However, sometimes I buy products from Home Depot and I know I would probably have found something better and more aesthetically pleasing at Lowe's. But, since Home Depot is closer, it got the sale. I am planning to purchase new flooring, a washer, dryer, and a new front door for a property, and this time, Lowe's is where I am headed.

As a newish owner of a fixer upper, my initial loyalty went to Lowe’s. Both stores are about the same distance from my home but Lowe’s is an easier drive and something about it just felt more inviting. Keep in mind, my family owns a small local hardware store so I only shop these stores for what our store doesn’t carry. I purchased a section of privacy fencing from Lowe’s and scheduled the install. Long story short, the fence was installed slightly over the property line (partially my fault and partially the installers fault) and the fence needed to be moved. I emailed with no response so I called to make an appointment. The sales rep no showed. I went to the store thinking I misunderstood and he laughed saying he forgot about our appointment. Again, short version but I happened to have a customer at my job that I knew worked at Lowe’s so I casually complained about the incident. I thought he was a sales associate but turned out he was the assistant store manager and looked into my email correspondence and appointment and ended up agreeing they screwed up and gave me a good discount on having the fence moved. Still cost me several hundred dollars but was very grateful for the discount. That being said, Lowe’s continues to disappoint me. AWFUL customer service. I’ve never had an associate say hello or ask if I need assistance. I recently was looking to purchase a large amount of trim and they were out of stock of the size I could transport so I asked if they could cut literally in half ( no specific sizes) and their saw has been out of commission every time I go. I also purchased a large amount of piping in 2 finishes, not knowing what I needed and I when I went to return what I didn’t need, the cashier told me she couldn’t take back because they didn’t carry that product anymore. I took her word for it and brought my returns to my car and went back and they absolutely carry all of those pieces on the exact same packaging and same price. I walked out. Screw them. I recently refinished my hardwood floors and rented all the tools from HD. That was another nightmare within itself but mainly because only 2 in my city rent tools ( both on the other side of town) and they don’t take cash in the tool rental which I didn’t know ahead of time. Moral of my story: Local is always best for service and quality as well as wider selections on more specific items. (Cabinet hardware and other finish items. The orderable Options are endless) Menards has the most unique and affordable items in stock. (Their light fixtures had me blown away) Home Depot has decent customer service for a big box store Lowe’s for me is only good for when I’m on a pinch and don’t want to get on Uber highway during rush hour.

Nope ... HD people are friendly much more so than lowes. Also HD employees seem to be more knowledgeable and can help answer project questions -- maybe cause they deal with pro contractors all the time. HD has lower prices over all including lumber and scrap. HD managers are more flexible on price matching from other vendors (not just lowes). Also HD gives good discounts on open box. Lowes has better selection on somethings like appliances and fastners. HD carries all brand tools. Lowes does not have milwaukee or ryobe. Rigid and Kobolt are a wash. Home Depot is home town and Lowes is more corporate. Personal story: Both Lowes and HD have battery recycle bins. My son was doing earth science projected and needed battery pack to break and test. No way was I giving him one of my $80 tool batteries. We asked for one out scrap bin at Lowes -- no way, no how. HD ... well they, like Lowes, refused to let us rifle out of the bin ourselves. But HD manager grabbed one for us. My son is now HD fan for life!

@greatirishday

As a veteran, I also do the majority of my shopping at Lowe's because of the veterans' discount but, unfortunately, Lowe's has taken a couple of steps to limit this benefit and I find that terribly disappointing. First, they stopped applying the 10% discount to any items on sale or which would have another discount. Previously they let you use the 10% military discount on all purchases, even items already on sale. Now I've learned that even if an item is not advertised as being "on sale," so it's not ticketed as a special sale item, if you take it to the register and it comes up as the "lowest retail price" in their system, you won't get the military discount. I'm still glad they have the discount and that they make it easy to use, but it's disappointing that they've been limiting its application.

Thanks, Matt! Something I will add is that recently, Lowe's has more items out of stock/unavailable items online, less product in stores, and I have had at least 2 instances in the past month where they could not find a sales associate to answer specific questions about products regarding electrical and millwork. A lot of this could be due to the 'pandemic' but due to these factors, I have been venturing off to HD and Menard's even though Lowe's is much closer to me. And for the record, I have spent quite a bit of time in these stores (and a hoard of money) as I bought my first home less than 2 years ago and am doing a lot of renovation/upgrades.

I consistently appreciate your clips, and the advise you provide. I look for quality, and value. I price compare, do my homework by checking local retail establishments and various online locations before “pulling the trigger” on most purchases. I personally prefer Home Depot far more than Lowe’s, for one extremely important reason. Customer support. Whenever I shop Home Depot, I find sales staff readily available who genuinely invest time, effort and energy to assist me to get what I need and to offer technical expertise on the task I am attempting. On the other hand, I find consistency in one thing at Lowe’s, and it is not a good thing. Locating someone to assist me is like pulling hen’s teeth. No employees are available, and regrettably, my experience has been that when I finally locate a Lowe’s employee, they are not knowledgable about home repairs, and many of them are flat out rude. This is my very generalized observation, but I personally will pay a few dollars more for assistance, knowledge and courtesy. Home Depot is my “to go” preferred location for home goods.

