    When our water heater had multiple leaks we decided to go to Lowe's to purchase one and have it installed. We went in Friday morning and had what we thought was a great experience with a sales guy who helped us pick one out and set us up for installation. When we asked when it would be installed he replied with "Tomorrow. They will give you a call in the morning to let you know about what time." We said great, went to The Mills House to shower and dealt with no hot water thinking it would be fixed tomorrow. Tomorrow comes and we never receive a phone call. At about 1 pm I decide to call Lowe's and see what's going on. After being put on hold by them 3 times by 3 different people one person tells me that she will try to help me as the install desk isn't answering. I tell her what's going on, and she lets me know that installation doesn't just happen the next day.

    That it takes a few days for them to get the permit for install, etc. I told her we were told it would be installed today. She got her manager for me, and I told her my story as well. She said she would have the install desk call me in 15 minutes. 20 minutes later I call again because I haven't heard anything. The manager gets on the phone and tells me the install desk girl went to lunch and will be back in 30 minutes. An hour later I call again. The manager informs me install is still at lunch but she will help me. She told me that the only way they could do next day install on a weekend is if we paid for emergency install which we declined. I told her we were never offered it and asked how much it is. She said its $150 more and we already paid $1200 for this whole thing. I told her that if I paid for that would they be able to come out today. By this point it was 4 pm. She said no, it's too late for that. Soonest they could come is Monday.

    I told her that's fine and asked her to schedule it on Monday for me. Monday comes around and they call in the morning and say they will be here between 10-2. They get here at about 12:30 and immediately the technician informs us that they don't have the right water heater. Apparently our sales guy who not only put on our paperwork that we declined something he never offered us also didn't ask us which kind of venting we have on our water heater, which he also just put on the paperwork as the standard one. So the technicians tell us they are going to go take this heater back to Lowe's and they will get it all figured out. He said Lowe's would give us a call. We wait an hour and don't hear anything so we call Lowe's to cancel and get a full refund. This was twice now that by the fault of Lowe's, we did not have our water heater replaced. 4 days without a water heater.

    So we had another company come out to give us an estimate. They want $3200. Apparently this particular water heater and the way it vents is not standard and costs a lot more. By this point it's 7 pm so we tell them we will think it over and call in the morning. We have another company come out the next morning and they estimate us at $4300 so we call the other company back. They come out within two hours and install it for us. So 5 days total with no water heater. We were never offered a discount or any type of compensation or apology for the crap job that Lowe's did and will no longer be shopping there. When we first bought our home we spent thousands of dollars at this particular store too so they are losing good customers. A simple apology and a discount on the correct water heater could've kept us, but the workers were all lazy and didn't care about their job. So sad.

    We purchased a microwave, oven and stove top with a 5 year extended warranty from Lowe's in June 2017. In June of 2018, just slightly over the expiration of the manufacturer warranty, the microwave stopped working. A repairman was sent and he stated the microwave was irreparable and had to be replaced. Yesterday September 19 we finally closed the buy with the Lowe's warranty department. Between those dates were countless phone calls, emails and many many broken promises. I will never step foot in a Lowe's again. I'm making it my personal mission to spread the word of my experience and try to detour as many customers away from Lowe's as possible.

    Paid in full $27,000 for siding for our rental home on lake in March. Was disappointed when they gave me a June 4 start date as I have renters, but was assured that it would be about a week and half from start to finish. Wow, can't even tell you what I went through for them to start on June 21st. Only two guys showed for the job and some days didn't show. Installers told me they would be done before my biggest rental of the season July 4 week. Of course they were not and materials and tools left all over lawn that was impossible to rent for my $2400 that I get. Called customer service rep Kiara ** that was assigned to my job and she told me that I would be compensated.

    Job was complete on July 9. Sent Kiara my contract for my renter that I couldn't rent to and receipt of a different rental a friend had to help me put this family into to make them happy. Provided everything they asked for. It is now mid Sept and Kiara along with her supervisor George ** will not even call me. They are just avoiding me. I have never came across such awful business practices. I have always used local contractors and never used Lowe's for a job. Thought I would try it. Please don't make the same mistakes I made.

    Lowe's has worst customer service in the world. Purchase a cooktop online. Waited for delivery twice. They no show twice. The day before I receive a phone call from the delivery company confirming the delivery. I also, call the delivery company at 1 pm the day of delivery to confirm. I was advised, the item should be delivery around 2:30pm. Received NO DELIVERY... List of reason provide by Lowe's Why they DID NOT delivery item. The first time, I was told, there was no room in the truck by Lowe's. Item was take off the truck. It's was on the Manifest but delivery company did not pick the item to delivery to customer. Why call the customer the day before to confirm delivery, when there was no cooktop.

    I call the delivery company at 1 pm of day of delivery. I was told the item should arrive between there 12-2:30. At 3:30pm item did not arrive. I call the delivery company to track the delivery. I was told Lowe's took the item off the truck. Throughout the day, I receive no call from the delivery company or Lowe's advised me there will be no delivery. I make all the initial calls to all the company. Spoke with Ann (Lowe's Store) and Christian at (Lowe's customer service care center). I was advised there was mix up with the manifest. The Item will be delivery on Tuesday. We only delivery on Tuesday and Thursday. Today is Tuesday, NO DELIVERY AGAIN FROM Lowe's. I received a call on Monday and text advised me the item will be delivery on Tuesday between 12-2pm.

    At 3 pm I received no delivery or call from the delivery company or Lowe's. I call the delivery company to track the delivery. I was advised by delivery company. The store manager took the item off the truck. I ask why? She don't know. They call the store no answer. I call Lowe's customer care center. Still trying to track the item. Here is list of reason Lowe's provided why there was no delivery. Item was take off the truck, sold to walk-in customer. It's was custom order, it will take a few week for delivery. And later I was told its was standard item. Because you order online, you must call the store (Lowe's) inform the inventory department regarding my online. Its make no sense. Because you order online, the item has not been charge or paid. I have purchase the item with credit card.

    There was no problem with my card. Spoke with Asst Manager, don't know anything regarding your problem. All information provide by Lowe's store make no sense. Still waiting for my cooktop and confirmation when the item will be delivery. When there is delay in delivery. Lowe's should call their customer and advised them. The customer should not be tracking the item on day of delivery. People take time off to wait for delivery.

    I started this process back in May. Not only did I have to drive down to Pembroke Pines from Boca Raton to sign papers (what happened to eSignatures?) because the Boca Store couldn't handle the request for my property in Hollywood. The paperwork had to be redone a few times due to errors so I spend 3.5 hrs in the store on a Sunday. It is now mid September and the Permit is still sitting, un-approved, with the City of Hollywood. It has been four (4) month, still no impact doors, Hurricane Season is almost over and I have been paying for the doors since May. The update phone calls have stopped! I will never use Lowe's again for any of my projects. What was I thinking in the first place?

    We hired Lowe's February 28th to do the a professional finish for our Kitchen, Living and half bath. The project included drywall, flooring, heated floors, cabinets, paint and mill work. We had licensed professional overhaul the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC which was completed in April and work fine. Our project was schedule to be complete on Mid May but Lowe's lost our cabinet and could not find them until May. Our project then got extended to end of June 23. The contractor provided by Lowe's did not have the experience to complete our job. He often did not show up to our job and when he did the finishes were not what we paid for or had discuss. Many months (9 month from start, 3 month after our schedule completion) later we still have no kitchen. Our project is incomplete. We now have sewer smells, faulty electrical, HVAC filled with construction debris.

    Several professionals that have said the work that Lowe's did do needs to be rip out and redone to fix the issues created by the Lowe's contractor. This includes the drywall, flooring, cabinets. So really nothing has been done or completed. We complained to the project Coordinator multiple times about the contractor. Our latest complaint about the floor, smell, electrical and HVac was logged on July 28th. Lowe's has not made any decision, they initially wanted us to keep using the same contractor and we had to fight to get him fired off our job. We have complained to Lowe's customer care and all the complaints get rerouted back the project coordinator and not addressed.

    We tried hiring another contractor outside of Lowe's but no one wants to fix the issues created by the Lowe's contractor. We are stuck having paid $98k to Lowe's for a professionally completed home improvement and received a unimprovement damages to our property and left with paying the cost for nothing but heartache stress. We have no plan forward from Lowe's, incomplete cabinets, walls that have to come down, flooring that was improperly install (it has tripping hazards, and the heated floor does not work).

    In addition the sewer smell and high pitch ringing from our HVAC due to the debris is making our house more inhabitable everyday. Some days when the smell is really bad, we have slept over at a neighbor house or in our cars. We have no recourse and need help. Never use Lowe's for any improvement, quality, problem assistance, lack of concern and care is not there. Your recourse is to talk with your project coordinator and if they take their time or need to escalate the issues for approval months will go by without any decision or action. Complaining to customer care just results in the project coordinator being notified. We need action from Lowe's or a full refund plus damages.

    We are in the middle of two major installations through Lowe's (new windows for our entire house, completely remodeling two bathrooms). Customer service has been awful from the moment they took our money. We paid for our windows the first week of June, told they'd be installed by mid-July. That changed, then changed, then changed. Now they say mid-October. Twice we've been told they were delivered to the store only to be told the next day they don't know where they are and will be reordered. With the bathrooms, the salesperson was absolutely clueless. Mistake after mistake that we had to correct. That project is at least looking like it will be on time though (the materials are in our garage, so we know they're in). I can't speak to the contractors themselves because we can't seem to make it that far without problems.

    My husband and I needed a new range. The salesperson at location was very helpful. He went out of his way to help with our purchase. This was on a Saturday night and range was to be delivered the following Saturday. Lowe’s thirdparty delivery service is awful. We had requested delivery in the afternoon but had not heard anything before 7:00 pm about what time range would be delivered. Called store the last time at 8:30 pm asking about time frame. Finally received call from delivery service just before 9:00 pm with early morning delivery time. Lowe’s needs to change delivery service. Will never deal with Lowe’s for items that need to be delivered again.

    I've ordered everything online and this is the first time I've ever order anything online from Lowe's and it will be my last. I've ordered the Frigidaire Range Hood Item #: 346106 | Model #: FHWC3660LS and it was scheduled to deliver in a little over 3 weeks. Home Depot had the same item and it would have delivered in a week, but I decided to go with Lowe's since it cost a little less. Big Mistake!! A few days before the schedule date, I got an email confirmation that my shipment was scheduled. I was supposed to get a call the day before or day off on the window of the delivery time.

    Come delivery day I didn't get a phone call or email so I called them up and check on the status. The guy told me that they didn't even receive the item at the fulfillment store. Then he said he was going to check with the delivery manager. Dude didn't even bother to call me back. Then not long after that I got an email indicating that my order has been changed with no reasoning as to what happened. So if I never called them they wouldn't even notify me or even check on my order? Now I have to wait over 4 more weeks before my new delivery date!! I called them and all they could say is that since it's an online order and not in stock that it's coming from the vendor and they have no control over it. What kind of bull crap is that?

    It's your name on the website, it's your reputation, if you can't work with a vendor that you can rely on then it's you who dropped the ball on this. This is BAD business, who would ever want to order anything if it's not going to arrive as expected. Even at this point they still could not tell me where my item is and when exactly it was going to arrive. So I cancel that crap then went onto Home Depot and order it there. I should have done that 4 weeks ago!

    I run a good sized property management company and we have been purchasing all our kitchen appliances from Lowe's for the last few years. Everything was great in the past and we used them exclusively and chose them over Home Depot consistently, but these last 6-12 months have been unbelievably bad with every single appliance order we have placed having issues with deliveries and billing from so many angles.

    The day before or of delivery we would end up not receiving all the promised appliances. New tenants moving in did not have the promised appliances due to Lowe's errors and then would take multiple weeks to finally receive them in. The time spent trying to rectify and solve the issue mounted to countless hours of wasted time that has greatly affected our productivity. We will not be dealing with Lowe's anymore and are transiting to Home Depot going forward. We spend close to a $100,000 on appliances every year and we will not be spending that money with Lowe's anymore.

    Warning. Never use Lowe’s for fence installation, installer John. Lowe’s this is how I feel, so my first online rant Worst experience ever with having a fence installed, first I’d like to say yes the 300’ white fence looks beautiful in front of our home when passing by, but for $6,000. It should. It was installed the beginning of June before our daughter's wedding, assured by Lowe’s Greg ** sales person that their professional architect will make sure it’s installed correctly. Greg measured himself. Delivered short on supplies, then we come home to this 1/2 of scalloped fence smack in the middle. Countless calls to the Salesman that says it no long in his hands, calling corporate, countless days, looking for this to be corrected, and here we are In September. They are the worst telling us the replacement fence is on order, I go to the store and the fence has was received in the back on 7/12/18.

    Looks like because they already have our money they don’t care if we are happy or not. We had to go and pick up the replacement fencing ourselves. Lowe’s should call their customer Judy **. Update, the installation person should have been at our house today 9/12 to start the repair, with the 6 missing post, no show again. Called the store. No one will take the call or call us back. The worst.

    The installation of this fence was incorrect. They hired an inexperienced company. They didn’t haul off debris and left the yard a mess. The gates were incorrect and they have now ordered the same gates 6 times. This has been going on for 4 months. I now have to hire a different company to fix the problems. Do not trust your fence install with Lowe’s. Communication is horrible and they are not helpful. The fence was installed crooked and the gates broke within a week.

    Store 1787 has the worst customer service department of any Lowe's store throughout Georgia & Florida. (9/4/18) I called into the store to express my concern regarding an "interest" issue with a recent purchase, that should have been "6 months interest-free on purchases of $299.00 or more." My purchase was $1000.000. The person that answered said that the managers were in a meeting, but, she would talk with them about this after their meeting. I expected a call that day. ZERO FOLLOW-UP!

    (9/5/18) I called the store and spoke to a different customer service rep that assured me she was the only one who could help me with this problem & that it was a fairly easy fix. She asked if I could bring all my paperwork concerning this transaction into the store, that afternoon. I did. When I arrived she said that two other people were helping her with my concern. She made a copy of my original purchase receipt. She wrote her name & one of the managers' names on the back of the receipt. I asked her how long it would take to resolve this issue. She said, one to two days.

