    My first time ordering at Lowe's for delivery and my order was brought to the wrong door. Customer service was nice but they said someone would get in touch with me within 24 hours and it has been 3 days. I'm very disappointed and I hope my matter will soon be handled. It has been a terrible experience.

    On last Saturday, May 9, 2026 I shopped Lowe's on South Wadsworth, Littleton Colorado. I was wanting to buy four specific outdoor patio chairs. They had several on display two days before. Only one was left. I give very high praise to Alex C. who checked their inventory online and showed many. He and his Supervisor searched stock in back and found them! Alex brought the four chairs to the front of the store. I paid for them. Alex waited and so kindly loaded them into my pickup. I give him high praise for being so helpful for me.

    I ordered a Kobalt 80v backpack leaf blower on the Lowe's app and received a Kobalt 80v cordless trimmer and hand held blower combo kit. I don’t live near Lowe's which was the reason I ordered it from the app. Customer service on the phone states that they cannot assist with getting my original order to me. I have to contact the store to get that resolved. Discord was screwed up from the warehouse. Why am I doing all of the work to get it resolved. When I asked about compensation for this issue, customer service rep just kept saying it’s a possibility. Well, this fact that I have to go out of my way to burn my gas and use my time to get this resolved.

    Lowe's has totally forgot that they must have customers to survive. I have called 7 different phone numbers trying to get a human customer service person. The phone numbers listed on their site either do not work or when dialed would be dropped sometimes after waiting 30 minutes. I have a Lowe's credit card and a MyLowe's card that I no longer are using. I will go to other companies to avoid Lowe's. Lowe's used staff their departments with very knowledgeable people but today it is rare.

    Lowes in Carlsbad NM have some of the rudest people that work for them. I hate the self check out. Especially when you want to pay in cash and they are only card machines. They need to have cashiers instead of self checkout. I will never shop at this lowes again. Hopefully they will change. Also you need to supply bags at the self checkout

    I purchased a Frigidaire refrigerator model GRFG2353AFK from Lowe’s and this has turned into one of the worst appliance and customer service experiences I have ever dealt with. Delivery #1. The first unit arrived damaged. The delivery team had already removed and taken my original refrigerator, so I was left with a damaged fridge in my home and no backup option. A replacement was scheduled for the next day.

    Delivery #2, The second Frigidaire GRFG2353AFK was installed. Before the crew left, I noticed the interior light did not turn on when opening the doors. I was told “that happens sometimes” and they reset the refrigerator. After about 10 minutes the light came on and I was told everything was fine. About 30 minutes after they left, the light failed again and the refrigerator displayed an “ER” error code. I contacted Lowe’s again and now needed a third refrigerator. Due to scheduling delays, I had to wait a couple days. The refrigerator still cooled, so I made it work temporarily, but the error code never cleared.

    Delivery #3. The third Frigidaire GRFG2353AFK was installed. Initially everything appeared fine. About 4 to 5 days later, the refrigerator started freezing everything inside the refrigerator compartment. Sodas were turning to slush and ice when opened. Meal prep containers were forming ice. Sauces like ketchup, barbecue sauce, and mustard were thickening and partially freezing. The interior water dispenser line also froze and stopped dispensing water.

    I tested the refrigerator with a thermometer. With the refrigerator set to 36 degrees, a glass of water froze to 32 degrees within 4 hours. I then reset the refrigerator, set it to 43 degrees, and the water still froze within 4 hours. This refrigerator cannot regulate temperature and is clearly defective. At this point this would have been my fourth refrigerator. I asked Lowe’s for a reasonable solution. I simply wanted to switch to a different model or receive store credit so I could purchase another refrigerator from them.

    Instead, I was placed on hold for over an hour and then told I was outside the 48 hour return window. I explained there is absolutely no way to identify this defect within 48 hours because the freezing issue and dispenser failure do not present themselves until 4 to 5 days of normal use. Despite receiving multiple defective or damaged units in a row, this was ignored.

    I asked for a supervisor and was placed on hold another 38 minutes. I eventually had to hang up because I could not stay on the phone for nearly two hours over something Lowe’s should have handled immediately. The final answer from Lowe’s was that I must deal directly with the manufacturer. This entire situation has been completely outside of my control. I have now received three defective or damaged Frigidaire GRFG2353AFK refrigerators.

    The primary defect cannot physically be discovered within Lowe’s 48 hour return window. I have spent hours dealing with deliveries, issues, support calls, scheduling delays, and troubleshooting. I attempted to resolve this reasonably and even offered to continue purchasing through Lowe’s if they would simply work with me on a replacement or model swap.

    Instead, Lowe’s chose to hide behind a policy that does not even apply to how this defect presents itself. This was a complete failure of customer service. Lowe’s had every opportunity to make this right by replacing the unit again, allowing a model swap, or issuing store credit. Instead, they chose not to support their customer at all. If something goes wrong, Lowe’s will not stand behind the sale, even after multiple confirmed defective units. I will not be purchasing appliances from Lowe’s again.

