Lowe’s

Epic fail with my online order! Waited over 45 minutes and the order was incomplete! Part of my order was 3 fence sections and they sent 2 weaklings to assist me. Ridiculous, if there’s a next time I won’t bother ordering ahead. Makes no sense at all.

HATE THIS PLACE. Sat on hold for 8 mins and it sounded like they just put the phone down and said fuck it. How do you have no knowledge of whats going on with your job, they are just dumb and ignorant at this location.

Usually, I am very happy with Lowe’s, which is why I went to them seeking a professional measuring service for my kitchen renovation. I had used them about 4 years ago, when I was considering just new flooring. I paid 99.00 for the measure. I ended up putting off the flooring job however. I returned last week because I’d decided that it was time for a kitchen overhaul. I was disappointed to find that they would not provide the service unless I was purchasing from AND installing using Lowe’s professionals. Purchasing AND installing? I thought Lowe’s was a supporter of DIY projects. The job would definitely have been a self install, but it was possible that I was going to purchase cabinets and countertops from Lowes. Those items alone are significant purchases. I felt as though it was foolish of them to refuse the measuring service (which I had planned to pay for) because they werent’ getting ALL of my money.

I love lowes. Its supposed to be a home improvment store but they sell everything. This particular store is very clean. The aisles and the bathrooms are immaculate.
They also sell water and gatorade and the prices are very reasonable.

It’s a pretty good Lowe’s if you ask me. A lot of parking, a decent selection, and friendly employees. And for some reason Lowe’s seems to lack the sketchy crowd that seems to perpetually roam the Home Depot parking lot down the street, so that is a big plus.

Still on a quest for Christmas lights, found one more box with the assistance of a helpful Lowe’s employee who was perched on a ladder in the aisle.

I hate this place, but it is the closest hardware store by me. The people there are useless, pretty much stand around and talk to each other, but then get mad if you interrupt them. There is this one old lady that yells at you at the check out by the contractor registers. And every time I’m there it seems like a customer is arguing with an employee and asking for the manager – it’s entertaining, but annoying at the same time. The one good worker there is the paint lady. She seems to be the only one who does her job. Avoid if you can.

This Lowe’s is off US-​13 N. Dupont Highway, near the DMV. Parking never seems to be a problem here because they have their own parking lot and this parking lot seems to be bigger than they ever need. I’ve been to both Home Depot and Lowe’s in New Castle and I have to say that of the two, Home Depot has a greater selection of items. However, Lowe’s itself has quite a selection of hardware and their prices are competitive. They have clearance items mingled with regular items so shop thoroughly. In my experience, I found their sales staff to be very helpful.
