On two occasions I ordered home deliver from Lowes.
Once for a Stove and once for a clothes drier.
I never had to leave my house and they were here within the window of
time they gave me.
Very happy.
BTW: I always buy the cheap stuff without the expensive electronic controls.
All that stuff is BS
Glad you had good results. In the last 5 or so years I bought a range,
dryer and washing machine all at different times.
The range delivery was confirmed on a telephone call two times a week
apart and they failed. Finally got it on the third time.
Dryer was about 2 hours late.
Washing machine was delayed 3 times and I finally went to a store in the
next town and picked it up myslef.
I had some carpet and wood flooring installed on two differnet times and
that went very well.
Guess that if you buy any appliance , you better be able to take it with
you from the stores around the middle of North Carolina.
I bought appliances from a real appliance dealer and got equal or better
price and much better service.
About a year ago bought a patio table and six chairs. Nothing but
aggravation with delivery. It was on a truck and could not find the
street even though they had directions. Ended up after many calls five
days late.
I buy appliances from appliance dealers and lumber from lumber-yards,
and hardware from hardware stores. I also buy groceries from grocery
stores.
Sadly the lumber yards and hardware stores are getting scarce
I am so lucky that I live very close to a lumber yard.
For years I'd go there and pick up large loads.
One day I got sick of it and said...OK, how much for delivery?
My orders were about double the size to qualify for free delivery!
