“I have to write a review for Susan Pec! She was amazing! She made my experience at Home Depot so easy and enjoyable. I know nothing about plants and she helped me with everything so I was able to purchase what I needed for my new planters and home. She went so above and beyond for me! Please recognize her for her exceptional customer service! This is for Home Depot in Tustin. Susan is wonderful!”

“Home Depot on Lake Forest has a wide selection of items to choose from. They provide items for low budget projects with the option of buying higher quality items which adds longevity to the project.
They offer a myriad of discounts for contractors, military and credit card holders.
The store is generally neat without a lot of products blocking the aisles. There are an ample number of associates to provide direction and answer questions about the location of products.
Returns are completed quickly and efficiently. I have found that sometimes it's better to purchase extra items so you have options to complete your project without making multiple trips. This has saved time and gas because you can return the excess material on your next project.”

“This Home Depot is exactly what you need it to be. Big, stocked, and generally organized. You can get in, find what you need, and get out without burning half your day.

Staff varies, but when you find someone who knows their department, they’re helpful. Pro tip is go in with a plan and you’ll be fine.

As someone who works locally, I’m constantly dealing with vendors, repairs, and prep work for listings. Clients ask me about places like this when they’re thinking about maintaining or upgrading a home. This location gets the job done.

Parking is easy, checkout is quick if you avoid peak hours.

It’s not fancy. It’s functional. That’s exactly what you want.”

“I visited this Lowe's for the first time. I received a notice that Lowe's was currently offering FREE Valspar Paint Samples to their rewards members until 8/20 and I took this as an opportunity to try Lowe's out.

I've been used to shopping at Home Depot, but not as much at Lowe's.

After I picked out my color, Berry Brown 1010-7, I let the clerk know what I came in looking for.

I looked down at her name tag and saw that it said Michelle. Ooo Michelle really is a gem!

She had a spunky personality, so friendly and smiling and also hard-working and attentive to her customers. There was a guy before me and then 2 other parties came after me. During my 5-minute wait for my paint, she kept making sure to finish as fast as she could. She even hand mixed my paint. She explained to me what I was getting, what would work best for my project and she even told me where I can find some cool new nail polish art!
Color Street!

My check out process was easy and I ended up getting a color I really like!!! It looks much pinker than the sample card, but I'm not complaining, I actually like it!!

Thank you, Michelle and Lowe's. I can definitely see myself visiting again for more home improvement projects.”

“I always loved my Lake Forest El Toro Home Deport. Staff are friendly and helpful. store is well stocked.

Huge thanks to Steve in the Tool Rental department at the El Toro Home Depot! I visited Monday around 2pm, and he went above and beyond to help me drill holes in two bollard covers. Super patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful—this is the kind of service that keeps me coming back. Really appreciate it!”

“I had the most amazing experience at Lowe's during my move today! Everyone was so friendly and helpful, but I especially want to applaud Kourtney—she was incredibly warm and kind as she helped me at self-checkout. Pete folded and loaded boxes for me, and Anthony even grabbed the cart as I left. Such a positive, uplifting experience—thank you so much to the whole team!”

“BETTER VALUE ! Ever since my wife and I landed in the USA over 16 years ago we've been bigger fans of Lowe's Home Improvement stores than The Home Depot stores. Lowe's are usually neater, bathrooms are upfront and have better choices in some areas particularly in the Garden Center. THE PRICES ARE BETTER ! During the heavy rain and gale force winds in Irvine recently some of our stuff on the back patio was damaged. A cute potted succulent arrangement which was a gift to my wife a couple of years ago from a former work colleague was chipped badly. I needed to find an identical size pot which looked similar to replace it. And I looked everywhere with no luck until I popped in here on Thursday....found it in 60 seconds. HOW'S THAT ! In fact I had a choice of 3 patterns all for under $10...my max spend. TOO EASY ! I took it home and did a succulent arrangement transplant and it looks even better now. Friendly service at the checkout. MY WIFE IS HAPPY !”

“What can you say but have mostly everything you need. Perfect for home repairs. Can be a challenge finding help so I use you tube a lot to research first then head over. But have mostly everything you could ever need. Busy in the mornings so I try to avoid mornings and weekends till the afternoon. Love the garden area. You do have to Go early for the plants though for the best choices. My wife say this is my candy store.”

“Angelo and Maria are excellent in Customer support. Rate their excellent service as a 10!!! Angelo is in the garden center and goes the extra mile to make sure customers can find what they need. Maria is very cordial as well and cery helpful in the Customer service area. Always nice to shop at Lowes with such friendly service!”

“I recently had the absolute pleasure of working with the flooring team at The Home Depot in Irvine (on Irvine Blvd, Store #8525), and I can’t say enough good things about the experience...especially Erin, Ben, and one of the store managers, Brian.

From the very beginning, Erin and Ben were incredibly patient and knowledgeable. They took the time to walk me through all my carpet options, answered every question (and I had plenty), and made sure I felt confident in my decision. At no point did I feel rushed or pressured...just genuinely supported. It truly felt like they were invested in helping me choose the best possible flooring for my home and my family.

And then there’s Brian. His level of involvement and care went above and beyond anything I expected. He personally called me, and even followed up with the delivery team, on a daily basis to help expedite my order and keep my remodeling timeline on track. During what can be a stressful home project, Brian made the entire process feel manageable and prioritized. His communication, professionalism, and dedication were exceptional.

It’s rare to find a team that combines expertise with such sincere customer care. They didn’t just sell me carpet, they made sure the entire experience was smooth, thoughtful, and positive from start to finish. I’m incredibly grateful for their help and can’t thank them enough. So glad this is a few blocks from my house, and I will continue to shop here and recommend it to my friends for a long time because of these types of experiences.”

“This is a shout out to Associates Myles, Evan and Mickey the Assistant Store Manager. My Mom was having some problems getting her rebate from a dishwasher she had purchased at Lowes. Myles tried to help by sending an email to the rebate center to expedite the rebate process. Unfortunately, despite his efforts we never got a response. We decided to go back to Lowes to see what else we could do. Myles referred us to Evan who tried to help as well. He got the run around and was on the phone for over an hour trying to get my Mom some help. We brought our dog with us and as we were sitting there, Mickey the Assistant Store Manager came over and adored her, which she loved and he even gave her an adorable toy to play with! Thank you Myles, Evan and Mickey you truly cared to make our day better :)”
