“I purchased a LG stackable washer/dryer. It was delivered and the delivery people needed to attach a longer hose to connect for the dryer vent. And then they pushed the unit in close to the wall. However, in doing that they squished the hose. And then I started getting D80 errors on the dryer which meant the dryer was not venting properly - fire hazard. I had my son pull out the unit and he found a hole in the vent. I called Lowe's who kept wanting to refer me to LG. This is an installation issue and just because I'm a few days outside of their 30 day boundary should not be upheld. Lowe's just wants to give a refund on the hose. But how am I supposed to disconnect the hose and have a new hose installed? This must be on Lowe's to correct.”

“Lowe's is the epitome of horrible customer service. Waited almost 2 months for a door and then when the door arrived they didn't bother to cover it for delivery. They initially quoted me one price to install the door, then tried to double the price. Hope I never have to utilize any of their services ever again!”

“Terrible Corporate rules and regulations! I will never purchase from Lowe’s at any location. Home Depot is a better informed place to purchase your home needs !! And they don’t expect you to read a book on there credit regulations . Lowe’s go train at Home Depot !”

“We had a refrigerator delivered before Christmas. When the guys got to our home to bring the fridge in, they realized it was not going to fit through the door, I told them they would probably have to remove the doors, of course they did not want to do that. They wanted to bring it through the front door, all the way through the living room. I had to move everything in my foyer (while they stood there) so that they could get it through. They were angry because once they got it in the front door, it would not go through the door to get in the kitchen so they had to remove the doors and bottom piece (I had already told them they would have to remove the doors) they finally get it in the kitchen, they call me in to look at it once it was together. I was like, well this is a nice fridge but its not mine!! They had unloaded the wrong one off the truck, it was not the one I ordered. After they get that one out and start to bring mine in, the one guy knocked over a vintage stereo speaker and splits in from top to bottom, he simply says "sorry" REALLY? They get the fridge in, they are constantly saying they thought it was going to be an early day for them.. Not my fault that they unloaded the wrong one! I have filed a claim with Lowes for the speaker but have heard NOTHING! Everytime I call, I am placed on hold then hung up on from the "claims department" DO NOT PURCHASE FROM LOWES!”

“we bought a $200 kitchen faucet from the lowe’s on I35. when the plumber came to install it a part was missing. He said it looked like the box had been repackaged. my husband goes back to the store to exchange it. he wanted to check to make sure the part was in there. they said he had to pay for it first and then he could open it. that’s what he did. opened it in front of them and the part was missing. he went to get another one from the shelf and again he was told he couldn’t open it unless he paid for it. Stupid rule!! they had to process an exchange of the item so he could open the next box. Same thing!! part was missing. at this point my husband said forget it. he returned it and told them he was going to Home Depot. he even spoke with a manager and she told him there was nothing she could do. he said so you’re just going to sell a defective product? 3 boxes are missing the same part. she said you can always order it from Delta. Again, Stupid!! We will never go to Lowe’s again. By the way, he couldn’t find anyone around to help him with getting the faucet from the top shelves. he finally had to set off the sensor on one of the boxes and that’s how he got someone to help him. bad experience all the way around.”

“Purchased a refrigerator from them...mistake..big mistake. Delivery was a nightmare, damaged my countertop bringing it into my kitchen. They claimed they couldn't hook it up because I had the wrong water valve. Had to call a plumber who said everything looked fine and he couldn't understand what their problem was. Had them return and explained what the plumber had said and they went ahead and hooked it up....???? Guess they didn't wanna work the day they first came out....I'm still shaking my head over that one. Anyway after a million phone calls or what seemed like a million and being transferred to each and every person that worked for the company, I had a claim filed for the damage and the inconvenience of multiple attempts at delivery and my out of pocket for a plumber that was never needed. Just heard yesterday by certified mail that my claim had been denied. I will never shop at Lowe's again. They are the most underhanded and horrible company I've ever had to deal with. I hope they know how much money they've lost...I'm in the process of remodeling my childhood home and they won't be seeing me or any of my contractors....their lose. Please be warned folks...please be warned.”

