I became distracted by their kitchen aisles, densely stocked with colorful dishware, gadgets, specialty jams, sauces, condiments, pickled products and seasonings. Dishtowels? Yes. Stovetop popcorn poppers? Yes. Need some tea with that tea cup? Yes! It's a store within a store. Maybe it's a good time to reuse that gift basket and package up items for a foodie, host or bride. I started my holiday shopping here and took home a cute set of cat pinch bowls.

They acknowledged the damage before they left and told me to file a claim with Lowe's, which I did. Lowe's referred me to the insurance company of the delivery company, but the company denied causing any damage. They lied and said they took photographs before they did the delivery and that the damage was pre-existing. They only took photographs after, and they weren't even of the damage that they caused. Lowe's refused to help with this. They just referred me to their (Lowe's) insurance, who just turned around and referred me to their delivery company's insurance again, and again they refused to accept responsibility. Lowe's doesn't care if they cause damage to your home. They won't make it right. We're realistically looking at less than $500 in damage to my house. To save that $500, they're willing to lose a lifelong customer (Lowe's is across the street from my house) and the $50,000-$100,000 I would have easily spent there while doing backyard and kitchen renovations over the next couple years. I hope it was worth it, Lowe's.

I am very happy with my experience with Lowe's after buying three major appliances in six weeks…read more Each time I was waited upon immediately (or after one customer) by a friendly and knowledgeable employee. We largely knew what we wanted and had found Lowe's was competitive both on sale prices and install deals. Saved additional money by opening a credit card. Yes, when one goes out, they all go out. First we needed a washer but the dryer was still fine. Assistant Manager Lidia was very helpful in our selection and ordering. It was delivered two days later and install was smooth. Three weeks later, the dryer failed so we were back and Eddie helped us finalize our choice, matched a competitor's price for install, and again delivered great customer service. It was installed two days later. Two weeks later, our dishwasher went out and we were back again, in the expert hands of Jose and again had a smooth, easy purchase. This might sound like a fake review but I am a real customer and feeling the pain of three major appliance failures in six weeks (and now edgy about my water heater and fridge). I hope I can go another few years without another new appliance but when needed, my experience with Lowe's will cause me to try them first, though I will always compare to be sure they're competitive. Disappointing to see some of the negative reviews. We went during non-busy hours and had immediate assistance from very capable and personable employees. The washer and dryer were in warehouse so delivered and installed immediately; the dishwasher is on order but it's not surprising, we don't expect every product to be available overnight.
