Lori H.

This review is for online ordering and curbside pickup only. I don't frequent this location often because of the rundown area and increased homeless population. I just don't feel safe. I ordered some materials online, and this location was the closest location that had my items in stock. After receiving a text notification stating my order was ready to be picked up, I headed over and parked in one of the designated curbside pickup parking spaces. I followed the directions in the link texted to me. I entered my space number and vehicle information and received my order within about 5 minutes. The lady that brought my order was so friendly and helpful. I would definitely order from Lowe's this way again. Their prices are comparable to other big box stores. Highly recommend.

Lowes hasn't caught up with the other home improvement store chain. The ability to find anything on the app and get my veterans discount makes it nice over there. Here, you have to walk around the store and hope to find someone to help. At checkout there was only one person working. Too many people to help checkout for one person to handle. They can use a little more help here.

Ask for Josh when buying appliances! He's a nice, friendly, and knowledgeable guy. He helped me price match and get the best deal on my cooktop, will definitely be going to him for any of my appliance needs.

Fridge died and when that happens you gotta do what you gotta do. Went to all the usual places as well as Bosco and a couple other independent appliance stores. Settled at Lowe's for the price and quick delivery. Got there early and lucked out with the best sales associate ever. Knowledgeable. No time wasting nonsense up selling extended warranty shenanigans. Thanks for that. Got out quick and could have had the refrigerator 2 days later (the day after was a holiday and a pox on you if you had anything delivered on labor day), but needed to do some deconstruction to the space, so we chose 4 days out. It arrived today and installation took 20 minutes. We had a four hour delivery window and they texted us when they were within 20 minutes. Perfect, really. Great experience. Would recommend.

Some examples of scratches and missing paint

Working with Lowe's to install interior doors and closets was the worst experience by far than any other work contracted at my home. It began in December 2022 and was not completed until July 2023. I cost approximately $8,200 for product and installation. One door had to be returned to the fabricator twice which caused extreme delays. Once the door was finally received for the third time, it took additional months to get Premier Services Grp to organize the contractor's to install the door. There were several appts made that conflicted with my work schedule and then would be rescheduled w/o asking what days would work for me. Then finally when one would work out, it would ultimately be canceled for no reason. It was extremely frustrating dealing with this. It was recommended to have the doors painted prior to arriving at my home to be installed and I would NOT recommend this. All but three doors had chips, scrapes, scratches and dents. This was either caused by the installation or prior to. I did not inspect the doors prior to the installation but it doesn't matter. All doors should have been free from blemishes, chipped paint. The quality of the doors was average and the paint was only one thin coat. The edges of the doors were rough and need to be sanded down. I requested a partial refund for the additional paint cost to some of the doors and was sorely disappointed with the response (mostly lack of) from Lowes. It has been several months now that the claim was initiated and never, not ONE time did a manager contact me to resolve this. I have had to call several times to follow up and was promised returns calls that never happened. It is estimated that each door paint cost was approximately $100 dollars per door, however the work order does not itemize this cost per door. I suggested a fair and equitable resolution would be approximately $600, however they only offered $250. These affected doors have to be repainted. You can't just touch up areas that are missing pieces of the paint and not notice the touch up. They have to be filled, lightly sanded and repainted. Never again!!

I am not sure why the reviews for this store are so poor. I have always had a pleasant shopping experience here! This specific review is for Alex in the paint department. I visited a couple weeks ago to purchase deck stain and paintbrushes to redo my front porch. Alex helped provide guidance on best brands to use and provided general knowledge. She was so helpful!

Storming Norman....GOTTA LOVE THIS GUY! Check this out:…read more1. Closing Time 3:00 - current time 3:10 Dollied a product across the street for a customer, note on door said "Back in 10 min". 3:10 Storming Norman returns. One other customer waiting, he lets us both in. First customer takes 5 mins. (3:15) I take 45 minutes of his time "OFF THE CLOCK". Yes, OFF THE CLOCK!!! He's helping me FREE! Not only is he helping get the correct part ( which 9 other big box retailers didn't have or had a clue as to what I needed with no part number or serial number) Storming Norman had a brain AND the knowledge to know out of 35,000 parts ( think of an IKEA Store with everything crammed into 5,000 Sq Ft of space) which part I needed, but also how to reverse the direction of motor so it would suck instead of blow. Only at 4:12 to he inform me that he was supposed to be at a dinner party at 4:30 AND he lives a 30 mins away from the store. So Storming Norman STILL had to close up the store, drive home and more then likely spend another 30 minutes getting purdy for the party! So that means he was at least 5:25 AND then whatever travel time to get to the party! The worse part of it, is he was gonna tell his wife he was gonna be late! I told him "tell her it's all my fault". I will be making my FIRST STOP next time at Ankeny Hardware for ALL MY HARDWARE NEEDS from now on & I live 10 miles, 40 mins of my time round trip to get the right part at the right price the FIRST time is well worth it! I suggest you do the same. You can also order on line or call the store directly and ask for Storming Norman. He Doesn't know that he now has a nickname!

I thought we found a great place to find parts locally instead of ordering online. I asked if they…read morehad replacement parts for my AC unit. They said yes but had to order it in the next day. After we purchased the part and left we realized it was not the direct replacement but a universal part. When we got home and tried to use the part to replace our broken one it would not function after 8 hours of trouble shooting we decided to order an actual direct replacement online for a 5th of the cost of the one they sold us. We wanted to make sure it was not the part before we tried to return it (maybe something else was malfunctioning). When the new part finally arrived 2 weeks later. It took 5 minute to install and the ac works fantastic. So it was the universal part that was not working. I called to see if we could get even a partial refund. When I called the person working was incredibly rude. They kept speaking over me when I was simply asking about the possibility of a refund. They will not take refunds without the receipt which is fair. I know they also had a copy but he said they only use those to look up warranty info. I think in 2026 that is an ancient business practice, but again their choice. I was calm and kind on the phone and was not treated well at all. Even if I can find the receipt, they do not accept returns after 14 days even though the part did not work. So sad to say we will not take any of our business back there due to the lack of customer service and part that did not function.

Service, service, service!…read more Why shop local? Knowledgeable, friendly, escorting, smiley, sleuth-like service till your question is answered. Find it at ACE. When folks say it is cheaper at the big box corporations ~ for the most part everything needed is usually found here and a closer drive. The local neighborhood community relationship is what keeps us coming back here. Something different when the staff call you by name and say see ya next time. This place gives better service than most restaurants and do not expect a tip!

I bet it's a blast to work here. The man at the register was talking excessively to customers to…read morethe point of them trying to walk away, looking very uncomfortable. I placed a pick up order from online and the cashier called the pick up order to be brought forward. The customer service and cashier argued back and forth about whether or not I even placed the order or was at the right store. I confirmed the information through the cashier while he was quite literally hacking up a lung. I can only assume how condescending the customer service people were with how the cashier was also sour to me. Eventually someone else came up to take the line and told me I could go back and they'd fulfill my order. Dumb and dummer were trying to redirect me to purchase a different bag of salt even though I'd already paid for what I wasn't getting. The system ace hardware was pretty stupid and this review isn't about how they couldn't fulfill my order, I don't blame the customer service people for the mix up because that was out of their control. The customer service employees (several. Very braindead expressions) just shrugged and said the only thing to do was cancel the order through my phone. Thank you for reading this novel of a review. Probably a sitcom working there and free entertainment to shoppers. Expect no service. A man was also waiting (from the time I arrived in the store until a little before I left) for a case to be unlocked. Surprising it took so long to help the man considering the group of 19 year old alternative kids in the back.
