“Absolutely phenomenal store, amazing selection, great help, great tools, better than most pricing. My main tool source in the area, has a far more comprehensive tool selection than bath industrial and they actually have the items in stock. I can tell the person ordering actually has a brain and knows what contractors are looking for. From oversized pliers, impact sockets, router bits, bird seed and boots this place have it all. I’ve been there 3 times this week and will be back again, for nothing special but you never know what you will find! Also a tremendous firearm selection with knowledgeable staff.”

“Amazing Customer Service!!!! We bought a snowblower last fall that they kindly and conveniently delivered, full of oil and gas. We did have an electrical problem with the machine during the first snow storm (which ended up being user error!) and they came out Christmas Eve to pick up the snowblower and returned it December 26!!!! I want to add that they were super easy to work with over the phone. I was a bit stressed over the machine not being full ready to tackle the first storm, but they rolled with it and promised me they’d do everything in their power to have the machine fixed and back in service promptly, and they delivered!!!”

“I visited earlier today and had quite a special experience with a woman I'll consider a new friend named Joanne. I have a home in Arrowsic which was my grandparents. My grandmother was a gardener extraordinaire and I'm tasked with putting in a new rose bush and new plants for the fall now that the home has been renovated after their passing. Joanne walked me through everything I needed to do to ensure my success. By golly I hit a home run and I owe it to her! I'll be sure to invite her to the house warming party! Thank you Joanne! I'm at home now.”

“Mike Walsh was super super helpful on my most recent trip to Lowe’s. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the tools I needed for a diy bathroom renovation. His suggestions drastically improved the trajectory of my project and I’m incredibly happy with my purchase. He was helpful, professional, and friendly. I would rate every single part of my most recent Lowe’s trip 5/5 stars. I tried to fill out the customer service questionnaire repeatedly but the website kept glitching. This was around 3pm on Saturday, May 30th, 2026. Please give Mike a raise. Employees like him are why Lowe’s is my go to store for projects like this.”
