I've had luck with Home Depot and just helped a neighbor complete a purchase of a low-end Whirlpool Stove at Lowes. There is no comparison in my opinion. Home Depot screwed up big time on their order for me but made it right quickly and owned their mistake. I value that. They also made a financial gesture that was more than I ever expected to make up for their fault.

On the other hand, the purchase of a simple stove from the Lowes on 441 reminded me of a Three Stooges skit Combined with a little bit of I Love Lucy. It was run lie and deny for all involved in their screw up. I must say the store manager did pull all the worlds together and came thru and made a stressful situation better.

I bought an inexpensive Sharp 55 inch TV from Best Buy and wouldn't give them one penny of my money. It pooped out during the 14 day Love it or Return it period. I don't like the way they do business. I was uncomfortable during the return process. My goal was to give a local business my money instead of Amazon. The item I want is cheaper at Best Buy but I'm going to go with Home Depot after I give Appliance Direct a chance tomorrow. We'll see.

A TOTV'S poster New Englander may have saved me by reminding me about that store. Thank's! I really get a kick outta the commercial that guy makes. Let's see if he can back up his words with a great deal. I hope he can get out of the washing machine.