My experience in my area (Honolulu, Hawaii) is completely the opposite. There are a few exceptions like workers in the plumbing department but in general our Lowes store is haphazardly managed, with shopping carts difficult to find and help hard to come by inside and inventory status not accurate. I have had multiple major appliance orders either pushed back months or canceled on me without warning by them in the past year as well. We are in a time where more people are renovating their homes, making appliance purchases harder but if they’re going to claim availability and take my order then I expect delivery. Last October my oven purchase was pushed back to January. Ridiculous. Bottom line for me is it can vary based upon the individual location and how it is managed.

If you are not a veteran Lowes has, I believe, some type of "club" that will also get you a discount. There are a few things you can find at one store that you can't find at the other, but not many. I do prefer Lowes for the feel of the store and the discount, however Home Depot is 7 miles from my house, but Lowes is at least 12 miles away. (small town vs bigger town) Bigger town has both. So depends upon gas and time. Keep up the good work.

I love Lowe's clearance plants - I have gotten so many plants at a great price that I never would have gotten otherwise & was told by a Home Depot employee a while back that they just throw their plants away instead of marking them down!
@ellariel7457

Angie Talmage FWIW, in my experience, Lowe’s clearance section for plants is highly variable, based on location & department manager discretion. I have two Lowe’s nearby, both within 15 minutes of my location. At one, clearance plants are plentiful, well-priced and condition varies from slightly stressed to a small proportion of greenery that is near death and probably unsalvageable. At the other store, prices show lesser reductions, but nearly every plant in the section is beyond redemption, whilst troubled & struggling plants are left on the full price shelf. That said, I’ve found some fine bargains for my “home jungle” at Lowe’s as well. Nice to meet another plant lover. Happy shopping!

Lowes has stepped up its game for contractors. They have a pro desk, bid room, and reward program. Additionally, they offer an automatic 5% discount if you use your Lowes card (this applies to regular consumer card and their pro cards) I use both, depending on which is closer to my job site. But my preference is Lowe's.

I go to both depending on geography or looking for a specific item. The Lowes and Home Depot I go to are both in the same zip code. Lowes for me is easier to get in and out of. You can Google your local Lowes store click on the website and search the product and go straight to the aisle and section. It's that easy. Their lumber prices are higher on 2X lumber. The Home Depit takes way longer to check out. They don't have the loaders that Lowes does. If you buy in quantity that's huge. However Home Depot does have " The Bid Room" which substantially lowers the cost if you are buying more than $1,500 of product but you have to go to a pro desk to ask for it.

I swear they give a knowledge test and only hire those with scores below a certain point because they’re more likely to accept the pay and stay. I have yet to get ANY helpful information from someone at Home Depot. Lowe’s employees are friendlier and confident enough that if they don’t know something, they get help rather than just make up an answer or sell you whatever they see even if it’s wrong for your project. At my one house, I’ll drive clear across the city to a Lowe’s before I drive 5 minutes to the Hone Depot near me.

As a Veteran, I appreciate both stores giving me 10% off my purchases; however, I have a Lowe's loyalty card on my keychain, and it lets me claim my discount without having to dig out my military ID. I also like that both stores have apps, and I use them to find what I need before I go to the store. HD has a clear advantage, however, in that their online inventory updates more quickly and is more accurate that Lowe's. I have wasted far too many trips going to Lowe's looking for something that the app says is in stock, only to find that it isn't because the online inventory is two to three days behind the updated store inventory. Even if it is in stock, you cannot necessarily count on the item being where the app says it is. This is not true with Home Depot; if the app tells me where the item is and that it is in stock, I can depend on it being there when I get there. The main reason that I tend to shop at Lowe's more than I do at Home Depot is because Lowe's is not necessarily closer to my house, but I can get there faster. The Home Depot that is closest to my house is also in a less than savory part of town, and I might not go there at all if it weren't for the fact that there is a Costco directly across the street from home depot, and I often make a shopping trip that includes both destinations.

Hi from North Dakota. Let me give you my opinion. If you have a problem (I had a major one) and you call Home Depot HQ to go above the local manager, you can't get anyone in charge. They have a "customer complaint" dept, that just apologizes and doesn't do anything. I think you can buy a bag of apologies at Doller Days. If you go to Lowe's they get a regional manager, who fixed a smaller problem in less than an hour.

