All that is required is 4 machine screws and 4 nuts to mount it but there's NADA, PLUS nothing on the box says "mounting hardware not included" ITS A SURPRISE!! Now I have to get in my f*cking car, drive to Lowes and buy a box of machine screws and a box of nuts, when all I need is 4 damn screws. Not happy at all.

I did and the customer service person I talked with said my goodness, that's quite a story. He said he would get with management at the Thomaston store. No one contacted me from the store. I called the store to find out about my window delivery and spoke with the store manager, about 10 days ago. She said he would speak with the department person and call me back with the info I requested (confirm delivery date and did they want the incorrect window back?), but NO ONE EVER CALLED ME. Do not ever get a special order from this store. OMG, waiting since 7/11/25 for a window, which was sent incorrectly twice now. They keep sending replacement window instead of new construction window!

They carry an impressively thorough assortment of fish stuff (including frozen food and driftwood), cat and dog stuff, and bird and rodent stuff for a small local store.
