“I would give them a zero if I could. I usually use my HD credit card, but recently I used my other credit card to pick up a washer box. My handyman did not get the work done because he was ill and I could not install the box for about 90 days. I went back to the store 92 days after I bought it. NO RETURN--if I had used my HD card it would have been a year, but nope--not if you used cash or other payment means. The item is still stocked and current and was unopened, calling customer service--NO HELP. For many years I have used Home Depot, and spent thousands there, after this experience, I will probably shop elsewhere--and I recommend you do to. Prices are OK, but the customer service has become abysmal in recent times.”

“I visited a store in Brooklyn NY, 11234, Mill Basin. Two staffers tried to find an item that I was looking for, but unsuccessfully. Eventually, I talked to Ricky, who discovered where it was improperly located and gave it to me. At the same time, he advised that for my small project I would better take another item instead. It was a great advise I appreciate this. Thank you Ricky! Sept 4, 2014.”

“Rebecca Henderson at the S. Dale Mabry store in Tampa was amazing! She went above and beyond helping me find a product that said only had 2remaining. Searching and finding them for me. Then helped me match the right color trim! Simply amazing. She needs a raise asap! I WAS EXTREMELY SATISFIED!”

“WG67770466 David Order Date: August 6, 2024 Product has been paid for in full for over $1800.00 and on 9/3 is still not here. I have called and requested updates and have been told that I can contact the shipping agent. I have had the delivery date change 3 times since the order at which no one can explain why as well as no one will give me answers as to when it will be in? As a contractor, this is the number one reason I will stop using Home Depot. As a military veteran of over 21 years, I find this to be so unprofessional and completely unacceptable. Final purchase has been made and the word of mouth will follow.”

“Home Depot you have lost our business. You have very poor customer service. You shut down our card because of lack of inactivity but we purchased items less than 6 months ago. Our payments were completely on time and paid off ahead of time but you shut it off because we haven't used the card. Pretty crazy when we've had our account with you over 10 years and spent a ton of money with you. But just so you know that will change and I will take my business account elsewhere as well in that account does over $100,000 in materials a year. Good job home Depot!”

“Purchased a new refrigerator in the Victoria, Tx store. Delivery arrived at my front gate on schedule 3 days later. Then things started going bad. First the delivery men refused to drive their truck under a tree about 250 yards short of the house. So I had to take my tractor to the truck and transfer the fridge to the house. Then they informed me they would not take the old lightning-damaged fridge away. Said they didn’t have time for that. They took the new one out of the box and placed it in the slot in the kitchen, but said they were leaving the old one in the middle of the floor. I finally convinced them to move it to the porch (20 feet away) by giving them each $20. They unhooked the water line with my tools - they didn’t have any - and refused to hook water line to new fridge. They then left, and I spent the next 3-4 hours removing all of the interior taping and packing. I have contracted with a junk removal service to pick up the old unit. Water line hook up will have to get done likewise. Also, HD delivery guys failed to give me an operators manual. I’ll never again buy any appliance or other item from Home Depot which requires delivery, commissioning and hookup. They are complete idiots.”

“In March 2024, I decide to go with Home Depot's fence installation service, which ultimately resulted in a disappointing experience due to subpar work performed by their contractor, TopRail, along with insufficient oversight from Home Depot. Unfortunately, the installation featured multiple issues, including the use of damaged and non-premium pickets, leading to a series of visits from Home Depot to address these concerns. Throughout this process, I encountered challenges in obtaining my warranty information, as both TopRail and Home Depot provided inconsistent responses. On several occasions, the replacement work performed was inadequate, with pickets placed improperly. Additionally, I was alarmed to notice that a minor child was involved in the installation work. I escalated my concerns to Home Depot's executive complaint department, which eventually connected me with the necessary resources to obtain my warranty information. During the resolution process, I was asked to propose a fair compensation for the poor service received and the presence of a minor child on my project. After evaluating the time invested in addressing these issues and the implications for the integrity of my fence, I submitted a number per HD’s request. I received a low settlement offer, coupled with a non-disclosure agreement that absolved Home Depot of any responsibility regarding my fence installation. I decline HD’s low-ball offer and lies regarding the service I received. I used to love HD, but now I am going to look for every opportunity to take my business elsewhere and share my experience with anyone considering HD.”

“We have 3 closet organization systems installed. HD did a good job installing the system but did not return the baseboard shoe molding to it original state. There were 3 broken shelves in the master closet. The company sent one shelf that was too long. I called several times with no response. If you have issues, don't expect follow-up.”

“Ordered four new appliances. Everyone was damaged. One was damaged twice. The worse company to deal with. We finally gave up on one that still wasn't installed right and left it. The aggregation is not worth it. Would never buy appliances from Home Depot again.”

“VETERANS BEWARE***** Home Depot does not recognize a Military ID as a valid form of ID, Go to Lowes or Menards, but all veterans should vote with their wallets, and shop at a store that values us veterans because Home Depot Does not values Veterans at all!!”

“i shopped at the home depot in ocala, florida for a specific item; a ryobi leaf blower. when i got to the area that the blower was in i found that they were all locked up. i looked around to find an employee and finally found one about 7 aisles away. i asked for assistance and he said that someone assigned to that area should be around. i explained that i already looked around so he then said that i should go check around the entrance to the garden center to see if that person was there. he left! i went to where he suggested and found no one. i started hunting again and ended up finding the first person i spoke with. i then asked if i was supposed to search the entire store to find someone or maybe he or his friend could help me. his friend grabbed his phone and dialed a number. i turned around and noticed my wife was also talking to an employee and that person was able to help us. when we headed to the self service check out i noticed how backed up they were. there were 4 self serve stations and 3 of them has customers who obviously needed help. there were 4 employees in the area but two were engrossed in conversation with each other. one station had 2 employees with one helping and the other just watching. there were a number of customers standing by waiting for a station to empty so they could complete their shopping.”

“I’ve been dealing with Home Depot for months now. All I wanted was an invoice broken down into why they are charging me what they are, on top of the full installment, I already paid. I spoke with Elana at the West Lebanon, New Hampshire, Home Depot and she was extremely rude saying that that is not how things are done. All I wanted is a proper invoice and then she continues to be rude and then she hung up on me, not sure whether I’m gonna pay this bill or not, I will never work with Home Depot again on a project. I had already paid $6000.00 and they want another $1500.00 for $2 underlayment and 20 minutes of labor.”

“I ordered a vanity from Home Depot in July for delivery on 08/14/24. Construction on my bathroom begins on 8/15/24. No problems were mentioned with the order until I went to check on the delivery on 08/14/24. The Home Depot site says it is on backorder. My blood pressure is through the roof. Construction starts tomorrow, my house is full of construction material, and Home Depot has left me hanging in the breeze - now, I'm going to have to scramble to resolve their screw-up.”
