“I had a question about a plumbing product. After waiting over 20 minutes for advice, I left. There was only one associate in the entire store that could help with plumbing, and he was at lunch. Ridiculous! The location of the store is 1-10 and Studemont, Houston. Don’t go there if you need any help! I wasted my time.”

“Home Depot price match guarantee is a joke don't even try, I bought a impact at home depot in Ft Myers Fl found it cheaper on Amazon and another retailer, went on home depot's website to find out if they price match amazon which they do as long as it's shipped and sold by Amazon customer service argued with me said they don't match anything online both the ladies that were working said the same thing i showed them their home depot website and they still argued not a big deal got my money back and purchased online. Then I called home depot corporate and they argued with me and told me that it's up to the store? So how are you going to put a price match guarantee on something and not honor? Is that not false advertising? I'm not going any further with it this is just to let the consumers know not to try to price match with home depot. Now Lowe's completely opposite they will price match and not argue with you.”

“We had cabinets installed over two years ago. One cabinet door has warped and replaced after waiting weeks for the part. Replaced. The new cabinet door warps. Call home depot. Send a technician. He orders the part. Wait another two months. They finally get back to me and tell me that installation is out if warranty,but they were happy to try and steer us to one of their contractors. I'm picking up the cabinet door tomorrowand will install myself.”

“My recent problem they told me next day delivery. I called they mentioned I will probably get it in three days I don’t need it in 3 days. So I canceled the order online, 10 minutes after I did that the order status changed to item shipped. I called them to change that because I needed the item right away, they couldn’t because according to the associate the item has already been issued a ticket number. Amazing how after things moved when I issued a cancellation.”

“Subject: Price Match Issue – Request for Resolution Dear Customer Service management, I recently visited one of your branches to purchase a refrigerator that was listed at $1,495 with a specific item code in your store. However, I found the exact same model listed at another branch for $1,295. Given this price difference, I contacted your Customer Service team to inquire about a price match, as I am a loyal customer of Home Depot. Unfortunately, I was informed that price matching is not applicable in this case, which contradicts my understanding. I have proof of both price listings, including photos of the item price in-store and the price at the other branch. Additionally, I have successfully purchased the same refrigerator at the Brick for $1,295. Given this discrepancy, I kindly request that my case be reviewed. If my claim is acknowledged and resolved, I would like to proceed with my purchase through your store and cancel my Brick Order. For reference, my case number is [ 6261685]. Please review the details and get back to me at your earliest convenience. I appreciate your prompt assistance in resolving this matter Please review the details and get back to me at your earliest convenience. I appreciate your prompt assistance in resolving this matter. Best regards, Samar”

“Home Depot customer service is horrible! I have had issues with appointments scheduled and no one has shown up and when you call the store they tell you it’s your fault. Go to Lowe’s much better service”

“Do not sell a LG dryer, and definitely avoid buying an LG dryer. I purchased one in 2023, and from day one, it made terrible noises. I had copper field Home Depot set it up and paid $1,000 for LG Dryer. When I called the next day about the issue, they told me to contact with the manufacturer. However, LG never sent anyone to my home to look at the dryer. Now that we are out of the manufacturer's warranty period, we had to pay for our own technician. They determined that the motor is the source of the noise. Now I'm out a 1000 dollars . Order number - H6506-332414”

“Refrigerator freezer does does not close properly. Serviceman cannot fix. Plans to deliver another, however I want the new one checked for proper function BEFORE installation in my home. You want me to pay you to check whether a product I have purchased works after you have installed it??? I don't want people installing defective products over and over again in my home. I don't want to deal with spoiled frozen food because you delivered a refrig with a freezer door that pops open every time the refrigerator door is closed. Madness!!”

“Home Depot service has not let me down once, rather 3 times. I will never purchase a large product from home depot again. The first time was with a patio door install. I wanted a standard door. They ordered custom door with the handle on the wrong side, therefore they returned it and sent me a second door. A two month delay. I later purchased a fridge. The fridge they brought me had an issue with the water dispenser. I called to return it within 24 hours. I decided to exchange it with a different fridge at Home Depot. They were supposed to send a person to pick up the fridge that was not working, however they did not. They assigned a person to fix the fridge. I tried to explained that it was supposed to be picked up. He did not speak English, so we communicated via Google translate. They later sent over the new fridge. The old fridge was still sitting in my house. They picked up the old fridge, however they did not communicate about the pick up. I was told that I could not get a refund because I never returned the previous fridge! It took close to 2 months to get a fridge that worked. It took about 3 months to get a refund from the first fridge. This year, I needed a dishwasher. We decided to give Home Depot one last try. My husband ordered it on-line. We were supposed to receive in on January 17th. We received an email stating that it was delayed to January 31st due to being on back order. We understood. On January 30th, we received another email stating that it is delayed to February 10th. I have no idea if we will get it by then, but this is yet another delay on an order. We were offered a $50 gift card for the delay. It is honestly insult to injury after 3 failed services. Never again. We gave it 3 tries with Home Depot. All were a failure.”

