Lowe’s Home Improvement Warehouse of Salem

It’s a nice big store. Bigger than the one near my house so it carries some stuff that the Keizer one doesn’t. Never had an issue when we have come here looking for things.

You guys suck, still. I tried it out again here, waited 30 minutes for a manager to appear after an employee calling him, the register girl calling him, until an employee pointed him out to me standing around doing nothing. You always fail Lowe’s

This is the place to go for cheap light fixtures with good quality. As you know living in Oregon during the winter months can get … wet. So I take my daughter to Lowe’s and walk the aisles to see what I could use for my new house and teach my little one store etiquette. During this little exercise routine I found that corporate likes to do one day liquidation sales that an every day shopper can really capitalize on.
I have replaced five light fixtures in my house (two are fans with lights) and saved $ 540! I got a $ 260 chandelier over my dinning room table for $ 60 and it is a show stopper that I know will help sell my house.
You can also save a bundle with special order light fixtures that people returned. I got a pair of sconces that ordered online were $ 240 each and I got the pair for $ 50.
It pays to be in the right place at the right time. End of the year clear out helps too since they have to make room for the new products.

Bought a washer and dryer, had it delivered and now I have to spend more money to fix my walls in two spots. The delivery team scrapped the paint in one spot to bare drywall and in another spot put a dent in the wall. They were curse words while in my house with my three girls under 11 present.
I would not recommend using the delivery service.

How weird is this? Now that I’m a home owner and have gotten to know Lowe’s better than I know my husband, I can’t stand them!
The employees are the biggest bunch of untrained goobers I’ve ever had to deal with. Not one employee within the last four months has been any help at all – and that’s if you can even find them.
Case in point: two days ago I was searching for untreated cedar. I happened upon two young guys in the lumber section and the one that actually spoke had no idea if the lumber was treated. He ended up just walking off after saying, «I don’t know.»
Before that it was a doe eyed teenage girl who had no idea shelving I was talking about.
And before that it was a woman working the tool section who wasn’t able to direct me to a carpenters square.
Lowe’s might be cheaper and bigger than Home Depot but you can’t put a price on service. Home Depot wins in that department, hands down.

Trying to finds someone about our project seemed to almost impossible, But when we did the guy know nothing about the department he worked in. Sigh… after waiting another 10 mins they found a guy that knew an answer. He made the almost 30 min wait very knowledgeable, sad thing is they didnt have the parts I needed.

When choosing between going to Lowe’s and Home Depot my hand is always raised for Lowes. There is just something I find annoying with the inside of Home Depot, but I can’t put my finger on it.
This Lowes is no different than any other one. Same items, service, etc. I am finding it a little bothersome that you cannot find a person to assist you as much as you used to. I figured out why… they are all hanging out at the customer service desk gossiping with each other.

A completely perky girl pointed me the wrong way but quickly corrected and led me to what I needed.
I was able to find things I can’t seem to find elsewhere and the prices for what I buy are reasonable.
Quick checkout, easy returns.
No issues, they deliver as promise.

my favorite Salem home improvement store. easy to navigate (unlike the maze which is Home Depot), clean, and bright. easy to locate just off Mission… next to Walmart on Turner Rd. (airport). very helpful staff, that’s always around when you need help.

Very helpful workers, though not all the help is accurate. Staff sold me a screw that I was told would work, but it did not fit when I got home. I hate that set screws and other small hardware fasteners are sold in bags so that one cannot try them for size and fit, first.
And when the heat wave hit, they had no fans. They could have made a killing when the temps hit 100+!
They are also located next to a very big discount store, making shopping at Lowe’s more convenient.

Only had one tall guy guy wearing a vest forget that I needed help. Michael, on the other hand, was so incredibly helpful and earnest in helping me that it made the shopping go by quicker and easier (he wasn’t in a vest but was scanning).

Its a lows. The staff is always franticly staying busy and moving around. I was able to find people when I needed.

You can always seem to find what you’re looking for here. Nicely organized and comfortably open. The employees are great as well.
Easy shopping.
