Lowes Reviews and Complaints

They only take that survey when they are pissed. Hardly ever to give a thumbs up.

It's not a scam, it's a mistake, an inconvenience

We will miss you here at Lowes. Your feelings are somewhat normal for someone with no work ethic, as it is necessary for you to blame your employer for your lack of skill set and talent.

Sadly, your next employer will be the same, and you will continue to find wrong in every workplace you are in.

I assure you we all have opportunities, no matter the position, however, you are sitting in the wrong seat to be throwing stones. Your mindset is undermining others and vicitmized; change that and you may be happier with your next job.

That's why they are "seasonal" employees...not promised FT

Lowes no longer hires FT employees. Like any service block employer, they know "cheap labor" is everywhere. Average employment time for a new hire at Lowes is 90 days.

It's not just Lowe's, you find that in most work places today.

There are so many people out their looking for work they know you can be replaced within a day.

I actually work at Lowe's in the paint dept and paint houses on the side for a living. The bubble issue your having is not because of the paint but because of the type of roller your using.

Its very important to make sure your surface is clean and free of debris. Make sure you know what your painting on top of. If the walls have a oil base on them, stick with a oil base paint or primer them with a oil base or latex base primer and then paint them with a latex paint. This will stop the problem of peeling and in some cases, bubbles.

IF YOUR NOT SURE OF WHAT TYPE OF PAINT IS ALREADY ON THE WALLS...POUR ALCOHOL ON A COTTON BALL OR RAG AND WIPE THE SURFACE. IF PAINT COMES OFF THEN ITS LATEX, IF NO PAINT COMES OFF THEN ITS OIL BASE. The truth about ANY brand paint that has (Paint + Primer) written on the front is ONLY for surfaces that are already painted with lightly colored tint and in good condition. If your painting over fresh wood, new drywall or dark colors, a pure primer is needed.

If your planning on buying primer, have a employee tint it gray for you. Gray primer tends to cover up existing paint a lot better (dark colors and stains), it will also bring out the true color of your top coated tint that you picked out....and in less coats. I have had customers come in and say they didn't like the Valspar Reserve or Signature and with just a few questions I asked them, 9 times out of 10, it was something that they didn't do before painting. Don't expect to know everything because there's always something new to learn about paint...that's what we're there for, to help you with your projects.

Hope this helps! :)

The paint seemed to apply well to the walls but when it came time to remove all the tape the paint peeled off with the tape. Now it looks like *** and have to redo the room or just live with the *** paint job.

I would not recommend this paint to anyone seems to be very poor quality paint for 45/ gallon. I wish I could get my money back

You got that right. Cheap paint like Glidden is much better.

It's not just their paints that suck, so do all their coatings.

Google Valspar sucks. Nobody has had good experience with Valspar paint.

well my husband just had the same issue with a can of Valspar...peeled right off the wall onto the roller...not buying that paint anymore...

I am having the exact same issue, bubbles in the paint. If you try to "flatten" the bubbles, the paint peels right off the wall!

I primed the walls prior to painting, requested paint without primer and got it anyway. My son next door had the same issue. Valspar is ***! And for those here that swear on this junk has to be running PR for Valspar.

There simply is no other explanation.

I will be returning this product for a refund and if that is a problem for Lowes, God help them! :(

Not to be rude or frank but if this is true why would it take 3 times to figure that out? To be " talked into it" common sense says if you don't like it, don't use it.

You'd think you might have questioned buying their paint after the first bad experience but it's your own fault you bought it a third time.

Valspar from Lowes is absolute ***. Dont be fooled by this sub par non covering garbage.

Go with Sherwin Williams and before you buy into any other comments just look at consumer reports or any other legitimate testing and review co. Valspar is always rated Low.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience. Please tell me you returned everything!?

Haha you are just an *** who has no clue how to paint.

It's not the paint - it's the painter!! Valspar is an awesome paint.

Bubbles=roller used

Paint/primer=lazy

you must be ***, ive never had issues with lowes paints

Wow who are you.... Take the easy way out hire some one.....Lazy

All paint/primer are horrible. Never take the easy way out.

That extra step may be the most important...especially on a dark color like yours.

I have Valspar paint on every wall throughout my home with no problems, but we did use Kliz primer. Just did a lot of research first.

What another frivolous lawsuit. Pissed Consumer website is great one of the few website where we can exercise our First Amendment Rights

IF these lawsuits exist, please provide more details.

Do you realize that pissed consumer already has lawsuits against them?

You're pissed about a survey...you've got to be kidding me...so funny

And how did this cause you to $5000 in monetary damages???

The Lowes survey is so easy to find and do that unless you can not read there is no reason you can not manage the site.

Enter info from your receipt.....

Seems simple enough to me.

You can be summed up in one word! Its R E T A R D !!! :upset :upset :upset :upset :upset :eek :eek :eek :eek :x :x :x :x :x :( :( :( :( :( :(

You could of split your purchases. Walmart *** me off everytime I go to the store, but I still go. While you leave Lowes, someone pissed off at another home improvement store will take your place, so I'm sure you won't be missed.

I do not work for Lowes, but it has come to my attention that they only allow 1 discount to be used at a time. If you wanted to use the military 10% discount you could have, but you couldn't use the coupon.

However you're another one of those entitled idi0ts.... Menards the 3rd largest home improvement store in the United States stopped giving a military discount because they're not special! Eventually everyone becomes a senior citizen so you get those discounts... However, people like teachers/doctors/policemen/fireman they don't get a discount...

Military is a career choice nothing more...

I have coworkers who have been in the military and they think you people are STRAIGHT UP FOOLS! YOU DIDN'T JOIN THE D@MN MILITARY FOR A 10% DISCOUNT.....

You just stated in your complaint that it was your fault but giving that credit to Lowes. Geez, this is funny. Straight up your fault buddy.

People never understand extended warranties, they only take place once the manufacture warranty has expired. Extended warranties only cover issues that you did not cause yourself.

Buying a gas powered item then allowing it to sit around for 1.5 years is just idiotic. You should have ran it a few times changed it's oil a few times, emptied it's gas a few times, used a stabilizer at least once.... Lowes didnt sell you a defective anything, if you want to be angry with anyone be angry with Troy Built, or your dumb@ss...

Most items come with a 2 year manufacture warranty you should have contacted the manufacture to see if it would be covered under their warranty, Lowes extended warranty doesn't start until that expires.... Not to mention all retail stores consider extended warranties 100% profit only fools buy them.

I would also be angry if my "carbonator" was plugged up also.
