“I had my blinds installed at my new home in 1st week of June 2022 (7 customized and 8 instock) all the customized ones do not land on the base and the one above the bathtub is see through from outside. when i complained the same to LOWE it went on for 5 tickets and 6 months and the final thing is that it is customer preference as that is the defect with Bali blinds. why would a customer want a see through blind on bathtub rediculous. Pathetic experience. no one even bothers to provide an explanations, i'm the one whoc has to regularly follow up with LOWES. it has been going on for 6months and have no patience now.

“Purchased thousands of dollars of merchandise and tried to return 300.00 of goods I did not use. Would only give a store credit because receipt was in another vehicle out of state and would not give me my money back. Horrible return policies Do not purchase anything unless you plan on using it or you get stuck with it Anyone want to purchase a store credit? Home Depot earned my business after this experience People working for them were very congenial but the store policy is robbery”

“Ordered an outdoor Christmas decoration on Monday, November 28th, and was told I would receive it two days later which would be on Wednesday, November 30th. So I figured it would be delivered directly from this store. On Friday, December 2nd, when I hadn't received it, I called the store and was informed it was being shipped out of New York and that it hadn't been shipped yet and would be delayed. If I had known it would be shipped from New York I would never had ordered from Lowes. Very disappointed in them. I can't complete my outside decorations without this set of candy canes. When will I get them? Who knows?”

“I purchased a Whirlpool washing machine from Lowe's in Houston on Loop 610 W. Purchase date 10/9/2022 and delivery 10/13/2022. Within two weeks the machine sprung an oil leak. Lowe's would not replace and instead referred me to Whirlpool Warranty. It took two weeks for the repair service to come out. I was informed part would need to be ordered and repair would be made in two weeks. Dec. 1 I was informed repair will be made Dec. 14, six weeks after machine broke. Now I am afraid this may be a lemon. Laundromat expenses are $25.00 a week. I bought a faulty product and have not had timely service. I will no longer shop at Lowe's or buy another Whirlpool product.”

“Went to the Lowes on 1500 North Croatan Highway in Kill Devil Hills NC. I have been going there for years. I had a piece of lumber to be cut. I could not find anyone to assist. I went up to the managers counter. The manager said he would not cut this. He handed me a hand saw and said I could do it. I left and went to Home Depot and had them take care of it.”

“I had an in store credit and wanted to purchase an item online that they did not offer in the store. I could not purchase the item using the in store credited. The store and customer service over the phone would not accept my payment with in store credit. They said it was a policy, that I can't use in store credit for an online purchase. I'm taking my business elsewhere, over $55, where I already spent my money.”

“I bought a new dishwasher from Lowe's. A complete mistake, I was told they don't uninstall the dishwasher to be taken away. So, I had to hire someone to do that, when Lowe's delivered the new dishwasher the next day, the delivery guys put it in my kitchen, but would not even unbox it never mind install it. I was NEVER told that the dishwasher would NOT be unbox or installed. I have bought many appliances in the past and the appliance was always unboxed and installed. DO NOT USE LOWE'S FOR APPLIANCES unless you have somebody handy around the house that can do this type of work.”

“Purchased “style” Chinese house brand patio heater, got one year probably 6uses before it wouldn’t work. Lowes won’t take back after 90days! Bought new upgraded version opened box and it’s dented, scratched and can’t be assembled. Another piece of garbage from Lowes Chinese house brands Style, Roth and project source to name a few! DONE WITH LOWES JUST ANOTHER CHINESE DIDTRIBUTION OUTLET!! There’s better out there even if it costs a little more!!!”

“Had a person do estimate for door installation. Once I was ready for installation I called and went to Harrisburg location to arrange installation only to get the run around. I called 50 times the least and then went to location twice to make appointment since over the phone was not successful. Each time I was told they would call me or the person I spoke to was unable to perform task. I recommend a different location.”

“Never go to them for ANY install services. Usually I go to Home Depot but lowes sells pella windows and doors. Placed my order in April and was told 4-5 months until install and it would take 2-3 days to install. Well now lowes says they want to install at the end of December during Christmas time. 9 months later. In the winter. And I was told the job would take14 days now to install. The delay is because the store didn’t order trim back on august 8th. When I requested it from the salesman and the store. I asked 5 times if the trim had been ordered I was told not to worry about it. Lowes decided to wait and ordered the trim October 29th. Guess what, it wasn’t ordered correctly and we waiting for two weeks to be told it’s backordered for another month. We asked lowes to fully refund the order for all the mistakes/lies they made. And they said they would charge us 20% restock fee. We didn’t want to pay this unfair fee so we asked if they could at least give us 10% off the order. After the manager talked with the store and district manager lowes told us no. They would rather refund 80% of the order than give us a 10% discount for all the mistakes/lies they made and admitted to. At the end we still don’t have a date for our $60,000 window job. They did offer a refund of $1,000 for all the issues. But they won’t give us that small refund until the job is completed. They have lied to us so much at this point I doubt they will. —————————update—————— I called the number lowes responded with below. After 1hr of waiting I was told customer service can’t do anything. No waiving the 20% restock fee. No 10% discount for the lowes mistakes/lies they admit too. NO HELP. Just a waste of a hr of time. Just trash service. They obvious just responded to my review to try to look like they are trying to do something. Don’t be fooled. ——— so after speaking with the install service corporate manager ( the top person. They refused to transfer me to a high up manager and had a major attitude), the store manager, the district manager, and several assistant managers, no resolution was found. And we are still waiting for an install date. The store doesn’t even have an installer on my order anymore. Because the original installer doesn’t install past November because of the cold. NEVER HIRE LOWES for anything. There installers don’t work past November but they expect me to get installed in winter. I repeat NEVER HIRE lowes”

“Purchased a new Maytag washer that is a disaster. Loud noise, afraid of fire. Lowes will not replace, only 3 weeks old! Lowes CEO won't help! Buyer beware”

“Just over 2 years (right after the end of the warranty) and my $30,000 kitchen cabinets are falling apart from CHEAP GLUE! Lowe's hires the least competent contractors, uses the cheapest materials and charges you the highest margins. NEVER AGAIN!”

“Purchased a dishwasher three weeks ago. It was in stock in the store. Still not delivered and installed. Keep getting “the run around” for the pre-install service call. They set up appointments but do not show up nor do they bother to call to let me know. Worst service ever. I also purchased an extended warranty but if this is the way they operate, I doubt it will do any good!!!!”

“I was planning on ordering flooring for my home. Worst customer service ever! I paid for the flooring and a month later after many unreturned phone calls as well as visits to talk to a supervisor, who was never available, my order was cancelled and the manager could care less. Needless to say my business dealings are finished with this company”

“If you want customer service or even, basic human interaction with politeness, DO NOT do business in the Lowes in Sarasota, Florida.....no training, ineptitude and a self defeating attitude permeates the customer service , general staff and managers. The automatic phone system will direct your call, but I had never had my call answered under 20 minutes of ringing! Beware!!!!”