“I purchased 2 pre-hung doors ($240) from Lowes as part of a $3000 basement refinish order. When it came time to install them a few months after purchasing I found I ordered the wrong size. I contacted Lowes customer service to find out if I would be able to exchange them for the correct size and was informed that they would not exchange them because the purchase was over 90 days old. I explained the doors were still current merchandise listed on their website, that they were in original as purchased condition with all wrapping and papers still attached and was still refused. I asked to speak to the store manager and he told me and I quote, "absolutely not". I explained to him all we wanted to do was exchange the doors for the correct size. I also told him this was part or a large original order and that we spend a lot of money in Lowes including a $2000 stove just last week. He replied "no matter how much I spend it makes no difference". Well it will make a difference now because I will not step foot in a Lowes again! Any company that would alienate a good customer over a simple exchange for current merchandise, regardless of time, does not deserve any ones business. I speak from experience as I was a merchandise manager for both Sears and J. C. Penney Co. for years. It would NEVER have happened there at those companies and any store manager that spoke to a customer like this one did would no longer have a job!”

“Do not EVER order an special orders from Lowe's. They take your money and then take much, much longer to get the product in. If they say 6 weeks, bet it will be 12 weeks. Use the local guy.”

“Lowe’s is a reputable company, but Lowe’s Protection Plan is a horrible and unresponsible plan. Their working pattern is to give policyholders hard time, shirk responsibility, or delay the process, deny, refuse or assign an irresponsible company to carry out repairs, ultimately causing the policyholders to give up because they cannot bear the complicated procedures over and over again. I went through the painful experience of filing eight claims in two months to repair my refrigerator. They assigned 4 different companies to repair, I got several denies, refiled claims, and complicated procedures over and over again, the refrigerator still not be fixed up to today. We suffered every day without a refrigerator for almost two months, but we don’t want to give up. Although we don’t want to damage Lowe’s reputation, my attorney and I will file a lawsuit if Lowe’s continue this way.”

“A few weeks back, I paid my Lowes credit card off and canceled my card. They told me OK and that it was closed and I was due a refund. They sent me my refund. Later they sent me a bill for an amount owed. I called customer service and like any other place, they give you the run around. They said that the check was sent out after the bill was sent out. I told them that I had closed the account earlier. I was told then that I didn't owe anything and that the check was going to be mailed. I got the check before I received the bill even though they said it was mailed out before the check and that the card wasn't closed out. I asked why I was getting a bill on a closed out account. They said that I owed interest on a purchase. If I paid the whole amount owed on the account, why would I have to pay interest. I got a dirty deal and will never charge anything at Lowes again and probably not buy anything else from them. I cut my card up. So, everyone watch out. You could be the next one to get screwed. Goes to show you that you can't trust anyone anymore.”

“My mom ordered a mahogany door in May. October 16th, the installers came with the wrong size door. On November 21st, an unfinished door was installed. Today December 24th Lowe's says they will not replace the door or pay for it to be finished. Why ask the customer to choose colors in the store and then go through the trouble of getting the HOA approval if you only sell unfinished doors? And to add insult to injury they offered $103 for the delay.”

“Right after I bought a meshsh side trailer that cost $2,848 ! order# 821531589 on 11-24-24 at Statesboro Georgia Lowes. I bought ,and expected delivery of a washing machine .The washing machine got lost in delivery and I didn't get it for a month, and after many phone calls to a recording. And then finally switched to an associate who most times won't even answer the phone or it just hangs up, and you have to start all over again . So you finally have to make a personal trip to the store so you can actually speak to a person. Then they told me they'd reorder and deliver the washing machine, which I did receive! And said the toolbox would not be delivered till the 28th of December. Today I got message that my toolbox was ready for pickup , and they have no record of delivery order.So now I have to pick it up myself! Unless they tell me it's no longer available after waiting so many days ?And I wouldn't be surprised in the least, after the hell I've been through trying to acquire these two orders! Toolbox order #200177323240330780 and washing machine order #200177323240330734 I am highly disappointed and believe I will drive the extra miles in the future, to find a store that may treat their customers with more respect and professionalism.”

“Went to Lowe’s today a few days before Christmas. On the store it says open until 10pm. At 8:57pm doors were locked and employees were walking out. Absolutely dumb. Lost my business for 2025 and I’m a contractor.”
