On Nov. 30 I did a search for and electric meat smoker. The browser came up with several. One at Lowe.s was marked $79.00, 51% off. So I go to order it and the price when ordering was $169.00. quite a difference. I called lowes and talked to a Hay;den. He just said it i s $169.00 and completely ignored that it was advertised at 79. he hung up on me. SO I went back and searched again and there it w as at $79. so I called back and got a Ryan this time. He said he would check. After keeping me on the phone he comes up with an charcoal smoker for $78. I told him that was not t he smoker and gave him the model number JMSS. Made by Masterbuilt. SO again I am put on hold. After waiting for a half an hour he comes back and says it is $169.00. Now I am upset so I explained to him I had ordered a stove from Lowes and it took 6 communications with them to get the right price on that. He abruptly hung up on me.

Lowes lack of professionalism and total mismanagement
Lowes lack of professionalism and total mismanagement of the rehab of my condo is appalling. I started on a good note with the design crew (Sales). We worked together and came up with the cabinets appliances, flooring, doors, new toilets, etc. We gutted the small two bedroom, two and a half baths on the assurances that if we picked in stock materials they would be installed quickly. We started at the beginning of September and now it is December. Every installation was a battle to be done by professional people. The mistakes are too numerous to go over here. However, it took 5 different plumbers on 5 different days to install my 3 toilets. I am still using a dehydrator in the downstairs bathroom because of the mistake of one of the plumbers. I have talked with 4 store managers, 2 customer service managers and 1 regional director. None were helpful. They were understanding and courteous, but of no help in getting materials or personnel to fix anything in a timely manner. The results are I will never recommend Lowes or Legacy flooring for anything that has to do with home improvement.
Pros:
- Sales
Cons:
- Installation people
- Lack of customer service
- Poor follow through with orders

Delivery was a no show. The delivery person failed to call
I ordered several appliances from Lowe’s and Delivery was a no show for the second time, and they failed to contact me. This has been a total disaster from the start. I’ll never buy from Lowe’s again.

Washing machine not delivered
Ordered a new washing machine online with lowes on thanksgiving 2017. Was informed it would be delivered on Saturday November 25. After not hearing from the company that would be delivering the washing machine i called lowes and they said it was not in the system. Upon further checking they found it in the system and said it would have to wait until Sunday November 26 for delivery. Not happy at all.

Unethical Lowes credit card
I opened my Lowes credit card acct with a $4,700. Credit line, then without any warning I wake up to find they had lowered my limit to $300.!!! Mind you I have never missed a payment and always pay higher than the minimum. All in the midst of necessary home repairs in preparation for sale. I called the toll free customer care to get some rude representative from a foreign country who speaks unintelligible english. Im absolutely disgusted and am advising others to avoid Lowes as well as Synchrony bank. Additionally I am contacting an attorney.

Bad customer service.
I bought a chainsaw blade from Lowe's in Hampstead NC. My fault for getting the wrong size. I thought I got a 18" but grabbed a 16". Took it back to Lowes and they wouldn't let me exchange it for the one I need. That is BS. It's there product. The one I needed was a couple $ more. So they could have gotten more money. But I didn't have my receipt, so they wouldn't do anything. Guess I will have to start shopping elsewhere. I have spent a good amount of $ with them over the last year. Kinda felt as if they should have let me exchange it.

Mentor Ohio Lowe’s
FYI: If you need any home improvement work done buyer be warned do not use Lowe’s they play nice until they get you signed up then you automatically go to back burner so they can start other projects they over book jobs and never finish any promptly. They make all kind of excuses and nickel and dime you to death never return calls saying they are to busy in meetings with other victims. PLEASE PASS THIS WARNING TO ALL YOU KNOW to save them THANKS

Aweful Experience Flooring Installation
We chose Lowes to have our kitchen tile floor installed. The installer they contracted never called to schedule an install date. Materials were delivered and still just sitting here. One week of chasing the installer and Lowes filled with excuses and promises. Finally someone called us after a week of chasing them. We cancelled the installation because of unreliable service. There didn't seem to be any importance to our situation/experience from Lowes, as well. Lowes needs to be sure to contract better companies. One month of our time wasted. Very disappointed in Lowes.

