I went into the Santa Anna Big R (near Bernallio) to buy a special dog food. The Wholesome foods sensitive stomach is the best food for my Great Dane & German Shepard. Only one the Shepard can keep down. I was truly excited to see Big R carries it & it was on sale, at a great price. I went into store as they opened hopefully to buy the dog food only to find they didn't have it. Here is where the Santa Fe BIG R stepped up to make our day. I spoke with manager "Nathan" who told me he had 5 bags & would transfer them to the store near me in Bernallio. He could have them there this afternoon for me to pickup tomorrow morning. Saving me a trip to Santa Fe, stocking me up for weeks to come, & allowing me to get the bags at the sale price. Nathan's customer service is the reason I will continue to shop Big R.

Update: BIG R DIDN'T EVEN FIX IT. THE SAW STILL WONT IDLE. ALL THE MESS BELOW AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN…read moreDO THEIR JOBS. I had never even heard of Big R before this mess. And my experience with them explains why. So I bought a brand new Husqvarna chainsaw (I received awful service from Husqvarna too and would not recommend their products. If something goes wrong they'll leave you high and dry and stuck dealing with a place like Big R) from Lowe's and it did not run correctly. Lowe's wouldn't take it back because it had been more than 48 hours so I was stuck. So I reached out to Husqvarna and their "customer service" sent me to the local service center, which is big R. So I took the chainsaw to Big R and explained to the cashier what the issue was. Things seem to be going fine, but then he said there would be a service fee. Obviously, I did not feel that was right as this was a brand new chainsaw and if anybody should be paying anything to fix it, it should be Husqvarna. So he called this manager over. This is basically where the whole problem started. From the get-go this manager, Michelle made it very clear she had zero interest in helping or moving the problem forward. All she offered was to make sure I was aware I was gonna be responsible for paying this. She never said anything like "this is what you need to do". It was just "you didn't buy this here so it's not our problem" . So I left thinking I'd take it somewhere else. I reached back out to Husqvarna and they said just take it back and Big R will submit it as a warranty repair. Wondering why Michelle had said NOTHING about this I brought the chainsaw back that same afternoon. I dealt with the exact same cashier who knew exactly what was going on. And I left the chainsaw to be repaired. Fast-forward like six weeks later. (Because they don't even do the repairs in Santa Fe. They had to send my chainsaw to Colorado.) I get a call that it's ready and I immediately ask is there a $ balance. sure enough they're trying to charge me about $60. So I told him no I'm not paying that and I hung up the phone. I continued receiving calls from various people and I ended up hanging up on all of them. I'll give them credit for continuing to escalate up the chain but I never asked for that. They could have thrown the saw in the trash for all I cared. But every person i spoke with wanted me to jump through hoops instead of just reaching out to Husqvarna to get paid. Pretty sad these people are so stupid or lazy they can't make this simple connection. Finally I get a voicemail from some regional manager and he waived the fee but also made it a point to tell me my business was no longer welcome. Gee! Ya think?! This is such petty Gen Z "you were mean to us" behavior. Yeah don't look at your manager Michelle's massive failure here. Blame the customer. Trust me Big R, you didn't get any money from me and you never will.

Our refrigerator was delivered damaged more than a month ago. The following week, it took over two hours just to reach someone and arrange a replacement. We selected a different, less-expensive model, but the associate never confirmed the correct product and apparently never completed the replacement order or delivery request. My wife and I then spent another two hours trying to reach someone. We finally connected with a call-center representative who was extremely helpful, but all he could do was leave notes asking the local store to correct the problem. The correct refrigerator was eventually ordered and scheduled for delivery--but nobody informed me. I received no phone call, text, or email, despite being a Lowe's Plus member. I learned about the Tuesday delivery only after calling during my lunch break and driving to the store. I normally schedule deliveries on weekends because of work, but I was told I would have to take time off because Lowe's scheduled it for a weekday without consulting me. I spoke with manager Lester Close, explained everything Lowe's had put us through, and asked him to call after the refrigerator was delivered so we could discuss an appropriate resolution. He assured me he would call the following day. The refrigerator was delivered last Tuesday, and that call never came. I have now spent another week trying to reach him, including more than two additional hours on the phone. I have been hung up on multiple times and have received no meaningful assistance from the local store. To make matters worse, I purchased an extended warranty for the original refrigerator. I was still charged for that warranty even though I did not receive one for the replacement refrigerator. This has involved a damaged appliance, multiple ordering failures, an unannounced weekday delivery, hours upon hours on hold, repeated disconnections, an unfulfilled promise from management, and an unresolved warranty charge. The call-center representative was the only person who made a genuine effort to help. Lowe's needs to contact me, correct the warranty issue, and provide appropriate compensation for the extensive time, inconvenience, and missed work its failures have caused. Being a Lowe's Plus member clearly did not result in better communication or service. I would strongly caution others against purchasing a major appliance from this location.

Some time ago I bought a $200+ Gallagher rodent trap that did not work and reported this to a store clerk. He replied that I was the only one who had made such a claim. I later learned that an Eldorado friend had complained about her non-functioning trap to the same clerk and he told her the same thing. Sometime later, I returned to the store to complain about the trap not working. The clerk admitted that a number of these traps were indeed malfunctioning and was told that they were waiting for parts. I regularly checked in over the weeks and was told each time that they were still waiting for parts. Some time later, I returned to the store, and the clerk took a look to see if he could fix it. After checking in with him over the next few weeks, he finally called to say he had repaired it. However, I soon discovered that the canister part was still leaking. Some time later, I returned to the store and spoke with Steve. who gave me the number to the manufacturer to call and arrange a shipment and exchange. At that time, Steve stated that he takes care of his customers. When I called, the manufacturer rep asked why the store wasn't handling this. I realized that I, a regular customer, was caught in a shipment war between Steve and the manufacturer. Not cool. Some time later, I returned to the store and spoke with the clerk, who took my faulty trap and added it to a box containing other parts and traps behind the counter. He said that they were going to ship it to the manufacturer for exchanges. Finally, the issue with my expensive purchase would be resolved. Not so. Some time later, I returned to the store and noticed that the box was still behind the counter, weeks later. I asked the clerk about it, and he said they were still arguing over who would pay for the shipment. I wrote to Steve last week that it is well past time for him to either replace my purchase with a working trap, reimburse my purchase, or credit me the $200+. I've not heard back.
