Pretty much agree. Lowe's is the Wal-Mart of big box home improvement stores.
Back UpNort there were three players in the game, in order of quality (in my opinion) Home Depot, Menard's, and Lowe's. Home Depot carried the best quality stuff but pricier than the other two. I did a lot of woodworking back in the day and Menard's had the best lumber, though a lot of their power tools were brands I'd never heard of and among the woodworkers of the area didn't have that great a reputation. Lowe's was a last-resort stop: their lumber was terrible in most respects; huge voids in the Chi-ply they carried even on their best-grade stuff. Their dimension lumber resembled skis. I'd stop there for small hand tools or sanding pads but that's about all.