    (9/6/18) ZERO FOLLOW-UP! ( 9/7/18) I called the store to speak to the customer service rep that helped me on (9/5/18). I was told she was at lunch. I then asked for the manager, whose name she had written on the back of my receipt, on (9/5/18). I was told by the person that answered the phone that he would be in in 15-minutes. I called back within 25-minutes & asked for her again, thinking that she would be back from lunch, by now. Now I'm being told that she wasn't in. I then asked for the manager, believing that he would have arrived at work by now but now I'm also being told that he wasn't coming in that day. I questioned that as I was told earlier that the manager would be in in 15-minutes. Several hours passed & I expected a call but ZERO FOLLOW-UP!

    (9/7/18) Later that afternoon I listened to a voice message from a different Lowe's associate, who I had never spoken to before. I called her. She immediately claimed that she had been trying to arrange an install (which was the least of my worries & not my original concern regarding interest). She continued to "talk over" me, while I was trying to explain my situation. I had to raise my voice to get my point across. When I explained my frustration of being charged interest, specifically when I requested the six months no interest on my card, she said: "Well you didn't check the box!" I said "What box?" She said the box for no interest to be applied. I said that a girl behind the customer service desk completed this temporary credit card for me, & at that time, I had requested the six months no interest. All I did was to sign the keypad on the other side of the desk.

    Then I said that if given the opportunity to pay interest or not, it's a no-brainer that most people would choose no interest. She said; "Well, everyone's different!" At this point I was furious: I said "Don't play this game with me." She hung up on me! I called back within five minutes & asked for the same woman who hung up on me. I was told that she wasn't in. I then asked for the person who helped me originally on (9/5/18) & I was told she wasn't in. I then asked for the name of the person that I was speaking with & all she said was: "I can help you."

    When I asked for her name a second time again she said: "I can help you." I asked a third time & she said the same. She refused to give me her name! I continued to explain my situation. She asked for my cc number, which I gave her. She said that she would handle it. She also asked for my email, which I gave her. I assumed that she would email me later that day, with some news. ZERO FOLLOW-UP!

    (9/8/18) ZERO FOLLOW-UP. (9/9/18) ZERO FOLLOW-UP. Later that afternoon on (9/9/18) I called Lowe's Corporate to complain. 1-800-445-6937. The rep listened to my concerns & said that Corporate would follow up with 24 hours. (9/10/18) ZERO FOLLOW-UP from Corporate! (9/11/18) as of 11:00 am ZERO FOLLOW-UP from store 1787 or Lowe's Corporate! Obviously, I'm getting the run-around! It appears that Customer Service at store 1787 plays games with customers; they cover & lie for each other when they do not want to handle a difficult situation. Is the store manager at store 1787 aware of this?

All three of the times I was left in limbo with no updates to the orders. All it said is that they were in process. I finally called customer care and was told the orders were cancelled. I guess no one bother to let me know or why. They really really suck!!! I have 3 Home Depots within blocks of my house and have never had a single problem with any of the stores or online orders I have made from them.

    July 11th-paid for measurement of windows... $53.00. Contacted department at Lowe's store. Besides being told they were short staffed was also told they currently had no supplier. Really.

Wow, my home is in Minnesota. ONE MONTH later the measurements were taken. September 10th contacted store to get an estimated time for installation. Guess what? ORDER received, (supposedly) had not been processed. Approximately 3 months dealing with a non-existent vendor... Cancelled ordered. Placed order with Home Depot. Supplier does exist.

    The new CEO is going to have their hands full. I think I would have the Manager of each Store be accountable for cancelled orders. I could give them the name of few employees that should also have to explain their lack of customer service. I am out $53.00 measurement charges for a product you can not even supply. Shame on you.

    Please do not ever use Lowe's for a home improvement project. First they make you pay upfront. I will never do that again...then they contract the job out to lousy inept contractors. Our fence job was terrible. Very poor construction and was put in the wrong spot. A job that should have taken 1 or 2 days took over a month of return visits and repairs. It still isn't right. Lowe's doesn't answer or return calls and just gives you the runaround... It is frustrating and stressful. Shop around and hire a legitimate contractor.

    I bought a dishwasher and installation service from Lowe's on August 31st. They charged my AMEX for the agreed amount and they scheduled the installation technician to come to my home today Monday Sep. 10th. Around 11:30, since I had no news from the installer, I called Lowe's. Short version is. More than 45 minutes on the phone. Most of the time on hold. They couldn't find records of the transaction. After being transferred to different extensions, I was told it was my fault because I never paid the purchase or the installation. I told the rep. I had my credit card statement in front of me and there was a charge from Lowe's, on 10/31/18 for the agreed amount.

    Apparently the sales person I had the misfortune to spoke to on 10/31 never set up the appointment with the technician. They offered me to reschedule the appointment but at this point, considering 2 hours of my time wasted with the purchase and today's conversation, I do not want to deal with Lowe's and probably I will go with the competition. I got a phone call from Lowe's later on to let me know they credited my AMEX with the due refund.

    I purchased $9800 of Pella windows at Lowe's and to be installed by Lowe's. The windows were not installed properly and the job was never complete. The windows are not properly flashed, fastened, not plum and leaking. Customer service is terrible, I have been lied to and they have no follow through. This was started in January, they came again in March, both times they did not have the materials necessary to complete the job. There is a problem with every window. I have tried to resolve this with Lowe's to no avail. Their customer is the worst I have ever experienced. The workmanship is absolutely horrible! Water is leaking into my home! What a rip off. I never expected this from Lowe's.

    Bought a whole house generator in May 2018 and it hasn't worked from the 1st day it was Installed. 1st Installer claims that a wire was missing and drained the battery. Then we are told a sensor is bad. Call Generac to find out that the wire is not sent with the unit, Installer to purchase it and that the Installer is not Generac certified. Great right, Generac suggests we get a certified person out to look over the Install and generator, so we do. Well the list of things that are wrong with the Install, is a mile long. This Installer had no clue what he was doing and Corporate keeps pushing me off for weeks now. They keep saying this Installer is certified, um no Generac would have him in the system. We called 3 different times to Generac to see if we got the same answers.

    To top it off the generator is too small for the house and will not run the whole house, like we wanted. Again Noah at corporate keeps pushing us off for weeks, even after sending him all the pictures and paperwork of all the things wrong and the print out that it's the wrong size generator. Noah keeps saying he has to talk to CPO and area Install Management. Really? So now we are without a working generator for 3 months now. Complete joke this company is. We found out that Lowe's does not have to hire certified Installers, they just have to pass a drug and background check to be a contractor, even though they advertise the Installers are. Run. Don't use Lowe's for any Installation projects.

    I purchased 5 fans online and received confirmation/order details. I went to Lowe's of Alexandria Customer Service Desk to pick up fans per online notice that they were ready. I gave Tracey my confirmation numbers. T told me the fans were not at the CSD and I had not purchased the fans and that’s why they were not at the CSD. I asked how I could have confirmation numbers if I had not made the purchases. T turned around, walked away, took a seat, and started doing something. Not facing me she said, "I can still hear you." I refused to talk. T turned around and said, "I had to go get the fans, bring them to the CSD and buy them."

    I asked what I was supposed to put them in or on. T told me to walk back to the fan department and someone would figure it out. I returned with the fans and attempted (multiple times) to tell my truth of the online purchase but Tracey kept cutting me off even when I asked her to stop. Finally, I spoke with the manager and he confirmed that Tracey was rude and wrong about me not paying.

    I ordered a wood treatment product I wanted online from Lowe’s as they showed a 3-day delivery date which was faster than Amazon, Home Depot, etc. My order was confirmed via email, but there was no shipping tracking number ever given or any further communication. After 9 different attempts to find out what happened with my order over the next 6 days (online, phone, email), I finally got a manager who said that I can expect the item in 4 more days. There was never any notice online or via email of a delay. If I had known the item would take 10 days rather than 3, I would have canceled my order and placed a new order elsewhere. Now I am still waiting with no assurance that I’ll even get the item after 10 days. Horrible communication about order status and delays. Lowe’s says they have no control over when their suppliers' ship. My advice, do not believe any delivery date you are see on Lowe’s website and go elsewhere.

    I purchased a Hotpoint washer and dryer set in November of 2015, and I also purchased the product replacement plan that was good for 3 years up until November of 2018. Well, the wash machine flooded my home in August 3rd of 2018, so a repair tech was sent to fix the problem. He ran no tests, didn't believe me when I told him what was going on with the wash machine or where it was leaking from. So he ordered some random parts based off what he thought was the problem. I admit those did temporarily fix the problem for about 2 weeks. Well all the sudden on August 20th 2018, the washer flooded my home again. I called the same repair company that had just recently serviced the wash machine to come and check it out because the problem obviously wasn't fixed correctly.

    When they arrived, he guessed as to which new part he could put in once again and 2 days later installed that part. Well, after testing the wash machine out, he determined that the most recent part didn't fix the problem either and called his company to see what to do about it. Lowe's called me within 10 minutes and wanted to buy back my wash machine for what I paid for it, minus the amount I paid for the warranty. I agreed because there were no other options they could give me at that time. Today is September 7th 2018, and I have still yet to receive the "Merchandise card" which is supposed to be the form the buyback comes in. Every time I call Lowe's, I get a different answer as to when it was sent out. Their customer service is horrible and they do not REPLACE the products that you purchase a REPLACEMENT plan for.

    When a very large company cancels an online order due to running out of that item, even though item was considered "in stock" at time of order, one would think that this huge company would automatically search nearby inventories to get that out of stock item. In fact a neighboring store did have that stock. When calling Lowe's two separate customer service representatives stated that "it is not our practice to search other store inventories". Then I got on an online chat with someone that stated that Lowe's can check other store inventories but that it is a different number. What a sad way to run a huge business. Maybe it's time that people started going back to the brick & mortar stores for the best business. There is a reason Lowe's has an overall rating of 1 out of 5 stars.

When I finally spoke to the local sales rep he stated he couldn’t do anything and contacted the corporate office. The corporate office did not get back to me until I called several times. After two months nothing has gotten done and I am told again that the local installer will get back to me, again. This is the same local installer who wanted an additional $1500 from me.

    I purchased a riding mower from Lowe's in April 2018. I didn't purchase an extended warranty because for 1. It was a brand new mower. 2. I was told by one of Lowe's employee that it was a great mower. Now after a few months of purchase the mower and after the return period the mower is making popping sounds, and noises unheard of from a new mower. The front is leaning to one side and the steering is very loose. There is very little control in the steering! I filed a dispute with the company and it was denied.

    I also received a handwritten letter with very bad penmanship telling me that I did not get an extended warranty and Zi would have to take it to a shop and if it was not a manufacturer defect I will be liable for the cost. I have closed my account with Lowe's and will never ever shop there again! In my opinion and my experience this mower is suitable for selling. This product should be taken off the market. A good amount of money just given away. If this mower is giving this many problems after a few months what really is the quality of this machine?! One star only because I have to. I wouldn't refer this s product to my worst enemy!

    Yesterday, we went to Lowe's and saw 1 "washer/dryer storage drawer" selling for $10 at clearance area. Wow, we were so surprise "why so cheap", and figured out it's damaged. But, it's still working OK. So, we decided to buy it. Now, there was the problem at cashier at check out. They were as surprise as us when saw the price written on ads. Then, after discussing in group, they decided that DON'T sell this with the price on Ads for $10, and adjusted the price for 75% off original price which is about $270. The manager with the face "nothing guilty or ashamed" to ask us "buy it or not"? This is what you guys make deals and treats to customer? You guys are NOT honest, and hurt feelings to customers.

    Lowe's uses Synchrony Bank for their credit Card Services so you are forced to deal with two companies when trying to resolve credit or charge issues. Example: To see your statement you have to get on the Lowe's Credit Card site and download the statements from Synchrony. But to review your actual charges, you have to call or visit a different Lowe's website. I'm not even sure where or who to call to make a complaint about charges: Lowe's says call Synchrony. Synchrony says call Lowe's.

    To make matters worse, Lowe's lowered my credit limit by $1,000 without warning. I called Lowe's to find out why and, you guessed it, they say to call Synchrony. Called Synchrony and they told me I had to wait for a letter in the mail. DO NOT GET A LOWE'S CREDIT CARD!!! Better to use one of the major credit cards if you're going to make a purchase at Lowe's or, better yet, shop at Home Depot instead.

    We purchased Lowe's white vinyl fencing. We needed some additional parts as we are installing ourselves as one nice thing was that online orders are honored with military discount. That was the only good thing that I can say about Lowe's. Received a call from the W Philly store stating that all items were in stock and ready except for one item. That one item we were able to get from our local store in NJ. Therefore we asked them to cancel the one item and ship the rest.

    To make a long story short I have 19 post holes dug in my yard a week ago just waiting on the delivery which we found out yesterday the most critical item to start the job is on backorder and won't be in from supplier to that store until 9/11. Mind you delivery to store not my home So betting it will take another week for us to get the material making it mid-Sept. Needless to say after hours on the phone talking to more people than I care to... There is no resolution. No offer to drop ship the items, no offer to provide a discount. NOTHING. Worse customer service I have ever experienced from a store. We had considered having them come pick up their stuff and reimburse us the over 2k we put out but my fear of them screwing that up is high.

    I will NEVER EVER purchase from Lowe's again. No sense of responsibility, no sense of urgency, lack of follow thru and follow up, terrible customer service, no availability to customers and no accountability. Escalated a complaint to their corporate and then filed a complaint with the BBB. With my husband being in the military we work projects around his schedule and this long weekend where we thought we'd get stuff done is a bust. Not to mention the vacation day I took off and the cost to rent an auger and tiller to prepare our lawn for this big job is money and time I will not get back.

    I recently bought a new home and decided to use Lowe's to install blinds. When I got to the store there was no one in the dept and I waited forever for someone to come walk by to assist me. Finally someone came by but he didn't work in this area. He paged someone that could possibly help but she never came. Apparently she was on her lunch break. I left my name and number around 1 pm or so to have her call me so that I could come back and talk about my purchase. And she called at 3:30 pm and said she would be leaving around 4 pm. REALLY??? And the only other person who could possibly help was on medical leave. After going back and forth several times I finally got measurements for windows on a Thursday and was told I could go back in store on Saturday to order blinds.

    I went to the store on Saturday and was told no one in that department worked or was working so I would have to come back. I IMMEDIATELY asked to see the manager and to have my account transferred out of this unorganized store. She said no need. She would handle it. I told her my measurements should be in, as it turned out they were sent to person on MEDICAL LEAVE. The Store Manager located the contractors and they sent measurements to her email. No one called me back to come and pick out blinds so I went back to the store and yet again there was no one to officially help me and I didn't want to miss the sale that was ending in a few days so I was not leaving until I ordered them.

