Oh my gosh, if you have children, you have got to go there right now over the holiday season to see the 8 foot abdominal snowman that they have in there right when you walk in the door, everyone was looking at them and they even have the characters from Rudolph, the reindeer and their Christmas decorations are beautiful.
So many things to buy there or anything for your house they have great recommendations for decorating. They have everything from nails and hammers all the way up to appliances carpeting floor choices. It’s got everything and it’s so fun to walk through. They always give good service there and it’s a beautiful store and it is handicap parking friendly.

Terrible experience spending 13k+ on kitchen cabinets. I learned the hard way to never go to a big box store for a purchase like this ever again. The cabinet “specialist” had little knowledge of her products. She kept apologizing and saying it was because she was new. I still decided to stick with Lowe’s because we’ve had a good experience with Jen at the Pro desk in the past. I had to look through the spec book myself to figure out what products Kraftmaid offered. The cabinet specialist couldn’t answer a few questions for us when we ordered and told us she would find the answers. We tried following up with her several times via email and phone after our order was placed and would not get a response. Then we learned she was leaving out of state. This left our questions and missing pieces to our kitchen up to the cabinet supervisor to figure out. Communication was terrible. We were given wrong information. It took months to finally get the correct range hood ordered which delayed our kitchen remodel. Wrong products have been ordered by the supervisor now several times. We still have island end pieces that were recommended to us to order by the cabinet specialist and cost over $400 that have not been installed because we are missing pieces to install them. We have tried to order several times and have not been successful due to being ignored or the wrong items being ordered by the supervisor. We have given up at this point. Kraftmaid is also poor quality for the money you spend. Many of our drawers have broken and required us to put in longer screws. Several doors were delivered uninstalled to the cabinet requiring my husband to assemble which seems ridiculous for the amount of money you spend for “assembled” cabinets. Very dissatisfied with our experience and wish we would have chosen a local wood worker instead.

I ordered a front door and install from Lowes. I have been lied to about the door being ready for install, wrong pieces needing to be reordered to now the door has never arrived and wont for weeks. Never again with this company! The outside sales rep basically quit communicating altogether. I had to get the Store manager involved finally after several days of trying to get a hold of anybody.
They should realize this cost them a kitchen remodel and a new deck project. And Kobyco will be doing all the windows and doors from now on.
Avoid Lowes. Find local reputable companies.

How do I place an order with a tax-exempt account?
Visit the customer service desk in store to apply for a tax-exempt account.
It appears that I’ve been charged multiple times for an order. How can I resolve this?
These charges are likely authorization holds that are placed throughout the life cycle of your order to ensure the funds are reserved for your purchase. When you place an order, your payment method is authorized for the full amount of the purchase. As items from your order ship, your payment is charged and the authorization is no longer held by Lowe’s. Orders shipped in multiple shipments will be charged separately at time of shipment; therefore, you may see multiple charges, but they'll never exceed the full amount of your order. For orders with longer lead times, your method of payment will be reauthorized to ensure funds remain available until your item is shipped. If you observe multiple pending authorizations, please contact your financial institution as each bank’s policies differ on how long authorizations are held.