    So as we was checking out the guy was rude as ever. I'm just asking how much things cause he like "Wait a minute. Do this. Do that." He snatches my phone so of course I take my phone back and he puts it on the counter. No. You put my phone in my hand.

    TERRIBLE customer service and executive customer relations team!!! Wanted to order a couple of simple vinyl screen doors for our pool gazebos due to deterioration of the current vinyl ones (also purchased from Lowe's a couple of years ago). Started researching online at their official website that Fri morning and found one on sale for $24.92 reg $100 so, of course, wanted to order it, especially when it stated at our store there were 9 in stock and we could pick up there within the hour. When the website shows availability and the location of the item at our store or nearby, we just go to the store, pick up, and pay there. My husband was on his way home from ATL and stopped by our store to pick up. Was told by the manager it was a sale item and had to be ordered for pick up since it was on sale online only not in the store.

    I told him just to come on in and we'd order it and pick up the next morning since it would be on a Sat. Kept trying to order off and on throughout the day (and every time I went to the site, it would refresh and that sale price would come up!) when I had a moment until around 6 pm when I finally decided to call and place the order over the phone. Imagine my surprise when the C/S state it couldn't be that price there must be a glitch (not sure if they saw the same price I did but I'm guessing they did because that's the way they acted) and my response a glitch for the entire day?!?!?

    They would not honor the price over the phone even though it was their mistake! So I reached out to their Executive C/S Team to a person I've dealt with before who has always been very helpful but was told she wasn't in that dept anymore (I've dealt off and on with her since 2022) and someone else answered with their standard 'sorry (but not really sorry) we can't honor that price even though it was our mistake but we can help you order it at the correct price (like I'm stupid and can't order online like I've been doing for the past 12 years I've been a customer!). Lowe's should HONOR their posted sale price, their error or not!

    Horrible way to do business. I am starting to believe that Lowe's is about to go under, with horrible customer service reviews that I'm reading and what I had to experience with their delivery service. I wish I would have read the reviews before I purchased something that needed delivery. It was a nightmare. They refused to do their job. I am a pros member. I am to get delivery set up and haul away free... only thing I got was delivery and they didn't want to do that. I have video of the entire time they were here and everything they did and didn't do. And everything that was talked about. I have 23 cameras in my house. Video doesn't lie. My advice to anyone don't buy from Lowe's.

    I purchased $1,400 worth of carpet on April 21. It was supposed to be delivered on April 25th per customer specialist. When I got home, I got a text pushing delivery date to May 1st. I asked for a early morning window, because I have to work. I waited until 12:45 pm and then call Edgewood store. They kept me on hold 30 minutes, and when I called back, I was placed on hold again for 45 minutes. By 2:00 p.m., they still didn't deliver carpet. Today is the 2nd of May, still no carpet, no update, no delivery, nothing. I've been trying to get carpet from Lowe's since October, but they kept dropping the ball...here we go again! Carpet already paid for, but they have lousy customer service...

    I purchased a GE washer 13 months ago- literally St. Patty’s Day, 2025. One month past the manufacturer’s warranty, the pump broke and circuit board fried. Our children are grown and out of the house so it was not like I do 4 loads a day all week long. Seriously- it’s a little over a year old and as far as I know, washers are not disposable appliances. Since I did not purchase an extended warranty, neither GE or Lowe’s customer service will offer any assistance. To repair this 13 month old washer would cost more than it did to buy it in the first place.

    To be fair- I never purchase the extended warranties. One- I have never had an issues that my husband could not fix and two- any issue that there was happened beyond 5 years. If this washer was older, I would be like- that is on me. I am so disappointed in this product. It was actually recommended to me by the Lowe’s salesperson. I then did my our research and did not find any overt red flags. (Apparently I didn’t not look long enough). Still so disappointed- (did I say that already) that a major issue at 13 months and I am basically told tough beans. That is such poor customer service from both companies for a major appliance that is basically new. I would be more apt to think that I got a defective appliance right from the get go. I will never buy a GE washer again. Bring back the Kenmore of the olden days when it functioned like the day I first got it after 17 years- not one problem- other than aesthetic wear.

    I will not be using Lowe’s again and strongly recommend avoiding their installation services. I paid Lowe’s about $2,600 upfront to remove carpet from my stairs and install wood treads. My contract clearly included both materials and labor. The materials were delivered, but no one ever contacted me about next steps.

    After I had to proactively call Lowe’s, I was told they made a billing mistake and I would need to pay an additional ~$450 — something I would have no way of knowing or catching as a customer. They only discovered this after speaking with the installer. What’s worse is that instead of contacting me, the employee (Antonishia Dixon) who made the mistake added a note in their system stating that I had agreed to pay the additional cost — which is completely untrue. I only found out when I received a random text asking me to sign an updated contract.