    One young lady did assist with another co-worker and blinds were paid for and ordered. Days went on and I called back to see what the procedure was when the blinds came in. This is when I found out that the blinds would come in and someone would call me. So another week goes by and I get a call from the same young lady who ask me if I had someone to install the blinds. I was puzzled because I paid and they stated I was all set. She continues to tell me that, "NO MA'AM. You have to pay the installation fee or they will not have them installed." She stated this would be around $65 dollars or so. I left work and took the money down there immediately and was told on NO MA'AM by another employee that it's going to be $99. I was just told by another employee this was not the case. So now I'm paying an additional $99 on top of the $800 I just paid. Which isn't a problem if they would get their procedures together.

    I guess this is due to no one expect this ONE person on leave that knows how to operation this particular area. So I paid and left the store. So roughly days later I get home and there are several HUGE boxes outside my door. I was NOT told that they would be just dropping them off at my door, no tracking number or anything to ensure someone was home. So I call the corporate number and they proceeded to tell me that I have to call the store who will then call the contractor who will then call me to set up a time to install the blinds. OMG... how convoluted and insane is this?

    So now I had to call the store back to get the ball rolling. At the end of the day the contractors were amazing!!! They came in and installed roughly 9 windows within 2 hours. The blinds are very nice and I have gotten compliments on them. I also love them myself. Now would I use Lowe's again? I'm not 50% sure. They made my moving into my new home stressful and I didn't enjoy the experience as moving into a new home with new products and finishing should be fun and exciting. The lack of communication and understaffing left me horribly displeased with this enterprise.

    It is with great sadness that I write this post. Lowe's have lied, and lied, and lied some more. Today is Aug 29th. We contracted with Lowe's Home Improvement to replace our roof with a GAF certified roof because of the warranty. We paid 6000.00 total to have it professionally done on our home... We could of went with any fly by night roofer and paid half the cost but we thought, if we hire a professional we would get a professional job done...especially when you spend thousands of dollars. My husband and I have depended on Lowe's for all of our home improvement needs for many years, BUT NO MORE!!!

    Look out Home Depot. Here I come (This is not the case and I am 50 shades of mad). When the contractor that Lowe's hired to replace our roof did the job he came out and measured the roof for the exact amount of supplies and only to find out later that day they ran out of material half way through the job and ended up stopping for the night and didn't cover the roof (yep it rained) and now we have issues on our roof. We have been in contact with Lowe's corporate representative and calling the head manager at Lowe's and wrote to the CEO of Lowe's.

    Now they want me to spend more money to hire someone else to come out and take off a couple of shingles and replace them with new ones so I can send them into GAF to be tested. We don't believe it is the shingles but we believe it's damaged from where they didn't cover the roof that night and it rained on the decking boards to cause the warping and discoloration. Due to the way both parties are pointing the finger who can we trust? We need help to get Lowe's to fulfill the terms of the contract. Because we are not a satisfy customer due to our roof looking worse now than it did 14 years old. We have sent pictures to Lowe’s consumer care at corporate headquarters and they have done nothing but talk. They refuse to answer our questions and our phone conversations cover the same complaint every time without any concrete progress. Our home sit around a cul-de-sac so it sticks out like sore thumb.

    Had a sales rep come out on 6/7/18 for a fence & installation quote. Ask how long it would take to install the fence & was told they were 4 weeks out & I was ok with that so fence was purchased & everything was scheduled. Subcontractor came out to remeasure the yard on 06/12/18, asked him what date the fence would be installed & he told me 7/6/18 which was around the 4 week mark that the Lowe's sales rep told me so ok great! During the next few weeks there was no communication from Lowe's or the subcontractor. July 6th comes and no one shows up at the house so I call my Lowe's "Project Coordinator." My call goes directly to voicemail so I leave a message. I give it 24 hrs & hear nothing back so I call again and again. My call goes straight to voicemail & another message is left. This pattern continues for 4 days and no one calls me back.

    I email my sales rep 7/10/18 who then informs me that my "Project Coordinator" is no longer employed with Lowe's & I was assigned a new "Project Coordinator". He gives me the new name & phone # & tells me to call her since he's currently on vacation. I call the new "Project Coordinator" & again my calls go directly to voicemail, messages were left, & no one contacted me back. Frustrated I call Lowe's customer service on 7/11/18 to see what the ** is going on. They have no clue & ask me to call the subcontractor. I refuse to do so because that's not my job. It's theirs! They conference call the subcontractor & he's out to lunch... Of course he is! He'll call me back when he gets in.

    About 10 minutes later the subcontractor calls me back. (At least I got a call back from someone right?) He proceeds to inform me that Lowe's had an issue with my order due to the fired "Project Coordinator" (seems like more people should be fired for incompetence) & that due to that & weather my fence installation would need to be changed to 8/29/18. Ok I understand, it's been really rainy and I want my fence installed properly. On 08/28/18 Lowe's delivers my fence & materials in huge pallets left on my driveway. GREAT! Tomorrow my fence will finally be installed! Nope today is 8/29/18 & no one shows up to install the fence.

    I call the subcontractor who tells me that he has me scheduled for 9/6/18 & doesn't know where I got a schedule date of 8/29/28. I tell him that I have an email from them telling me this! He asks who the email was from & when I tell him. He apologizes & says that that person is no longer with their company. OMFG!!! SERIOUSLY? So now I have huge pallets of expensive fencing materials in my driveway that I have to guard with my life for almost an entire week to ensure that no one tries to steal them because my garage is full of crates of cement. This is just inexcusable & highly unprofessional! Once my fence is installed (hopefully next week but I doubt it) I am cutting up my Lowe's card & never using them again!

    Updated on 12/05/2018: I have been speaking with a Customer Service Representative since August 2018 trying to get my deck fix. I have only been getting the run around and realize today they have no attention of fixing my deck. He calls me faithfully every time. He said he will if not available he will leave a message. They sent someone out in August an expert in building decks, he took pictures and made recommendations to me and Lowe’s. I was told once they was waiting for the pictures, then the planning material department for prices to replace the deck. I was told they will replace the deck but wanted to know if the city pass the inspection on the deck.

    I found the information out and gave him the information. I was told today that it was too costly for Lowe’s to replace the deck, and because the city pass the inspection they will only replace a few boards. My question to him was first of all you never sent anyone from Lowe’s to tell me what you were going to replace, because this was bad wood from the being and more than a couple of boards needed to be replace. The Rep then ask me to send him pictures again of my deck he never receive them, after almost five months.

    I told him he needs to send someone from Lowe’s to take the pictures again, because I realize that when I provided him with information he would use it as a reason to keep, from resolving the issues with the deck. When I ask him, "I thought you was going to replace the deck." He told me he can change his mind. It’s okay for me to pay almost $5000.00 for deck that is wrapping, splitting and start to go rotten in less than a year, but cost too much for Lowe’s to make good on their warranty per the Rep. I will never do business with Lowe’s again. The poor customer service I went through to get the deck built, is the same service I am getting from executive customer service department.

    Updated on 09/10/2018: I finally receive a called from Global Interior after filing a complaint with Consumers Affairs. This is what happen. 08/29 Global Interior.

Will call before he came. Never called or showed up or cancel the appointment for another time. This was the holiday weekend so I waited until that Tuesday 09/04/2018, and called Global Interior back to see what happen. I spoke with a Racheal. Told me the appointment was on the schedule for Saturday 09/01/2018. I was off that day and was home until 3:00 PM. I was told she did not know what was going on and she will talk to Chad. I told her I was not surprise no one showed up, because this what I been dealing with for two and half months getting this deck built.

    Chad called me back left a message 09/05 at 7:31 PM. I was at work. I called Chad back that morning on 09/06/2018 spoke with him and set another appointment again for Saturday 09/08/2018. Same time. 9:00 to 10:30 AM. Will call me again before he came, but of course no call no show. I e-mailed Customer Care again. Told me I had to call 877-505-4923. They could not help me. Lowe's recommended this lumber to me. Said it was better and I paid extra money for the lumber. I even had Lowe's REPRESENTATIVE AND PROWOOD REPRESENTATIVE ALSO THE SUB CONTRACTOR out to my home, all at the same time, because I had concerns about the lumber. Lowe's Rep assured me that the contractor knew how to cut around the bad lumber, and had them to replace some. PROWOOD told me that was the spices of the wood.

    I put my trust in Lowe's because I had other Home Improvements with you. I called Lowe's this Morning. Was given a name and phone number, and the recording said that the person was out of the office until 10/05 to 10/25. Today is 09/10/2018, I also ask for a e-mailed address of the department that was to help me no response back with e-mail. How do you resolve a complaint and assign it to a person who is no longer with the company. I was told that this might be the only contractor they have to build deck in my area.

    Original Review: The sales Rep at Lowe's convince me to go with PROWOOD Dura wood to build my deck. Paid extra for wood. It took over two months to get build, Some wood was rotten and had to be sent back. Not even a year later wood is splinting and wrapping. I have contacted Lowe's Customer service and e-mail them. I was told not to e-mail anymore and was given two phone numbers to call. When I call everyone I speak to tell me something different. Do not ever use them for a big project. The contractor will not come back once Lowe's and contractor is paid. I live in Michigan and the lumber yard where they get the lumber from is almost two hours away so to replace I have to go thru Lowe's. I start contacting them in June 2018. E-mailed them Aug 14. They will respond to e-mail but no help.

    My wife and I are having a horrible customer experience with the Install Sales team at the Lowe's in Simi Valley, CA. On a handful of jobs (Floors, Carpeting, Window panels), the call back/follow through on status updates has been abysmal. Additionally, there have been botched appointments when the vendor stated a time to work on a project, but they came out at another time. Thus, my wife was stuck in a house during a recent heat wave. Also waiting to get an inspection report on our issue with the Pergo floors, which has not been received yet.

    The latest incident was forwarded to Lowe's, via my wife's email, on August 27 - This is to inform you that the arrival date of our panel blinds is now 10 days past the date you specified in your last email. Additionally, there has been no response to the Pergo flooring independent inspection, and that is also 7+ days past your specified date in the same email. No one has contacted us about any of these still outstanding issues. As of today, there has been no response from Lowe's - Simi Valley. Besides never stepping foot in the Simi Valley Lowe's store or any other Lowes facility, I will forward the same complaint to the BBB.

After a lot of work planting them,(they were 12 gallon containers and 12 feet high), I showed them to my neighbor who was watching the planting. He looked at the Sycamore and said you have anthracnose fungus infecting this tree. I spent hours on the computer reading up on this fungus and what it meant to the tree. It is incurable. With extensive maintenance and expense, the tree will still be deformed, have browned leaves and occasionally defoliate. I don't want to buy that kind of problem or spread the fungus into a new neighborhood.

    I went back to Lowe's and they said bring in the tree. I had brought in a 12 gallon container full of diseased leaves from the tree. That was about 90% of the leaves on the tree. I told them that I would not put a diseased tree back in my vehicle, filling it again with fungus spores. They could see from the leaves that it was diseased. I talked to a friend who is a world famous plant pathologist, and his advice was: Burn the tree, kill all the fungus, and buy a healthy tree. Also sanitize the ground where the tree was planted. But Lowe's just stonewalled me. They had me standing for 30 minutes to talk to a store manager, who never showed up.

    Basically, they knew it was a diseased tree, or should have known, since they are in the nursery business. What they should have said was: "OK we see most of the leaves are diseased, please destroy the tree", or if for some unknown reason, they need to have a diseased tree back, they would come and dig it up. You don't suppose they intend to sell it to some other unsuspecting pigeon? More to this story later. By the way if anyone is interested, they have three more infected Sycamores for sale.

    Custom order tile was delivered broken three times. The guys came to install it and it was broken. After an hour on the phone with Lowe's we had to bring all the materials in the house, they said they would re-order a custom order tile again and the guys left. I’ve taken off work to be here for installation and the products delivered are faulty again. We used to Lowe’s for some window insulation. It was a horrible experience. Decided to give them one more try. But I’m not even going to shop there anymore.

    Spent $10,000 on a windows and doors project. The supplies were delivered so we called to see about install. We called 3 times and emailed just as many with no response. Finally 2 weeks later we get a call to do the install 3 weeks later. Upon install, it was found that we needed more stuff to the tune of $1700! At this point we had no choice because the install was partially done. We reached out to complain and were completely ignored by corporate and the project manager for our project. There was a replacement screen needed which we only actually got by showing up at the store and 2 weeks later got an email to see if we got it. When I replied back with my discontent, the project manager simply replied with, "Great, thank you for choosing Lowe's."

    In 2015 I contracted Lowe's to completely redo my bathroom. I paid over $25,000. Everything on the surface looked cosmetically beautiful. However, my showerhead control valve needed to have a cartridge replaced. When I called my licensed plumber he indicated a simple job. However when he took the valve faceplate off underneath was a mess. According to the Moen install instructions there should have been a 3" X 3" square hole to allow access to the valve and its internal flow controls. The plumber installed behind a metal plate disallowing access to internal controls and the tile guy completed only allowing providing a 1.5" X 3" access hole.

    The plumber did not have enough space to simply install the cartridge and thus the simple job took over 1.5 hours. When I called Lowe's to complain they said I should have caught the problem during the final walkthrough and took no responsibility even though I thought that their project management and general contractor (which I paid Lowe's for) should have had my back. When I asked to speak to a supervisor they refused. I am very disappointed and will never recommend them to anyone.

    The Lowe’s sales guy came to our house and all seemed promising. We paid $4,000 for a fence and weeks later, we still have the supplies sitting in our front yard. When half of the fence was installed and nothing else was happening, my husband tracked down the supplier through the installer and they said the wrong parts were ordered. At this point, my husband has moved the pallet that killed our new grass in the front yard and taken pictures of parts and sent it directly to the supplier in hopes that we’ll get some resolve and FINALLY get a new fence. Lowe’s being the project manager or one-stop-shop is a huge sham. They clearly don’t have their stuff figured out. I even tried calling to get some resolve and their customer service said we’d have to take it up at a nearby store - even though we never went to a store to make the purchase.

Till this day August 20th they have still not been successful at delivering it to our house. They scheduled the first delivery for August 16th and no one showed up, then called to rescheduled after one of us already took time off work to be at the house to receive the dryer. Then they rescheduled for Sunday August 19 (1 whole week after buying after they advertise next day delivery) the truck shows up with 2 washers and no dryer.

