“I ordered and had a dishwasher delivered on a Tuesday of August. I was told not to unbox or touch said dishwasher as it would no longer be under warranty if I did. I never touched the box as it sat in my dining room for an entire week. Once two installers came to my house the following monday to install my dishwasher, they noticed dents on the front and reported it right away. Home Depot is now saying that they will not accept the dishwasher or allow me to return the dishwasher. Why? I have no idea. I am currently seeking legal advice.”

“I am a little frustrated...We ordered a freezer in May with a delivery date of August 18th..The nearly $900 was withdrawn rom our checking account when we ordered it..we did not understand why we were paying for something that we would have to wait 3 months for but went with the flow..It is now August 14th and we are told delivery has been pushed back another 3 weeks to Sept. 5th..I called and was told there were people who had been waiting since March..WOW HOW INSENSITIVE..Ahh well welcome to the new norm..Considering that we bought a new dishwasher and Dryer right before the freezer we are going to have to think about who we buy from next time”

“Home Depot's home delivery on products is terrible. Ordered a vanity, and delivery was very late, and product came damaged. Returned damaged product and that took even longer. Ordered a second time, and delivery was lost...? Serious logistics issues at Home Depot!”

“I used to drive out of my way to shop there. Now I will never shop at any Home Depot again. Dan, the asst Manager is an arrogant ass that does not give a damn about customers or customer service. This used to be a great friendly store. Now it just plan sucks, the staff have a screw you attitude, likely fostered by Dan, who will tell you in no uncertain terms he does not give a damn about your business. He does not check to see if the item you need is in the back or at another store, "If it's not under the shelf, we don't have it. The warehouse is closed because of Covid-19, you don't like it get out" So I did, and went to my local Lowes, that was much closer, I only went out of my way to go to Home Depot, Orange City, because in the past I had world Class Customer Service, boy are those days gone. Interestingly Lowes had exactly what I was looking for, and even made an announcement while I was there that they were restocking daily. I guess Lowes warehouse is still open. I have a major Kitchen overhaul I will be starting in a few days, at least $12000, I had planned to purchase the materials from Home Depot, but after Asst Manger Dan, made it clear he did not give a damn about my business, and basically told me to get out because I didn't like his attitude, that business and any future business I have will be going to Lowes or Ace Hardware. Good Job Asst Manger Dan, you just cost Home Depot a customer for life. You have absolutely no business working in retail, if you worked for me I would have fired you on the spot.”

Our house has been turned upside down because we had to move furniture and pack up everything off of shelves and dressers. The employees at Home Depor lied to us this whole time. Need lm ess to say we cancelled our order and went somewhere else.”

“Home Depot in Palatka, Florida, has an employee in the lumber section that deserves a shout out! His name is Roby. Whenever I come into Home Depot to buy some lumber, he is on point! He is knowledgeable and friendly. He is always eager to help and I look for him when I am there and need help. Keep up the good work Roby!!”

“Unbelievably bad experience. Went in-store to order a new microwave and paid for it. Projected install date was June 15th, 2020. On June 9th, received an automated message that installation was delayed until July 1st, 2020. On June 27th, received another automated message that installation would now be July 16th, 2020. After leaving messages for the salesperson (which were never returned), despite leaving 2 messages. On June 19th, I spoke with another employee at the store, who told me there were delays and back orders and that even though the newest delivery date was July 16th, "not to count on it and it may be later". I wrote an e-mail to the CEO, Craig Menear about the problems on the following day. I was finally contacted by both "Tammy" an "Executive Escalator" about my issues, and she delved into it and kept in touch. Make a very long story short, after numerous emails and phone calls with "Tammy" at the head office, and "Carley" of GE appliances, it was determined that the microwave I ordered was on a very lengthy back order (which no one told me about and just kept shifting responsibility around) and that they would provide me with an upgraded microwave at no additional charge, which would be available for delivery and installation on July 11th. Not having heard about the time frame for delivery on the 11th, on July 10th, I contacted customer service again to find out the delivery time for the 11th and was told by "Linda" (who put me on a lengthy hold, while she talked to the GE vendor, "Charlotte"), that delivery would be on July 11th....to the warehouse! However, the actual delivery/installation would not be until Tuesday, July 14th. Not more than 10 minutes later, I received an automated call indicating that the microwave installation was delayed until July 17th!! After contacting customer service again ("Tiffany") and on endless holds, she didn't have a clue and said the item was on backorder! Even the substitute? She didn't have any idea and at one point, asked me, "Has the microwave been delivered?" (Duh!) Following this, I updated "Tammy" with 3 emails about this fiasco this afternoon, but have not yet had a response. This is absolutely ludicrous. Even given COVID, delays, Home Depot hasn't got a clue what is going on, there is no communication, no one knows what anyone else is doing, the status of orders, delivery dates, etc. and it is a mess. All I want is my microwave, which has now been almost 8 weeks since ordering and I was NOT told that there might be ANY delays at the time. Surely, in this day of modern technology, Home Depot should be able to know if it's vendors are able to supply the products, or tell the customer of potential delays. And, certainly GE should also know that to suggest that items are available at the time of order indeed are! Bad communication (or lack of), right hand doesn't know what the left is doing and basically ambivalent about the customer. Although Home Depot is close to where I live and I usually shop, no more. I'll go to Lowe's, which is further away. I know they are also a "big box" store, but my orders with them have not been unsatisfactory. Home Depot.....get a grip on it, people. Just because you are "big" doesn't mean you can't fail and go down, like many other giants in industry. Pay attention and get your act together!”

“I ordered a chest freezer on April 29th with a delivery date on July 1st due to backorder over Chinese Coronavirus. The day before delivery, the delivery was changed to August 5th! The delay significantly impacted my business operations. I asked for compensation for delayed delivery and/or the last minute notice, and was denied. Thanks for nothing HomeDepot!!!”

“Beware of Home Depot Gift Cards and Store Credits! Home Depot is refusing returns on items purchased with store credit from gift cards. On 6/10/2020, I purchased $140.78 in items at the Prescott Valley Home Depot. I used a store credit of $8.70, left over from a gift card. That afternoon, I attempted to return an item that was not what the Home Depot employee claimed it was. My transaction was denied because I used the $8.70 store credit for the purchase. I had my receipt at the time of return and was told by the store manager it would be taken care of, but I would need to write a letter disputing the denial of the return. It was not taken care of as the store manager said it would. I wrote a letter on 6/11/2020 explaining my situation and have not heard a thing from Home Depot. They have locked up my transaction with no possibility of return. Avoid Home Depot gift cards and Home Depot store credits.”
