I've stopped buying used appliances for that very reason. --166.137.xxx.xx

Home Depot has free delivery. --76.120.xx.xx

In my part of MA Home Depot uses Spirit Delivery 176 Grove St Franklin, MA. They are the worst company I have ever dealt with. I purchased a refrigerator and had it scheduled for delivery, it was supposed to be delivered on a Tuesday between 11:00 am to 2:00 pm. I got a call Tuesday night around 6 pm telling me they had to reschedule. After I had been calling and getting no return call to my message since noon. The next day they pulled the same stunt, both days my wife took off from work. The 3rd time I took off from work and same thing they canceled after they were supposed to be there. I said I can’t reschedule we’ve taken off 3 days already, you need to deliver it, and the lady said if you don’t stop yelling I’m hanging up. I said I’m not yelling (I wasn’t) I’m explaining to you I can’t reschedule and she hung up on me mid-sentence. I ended up having to rent a truck and pick it up from Spirits warehouse myself and hauling the old 1 away. After weeks fighting with Home Depot they gave me a $250 dollar store gift card for the disposal fee, rented truck, and aggravation. Look up Spirit Delivery reviews. And check if you are buying from a Home Depot in MA if they use Spirit Delivery, if they do RUN don’t walk out of the store and buy the appliance anywhere else. I will not buy another appliance from Home Depot as long as they are using that company. --174.192.xx.xxx

The Lowes store in our town is horrible with deliveries too.We have our handyman pick up the appliances. It usually takes them a half hour to find the appliance and then there is nobody to help him load it on his rented truck. Not a good situation. --24.233.xxx.xx

Lowes or HD (can't remember which one, perhaps both) uses subcontractors that I would never allow in my properties. About an hour away from me some subs got arrested for being drunk and one hitting another with a hammer/hatchet/ax/I forget. They were not even residents of this area - from perhaps Tennessee. the one whose photo they showed looked like TOTAL low life. --72.70.xxx.xx

I like to buy open box floor samples for half price at Lowe's. Sometimes also at Home Depot. I bring my own truck and haul it away or have them do a free delivery to my Storage Facility or house and take it to my buildings myself. --47.156.xx.xx

Then again, my town is about an hour away from their store, so perhaps if I was closer, HD would offer free delivery. The only problem with Lowes is that I don't get free next-day delivery that in-town people get, but they always come through my area on a designated day of the week, no charge. --96.46.xxx.xx

I think the problem with either company is they have truck drivers also trying to be mechanics installing appliances. The last gas range I had installed, they were going to install it without the tip bracket and when I asked about it, they seemed clueless. They found bracket and screwed it to the floor, but the range still was able to tip, as they didn’t align it properly. Finally, I got in there with a tape measure and they repositioned it per my instruction, and it worked. And same thing with leveling any appliance. I had one delivery guy who thought leveling meant that the refrigerator didn’t rock. I broke out my level and told him what feet to rotate and finally we got it. The list goes on and on. I’m not sure what the solution is, perhaps it’s just hire someone you trust to do the actual install. And Costco is not better btw. --100.1.xxx.xxx

Sometimes - if they have the deal that you use the mylowes you get 10% THEN you get the 5% OR the 0% to boot. Along with free delivery - BAM. --69.201.xx.xxx

For all I know, we've bought BACK our own appliances over time, but it's cheaper and faster than having something repaired in situ! --50.82.xxx.xx

Again, here, Home Depot delivery is free. No one has addressed the concern the Lowe's doesn't install gas appliances and HD does. That is huge. --76.120.xx.xx

Never miss an opportunity to buy dent and scratch. I put them in my wearhouse. stoves, water heaters and oups paint. For $9.00-- 5 gals X's 2 pails of paint i mix and match to make my own color for exterior. Yes even when it says interior I'll mix um. --99.103.xxx.xxx

I've always bought them through Lowe's, although Lowe's seems to be having more issues with their logistics and delivery lately. I'm not sure what's going on with the company? --72.188.xxx.xxx

I've run into this too, except Lowe's told me they wouldn't install the bracket at all because I have tile floors and they didn't want to accept liability for drilling into the floor. Luckily it's not a hard thing to DIY so I just used a diamond bit and put them in. --72.188.xxx.xxx

Lowe's credit card gives 5% discount. --71.185.xx.xxx

Where I live , HD is my best option. Free delivery and install. --216.23.xxx.xx

Gas hookup takes 10 minutes. Lowes is the cheapest by far here, to the tune of at about $100+ per appliance with discounts. I'll take $100 for 10 minutes work any day. --50.26.xx.xxx

No way is HD $100 more than Lowe's. --76.120.xx.xx

Anybody know? --68.10.xxx.x

So you are right it is $70 difference not $100, maybe $74 with difference in tax and $83 if you get your own flex. So I revise my statement, I'll take $83 for 10 minutes work any day. --50.26.xx.xxx

When replacing gas ranges/ovens, it's wise to test the oven for excessive Carbon Monoxide and adjust accordingly. I have seen MANY sleek, shiny, brand new ovens off the charts for CO. There are two adjustments inside the oven: gas pressure and an air band. Testing requires a specialized combustion analyzer that all good HVAC techs should own. --24.103.xxx.xxx

Also, returns to HD are very easy! However, they have offered me cash as the refund option (also to refund the card), which can be messy when dealing with contractors. --70.183.xxx.xx

EVERYONE CHECK OUT SEARS FOR APPLIANCES, THEYRE GOING THROUGH SOME AGGRESSIVE FINANCIAL CHANGES, AND NEED TO REDUCE THEIR INVENTORY OVERHEAD. --70.183.xxx.xx

If you live in Michigan or in northern Ohio or northern Indiana, ABC Warehouse carries about 3-4 times as many major appliances as Lowes and HD. And because their salespeople work on commission, I've always been able to get them to beat the best price I could find at a big box store. --50.225.xxx.xx

Horrendous delivery issue with HD a few years back involving 4 appliances being delivered to 3 units, one of which was occupied. They kept me there waiting until almost 9PM on a no show and then couldn’t deliver for another 7-10 days. Did fight and received a $550 discount on the appliances as part of a pro order. Lowes until recently did all deliveries in house. Never an issue until they went to 3rd party delivery. One delivery group refused to “install” the stove. He told me to call my electrician. I pitched a fit and he attached the plug. I always buy 2 not remembering whether it is a 3 or 4 prong outlet. After every delivery I stop by Lowes and ask for the manager to complain about the 3rd party delivery problems hoping they would return to in house delivery. I must say that last time the delivery guys were great, on time, no issues and I did stop at Lowes on the way home to let them know how well it went. Funny enough, there was another landlord ordering appliances complaining about his last delivery. I assured him, if he got the same group I had it would be a pleasant change. --24.61.xxx.xx

I buy them used and the guy delivers and installs. --208.54.xx.xxx

--24.11.xxx.xxx

I prefer Lowes for nearly everything including appliances. Prices on appliances at Lowes and HD are nearly always comparable as is free delivery, I believe. I too buy Lowes coupons to save 10%. When my handyman buys things though I have him go to HD b/c they have "text to confirm" (they text me and I press 1 to approve) and Lowes does not have that option. --172.58.xx.xxx

EVERYTHING THAT HOME DEPOT TOLD ME ABOUT THE DELIVERY WAS A make believe story, not the truth. --47.156.xx.xx