Poerter Cable
I bought a Porter Cable cordless drill this summer. The chuck began to work progressively harder as I used it, until today it froze up completely. I took it to Lowes in Longmont CO today to exchange. The clerk told me that I could only return it within 30 days, and past that I needed to get with Porter Cable. At that point I told her to just keep it. If Lowes house brand or private label products are so poor that they only stand behind them for thirty days, they're probably not worth the box they come in. I could not believe this policy. (The clerk was nice however....at least for the time that I was there.)
Cons:
- Exchange policy

Incompetent
My husband ordered a stand for his Dewalt saw, and instead they sent a garage door opener. He called the company and they sent him a return label... for UPS. We live on the Sunshine Coast of BC (NOT THE ISLAND), and there is no drop off for UPS residential parcels. We were therefore going to be charged for them to pick it up from our house. Look it up on UPS, the closest point is in Vancouver. Customer service wouldn't listen and just assumed we were on Vancouver Island and said there was a drop off point nearby. I have to take a ferry to get to the nearest drop off point, which would be around $80 and take most of my day. Not impressed.
Pros:
- There was a sale
Cons:
- Sent the wrong product and i have to pay to have it picked up
Reason of review:
Sent completely wrong product. Sent shipping label that will cost us money to get picked up.

Kitchen design
I went to the three Lowe’s nearest to me in order to obtain a “ body” for a kitchen design, they either had no one there or someone on training, I opted to go to the store furthest away because there where 3 designers on hand Whitehall pa. The woman was helpful, but1- couldn’t pull up destines for previous kitchens done my Lowe’s from other locations,( frustrating)I went back 3 days later to make an adjustment, ,my designer wasn’t in, the designer in that day wouldn’t touch her design, told me to come back when she was in the next day but she was booked. Seems to me that the work process needs to change. does Lowe’s really want to sell kitchens???
Cons:
- Unwillingness to offer assistance

Too bad there isnt a minus rating -
The worst experience for an online purchase Ive ever made... too bad there isn't a minus rating - I bought a new refrig online.. cust service called set up a delivery for the following Sunday, Oct 15h, between noon and 4pm. A total of 3 days from purchase to delivery. Sunday Oct 15th came and went... no refrig, no phone call. I called first thing Monday morning.. excuse they had - only had one delivery driver that day... bad customer service.. but I can accept that. New delivery set up for the following day the 17th of Oct, noon to 4pm. Double checking I called around 1:30 on the 17th to make sure delivery was happening.. I was assured it was. 17th came and went - no refrig no phone call. Seriously.. how do they stay in business when they cant even keep track of and online order to even call and apologize ??? Anyway I gave up - bought a refrig from anther store, I will obviously be disputing and having the Lowe's charge removed from my Visa card.
Loss:
$300
Cons:
- I lost over 300 worth of food refrigerator never was delivered
- Any part of the complete lack of follow up or follow through
- Worst online purchase experience

You placed an order online on a day the stores are closed. It's a little hard for the store to get an appliance and loaded on a truck for next day delivery when there is no one there. You should have been smart enough to consider this and should have contacted the store Friday morning to confirm delivery.
Oh, wow, a whole extra weekend day.
Major felony.
Really set you back.
I'm glad you don't have the job I held for 35 years ; material expeditor for a large manufacturing company ; hundreds of items daily from dozens of sources.
And all before the internet.
You people now are so spoiled by instant gratification that you don't understand the realities of commerce. Sit glued to your screen and expect the world to revolve faster won't work. Sympathy Level = 0
Lol. That's why there is competition.
Customer is always right? Home Depot is so much more accommodating.
But professionals buy at real supply houses.
You sound like a *** and have no respect for the people that buy and put food on your table.
"Lol.That's why there is competition."
LOL... It doesn't matter if you're stupid at Home Depot or Lowes, you're still a moron.
"put food on your table"
Oh thank you old great father for shaking crumbs from your table clothe to the peasants below.
You pretty much sound like a turkey who peaked in high school, has no one that really cares for them, is the person everyone invites to events but hope they don't show.
No REAL man or woman would live vicariously through trump or anyone else. So sorry that the only way you can feel like you're someone is to try and stomp on people who are actually at the same level as you.
Perhaps if you spent more time figuring out a way to please your mate mentally and physically so they don't stray while staying for other reasons than love you would once again be happy. Check with your doctor to see if your heart is strong enough first.
