of waiting. The most recent order arrived damaged and the delivery crew damaged my walls. Lowe's told me I had to deal with the delivery company for the damage. Sorry, I didn't hire the delivery company, or have a choice in who delivered the appliance. Complete incompetence and lack of accepting any responsibility - never again.

    They lost most of the information on my order, had my contact number wrong, stood me up for delivery 3 times. I finally got someone who cared about their job and customer service. The only redeeming quality of this store is Anna, the night operations supervisor. Thank you Anna, for seeing the order through, giving me your personal cell number to contact you for updates and for making sure it was finally delivered and installed. It shouldn't be so hard to buy a washer and dryer less than 3 miles from the delivery address. I understand that they use a "third party delivery service"... Well.. It is useless! But Anna, the night ops supervisor isn't, and she needs a raise and front end position. Don't hide good customer service people out back in night jobs.

    Bought a 3 year extended warranty for a washer and dryer. When I purchased it I had asked the sales man about if they came out yearly and serviced them. I was told at the time of purchasing the warranty it was included. Come to find out, no a simple yearly maintenance check is not included.

    We purchased a smoker/barbecue ($500) on December 12 in the Elk Grove store. They assured it would be delivered to our son for a Christmas present by Christmas. It wasn't delivered. I called and they said no one assembled the grill so it couldn't be delivered. No one called us to tell us what happened. I had to call them. They scheduled another delivery date. The morning of that day I got a call from the delivery person who said he was not willing to deliver the grill because it was scratched and its paint was chipped. At least it was assembled. They scheduled another delivery day with assurance that it would be in great shape. I called two days before the delivery date. The grill was not assembled and they didn't know when it would be.

    I spoke with someone who said he was an assistant manager. He assured me he would personally make sure the grill was assembled and delivered on the promised date. Today is the delivery day. My son got a call form them saying the grill was not assembled and the soonest they could get it to him would be in three days. I called the store and they assured me it would be assembled overnight and delivered tomorrow. We'll see. In my 65 years this is the worst customer service I have ever experienced. Lowe's should be ashamed. I plan on meeting the store manager tomorrow.

    We bought a defective yard decoration on December 24th. Did not realize that we would be SOL if we didn’t take it back by the 26th, and didn’t think much of it being defective because we thought we could just return the not properly working item. Called customer service and was told they were there to serve the stores not the customers. That is not customer service.

    I purchased a light for my barn and the delivery date has come and gone yet no light. If I could give them zero stars I would have. Looks like I will be using Home Depot from now on since Lowe’s is unreliable. I have heard nothing on how they are going to fix this so tomorrow I am going to my bank and ending the transaction. ????

    Ordered 4 appliances for kitchen. Delivery guys rude and angry. Left dishwasher in box in livingroom. Refrigerator and stove loaded with plastics, tapes and styrofoam. One delivery guy told me products would be damaged in a fit of anger. He wad correct. Stove has huge dent. They did not make sure things worked like Lowe's website promises. On way out they threw heavy water hookups on flat stove top. Do not get appliances delivered by Lowe's.

    Stay away from Lowe's! I just finished a 4 month long kitchen cabinet/countertop project and many mistakes were made during the installation process. Installers left a mess in my home, cabinets were not installed professionally. I paid for work to be done and it was not. Lowes refuses to refund my money! I have to live with a sloppy looking new kitchen because the cabinets were not installed properly and Lowes told me it is good enough. Never shop at Lowes!

    I bought two appliances during their thanksgiving day sale according to their published terms. I have submitted required forms and receipts twice and both times they have declined my rebates. I have talked to multiple people in both their rebate and customer service departments and no one has been able to explain the problem. All they say is resubmit the request via mail (terms of the original order says you can submit rebate request by internet which I have done twice). They can give me no reassurance that via mail will make any difference.