    They had to leave as that was clearly NOT our order. I called the store countless times as well as their main number and got it rescheduled by their manager Deidra for tomorrow August 21st after 5:30 pm. And we just received a text message confirmation that they will come at 11:30 am... I MEAN FOR REAL!

    Lowe's subcontracts installation. When incorrectly installed the carpet develops rolls and ridges. They brag about one year warranty but many inadequate carpet installations become apparent after the one year in the form of rolls and ridges. My carpet, that I paid over $8,000.00, developed ridges after 15 months. I called the company and they were unwilling to budge on the one year warranty. Buy carpet from a reputable flooring company that stands behind their installations. They have better installation as it is their livelihood. Carpet is only one part of the Lowe's industry and they do not care if the carpet develops flaws. Very good carpet but now I have to hire someone come in a re-stretch the carpet. Do not allow them in your home to install carpet.

Then told my mother that they didn't know about that. Tried cutting a deal with my mom to pay 500 dollars cash for subfloor but to not tell Lowe's. My mom called store and they arranged for us to pay for subflooring. The installers then say they don't want to do subfloor... after I paid the additional 800$$$$ for subfloor. They left the site leaving Us with subflooring as our living room floor!!! All our furniture was moved to the kitchen and den. Corporate only apologized and wanted us to wait 3 days before another installer would come. Horrible and is still not resolved.

    I can't review the product since I still don't have it. Ordered $8,000 in appliances July 8, and told they would be delivered on 7/23. Received a call the night before and was told they had just shipped from the "manufacturer" and would be received in the Central FL Warehouse on 7/24, and would take an additional 7-8 days to reach the store for delivery. Spoke with the appliance manager who claimed that ALL special orders take at least 2 weeks to ship to them. So obviously the associates don't know what they are talking about, or are trained to lie so they can make the sale. Received a call to schedule home delivery on 8/2. All 4 products were delivered, all 4 products had damage or missing parts, or just didn't work. Range dented on the side, refrigerator missing an herb drawer, microwave vent fan does not work, dishwasher badly dented at the back of the tub.

    Returned the dishwasher and waited 2 weeks for the new one to be delivered. I was assured by the appliance manager that the installers opened cartons and checked product before they left the store to ensure there was no damage. Installer shows up on 8/17, takes out old unit BEFORE he ever opened the carton and looked at the new dishwasher. The damage kept the door from opening properly so second unit is on its way back. I will be demanding Lowe's pick up ALL appliances and give me full credit so that I can purchase from a reputable appliance dealer. So once again another lie from a Lowe's employee, added to an installer that says they never check product before they leave the store, and that they always have damaged dishwashers. Yet he was not smart enough to check it before he removed the old unit. Complete incompetence and the last I will step foot into a Lowe's store.

    My husband and I purchased a house last yr in 2017, we wanted to do house improvement/upgrade in the new house so we did some research in carpet purchase and narrowed down Lowe's. However Lowe's did not meet our expectation at all, it's so frustrating that it's been 5 months now and the issue is not close to resolution. We bought carpet from Lowe's at Raleigh store around 7 months ago, contractor came in the morning, after doing installation in the whole house at the end of the day they informed us that there are two different shades in the carpet and that someone will contact us shortly since contractor will report this issue with pictures and report.

    Since then our struggle is still on, no one of course contact us and we are at point that we are literally being pass from one team to another, from different people from store manager to CPD and now to sales installation team to get this resolve and yet there is no follow up and status of what is still same. It's sad that we trust and choose Lowe's for the business and paid upfront $6000. This was absolutely not expected from one of the reputed company although I am convinced now I should rather warn my friends, family, co-workers and neighbors not to purchase from Lowe's. Lowe's contractor lied to us and informed us about the two different colors after the installation was done. After we raised the concern there is no satisfactory resolution Lowe's is offering.

    Updated on 10/05/2018: Lowe's took close to 9 months resolve our claim in their interest even though it was 100% their mistake for a job done. The quality of job done was so poor so it failed in independent 3 party inspection. Even though Lowe's did not entertain us the way should be. We have 150+ emails of follow ups and spoke to dozen people during that time. I recently purchased home and quickly learnt that always go for local store (avoid giants like Lowe's) because they would appreciate your business and willing to satisfy customer. May be a little more extra cost but much better than dealing with giants which you cannot do much about.

The store salesman in Binghamton came to the site and in my wife's presence said the work was terrible.

    Since then he has refused to return phone calls. We contacted the store manager and he referred us to the Lowe's corporate person who was responsible. After agreeing to make repairs using a new contractor, she asked the one who did the bad installation to make repairs. Since that conversation she has refused to return phone calls or emails. The old contractor supposedly made repairs, but pictures that we obtained today indicate that the same problems exist. We have been in contact with a Lowe's corporate representative. He has promised action in phone calls over the past three weeks, but nothing has been done. We need help to get Lowe's to fulfill the terms of the contract.

    We have sent pictures to Lowe’s consumer care at corporate headquarters and they have done nothing but talk.

    Lowe's Home Improvement. I am at a Loss for words when I try to explain how disappointed I am with this company. I signed up for a deck and a fence install in April of this year. What a mistake! Obviously these are high ticket additions to my home, and spent thousands of dollars on with them. I was told EVERYTHING would be completed by June 19. After the gentleman came into my home and gave us a great presentation on the products and procedures, we felt we couldn’t pass it up. Silly us. About a month goes by without a word from anyone from Lowe's Home Improvement. We were assured there was a project director that would handle everything and anything we needed.

    We called said director numerous times with no answer or response to numerous left messages. Finally, this guy returns a call... mind you it’s been a month and project was said to be completed in 2. He proceeds to tell us everything is in line for our fence... I ask, “What about the deck? I DONT HAVE ANYTHING HERE ABOUT A DECK”. Awesome. Well, finally he gets it together and assures is everything is on schedule. We get a call about a delivery, which we assume is the materials. Great. Driver comes, can’t believe it’s a house he’s delivering to. Refuses to take materials to our backyard. Finally, I convince him there’s nowhere else for them to go... Proceeds to damage our neighbors utility box in their yard.

    Week goes by, I hear nothing from anyone about an install. No returned calls yet again. Eventually, the deck installer calls and says he’s backed up. Not Lowe's Home Improvement, the installer. Says he might get it done by July 4. Which thankfully it was. Now, all I need is a fence! Of course I’ve called this director, the store, store mgr, 1-800 # numerous times. No one has a clue about anything. Now, I start getting calls about deliveries... I think ok maybe stuff for the fence? Delivery comes, more decking? MY DECK HAS BEEN DONE FOR 2 WEEKS! Sent it back. Get a bill in the mail for the delivery. This happened 3-4 times. Trying to deliver more decking when it’s been completed.

    I’m confused as to how this company is still in business at this point. Finally the fence installer comes... His 2nd day he’s there for an hour and leaves. Apparently the concrete that’s been sitting in my backyard for 4 months now has hardened. Go figure! He packs up and is gone. No word from Lowe’s, installer informs us via phone call. Gate for the fence is damaged as well and can’t be installed. We are told gate and concrete need to be ordered. 2 weeks go by, not a phone call or anything. Call store mgr, he can’t believe it wasn’t delivered yet and will get right on it. Another week passes, NOTHING. Get a delivery call... finally! "Just kidding. We have more DECKING for you." This is a bad joke at this point, right!?

    I call the 800 # and finally get someone with a brain. Directs me to their install dept, my gate and concrete were at my house in 2 days. Really? It was THAT “hard?” They were supposed to pick up the bad cement... Contractor wound up taking it, not Lowe’s. Today, finally, my gate was put on completing my project. Or so I thought... Go to plug into my outlet on my new deck... no power. If I was this bad at my job I’d be fired ten times over. If I could rip all this stuff off my house and get my money back... I WOULD! I’ve yet to get a call about my satisfaction from anyone. #lowesblows

    First of all, I can't believe that a company this large has this bad of a rating. I am just baffled because you would think that by using large companies like this, you would get the best service, especially when you spend thousands of dollars. Anyway, just don't go through them. In a nutshell, I paid for a generator and waited over 6 months to have it fully installed.

    We signed the contract on December 12th 2017. Upon meeting with Jim our "Project Specialist", we were told we would have our generator around February 2018. It didn’t arrive on my property until March 23rd. That entire time, not one person called me to tell me the status of the generator. I called Bart from Lowe's, who was my assigned project manager, 3x and left voicemails and he never once returned my calls. Finally, when I got a hold of Jim after contacting him twice via email and then got a hold of him via phone, is when someone finally called me from the actual installation company.

    The lady from the install company was very clear with me that the delay was on Lowe's end and that the generator was NOT in their possession until mid-March. Again, not one person called me to tell me what was going on. After speaking to Jim he stated that the generator WAS in their possession. I am at a loss as to who is at fault but regardless, someone dropped the ball here and it certainly was not me as the paying customer.

    Finally, everything was complete in June. Every service person sent out to the home was very professional - we have nothing to complain about that. BUT we had 2 storms since I initially signed the contract on 12/12 and we went without power both times for over 24 hours and needed to stay in a hotel. Can you imagine how frustrating this has been for me with two young children at home?

    I honestly thought that by going through Lowe's directly for this large purchase, that I was making the best decision because I didn’t want to get tossed around by other companies. Unfortunately, that was not the case here. I expressed my concerns with this entire process to Lowe's Corporate in hopes that this process gets better and no other customer goes through what I have gone through. I got a reply back and they offered me a $300 check. That was on June 7th. I have YET to receive any check. I have contacted BART, which is who I ended up dealing with again after my complaint to corporate, and he has never once answered my emails asking for an update on the check. Can you imagine? This is just embarrassing. Get it together Lowe's. You've lost a customer for life.

    My issue with the company comes strictly from the Lowe's Service Installer (Service Pro's) that are out of Kingsport or Church Hill, TN. After great customer service from the store in Abingdon, VA we decided to go with the Lowe's Installers to get the job done. The company that they used was Service Pro's and they gave us a date and time to be present (You have to be present) which was a Friday between 9AM-11AM. So they call 30 minutes before their window closes and says that they can't make it and it will be later on in the evening... No time given to me to be home.

    The inconvenience of this is huge when you take off of work or burn a vacation day (Or what was supposed to be half a day) for them to say they can't make it. No one wants to lose money when paying for a service. Which is exactly what has happened to us. This directly reflects on Lowe's due to it being Lowe's Installation "experts". Dissatisfied! I've contacted the store and they were going to contact them and let me know something back a couple hours in and I've not heard anything at all... I've called the Lowe's Installation "experts" Service Pro's directly multiple times but just get a voicemail. After calling the store again, Management has made multiple attempts to contact the installers and cannot make contact! I appreciate everything that the Abingdon Store has done to help me but the Installers have given them a black eye on this one.

Asking the young man there, if they had flagpoles, he went right to his phone, for what reason, I'm not sure, he then said, "No, you have to go online." I ask him where the flags were at, he point to the garden area, and stated, "In that area." I walked about 40 foot in that direction, and there they were, a complete flagpole set, $129.00. I pick it up and walked right back to him, at the Customer Service desk, and stated, "You should know what your store sells, it should be part of your job," and walked away. He shouted out, to have a nice day... RIGHT, I thought...

When kids with no knowledge of professionalism are working in customer service, representing a company of this magnitude, have the ignorance, to yell at a customer, TO HAVE A NICE DAY! because he was a **, and did not have the proper knowledge of what was available in the facility, that employs them, too bad for LOWE'S.

    LOWE'S, you should test your staff to ensure they know what your store sells. Well, as long as a phone will help you, why use your BRAIN! Lowe's needs to hire phone geeks, not personnel with hardware knowledge... lol. The flagpole installed easy, my relatives are very happy... The purchase was a joke. BOTH STAFF MEMBERS KNOW WHO THEY ARE... REAL JOKERS. BUT, you got my money... and you can shove it up your ___! POOR SERVICE. Make America great again, fire bad employees.

    We contracted with Lowe's to do our kitchen remodel. This started in February 2018 when we selected cabinetry, flooring, countertops, backsplash, appliances and lighting and paid for it all in full. We did a full gut of our kitchen in which everything was removed down to the studs in some areas. The new cabinets and appliances were delivered in mid-March 2018 however, the demo of the kitchen did not begin until mid-April 2018 because the contractor was not available until then. This meant we had to store everything in our garage for over a month preventing us from parking in our garage. Finally when the demo began, everything was torn out of our kitchen leaving us without a working kitchen.

    By April 20, 2018 we were without a functioning kitchen. Then the contractor would show up one or two days then we wouldn't see him or his crew for days. Finally, after complaining to Lowe's, the contractor requested a meeting around May 17, 2018. At that time, he advised that he did not have the manpower to return to our job until May 27, 2018 at the earliest. During that meeting I asked if I could find a different contractor on my own to finish the work. I was advised that I could do that and that is what I did. All was running smoothly during the early part of June 2018 until we discovered damage to some of the cabinets I had ordered. However, since we had essentially fired the Lowe's contractor it was clear that Lowe's did not want to have anything to do with us.

    The damaged cabinets were reordered which took an additional 4 weeks arriving in mid July 2018. However, the order was not complete! The company failed to replace all the damaged cabinets. I was missing ONE cabinet and one piece of crown molding that was supposed to have been in the July order. So they were ordered AGAIN with an expected arrival date of August 6, 2018. It is now August 8, 2018 and have not received this final shipment. I received a call on August 6, 2018 advising that we had a delivery scheduled for August 7, 2018. Lowe's delivery never showed up! And since I'm out of town for the next week and a half I will not get my delivery until August 20, 2018.

    While the delay of these last few items has not prevented me from using the kitchen it is quite frustrating that we are still waiting for the final pieces to finally finish our kitchen because Lowe's delivery just did not show up. This kitchen remodel was expected to take 6-8 weeks. While I know not to believe the estimated time of completion that I'm told, I certainly did not expect this to take nearly 5 months. We were without a functioning kitchen for 8 weeks, which also was not our expectation. I can honestly say that I will NEVER use Lowe's for any type of home repair work or installation. I do not trust them nor do they place customer service as a high priority. They should just get out of the any type of installation or remodeling services because they are clearly not equipped to handle the task. I will never recommend Lowes and will steer people away from ever using their services.

I went home. Customer service says, "Yes you can return or exchange for free and/or get full refund."

    I get all my paperwork together. Return to store. They see it all. Copies of their return policies and they say ok. Will come get the dishwasher and give full refund. Will see how it goes.

