Lowes or Home Depot
We went to lowes for the first time in a while.. and it just seemed like the quality and selection were better. Does anyone think this as well?
Maybe it was just because it was new to me.

Re: Lowes or Home Depot
I like Lowes better for the "decorator" stuff
HD is more for contractor stuff...and gardening stuff....

Re: Lowes or Home Depot
I prefer Lowe's. It's just that its a little further from us. We have two HD's right near us, which makes it more convenient to run and get stuff there.

Re: Lowes or Home Depot
I prefer Lowe's. So does DH. We both find that there is more help available, the pricing is better, and the selection on many items is broader. Last time we went to a HD, DH actually stood in the middle of the aisle waving around his platinum card going, "someone please help me, I want to spend money...anyone....help?" He did this no joke for about 5 minutes. No one came to help so he left. This was even after he walked to customer service to ask if there was someone to help him.

Re: Lowes or Home Depot
I prefer Lowe's and so does DH for a lot of the things we need. But...DH has prefered HD many more times than I would have guessed for certain things. When he replaced all of the outlets and switches in the house he prefered HD because they carry Levitron and Lowe's does not - he didn't like the brand they had. I also prefer HD Expo for lighting since they carry bigger mfg like Quoizel.

Re: Lowes or Home Depot
THey just put a home depot up the road from our house, so i go there all the time. When i feel like browsing or comparing prices, ill go to both. I dont prefer one over the other, its just convenience for me.

Re: Lowes or Home Depot
I like Lowes much better than HD but since I live in Commack, Lowes is not convenient for me so I always end up going to Home Depot. It's such a nightmare of a place no watter when you go. I really wish they would open up a Lowes closer to my house.

Re: Lowes or Home Depot
I've mostly been to the Lowe's in Garden City (we both work in the area) and I have never had a good, or even halfway decent experience there. I can never get a sales associate that knows anything and they are the least helpful people I've encountered in any store. DH actually got so fed up after speaking to 3 associates that he said s/t a little mean to one of them and my DH is the most mellow non-confrontational person ever! Even he couldn't take it!
However, I live in E. Northport so I'm limited to HD and have never had any complaints. Well, a few minor ones!