    I spent over a month escalating this issue and made 10+ calls between the store and corporate. Even though Lowe’s admitted this was their error, they refused to honor the original contract. My only options were to pay more or cancel. I was forced to take a refund after weeks of delays. This was a complete failure in process, communication, and accountability. I paid in full based on Lowe’s contract, and they still wouldn’t stand behind it. Even as a long-time customer of over 15 years who has used Lowe’s for previous projects, they refused to make this right. I will not be using Lowe’s again and strongly recommend avoiding their installation services.

    As a Pro member, I expect a certain level of service — especially at the Pro Desk, which is supposed to cater specifically to contractors and tradespeople who bring consistent, high-volume business. Unfortunately, my last visit was a reminder that one bad employee can completely unravel a customer relationship that took years to build.

    The cashier at the Pro Desk was flat-out rude. No greeting, no acknowledgment, and an attitude that made me feel like I was an inconvenience rather than a valued customer. I've been a Pro member and spent a significant amount of money at Lowe's over the years — and this is how that loyalty was repaid. In today's competitive retail environment, customer-facing employees are the face of the brand. They are often the single deciding factor in whether a customer walks out feeling good — or walks out and never comes back. This employee clearly missed that memo.

    I'm reluctant to return to this location, and frankly, Home Depot is now looking a lot more appealing. What Lowe's doesn't seem to realize is that losing a Pro member isn't just losing one transaction. It's losing thousands of dollars in future purchases, referrals, and repeat business. One employee's poor attitude carries a price tag that corporate should take very seriously. To Lowe's leadership: invest in your people. Train them. Hold them accountable. Because right now, one bad interaction is driving your loyal Pro customers straight to your competition.

    I had to buy a new washer recently and ordered one from store #2423 in Colorado Springs. Had trouble getting order done on phone (couldn't get past AI), no invoice sent to my email, and when it came time for delivery could never get past AI and when finally got a date they cancelled it that morning. Then I found Jim Hilbert, head cashier in customer service, after screaming at AI for hours, and he fixed it all. Not only did I get the next day delivery but he followed up to be sure they were coming and got me a copy of the washer manual, without which I would be lost. He restored my faith in customer service IF I can get by AI. And Lowe's needs to do something about their AI that won't let you talk to a human.

    October 2024, I purchased cabinets and countertops projects from Lowe's in Madera for a home renovation, preparation for a wedding in August 2025. I chose Lowe's because I wanted Quality products and labor, which I believed comes with big company name brand: Lowe's. Lowe's personnel came to measure kitchen area, removed old cabinets and countertops. The estimated time of completion was 3 months. All cabinets did arrived in December 30, of 2024. Installation was an issue: not the correct cabinets, poorly built cabinets, and more, so installer refused to install. July 2025, I requested for a refund, moved the wedding to another venue, Lowe's refused to refund for their poor cabinet products, and they also refused to refund the labor costs which was already paid for but have not been used.

    I talked to corporate headquarters, they promised completion the following month (August 2025) and refund half of the project costs. Now, this is the end of April 2026, almost a year later, neither cabinets completely installed or half the costs refunded. My calls and emails have been continued to be ignored. I will seek media publicity next, for no one else shall fall into this misfortune with Lowe's.

    We used Lowe’s to do a kitchen remodel in December of 2025. The experience has been a nightmare, here we are going into May and I still do not have a fully functional kitchen. They are unwilling to fairly compensate us and take ownership. I strongly would urge consumers to do their homework and read your contract, they make it to where you cannot go after them and be made whole. We paid upfront as well, which has not made them accountable, because they already got paid.

    I recently purchased a $2,000 Polywood outdoor furniture set from Lowe's, and the overall experience has been extremely frustrating from start to finish. At the time of purchase, I was told I would be contacted to schedule installation once the order was delivered. Instead, without any prior notice, a truck arrived and dropped a pallet in my driveway. After waiting without any follow-up, I had to reach out myself to arrange installation.

    When the installation was scheduled, an individual arrived in a personal vehicle with no identifying information. Upon arrival, he immediately stated he was not making much money on the job and asked for a tip. He partially assembled the furniture but stopped due to a broken couch component. He then left all boxes and furniture pieces scattered in my driveway and instructed me to contact Lowe's for resolution.

    I spent several days attempting to get assistance through customer service. Each time, I was told the issue was being worked on, only to follow up and find there was no record of the work order. This cycle repeated multiple times until I finally went into the store in person. Sandy at the store was helpful and able to coordinate a replacement couch through Polywood, which I appreciate. However, the delivery experience again fell short--the driver refused to bring the replacement box up the driveway and left it in my front yard.

    I am now still trying to: Have the original pallet removed from my property, and Get the furniture properly assembled. Unfortunately, every time I call the Holly Springs store, I am placed on hold until the call disconnects. I have been a loyal Lowe's customer for years, in part because of its North Carolina roots, but this experience has been so difficult that it has seriously impacted my willingness to continue shopping with Lowe's.