    Contracted with Lowe's to replace gutters on my home. The work was shoddy and incomplete. Leaf guards were left off in areas and only partially installed in others. Significant amounts of rain water run underneath the gutters and down the sides of the house in some areas. Several hidden gutters on an older section of the house were not tied into downspouts. It was obvious the Lowe's representative had never inspected the installation. When photos of these shortcomings were shown to Lowe's in April, their representative said they would 'get back with me'. (Probably a Lowe's euphemism for "screw you".)

    It’s unbelievable that it’s even possible for a company to have a 1 star rating with over 500 reviews - how are these guys still in business? Anyway, steer clear. They just don’t have their act together. I placed a phone order for 4 expensive appliances. I just assumed Lowe’s and Home Depot were pretty much the same, and I had a 10% off Lowe’s coupon, so I ordered from them. The ordering experience was fine, and the rep was friendly. The nightmare began the next day. I got a call from one local store that said they had 2 of the appliances and needed to schedule delivery, but that another store had the other 2. That’s a little strange, and a small inconvenience, but I get it.

    I scheduled a delivery date with the first store. Then I get a call from another store with the other two appliances. I set a delivery date with them. Then, I get a call from a third store, that says the second store didn’t have the items, so now they were scheduling the delivery. Ok, really annoying, but I scheduled the delivery again. Then I get a fourth call from that same store, telling me they also don’t have one of the items, and because my order was already transferred once, they don’t have the ability to transfer again, so my only option is to cancel the fridge and reorder it, which will allow them to forward it to a third store that may have it.

    This is beyond unacceptable, and Samsung is running a promo where you get a gift card if you buy 4 appliances on the same receipt, so reordering would void that gift card promo. I explain that, and the rep tells me there’s nothing she can do, I have to reorder it or the item will sit in limbo and never get delivered. At that point, I called the corporate 800 number. They told me the fridge was discontinued and unavailable at all (by the way, it’s still available on their website, I just tried to order it to see if it gave an error... nope).

    She tells me I can order a different Fridge or just cancel the order. I cancelled the entire order at that point, because I have no more confidence in them. I called Home Depot, placed the EXACT same order, for the exact same price, they honored the 10% Lowe’s coupon as a price match, and they confirmed a delivery date for ALL items, confirmed they are all in stock, and all being delivered from the same place. Needless to say, Lowe’s and Home Depot are nowhere near the same... Don’t get suckered by a coupon like I did! Just show Home Depot and they’ll honor it and give you much better service.

    I have been in contact with Lowe's “corporate office” several times regarding a privacy fence installation since 6/26/18. My project coordinator, Cynthia, has only returned my call once and that was only because her supervisor was CC'd in on an email. I called customer service on 7/10/18 due to Lowe’s putting me on the incorrect promotion. I was given 6 months with 0% interest when it should have been 36 months with 3.99%. The installer, Zack, is deplorable and never reaches out to provide ETAs of his workers, himself or updates impacting the job. The supplies for my initial 7/19/18 installation were not delivered, a 2nd date, 7/31/18 was provided. My fence was left unfinished. The sales associate, Jeffrey/Alex + an additional person (Sam I believe) saw the unfinished product (I have pictures).

    Additionally, I asked for a full fence and was only given 3/4. I gladly paid $2,500 on my debit and the rest on my Lowe's card for a completed job. Because Sam and Jeffrey/Alex agreed with me they discounted the updated job. I spoke to Anthony today who rudely said that he doesn't see where I have been inconvenienced and advised my new supplies will be delivered 8/21/18 for a 8/23/18 job. I have to be home so the installers have access to a power supply, I am a full time working, single parent and have to take off to do this. This is ridiculous. If it isn't resolved, I will be going to my local media outlets and federal/state/local regulators.

He shoved her aside and insisted that she move her own furniture out of the way so he could get the washer through the front entrance. When she picked up the phone to call Lowe's to complain, he stood by her side and aggressively insisted that she sign delivery papers for approval. She was afraid for her safety.

    I have been very disappointed with Lowe's. The customer experience has declined significantly over the past couple of years. I have bought nearly all my appliances and in the past, when they said something would be delivered, it would be here. That is not the case anymore. I purchased a new refrigerator six weeks ago. It was scheduled for delivery today 8/5/2018. I made 5 calls to confirm delivery and all five times, I was told it would be today. I called last Friday and yesterday because no one called me to schedule a time slot. I was told on the Friday's call that someone would call Saturday.

    On Saturday's call, I was told that someone would call between 7-9pm. No one called. I called Lowe's at 11am on day of delivery and finally, someone said that there was not going to be a delivery because it never arrived at the warehouse. There is no information. No one can tell me when it will or even if it will arrive. I have been living out of mini fridge for the past 6 weeks. Going into the store, is not much better. I have had store associates walk away when they see a customer coming. I have been told that it's their break time and to find someone else to help me. There is rarely anyone around to assist. I think I will need to stick with Home Depot, as I seem to get a better level of service.

    I ordered a complete set of Bosch appliances from Lowe's. I initially thought I would need the microwave and dishwasher installed, but changed my mind and called back to let them know and to ship everything at once. On the day of delivery, only the refrigerator and the range showed up. When I called they told me they would need to arrange special delivery as I was having them installed. When I explained I had called and told them I was going to do the installation, they scheduled them for the following Saturday.

    At this point, I figured out the collective IQ I was dealing with and called back THREE TIMES during the week to confirm delivery. Friday evening, I received a call confirming delivery for Saturday. Late Saturday afternoon, with no appliances, I called the store and was told they didn't ship because they were going to be installed by Lowe's. Did you get that? After FOUR phone conversations confirming delivery and informing them I would do the installation, they still didn't get it. Literally, NOT ONE person I spoke with could be bothered to update my record.

    In their defense, the manager I spoke with gave me an additional discount, which is great. But...my appliances were scheduled for delivery today and guess what? They aren't on the truck because they couldn't find them! So, I've now burned THREE SATURDAYS waiting for appliances that still aren't here and now Lowe's has no idea when they will be delivered. PS - They dented the refrigerator during delivery and claim to have a replacement on order. I'm not holding my breath.

They were to deliver in about two weeks time, with the delivery service calling the night before or that morning to give a more exact time. The delivery service calls (very early) the scheduled delivery morning and informs me that there were "errors" on my form and it needed to be filled out again over the phone with them.

    So I proceeded to give the delivery service all the information I had already filled out on Lowe's online form previously and the driver said he needed to transfer my call to the head cashier so she could take my credit card information (which I had already provided online). The call gets cut off in the transfer process. I call Customer Service, and the first thing they ask for is the order number! (Wasn't that data in their online system?)

I have a bi-level, the living space is upstairs and downstairs, no basement. However come summer, the downstairs is hot and humid, I DID need vents. The 3rd party guys came out that did the initial install and said I needed Vents/Duct work to cool the WHOLE house. They quoted me an ADDITIONAL $3900 for two vents.

    We have had the a terrible experience with Lowe's. As we were searching for a company to put up a fence in our backyard, I wanted to use Lowe's because they have been a long time favorite of my parents. There were several people in my neighborhood who warned against us using Lowe's, but I wanted to give Lowe's the opportunity to prove my neighbors wrong. My husband scheduled the appointment for the Field Representative - Mr. ** to come out to our home to discuss measurements, fencing type, and pricing/financing. He came out and began outside to measure the yard - from the location that we desired to have the fence and he drew a sketch of the home and his measurements for the fencing company that Lowe's contracts to complete the build (NC Fencing Company) - whom today I was unable to even locate via Google...

    We went over the details of the contract and financing options. Included in the contract was a clearing and hauling fee, which was to cover a 4 foot clearing minus large trees or the rear border of the property. It was understood that one payment may be made on the fence prior to the installation and we were ok with that. We were advised that the build would take place around the 1st week of July; however, the fencing company advised that was not available. May I mention... the communication between Lowe's and their contractors is very poor. The fencing company advised that our build would take place on July 20th and that Lowe's would be delivering the materials for the build 48 hours prior (July 18th). I took off work to ensure I was available on the 18th for the delivery, and nothing ever came.

    We assumed that the build had been postponed since we had not heard from the fencing company nor Lowe's regarding our fence. On the morning of July 20th, I was awakened at the wee hours of the morning by the doorbell, as Lowe's was delivering the fence materials... unannounced. Later that morning, the fencing company arrived for the build. The fencing company was supposed to arrive between 8 am and 10 am per Lowe's; however, they did not arrive until closer to noon. Upon arrival, there were 2 guys in the truck. I immediately began to wonder how these two guys were going to clear our property and build the fence alone with very little equipment and obvious manpower. The young man driving the truck - who looked as if he was in high school - greeted me and came out to take a look at the materials and property.

    He immediately told me that there was not enough materials for the build and that they needed to return on the following morning to build the fence. I asked if there was enough material to BEGIN the build due to a very busy day I was going to have starting the following morning. He said that he would contact Lowe's for additional materials but that they were not going to be clearing the property, as we had included in our contract. I contacted my husband who got off work to come home and assist with any clearing that was needed for the fence to go on up and also contacted Mr. ** to come out and assist with the miscommunication between Lowe's and the fencing company. My husband came home and cut down 3 trees in the rear of the property per the fencing company's request... so that the fence could go behind the tree's locations.

    Mr. ** came and walked the property with the fencing company to confirm the location of the fence and he also advised that the clearing would be done to include all underbrush and haul away. Once Mr. ** left and the fencing company got to work, they neglected to complete the clearing and place the fence IN FRONT OF the location where my husband got off of work to come cut down the trees from. We contacted Mr. ** again and advised of the issue. There was not much that could be done, as the fence posts were already set in concrete. Mr. ** called me with one of the store managers from the Dave Lyle, Rock Hill, SC location - and advised that they apologized about the mix up and would do what was needed to make things right - included removing the clearing fee from my bill and giving me an additional amount off for the inconvenience - as well as a gift card.

    After the call, the fencing company advised that they still did not have enough materials to complete the fence and that Mr. ** advised that he would bring the remaining materials on the back of his truck. Hours passed and there was no Mr. **. The fencing company had to leave and advised that we would likely have to call several times and stay on the company before the remaining fence would be completed... that it could take several days. They left our home and the fence was incomplete on the left side of the property (facing from the main road). I really wanted to confirm when the remaining fence would be put up and again contacted Mr. **. He said that he would contact the manager of the fencing company and confirm. Needless to say, the fencing company came back out the following week and finished the fence INCORRECTLY.

    They ended the fence with a window that I wanted inside the fence on the outside. They did not follow the measurements that Mr. ** had entered on his sketch. When we contacted Mr. ** about this, he advised that we needed to take another look at the sketch, as if we were wrong, and that he would come by and re-measure. It came to be that Mr. ** drew the window on the sketch in the wrong location (outside of the fence), but the measurement, which encompassed the materials we are paying for, placed the window on the inside of the fence. We have been calling Mr. **, the store, the fencing company, corporate, and anyone else you can think of to have our fence corrected and our bill corrected.

    As of today, we have materials sitting in our driveway, we have left messages, been hung up on, been advised that Mr. ** is on vacation until next week, and are now preparing to drive to the store and hopefully sit in a manager's office until this is corrected. This has been a terrible experience for me. My first time entrusting a company to assist with home improvement has proven that customer service is at the bottom of Lowe's list. Lowe's does not provide the best customer experience as promised, and I wish I had listened to my neighbors and gone with a different option. Word of mouth is a powerful tool, and this word of mouth will be as powerful as I can make it to discourage other people from selecting Lowe's for their home improvement. I will not stop until we are compensated for this terrible experience and an incorrect fence. Thinking Lowe's? Think again!!!

There were nails left all over the yard and our neighbor's yard. I had to buy a magnet and have cleaned up hundreds of nails. Lowes contracting manager came out and took a look at it, but she admitted she knew nothing about roofing.

    We asked that their roofing expert come out and take a look at it and he never showed up. The contractor refused to acknowledge that any of the damage to the house was his fault and that he had done as good a job as he could. We have vinyl siding on the house and he attempted to repair some of the vinyl siding by driving nails through the face of the vinyl siding, thereby ruining the siding. I hired a certified home Inspector to do an inspection and he agreed that the roofing was poorly done and that the damage was unacceptable. I told Lowe’s contractor manager that I would accept them repairing the damaged siding, but I have received no response. I will never use Lowe’s again.

    Lowe's will over order materials and leave you with the excess and will not give you a refund. Roofing installers did not correctly finish a ridge on the roof, left the job as having been completed. Upon my observation as a homeowner had to determine that it was not done properly. They did have someone to come out to correct the problem.

    Lowe's in Carlsbad, CA treated me very badly. I was insulted, lied to by the customer service woman work there on 7/28/18 at 6.30 PM. She refused to let me see the manager. I called later after I called the number on the card and they told me to go back to the store and talk to the manager. I called and she answered the phone and she hanged up on me 4 times. I finally was promised that the night manager Nora will call me but no one ever called. I lost my gift card not working; she also never credited my merchandise mistake on my credit card and two days later nothing in pending etc. I don't know why Lowe's hires people like this woman to lose a customer like me. I spent more than ten thousand in the past four years in this store.

    Last year I had my roof replaced by a Lowe's contractor and was totally disgusted in the work done and the damage they did to my home. They had bent and loosened my gutters and when I contacted and called them, both Lowe's complaint dept and the contractor after about a dozen times I never received any satisfaction on fixing or replacing the dented and broken parts. I also had installed complete leaf guards the previous year that they were tossing away in the trash, I told them I wanted them replaced again and they never completed installing. NEVER HAVE WORK DONE BY LOWE'S.

    All I can say, "WHAT A COMPLETE NIGHTMARE". This has been the worse experience in dealing with a large retail store, whom we thought was trustworthy and competent. I couldn't have been more mistaken. They were to install a tub and surround and couldn't even do that right. One mistake after another. Measured the tub wrong, installed a toilet that has been leaking since December, and can't fix it! We are ready to fly to Tennessee to get this done for my boyfriend's 80 year old mother! We went to Lowe's because we were leaving town, she just lost her husband, and WE wanted to make her feel better by re-doing her tub/surround after losing her husband of 60 years. She is so stressed out and getting sick over this horrible three month project that was suppose to take 2 days-she didn't even have a toilet for a few days. She only has one bathroom and Lowe's didn't care that she didn't even have a toilet!

