I knew what I wanted when I went in so I wasn't asking for a lot of help - just reassurance that the brand I chose was reliable. She did her sales job v effectively, but when I said I wasn't interested, she didn't push. She saved me a little $ and offered good advice. I would go back to Home Depot to buy appliances based on my experience with Cheryl. (Sad to say that my experience over the years with many of the HD emplyees was not good. Lots of people who can't be bothered or don't know more than I do. This time I dealt with 2 sales women. - both were great. Perhaps HD needs to hire more women?) Two final points: why are the ratings on Yelp so low while Google reviews are glowing. For the same store?? Finally I had a hard time reaching Reading, so after 6 hours of trying I googled Home Depot Customer Service. I called an 800 number and was told my account had a red flag. I said I just got the card 6 hours ago. Person on the other end was nasty and insisted that my info was compromised. She spoke with a very thick Indian accent and was so rude I hung up. Called right back - guy with a veyr thick Indian accent ansered the call and when I told him I suspected they were a scam and not HD he said "then why don't you hang up." I did. Buyer beware.

On a day filled with terribly upsetting news, her bright smile and boundless spirit truly made me feel a little normal again.

Got an email confirmation at 3:46pm on May 29 saying "Your delivery is on track!" and "Your delivery scheduled!" for that same day. No one ever showed up or contacted me. Didn't have time to call on Thursday so I called on Friday morning at 9:38am. The person I spoke to said deliveries are only made on Wednesdays and Saturdays and that someone would call me Saturday May 31 to let me know when the delivery would be ready. It's now 7pm and Ace closes at 5pm. No one has called, no delivery has been brought to the house. I REALLY wanted to give my business to someplace local, but this is ridiculous. I have cancelled my order and unfortunately won't be using this Ace Hardware in Woburn ever again. If an order is placed with a delivery day that you don't deliver on, you should contact the person placing the order and inform them of such. Extremely disappointing.

7 Months. 2 Measurements. 2 Failed Installations. Still Not Done…read more If you are considering using Lowe's in Woburn for installation services, don't. My wife and I started a storm door project in August during their "free installation" promotion. We needed Larson storm doors and I clearly stated from Day 1 that the frames required a build-out. I was told this was routine and handled "all the time." That statement turned out to be fiction. Measurement #1: They missed the first appointment. Rescheduled for 10am the next day. Arrived at 1pm. I again explained the build-out requirement. It was not documented. Installation Attempt #1: Installer shows up and informs me: Two doors are bent and unusable. They were never told about the build-out. The porch rails might prevent installation. They drill holes into my front door frame and then leave. Zero completed work. We start over. Measurement #2: Different person comes out after I request someone with more experience. Photos taken. Build-out discussed again. Then comes the quote confusion. I'm told I owe roughly $500 more because the build-out wasn't properly carried over in the new quote. When I ask for documentation comparing the original and revised totals, I'm told the associate "doesn't want to do the math." I had to fight through their automated phone system for nearly an hour just to get basic pricing documentation. Seven months later, end of February, installers return. Installation Attempt #2: They immediately inform me the measurements AGAIN failed to account for build-out width and rail placement. Their proposed solution? Cut my porch rails and improvise framing. They also suggest relocating my house numbers "off to the side." At that point, I stopped the work. Seven months. Two measurement appointments. Two failed installations. Damage to my door frame. Incomplete project. This wasn't a complicated custom job. It was storm doors with a clearly disclosed build-out requirement from the beginning. The pattern here isn't a mistake, it's systemic incompetence between sales, measurement, and installation. I will be hiring an actual professional to finish the job. If you value your time, your home, and basic project management competence, do not use Lowe's installation services.