“Plants look terrible should be discounted like Lowe’s does and half of them should be free as they are past the point of saving. They are in a dark cold area of store these are tropical plants and need to be kept at a warm temp with light.”

“Former employee of The Home Depot for over 4 years. I would describe it as: amazing when its good, when its bad, look for a new job. This company allows employees to have money taken from their paychecks and endangers them to the point of almost death. TLDR - Management is too cowardly and will get someone injured or killed because they won't have an open conversation with troublesome employees, and theyd rather sweep everything under the rug and pretend nothing is happening and praying it wont. Management has ignored multiple emails, meetings they even agreed to. So they know money has been taken from employees, that our lives have been endangered. They DO NOT CARE. Management is either ALLOWED, or TOLD to lie, without consequence. Long version. Fat trimmed. When I got hired I was told within 2 years of being "okay" at my job, I should be expecting to be earning around 100k. This was a complete lie. The TRUTH.....is that ONE associate, ONE year earned that. This was told to myself and about a dozen others. When I alerted his boss of this discrepency, nothing happened. While I was in training in the field, the gentleman that trained me straight up tried to sell me meth on the clock but also partook himself. I alerted this to the boss that told me my pay expectation, nothing happened. When nothing happened I went to his boss, nothing happened. LUCKILY, for several years and MOST of my time here I had good bosses, so a few years went by. My managers started dropping because they were done dealing with the guy that did nothing, because all the work was shoved on them because the guy that promised people a crazy amount of pay and protected a meth user and dealer was and frankly still is, useless and more bad for this company than not. Now that all good managements gone(or inaccessable to me), lets get to the sad part that I HOPE.....someone big enough in the food chain will look into this, because a small pile of spoiled appled will ruin more if they are not trimmed. I got my SEVENTH boss early 2024. For perfect context, I had 2 broken feet(on top of a lot of general chronic pain), requested a lighter work load (was denied), requested to only have at MOST 8 hour shifts (3-4 days a week were over 9) I was covering a 150 MILE RADIUS, because we do not hire skilled, or reliable people when we are in a crunch, just someone with a pulse. I was written up once in my 4 years prior to this 7th boss due to a person in texas purposely putting gap in my schedule which was not discussed or agreed on as I was there to do as much as possible. (this was when texas had the nasty ice storm a few years bad, I was there for about a month helping) In less than a singular year I was written up 3, technically 4 times if you count my firing. Lets go over those. My first write up has no information or details due to my manager. So I will neither take that as is or defend myself. Two, due to my manager simply not having a conversation with not just A store associate,THE ONLY ONE, that has had guns pointed in my face. Because I called the associate out in the reschedule for that they need to pay more attention, go over with customers the correct information to avoid these issues. I was written up. Third. I had recently moved within 2 weeks. I was going to an area about 120 miles round trip away, thats well over an hours drive. A customer had unfortunately gotten called into work and my boss had texted me before I had even woken up which he knew. asking me if I was willing to push my workday back to accommodate the customer. This was originally posed as a QUESTION, or...an OPTION. I had called the customer and explained I had to be back in town before 5pm and I was unable to start my day roughly 6 hours later than normal. She understood this and rescheduled without issue. I had a 1 on 1 meeting with my boss that morning anyways. I was told that wasn't an option, even though it was worded as one. I was then written up, and what irks me the most is I told him, I had responsibilities I had to be in town for, because if I clock in at 8:30AM, My shift should be DONE bye 4:30, he apparently didn't know that, even though it was in a text message,crazy how managers get to lie to write you up. My fourth write up was because my boss is either a pathological liar, had a vendetta or there is just something wrong in his electric meatball. Someone was not doing thier job and I simply told him I was not going to do someone elses work when they can do it themselves, they are capable, and thats also POLICY AND PROTOCOL. It is crazy that this massive company protects meth dealers, management that gives you false information about your pay, lies to you (this guy still works here), pathological liars, management that doesn't do their job/lies to employees. Management(at least mine) was allowed to continuously lie or leave out VERY IMPORTANT details to negatively impact others and the management(bosses) above did not care when you told them that. At the end of the day what happened, happened. The issue of management not taking the following seriously: associates doing their job so wrong it takes money out of others paychecks, and associates getting one or if not both wrong being address and or phone number where guns/weapons get pointed in your face/direction. I would imagine NO ONE wants this while they were work. But they dont care. Have fun shopping here, they are willing to have someone be injured or killed due to other employees not doing their job right.....daily. Where is the accountability? Where is the responsibility? Where are the leaders, the managers? This company will continue to fire, hire and put people in danger because they refuse to open their eyes. They liked to believe progress is good at any cost. Even if that could be my life, maybe yours if you work here.”

“I will never order an appliance at home depot ever again. Ordered microwave, dishwasher, and stove. They refused to install everything but the stove... which all they did was plug in. I could have done that. I paid for the installation of these appliances but since they wouldn't do it I called and was promised a refund in 3-5 business days.... that was almost a month ago. Every time I call and check on the status of my refund it's always the same line "It's in process" "Were going to push it through" and it NEVER has shown up. They owe me $340... I fear I have lost my money to these crooks!”