    Beyond my comprehension that none of the 7 people we talked to (complete runaround! For 3 months now) even cared at all! I even talked to a District Manager who acted like she cared, but never called me back or sent someone out there to fix the toilet. I called the General Contractor directly to fix the toilet -- they told me they have a 24 hour protocol -- she had to have a toilet now, not 24 hours from now. Supposedly they hired a license GC, but they can't produce their GC license to me-I've asked at least 3 people to provide their license, but they told me I could call them directly. Does anyone out there know what I can do to resolve this???? The delivery dates are all a LIE! The new tub/surround was suppose to be delivered 3 days ago, but we haven't heard from anyone.

    We live in another state, but we are ready to fly out there to help his mom get through this. She doesn't drive or have any support where she lives in a small town. So, so sad. It angers me because NO ONE CARES! So sad to put an elderly woman who is grieving to go through this. Also, it cost more than $4,500! They charged us for a dumpster they never brought to the property, and other charges that were never done -- they told me those are "standard" charges even if they aren't used. What???? Who does that? The people they sent didn't even have a business card! Professionals??? I'm beyond sick over this -- We have honestly gotten physically ill dealing with LOWE'S in Union City, Tenn - DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM!

    Purchased a Husqvarna HGT 26 HP V-Twin Kohler 54 inch mower model # 96045004 5/16/2016 from Lowe's of Marion, NC. The warranty on the frame was/is for 3 years. At the 2 year mark the frame broke. In the two years I had wheels break and I replaced them on my own. I had discussed the frame break with the department manager as well as the assistant manager at the Marion, NC store and the folks at the customer service desk. ALL Lowe's personnel agreed the frame was under the warranty and would be fixed or replaced. When I took the mower into Lowe's so they would honor the warranty on the frame they apparently had/have a repair shop who picks up repairs on Thursdays.

    Having picked up the mower I was contacted approximately a week later. The repair man or spokesperson iterated that the frame was literally broken in half. The gentleman informed me that the repair would cost $1402.00. I asked about the warranty that the mower had with it stating the frame and ALL factory parts were warranted for 3 years. He stated that because the mower had been abused and the frame would NOT be covered under the warranty. What? A flat to 1% grade of slope for your yard...How in the world can that be abuse? Realizing that I was obviously speaking to the wrong person, I asked to speak with someone else. I was hung up on. I did eventually get hold of someone else but to NO avail.

    I suggested they just send my mower back to me. They were shocked that I wanted it back. I told them that I would still be able to use it and I would later use it for parts. I was told by the repair gentleman that they would send the mower back to the Marion Lowe's and that the store would contact me. After 3 weeks I contacted the repair folks again and they informed me that they could not find the mower that I sent in for repair. It has been nearly two months now and I still haven't heard from the store. I've gone in the store a couple of times but the machine is NOT there. The customer service folks at the Marion, NC store have said they would follow-up. I don't know what they are following up on because it's NOT happening. My recommendation: DO NOT Purchase a Husqvarna riding mower from ANY LOWE'S store. I have seen numerous accounts where a Husqvarna frame has broken in half by reviews on the internet. NOT a reliable product.

    We purchased a new bathtub and surround from them, for $4,465.00! What a nightmare! Two months later, it isn't done. They do not answer our phone calls, emails, etc. They are really good at "passing the buck" to the General Contractor, or stating they are not responsible for the tub replacement. Then, they put plastic around the tub so our mother, who is 80 years old could take a shower, but forgot to put a shower curtain up while they wait for the parts that were ordered wrong. I have more to say about this, but you wouldn't even believe the lack of concern by Lowe's.

    I elevated this to District Manager, but no response as of yet. Can't believe that a big company like Lowe's can treat people like this. I will never buy anything from Lowe's again - please don't hire them to do any home improvement projects. Union City Tennessee Lowe's is the worse experience I have ever had in my entire life--I'm a project manager and dealt with large projects; a tub and surround is not that complicated, but they made it that way--I talked to over 7 people during this process, and NO ONE at Lowe's cared about the problems--every time I called they sent me to someone else! UGH!

    They are really great at "passing the buck" and not taking responsibility of this.

We paid $35.00 for the measurements and after multiple calls we made - we finally got an answer that the cooktop will fit with some minor adjustments for an additional cost. So we went to purchase the cooktop and pay the price for the adjustment and the surprise was that Lowe’s said they the product was discontinued. I asked them why they did the measurements if they knew the item was discontinued - and there was no answer so I asked to be reimbursed for the measurements if it was done for nothing and they refused. Really disappointed considering that we purchase things from Lowe’s all the time - I guess it’s time to go with Home Depot!

    We ordered 4 appliances online during the July 4th, 2018 sale. We were delighted to receive a call 2 days later telling us delivery would be the next day. After emptying the fridge and cleaning it, the drivers arrived with 2 of the 4 appliances. They told me the fridge and dishwasher were coming from another store. Obviously, no one bothered to mention that when they scheduled our delivery.

    Then they refused to remove the appliances (stove and microwave) until WE disconnected them. There is absolutely no mention that they would not disconnect appliances when you select the "Haul Away" option for which you are charged $20 per item. Unless you purchase installation - which you have to do separately by filling out an online form and then you still have to go into the store to sign a contract (told to me by Lowe's customer service) your new appliances will be sitting in the middle of the floor, unusable, until someone installs them and there is no guarantee when they will show up.

    Then Lowe's (again no communication about it) says they are going to hold up the refrigerator delivery until the dishwasher is available. After much arguing, they finally agreed to bring the refrigerator before the dishwasher. It came from the Clearwater store. We live in Lutz and our Lowe's is 5 min away (where the stove and microwave came from). None of this makes sense to me and most of all, not informing us was ridiculous.

    We finally had the dishwasher delivered today. Again, paid for removal but he wouldn't touch it until it was disconnected. Since it had been almost 4 weeks, we forgot about that or we could have been prepared. My advice is if you order online, ask lots of questions before or during the process! Make sure to find out if the order is being delivered completely, how you arrange for installation, if you have to disconnect anything, etc. They aren't going to be offering any information! We wanted to be thrilled about our new kitchen! But the lack of communication, split delivery, no information about what had to be disconnected, all have made this way more stressful and unhappy than it had to be.

A year ago. The FIRST set of contractors provided by Lowe's was a bunch of Russians who seemed not to have even been licensed, installed almost everything in her house wrong, wrong cabinet doors, wrong trim, used the trim for the bathroom in the kitchen. This was after waiting 4 months AFTER the finishing date for them to even start. Then a few months later, well past when it should have been done, after my mother called Lowe's for the millionth time either to no response or no viable explanation as to why it was taking so long, the Russians disappear.

    No, really. They left the country and took her money according to Lowe's. NOW 4 more months later there's a group of contractors. All seems fine except one guy acts suspicious. iPhone 7 plus goes missing, okay can't prove it and move on.

    Last February, my husband and I purchased an LG French door refrigerator from Lowe's in Elverson, PA. It was the last in stock and had a slight ding on the bottom that you seriously had to stand to the side to even notice. So, since it was a good deal and what we were looking for we purchased it using our debit card. Within the first 5 weeks, the ice maker stopped working so after jumping through several hoops... even WITH our warranty! Finally, Lowe's sent out a repairman. The issue was taken care of. But, then 5 months later, our secondary ice maker stopped working. Lowe's would not help. Strike two~ strike one being the extremely frustrating situation to get a repairman the first time.

    NOW, after 17 months, suddenly our fridge stopped working. Lowe's would not help us find an LG repairman and told us that if we would have used a Lowe's credit card, they could have helped. WHAT kind of nonsense is THAT!?! We located a serviceman on our own and when he was able to come out 5 days later, informed us that it is a failed air compressor... AND the extended warranty will not cover it. BUT, the really upsetting news is that he informed us that our fridge is a 2012 model that was more than likely a return to the Elverson store, SO that is why no one could help... because it was a discontinued model. Calling the store was pointless. Curtis in appliances was rude and short and pretty much said that it is not Lowe's problem.

    I am VERY upset and angry with Lowe's and will NEVER give them my business again! I DEFINITELY suggest that if anyone is looking for new appliances, to stay clear of Lowe's. I wish we would have purchased our fridge from Martin's Appliance when we bought our new washer and dryer. They are absolutely wonderful and have in-store repairman to send out, should there be an issue. Hindsight is 20/20, right?! My husband is on disability and we are unable to afford the $700 fix for our LG refrigerator, right now. Extremely frustrated and stressed!

I asked for estimates on three different standby Generac generators (11kW; 16kW; 20kW.) I also asked if the generator could be installed with a manual transfer switch rather than an automatic transfer switch (a $900 part). An estimator came out but gave me no cost numbers, said they would call me from the store with the cost numbers. A week went by...no call. I called the store several times and got a curt, unfriendly, customer service desk person. When he transferred me to the generator department all I got was an answering machine.

    I left messages...no callback. I finally got a generator dept rep but still no numbers. 3 or 4 days later I finally got cost numbers on two of the three generators, but no information on the manual transfer switch cost. More calls, more NOBODY AT THEIR DESK TO TAKE THE CALLS. Two or three days later I got the third estimate. This time on an official form via my e-mail.

Every time we have to call them over & over and here we are almost a year later and nothing! The contractor they used was dishonest, poor work ethic and lack of skills. When he didn’t do the tile work right, 1/2 inch difference from one side to the other, very noticeable! And tiles not only put in crooked but grouted it crooked! Then told me he didn’t notice it but I showed him b4 he grouted! They busted holes in my walls and deeps sings in woodwork that have not been repaired.

    Jacob used bowed tiles then blamed the tiles for the 1/2 inch issue. I asked why he put the tiles on the wall if he knew they were bowed, he said because that’s what Lowe’s sent. They must have sent the worst of their stock! We had to pay in full about two months prior to the job, almost a year ago. When first job was done wrong they sent same company to do it over. Then when they continued to do poor job I was told by Steve ** said Jacob wouldn’t get paid till it was complete! It’s not complete but I’m guessing he still got paid.

    Now 2 months since end of the second attempt they had Jacob call me again to come see what he can do. I don’t want him back in my home.

    WORST CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE EVER! We bought a stove from the Lowe's in Dale City, and it was delivered with two huge dents on the side. The guys told me the moment they noticed and said that I needed to call the store to get a 20% discount. So I let them go ahead and remove my old stove to install the new dented one. When I tried to call the store I was told that they would transfer me to the delivery department. The transfer didn't work, so I was transferred back to customer service who attempted again. The second time it didn't work and I was transferred back to customer service. This time she tried transferring me again and ended up hanging up on me. I tried calling back and the store never answered.

    I waited five hours and called back. I was told that the delivery department was closed and that I would be transferred to a manager. At that point it rang and rang and rang, to then be hung up on again. I called back and asked to speak directly to a manager. The guy who answered the call gave me a hard time for wanting to speak with the manager. He then transferred me to a manager but come to find out, it was the corporate dispatch office. I explained what happened and she said that she was not able to help because I needed to speak with the store directly. She was kind enough to keep me on the line until I reached a manager.

    At that point the manager told me she would take $80 (less than 10% off the original price) off the stove or deliver a new one which requires another day off work. I explained the discussion with the deliver guys, who she said cannot give that kind of information out. I then explained that I needed to know the time to see if I could take off work. She said that she's not able to give out delivery times but I would know sometime the night before the delivery. Overall this was the absolute worst customer experience I have ever had.

The salesperson let me know that the dishwasher should arrive on 6/30/18. 6/30 came and went. No dishwasher. No courtesy phone call from Lowe's to let me know there's been a delay. 7/2 came and went. No dishwasher. No courtesy phone call from Lowe's to let me know there's been a delay. 7/11 Finally I get a call from Jeffrey (cell #**) from the 3rd party delivery company. Scheduled delivery date: 7/14 between 1-3 p.m.

    7/14 came and went. No delivery. No courtesy call from Jeffrey saying he would not be making the delivery. I had to call him to reschedule. New scheduled delivery date: 7/17 between 3-5 p.m. 7/17 came and went. No delivery. No courtesy call from Jeffrey saying he would not be making the delivery. So I called him to cancel the delivery. He didn't seem at all concerned and he didn't give me the impression that he even remembered that he had a dishwasher to deliver.

    As soon as I ended the call with Jeffrey, I called the Lowe's store where I purchased the dishwasher to cancel the order. The customer service rep was polite but she did not know how to cancel the order over the phone. It was clear that she was getting assistance from the manager but it was also clear that the manager had no interest in completing the cancellation herself. The whole time I was expecting someone to ask me why I was cancelling the order. Nothing.

    I cleared two afternoons for Lowe's and their 3rd party delivery service to come and install my dishwasher and not even an apology when the deal fell through. Nothing. Would I recommend Lowe's to someone else in the future? ABSOLUTELY NOT. If I had to rate the customer care I received on a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give Lowe's a zero. Will I be going across town to your competitor to get the dishwasher I ordered over a month ago from Lowe's? I can guarantee it!

    DO NOT USE THEIR PICK-UP SERVICE EVER!!! I ordered some items on their website and 'paid' for the items, which was confirmed at my bank. When I picked up my items I was required to "PAY" for the items. I showed the guy that it was showing paid already. He said Lowe's just puts orders in 'pending' status with the bank to make sure you have the funds and when you come in to pick-up the items you are officially charged... So basically I had to pay for the items "AGAIN"!! It is taking me 'days' to (try) and get the charges removed from my account...which the items were not cheap. So currently I'm OUT my funds until Lowe's and my bank figure this out, since according to my bank Lowe's order cancel documentation has NOT reached my bank to 'release' the pending status. So basically my family's food and gas money is being held hostage.

    We worked with the Lowe's in Fairfield CA. They did an entire kitchen remodel including the installation of a gas line. They did require full payment up front which was sort of scary. We could not have been happier with the communication and work. The design consultant was always available, the contractor and his team went above and beyond when we decided to add or change things mid project. We really liked that Lowe's provided a project manager so we didn't have to worry about who was doing what next. The work was done in a timely manner and we are overall pleased. We finished the kitchen and plan to go back to this team to do the bathrooms. I know I have seen some less than positive reviews but I would still recommend the Fairfield team. We had heard so many horror stories of kitchen remodels that we were really scared to do it - but the experience was positive all the way around.

    This was the worst experience I've ever encountered! I ordered several outdoor items [dining table, outdoor carpet and several pillows] online in early June. Since the website indicated that direct shipping was not an option, I chose the Lowe's delivery option as my car is not large enough to accommodate the size of the table I ordered. I received a confirmation that said my order would not be delivered until 6/27/18 because one of the pillows was a 'special order'. I received a call the evening before delivery stating they would be in touch with me the morning of the 27th with a two-hour window. I received a call on the 27th stating my items would not be delivered because there was a 'problem' with my payment. No further information was provided. Just a thought: shouldn't you confirm the payment for each order before you contact the customer to arrange delivery??