so as an x depot associate few points. I agree with the video, and your opinion, 99%. When we carried EGO they were actually kinda a PITA to deal with, especially on the repair side. we had a customer that took 3 months to get a switch for his mower in. early on their batteries were pretty craptastic as well. that said i can see why it was dropped in order to prevent competition with a depot owned brand. i find depot to be more shoppable but thats because i worked there. i can walk into basically any depot and know where everything is. paint comes from lowes. Also there is one lumber region where lowes beats depot and thats specialty board. by that i mean poplar, oak, maple, more "exotic" wood choices. If you need a couple feet of poplar go to depot as they price by the linear foot. if you need many feet of poplar go to lowes as they sell by the board and it is a couple bucks less for the whole board. The quality is the same, both depot and lowes use many of the same mills and use the same mill for their "exotic" woods. lastly loosing ego means nothing to tool rental at depot. (i started in tool rental, moved to lumber after a couple years, then to overnight restocking a couple years after that) but we have never had an electric mower for rental, they just arent repairable enough yet. we do rent electric chainsaws tho. Fun depot fact, ACE is their largest competitor, honestly lowes wasnt even on our radar most of the time. While they are similar stores they cater to different crowds, depot to the professional builder/contractor/planner or the more, advanced i guess, DIYer. Lowes caters to the general homeowner just looking to modernize or spice things up a little. Both offer plenty of knowledgeable associates that can get you the information you need to do a project, but lowes tends to be a little friendlier to the novice. Thats because you can get a little annoyed when you have been helping pros all day and have a novice come in with 100000 questions 2 minutes to close while you are trying to case a shoplifter. kinda extreme scenario but it happens more than you may think. I find ACE sits right in the middle and tends to get more of the local crowd or the contractor that forgot a couple things and isnt about to schlep back to depot or lowes when ace is right around the corner.

I was a die hard Lowes customer however I have recently switched for the sake of two reasons: 1. Lowes credit card coupled with their customer service; I had a disputed entry on my Lowes statement and was certain that i should not be charged. In order to correct the error online I would have to fill out and submit a two page form and enter arbitration. I chose instead to bring my problem to the local customer service a Lowes, it took three visits before I could get a manager approved resolution which was a cash refund. I was sugared off so they could be rid of me, I of course payed the bill but the problem was not really resolved except to say it became cost neutral. 2. Last year I bought a Craftsman R140 Lawn Tractor at Lowes, Home Depot sells an equivalent model which is branded Cub Cadet, both are priced nearly identical. I had my Lowes 5% off advantage so I bought the Craftsman R140. Last week I performed the first oil change and was ready to change the filter as well but the R140 does not use an oil filter. I got curious about the Cub Cadet and learned that it comes not only with an oil filter but also has a slightly larger engine which translates into longer life. Both lawn tractors are manufactured by MTD and both have Briggs and Stratton engines.

Lowe's employee here! The return policy is one year IF you use your Lowe's credit card. Otherwise it is 90-days. Plants do have a one-year guarantee, but you have to keep the tag and the receipt to get credit for the dead plant. (Sidenote: Returned plants must be thrown into the trash compactor as per suppliers' demands because they might be contaminated with pests that transfer to all the plants in the garden center. So please choose your plants carefully so you don't have to return them and break our hearts! It's so painful to see a beautiful tree or shrub get the death-penalty because you and your spouse can't agree on landscaping.) Purchases over $299 qualify for 6 months of no interest. Higher-priced purchases qualify for even longer periods of deferred interest. But you have to select either the 5% off or the deferred interest. Discounts do not stack, so, if you qualify for the military discount of 10%, always opt for deferred billing. Have a Lowe's safe day!

Went to Lowe's last Spring when I was planning to replace my roof. I wanted to see the product before having it installed. While they didn't have the product in stock they were running a promotion - 1/2 price on materials if they did the installation. Total price was more than $11k but... BUT I got the 5% off. In addition, the 5% comes off the price before the sales tax is applied. Now, truth be told, the Home Depot is 25 miles away and Lowe's less than 5 miles. Regardless, the 5% is still a great deal. There was a time when HD would match it if you showed them your Lowe's card but that practice was discontinued.

I am a Costco/Home Depot guy! Also there is the way HD feels that makes me as a man want to walk around the store and do the guy thing! Thanks Matt!

Just FYI: Knowing about tools, lumber, plumbing, construction etc. isn't just a "guy thing". 😉 I've worked on my homes and properties for over 30 years and prefer Home Depot for the literal "nuts and bolts" for my projects.

I bought a new clothes dryer at home depot, I told the sales gal I had recent lumbar surgery and was now on disability. I asked her if they would set this dryer up for me , she said yes if you buy a new apliance plug and a new vent hose and pay $25.00 , so I did. When they delivered the new dryer I asked if they were gonna set this dryer up, they said sorry we don't do that. Home Depot lied to a disabled person for a damn sale.

@@charliemoore1199 Saw a lot of that in Texas after Hurricane Harvey, 36,000 families in our city having to buy all new appliances. HD was sending out people that couldn't even speak English to deliver major appliances and as you said, refusing to install after they said they would. We'll never return.

Great video and while the final preference is given to Lowe's, I am doing a remodel and have wasted hours in Lowe's before finding my materials in stock at Home Depot. And BTW: My one investigation of Consumer Reports shows that they rated HD paint higher in most categories than even Sherwin Williams 🙂

Lowe’s has a 10% military discount for veterans EVERYDAY. And they thank me for my service at check out. Very appreciated from a Vietnam vet.

@savage2680 Home Depot won't give the discount to every vet...they require a service-connected disability to get a discount. Also, Lowes has linked the military registration to the MyLowe's card, which you're going to be scanning anyway.