    I then spent the next hour and 45 minutes trying to figure out why my payment was not accepted. I spoke to a number of different individuals at the customer service number for online orders. Not one person was helpful. They insisted this was my issue and that I should contact my bank. I contacted my bank who confirmed there was no problem with my payment and, in fact, it did not appear that Lowe's even attempted to run my card information. I conferenced with my bank and Lowe's who ran my debit card information two more times and kept telling me it did not go through.

    After continuously being placed on hold for what seemed like an eternity, I finally spoke to a Lowe's 'manager' [Dominick] who handled the online purchases who didn't seem to care at all. He basically said there was nothing he could do and transferred me to their online sales department. The woman I spoke to did not even know how to resolve my issue, but she did try. She again tried to run my debit card information to no avail. I spoke to my bank yet again who conferenced with the Lowe's representative who told this woman that it was an issue on Lowe's end because nothing was transmitting through to them.

    I was eventually transferred to the Carlisle, PA store who re-entered my order and surprise, my payment was accepted with no issue! The only problem was that I now had not one, but TWO active orders because the woman in the sales department failed to tell me doing so would be like starting from scratch. The sales person at the Carlisle PA store [Diane] was somewhat helpful, however, it was not until after I demanded that the first order be cancelled and all of my items be delivered the next day. Ultimately, I did receive all of my items, however, I will never ever place an online order through Lowe's again. This was an awful customer experience that I would not wish on anyone.

    Lowe's-- you need to go back to the basics-- proper customer service training for your employees at every level of your organization. A customer should never be made to feel like they are an inconvenience and your employees should be educated so they know how to handle these situations. It was very obvious that no one knew what they were doing and they certainly had no empathy for what I had to go through to get the items I paid for. As a long-time in store customer of Lowe's, I was appalled at the treatment I received with this online order.

    We contracted with Lowe's in Baltimore to have them install a new kitchen ($65k). The first week they sent 4 guys out to get started. The next week, and subsequent weeks, they sent ONE guy to finish the job. It took 6 months. We were pissed. A couple of years go by, as well as a move to Columbus, Ohio, and we needed another new kitchen. We liked the cabinets that Lowe's sells (Schuler) so we went to look. Their salesperson sounded very good and, after relating our Baltimore story, she assured us that she was an advocate for her buyers. That turns out to not be the case at all. Rather than working for her buyers, she, clearly, is a tool for the contractor that they use. They required payment in-full (Yes, you read that right... IN-FULL) upfront. We balked a little but decided to go with it.

    As it turns out, the reason that they require payment in-full upfront is take away any and all leverage that their customers would have when it came to the contractor actually showing up to work. It has been almost 7 weeks since they got our $50k+ payment and not a single finger has been lifted by them to do anything in this house. Nothing. We removed our existing kitchen 6 weeks ago and haven't had one since.

    Their policy is that they won't lift a finger to start ANY work on the kitchen until 100% of the products needed to finish the job are on-site and in our home. There is painting that should be done first (Prior to cabinet install), electrical work, plumbing work, removal of a doorway, 2 other door frames that need removed, a window installed, and a new floor installed but they refuse to lift a finger to do ANY of those until the end of July (2 days before we leave on a vacation that has been scheduled for MONTHS). That is when they want to start. They want us to give their contractor access to our home (these are people that we do not know) to allow them to come and go when we are gone. Unbelievable.

    I gave them an ultimatum: Start work on our home before the end of the week of July 16-20th or we were going to cancel. This morning, I got a call from their "project coordinator" to tell me that they won't be doing that. Essentially, she was telling me that they start it when they are good and fricken' ready. If YOU are looking for a new kitchen, DO NOT deal with or buy it from Lowe's. 2 different store locations, BOTH were bad service situations. Save your hard-earned money and go with a kitchen company that gives a damn about YOU, the customer. Not one that kowtows to their contractor.

    Lowes Anchorage Tikatnu - Incorrect information regarding delivery policy. Poor communication regarding delivery. Poor customer service overall from manager, delivery staff and appliance staff (telephone). On June 28, 2018, I purchased a new refrigerator. When asked whether we would have pick up or delivery, I told the salesperson that my husband was disabled and we had a stairlift in our entrance where the delivery would need to be made. I told the salesperson that the refrigerator would have to be lifted over the chair portion and then carried up the stairs. The salesperson assured me that Lowe's would work with us on the delivery. I then proceeded to request the delivery and removal of our old appliance.

    The refrigerator was not in stock but was scheduled to arrive on July 9th. On July 13th I had not been contacted and the online status did not reflect anything but the original purchase information. I called the store and after being transferred twice, an employee answered the phone, curtly asked my telephone number, stated that delivery would be the next day. When I asked why I wasn't contacted, he stated "I have no idea' and hung up on me. Then next day, I received a call at 10:44am stating delivery was delayed and wouldn't arrive until 5-6pm. The person who called was apologetic.

    At 2:36pm I received a call from the delivery person who stated they were on their way and would arrive in 20 minutes. When they arrived, an older gentleman looked at our entry way and said "this is not going to happen". I asked why and he stated they did not have room to deliver because of our stairlift. I asked if the stairlift instructions were in his paperwork and he said it was. I told him that I had been assured when I purchased the refrigerator that the delivery staff would work with us. He asked who told me that and I told him the salesperson. He stated the salesperson was incorrect and did not ask the right questions.

    When I asked him what my options were he said it was up to me, they could leave it at the door or take it back to the store. When I asked why they could not lift over the chair and even offered to remove the hand rails, he was firm that they do not lift anything. I told him I had measured and the refrigerator would fit up the stairs but needed to be lifted.

    I offered to have my sons assist and he again said, "No, we can't do that." They had a hand truck and that's how they deliver. My son took a look at the refrigerator in the truck and they had no lifting straps in their truck. At that point, I again asked what I was supposed to do. He said he'd call and speak to the store manager. He called the store, told them I was upset and that he could not deliver. He then told me that I would need to contact the store manager, Kevin. He then took photos of our stairway. I asked whether he was going to call me and he said 'no ma'am - you need to call or go to the store and talk to him'.

    At that point, I refused delivery. I then went to the store and spoke to Kevin. After I introduced myself to him, he offered no apology, no options for this situation. At that point, I told him how unprofessional I felt this was handled and his only comment was "OK". At that point I requested a refund - his only response was "OK I'll get someone to help you" and then walked away.

    There was only one customer service clerk at the counter. He then returned and stated another customer service clerk would be available shortly and walked away. Again, no attempts to assist me in resolving the situation. The customer service clerk was friendly and thanked me when, being an honest person, I caught her attempting to refund me other materials on my receipt. Needless to say, if there had been any kind of attempt to work with us to resolve the situation or even apologize, I would not be writing this review.

    Just had the most horrific experience at @Lowe's. We bought a scratch and dent dryer. Very minimal visible damage. Just two tiny scuffs and small dent. I asked the clerk to plug it in before taking it home. Was told they don't have a 220 outlet in store, but dryer is fine. This was LG model DLE3170W. After wrestling this behemoth out of the car, up a couple of steps And ledges, uninstalling the old dryer and hauling it to the side of the road, installing the 220 cord and vent ducts we turned it on. Sounds like rocks clunking around inside. **

    More backbreaking labor. Uninstalled everything, hauled it back downstairs and over ledges. Eventually got it back in the car. Was much easier with two guys helping back at @Lowe's. This completely wiped me out. And I was livid. Of course @Lowe's gave us a refund. I told them that after messing around with this for 2 1/2 hours and total exhaustion we still don't have a dryer. I suggested that after all this they owe us a brand new model with delivery and install. I already took care of that once. @Lowe's, after talking to 2 managers, now wants to charge us an additional $162. I told my husband no-go, but he wants the dryer.

    Only recourse I have is to return everything we bought at @Lowe's over the last month. This includes a Weber Charcoal Grill and chimney starter. Grand total? $164 And they won't be able to resell these used items. We will never know if this dryer is any good new out of the box, but my BTW.

    I purchase a kitchen and counter in Lowe's E Bridgewater MA. I purchased on Jan 6th 2018 and completion in or about April 1st 2018. So it was delivered on February 20th 2018 and called immediately to have the installer come and examine all 29 boxes like I was told to do and they would come out to inspect to be sure no damage. I called Lowe's Point of Contact Victor ** and he called the contractor and had them send two guys out and there was one corner unit that wouldn't fit thru the door so they took off the back door instead of just taking the pins out. They unscrewed the hinges and the door hasn't closed right since it happened. So all they did was put the corner piece in the house and left. No one ✔ the other boxes and left them piled up in my kitchen and living room. So that we this was a Tuesday and we lost heat, power, electric. I have a child of 4 years and a disabled young adult with cerebral palsy mentally ** with asthma.

    We lost everything on that Friday and we have to live with 29 boxes and all my other furniture all over my home in other rooms, bathroom and bedroom. I called before all this power failure to confirm they at least would check all boxes for damages before any of this happened. They never did... No one came out Tues, Wed, Thurs or Friday. We lost power Friday. Note I called and called and finally on Monday Victor ** called and I told him what happened. He said "Mark the contractor and his brother Matt had a family they had to take care of." I am sure they had generators and their families were better taken care of than mine.

    Mark the contractor finally called in the following Wednesday that he would be out on Thursday as he was ordering his coffee at DD while flirting with the server. So I confirm I had to go to take my grandson to school and I would be back at 830 and he assured me he would be there at 8. I asked him to, "Please call me if you're gonna be late. Please call me if you're gonna be late." I left the back door open and for back at 820. I waited till 10 and no one came. Went to the gym for a call around 1015. He was at the house. I didn't respond because I don't take my phone in the gym. So I called to tell Victor and he was so adamant that I should of waited. He has other jobs. Omg. What about me, my family, my home.

    I tried to canceled my order and they refuse to give me my money back, They would give me a gift card. I paid CASH. I wanted CASH. They told me they didn't have cash in The store. I told them to go into their cash office and they refused to give me my money back. I talk to so many people. Either no will help you or they don't know what to do. The CPO are not competent to run a business from another state. So finally a lady called me. Nicole. I told her what happened and she asked to listen. Her husband works for Lowe's as a carpenter and she assured me he could do the job. I hemmed and hawed and said ok. She told me they couldn't fit me in till April 2nd 2018. I took it because of carpentry and his wife Nicole listen. Didn't treat me like dirt.

    Lowe's treats you like **. They don't listen so they started and came to look inside the boxes so 8 pieces damages and they were at that 42 days unopened. In and around my home cabinets wrong size. The designer Jim ** did his job great too! So then they reorder cabinets and I got damaged ones so I had so many damage or not acceptable drawer front cabinets. I must of had 32 drawer fronts, 3 corner doors, two cabinets and then my countertop. I was told the seam is so noticeable because the gentleman that came he states in "his professional opinion because the counter is so white it will show up." I request this statement 4 times in email or text. Never received it. But my counter is light gray with flicks of mirrors. To this day no one will respond. But thanks to JMT carpentry and Nicole I got my cabinets done yesterday July the 13th.

    I could go on and on how awful Lowe's is. The corporate office mean, disrespectful, not caring, no customer service. They need training. The people in the site don't know what they're doing. The CEO should call every customer to see how satisfied customers are but he's not man enough to do that. I ordered flooring from Brockton. They delivered it and broke my storm door. I could go on and on. It was a nightmares. I am so disgusted. This only half of what they did. Please do fact JMTcarpentry@aol.com if you want a job done right.

    We designed and purchased a 4x8 en suite bathroom remodel in late-Feb'18, to start mid-Apr'18. Materials were delivered, contractor arrived to start and found shower base was cracked. Lowe's-Piscataway NJ store said that they were re-ordering base, on rush, that date (4-18-18). Lowe's store and install office claimed it was ordered and set for delivery in 2-3 weeks. Later learned that it was not ordered until 5-2-18, then delivered to us Fri 5-25-18.

    Lowe's Central Install office (CPO) scheduled contractor pre-construction meeting for Mon, to re-start project. Contractor did not show (he was out of country, so not sure why they told us to meet with him). Contractor agent showed for a 2nd meeting that Fri 6-1-18, and gutted our bathroom. The following week more new faces - "covering" workers - arrived and none had ID. Three of the contractors on our job had "expired background check". Work was delayed another week.

    The install finally began the following week; the green board went up and the shower base was installed, including plumbing (which was accessed thru our foyer ceiling) but the base did not meet the walls, leaving a gap for the solid surface walls of the shower enclosure. Contractor and Lowe's at first claimed this was as it was supposed to be; we were told to "trust us to do our job". They suggested different ways to make-shift the space to work.

    We then contacted the manufacturer, provided pics and measurements, and were advised it was unsound to proceed. Manufacturer guidelines were to re-measure, re-order and begin again. Lowe's and contractor delayed and evaded our communications. Finally, space was re-measured 10 am 6-25-18, and measurements were called to Lowe's-Piscataway to re-order. At 4 pm we were told it was not yet ordered and "emails were exchanged on this" [with manufacturer], and it would be handled.

    At 5 pm this same day 6-25-18, we went to store, met with sales associate and Store Mgr, who agreed to complete order. We waited in store for written confirmation. On review of order, we noted that the width was correct, but depth was 1/2" short, per contractor specs. Lowe's faxed manufacturer to adjust this dimension. Papers stated estimated deliver to Lowe's store 7-16-18.

    Given all complications to date, on Fri 7-13-18, we called manufacturer to check the status of the order and were advised item never went to production and order was on hold. Manufacturer notified Lowe's store and CPO on 6-28-18 that to adjust dimensions would effect pricing, so they simply needed to cancel that PO and re-submit with new dimensions as a new PO. They provided me with date/contact/mode of eight additional contacts 6-28 thru 7-12-18, requesting Lowe's confirm the change or cancel the order. We called CPO who verified that our CPO rep contact the Lowe's store Project rep and confirmed need to correct order and issue a new PO, but nothing was done. Still awaiting resolution...

The pastor had complained to the installers that the carpet was bubbling up in several areas. The installers said, "Don't worry, it will lay down in time and you have a years warranty on the install." The pastor asked the installer to note his complaint. Days later the cove base was falling off the wall. We contacted Lowe's and the installers, Quality Installation to report the problem and to note the floor was still bubbling up. The installers came back by to inspect and said it was not their responsibility.

It took us an hour to get thru to Lowe’s on the day it was delivered to advise them of the problem. When we did get thru the lady we spoke to was very flippant and could have cared less. She assured us she would have someone call us back. But of course we never heard from anyone!!! We called the store several more times and we were assured by Derek, Weldon and Jacob that the situation was being handled. But of course nothing was being done. We called the 800 number for Lowe’s customer care and spoke to a young man on Tuesday July 3, 2018. He took all the information and assured us we would be getting a call from a mgmt. team within 24 hrs. Surprise, surprise AGAIN we never heard from anyone.

    We spoke to Derek and Jacob at the Carrollton store and both told us they would pick up the bad ref today July 12, 2018. When I spoke to Derek an hour ago he said he did not think he could get it picked up today. I spoke to a young lady at the 800 number (she would not give me her name). She was far from helpful and pretty much said I would have to live with not getting it picked up today Totally unacceptable. I then spoke to Corina a supervisor at Lowe’s corporate. She called the Carrollton store and spoke to another asst mgr named Carolyn. I am supposed to get a call from Carolyn between 2 and 4 today to let me know if she could help. I’m not holding my breath that I will get a call judging from the previous track record of callbacks. Nor do I expect Lowe’s to live up to their promise to have the ref picked up today.

    If I could give 0 stars, I would. I ordered a washer/dryer set online and received a confirmation of purchase and delivery. Two days later, I received a call from Lowe's - somehow, half of my delivery was cancelled and could not be fulfilled for another month in the middle of a workday. There was no apology - in fact, I was transferred to someone who INSISTED that I was the one who had cancelled my delivery. I explained my situation - I started work in two weeks and I just moved - I really needed the washer/dryer. I was then transferred to a salesman who basically told me I was an idiot and I should just order something else instead of trying to get what I paid for. I explained that we'd researched the available products and I didn't want the other sets he was trying to sell me. I cancelled the order. He was apathetic and sarcastically told me to have a nice day.

    I found another set I would be happy with. I decided this time to go into the store - I thought it would be a different experience. The associate was nice. She confirmed the set was in stock and scheduled a delivery. Surprise surprise - they attempted to deliver it a day early (I was at work). I called customer service and was told I'd have to reschedule delivery. I explained that I did but the delivery came a day early. She argued with me until I found the confirmation. I was then told that there's no real way to guarantee a scheduled delivery. I said that was ridiculous and referenced their website which GUARANTEES scheduled deliveries within a certain time frame. She proceeded to explain to me how the Lowe's IT system works and how this was some kind of IT issue.

    I was forced the accept a much later delivery date. I must have spoken with at least 10 different customer service reps and almost every single one of them had an attitude, treated me like I was an idiot and/or expressed that this was somehow my fault. I've worked in customer service for years. I'm not a difficult person and it takes a lot for me to get upset, even when something goes wrong. I cannot believe I was treated this way by so many different people. I was spending close to $2000 and they treated me like I was complaining about a $20 purchase. This was the worst customer service experience of my life.

    The staff at the store is great but I would never use one of their contractor to install anything on our property ever again. I recently purchased a fence and the contractor was suppose to come on a Tuesday. They canceled because their truck broke down. They promised to come on Friday. We waited all morning and no one showed. We didn’t receive a phone call or anything. We contacted the store and they called the contractor. They stated they were held up at another job and would be there soon. They never came. Monday rolls around and two of the workers show up without tools. They stated a third guy should be here with the tools. They call the guy who stated he cannot arrive for two hours. They asked us if we have tools. My brother told them no. They drive to Lowe’s to buy the tools.

    They finally start setting up the fence by the afternoon. 4:00 rolls around and they state they have to leave but will be back in the morning. Fence is not even half completed and we aren’t fencing in a large area. Morning has come and gone. So far no one has arrived. No phone calls and fence still not done. Called Lowe’s and manager stated they were at our house but no one was here. We have been home all day and no one showed. Manager now states they will be here tomorrow. NOT HAPPY!

I have gaps in my badly cut flooring, a lump glued under my kitchen floor, and a roof so crooked it looks like it was put on by a child in the dark. Am consulting attorney to sue them so I can get skilled and not day laborers to fix all the damage they have done to my cracked doors and big chip in bathroom vanity.

    I recently purchased an LG Instaview Refrigerator, Stove, Microwave and Dishwasher. From the very beginning this entire process was a nightmare. Couldn’t seem to get my order straight at the store. After countless hours of going back and forth from the register to the service desk I finally thought everything was resolved. I received a call that my delivery was coming on July 6th. My delivery came with everything except the stove that apparently was never ordered because I was accused of not paying for it when I clearly had a receipt to disprove that.

    The Lowe’s employees began to carry my refrigerator in. Upon doing so they destroyed everything in their path. I have huge chunks of drywall missing in my entire entryway, chunks out of my baseboards and scratches all over my walls. When they got the refrigerator to my kitchen it was destroyed. Dents and scratches all over it. No apologies from the workers in fact they couldn’t get out of my house quick enough. As far as the install in the dishwasher...it was installed and ran with all the plastic and styrofoam still inside. Also, a big purple tab was inside that said remove before running. Apparently that didn’t matter to the installer.

    I paid for installation for the microwave but the installer decided he couldn’t get my old one out so he left the new one laying on my kitchen floor and only put one bolt back in the old one. So my microwave was hanging by one bolt. He also proceeded to tell me that he doesn’t make any money doing these installs so he doesn’t really care about the work that he does. That was quite obvious. I am beyond livid and totally disgusted with the terrible customer service that I received at Lowe’s. I’m not one to write bad reviews but after this experience I want to warn everyone about the incompetence and carelessness of Lowe’s employees.

    The sales associate was adequate from a customer service standpoint. She separated my washer and dryer and dishwasher purchases to 2 separate receipts. This ended up costing me $46.00 in lost discount from my 10% discount coupon. They should be better trained to maximize the consumer's discount, not shortchange them.

    I went way out of my way to shop at Lowe's. We only have Home Depot in my town. I purchased a stove. Upon delivery, 2 days later, it was damaged. I rejected the stove, and called customer service. I scheduled delivery for another stove, same model. They said they would call me a day in advance to confirm. No call. Then this morning the warehouse calls and said the driver put in their notes that I WAS NOT READY! Really? I've been waiting for days. I have no other way to cook for my family. I'm spending lots of money eating out because I have no way to cook. Now, they say they can't deliver until tomorrow "if they rush it". I will NEVER buy another appliance through them. Customer service even said she wasn't surprised at my situation, and it's not unusual. Wow. I have asked for a full refund. I hope they get it to me soon, so I can buy another stove at Home Depot.

    Vinyl fencing backyard - I went to Lowe’s to have a fence installed, which cost almost $ 10,000. And that I’m still paying for. The fence is about 8 months old. Here in my part of Virginia, we had a very bad storm. Which messed up the said fence. It is leaning in 3 areas. Plus me and my Nephew dug up one of the posts, and found no cement in or around the post. And I didn’t watch him put in the fence.

    My husband is a disabled veteran that has served 5 tours in the Middle East during the Iraqi War. We moved in May of 2018 and needed a fence installed at our new home in Sarasota. I received fence quotes from 5 companies before I spoke with the Lowe's on Central Sarasota Parkway. All of the other companies realized we needed a permit for a fence in Sarasota and included that in their quote. When I spoke to Lowe's, I neglected to ask about the permit because after speaking to all the other fence companies I was just assuming their quote included the permit. (My bad, I know but are they not a professional fence installation company?) I chose Lowe's because with my husband’s Veteran’s Discount Lowe's was about $150 less than the other quote we were considering.

    On May 24th, I paid for the fence in full for a “Contract Total” of $2,370.80. I checked online a few times to see if the permit was applied for. After a couple of weeks and not seeing anything, I called the store. A woman named Nancy is the person I spoke to. Nancy seems nice enough but she is utterly incompetent. Nancy was unaware that a permit was required in Sarasota, the same city her store is located in, and had to “check” although I assured her a permit absolutely was required. From start to finish, it took 4 WEEKS for Lowe's to apply for a permit with the City of Sarasota.

    I was told by Nancy that I would have to pay for the permit. I asked several times and was told that she did not know how much the permit would be. After looking at my contract, NOWHERE on that contract does it state that the cost of any shortage of materials (or permit costs) in the contract price agreed upon by Lowe's would be borne by the customer. On June 26th, I saw on the Sarasota permit website that the permit had been approved. Another 4 days went by before Lowe's picked up that permit. The entire time I was being told by Nancy that the permit was not approved although I could clearly see the approval online.

    This is FIVE weeks that were wasted by Lowe's and the sheer incompetence of their employees. My fence install was finally scheduled for July 5th. Late in the day on July 3rd, I received a call from Nancy saying the permit was $320 and I would have to pay it before my fence was installed. I said I would absolutely not pay that extra amount based upon the fact that it was Lowe's omission and the fact that Lowe's had already wasted 5 weeks of my time. She called back and said that Lowe's would cover 1/2 the permit cost but I would still need to pay the $160.

    Now, I could have paid $150 more at the onset, gone with the other company that was slightly higher but knew I needed a permit and had my fence installed over a month ago. I chose Lowe's purely because of the Veteran’s Discount. I did speak to my attorney about this that evening and he clearly stated that if the contract price is $2370.80 and there is no additional language to support Lowe's claim then they cannot force me to pay that $320 due to their error. Long story short, I spent over an hour on the phone last night with the Lowe's store manager and their 800 customer service people. I was waiting on a call from a VPSO (whatever that is) when I got a call this morning from the store installation manager Michael saying if I didn’t pay the $160 then my fence would not be installed.

    I called the 800 number back and spoke to a supervisor named Greg. He said the offer for $160 for the permit was their final resolution and if I was unhappy with that I could write a letter and a “neutral party” at Lowe's HQ would review it. SERIOUSLY??? With such horrible customer service and incompetence on the front end of this transaction, I decided it would be best to ask for a refund and move on. I can’t even imagine what a nightmare it would be if there was an issue with the fence after it was installed.

    I was referred back to the store. Of course, they do not have $2370.80 to refund to me today. I am going in at 1:00 tomorrow and I am suppose to be refunded by someone named Adolfo. I imagine I will waste at least another hour there trying to get this rectified. The end result is that Lowe's is still out the $320 for the permit and now are having to refund me in full for the fence. How does this make any sense? I will never step foot in a Lowe's again. Their Veteran’s Discount means absolutely nothing if this is how they treat their esteemed veteran customers, their practices with regard to their contract if wholly illegal and their employees are utterly incompetent.

    4 weeks ago I ordered an electric range from Lowes.com. My delivery date was moved twice and when the appliance was finally due to be delivered, it arrived damaged. A week later, they tried to re-deliver the same damaged appliance a second time. Since then, in spite of two trips to the local store and three hours worth of phone calls to the store and to Lowes.com, they have failed to order a new range for me. So, I have been trying to cancel my order, but neither the store nor the website can figure out how to issue me a refund. Meanwhile, Lowes.com has charged my credit card three times tonight, each time for $20.00. Is it fraud? Or just more incompetence?!?! I will never buy from Lowes.com again!

    We had our fence built in January and paid several thousand dollars for an outcome that looks like our next door neighbor did it! It has been leaning since February and one part was ruined by a wind storm. Mind you no one else fence in our neighborhood was ruined, which to me says it was a crappy job from the beginning. We complained to Lowe's and were told that they could not do anything about it because it wasn't their fault; even though the fence was built LESS than a month prior. It was confirmed later by the contractor himself that they had not put enough concrete to make it structurally sound (something we already knew).

    We have been back and forth with the contractor since February with NO resolve! I have plenty of pictures to show just how bad the fence is leaning, and Lowe's will NOT take responsibility for it! We are now in July and no resolution. Now we are looking for other contractors to fix a problem that should have been fixed months ago. This will cost a couple thousand more. It is ridiculous. Never again will we work with a contractor from Lowe's. This was not the first bad experience with Lowe's contractors, so we should have never given the company a second chance.

    I ordered a custom made marble sink from Lowe's. I ordered it on May 15th 2018 at a cost of $528.87. I was told it would take 3 to 4 weeks to be made. It finally arrived around June 28th which is over six weeks. I collected it yesterday and have tried today to fit it into one of the new bathroom cabinets I bought, it doesn’t fit…The depth is way off. I tried three times shaving off some of the wood from behind where the sink would sit, that didn’t work. I tried cutting pieces of wood out from behind the front of the cabinet, that didn’t work. I have now had to cut a whole piece of wood from my new cabinet just to make the sink fit.

    I was told the basin of the sink would be centered in the 24” sink vanity, it isn’t. There are at least 7 inches from the backsplash to the sink and 5 inches from the backsplash to the faucet… Why since there is only 3 inches from the sink to the front of the vanity? There is no overflow whatsoever, why? You may ask why I didn’t return the sink??? Possibly because I didn’t want to wait another 2 months for a new one. I'm beyond disgusted with everything about this sink and now I have no choice but to live with it. I would at the very least like a refund, when in fact I should demand a new sink made to the specifications Lowe's were given in the first place. This is not how I ordered it, this sink looks ridiculous. It will be cold day in hell before I ever order anything custom made from Lowe's.

    I would like to denounce the rudeness of a cashier and the misleading sale signs displayed that clearly indicate percentage discount in plant. Saturday at 5 pm, I was shopping at Lowe`s in Newmarket, Ontario when I noticed a sign hanging on the shelf above the lemons and oranges plants and I selected one to take home. Like had happened a couple of weeks before, with flowers, the register showed full price. I insisted because the sign clearly stated a sale for assorted citrus (is still there even today) yet the cashier insisted that it was not for lemon plants. I, assertively but not rude, tried to tell her about the sign, but rudely she covered her ears. Very arrogant behaviour and poor customer service; probably like the assistant assistant manager she does not know what citrus are.

We were told an individual would be out to sell us the machine in 10 minutes. Total wait time; one half hour. The salesman was not busy; just apparently taking his dinner break. (The manager said that they were busy in the back, but my husband observed the salesman in the lounge.) It was the store's decision not to have anyone available to sell to customers during his dinner break.

    Now for the fun part...they didn't have any of the machine that we wanted available and sent us to the Havertown Store. Four Lowe's employees told me that Lowe's had cut back on personnel to save money...some at each store. Some of them said that they were beleaguered with so much work that they were missing meals and stressed out. I wonder what the CEO makes. I will never shop there again. Shame.
