I bought a humidifier from Home Depot (Store in *************, Order #*****-05855) in March ******* was sold as new on clearance for $60. I didnt use it until this winter, and when I opened it, it was clearly used and molded, not usable. The yellow tag didnt say as is or final sale.The store refused to take it back, saying it had been too long and no proof to tell who used it. Staff was firm that no matter the reason or price, its over 90 days, thats the policy. This is not a normal return its a defective, used product that should not have been sold as new. Clearly its a return from customer that store didnt check the condition and sold it as new. Id like a refund. Photos and receipt available.

Hello, I called Home Depot to inquire about my warranty for my Washing machine, because the machine doesnt wash or take water anymore but it turns on. I know ye offer me the warranty for 5 years but never provided me with any warranty information whatsoever. I provided my information and thats how they were able to find it. They send me a video on how to check if the hose filters were block with dirt but I open it no it wasnt, and then they open a claim#************* with the insurance company Square trait. First AM appointment created for the Technician to come in was 10/20/25 in the morning but no call no show. When we try to contact the number provided for the technician, no one answer but they reply that the technician should have went but didnt. The Technician call me around 10pm, sounded drunk that he doesnt see any appointment for me, I was admitted in the hospital and told him he needed to contact. Now they made a new appointment for 10/24/2025 and he came the last minute, open the machine, took pictures and said that the warranty is cancel due to insect infestation. We try to ask him what he meant and where was this infestation, he was very rude and said it doesnt matter where and took hes boxes and left. He was very rude. My mom started crying as she is a cancer patient and felt soo hopeless and disrespected. He didnt even try to check the machine and when we complaint to Home Depot, they didnt help us. We never knew about this warranty details because it was never given to us, it was not and infestation as they said, there was no insect on site and we dont have roaches in the house, perhaps it came with the machine from the wharehouse. I feel that as a consumer we werent treated right. I worked very hard to be able to provide for my sick mother and my daughter, I dont have money to keep wasting washing outside and no elevator. I would like Home Depot to take the machine back and refund my purchased entirely, including the warranty.Please help

On 10/2/25, I reserved a truck for 8:30am on 10/5 at the ** in ********, **. I had a full day of multiple stops for drop-offs and pick *** and had hired, for $30 an hour each, 2 men to help from 9-5. One stop in particular was set for 12:30 pm with no flexibility and all else hinged around that stop. At 8:20am, I opened my email to get my order number before going in. To my absolute incredulity, I found an email from barely an hour before 7:03 am on a Sunday morning cancelling my reservation due to unavailability of the item and apologizing for any inconvenience. INCONVENIENCE?? Who on earth reserves a 12 box truck on a Sunday and does not have a SERIOUS PLAN FOR IT? I will spare you the long story of the logistics, but the hour and 40 minute delay that ensued meant that at 1:36 pm instead of 5:30pm we were dropping an empty truck back off, not having moved 80% of what we intended, at a cost of $134.12 for a giant truck and FOUR HUNDRED AND EIGHTY DOLLARS to two men who we had promised to pay $240 each to be available for the day. I sent a complaint to Home Depot via email, which may or may not have gotten there, and then I sent a hard copy of a letter to the store manager on 10/14. I have not heard back. I requested that the minimum mitigation to the damage they caused me financially by not letting me know the truck was not available (there was NO doubt talking to 2 people at the store that this was not an emergency, it was an error. No truck was even scheduled at the store until 9am. I detailed how not informing me of my options (go to another store) ahead of time caused me a 1.5 hr delay that wiped out my tight schedule and caused me to not be able to do 80% of the work while still obligated to pay for the truck and the help. So returning the cost of the truck seems a no brainer. And then to apologize for the great cost to me financially of their failure of customer **********************, I would appreciate additional compensation. No response is insulting.

WH12581789. Ordered a Oklahoma *** Bronco smoker grill on 10/23/25 for $399 for store pick up, it got lost in transit. Homedepot sent a replacement on 11/3/2025, the replacement got lost in transit as well. I called customer support to send a replacement item again but this time have it ship to my home address, but I was told when I originally purchased the item it was on sale, the price is now $499 and I have to pay the shipping cost to have it delivered to my house. On top of that, I was also told that I can only pay using credit card and not ****** like I originally used. I explained that I need the grill ASAP for an upcoming party, but I just can't afford to pay more than what I originally paid for and have to be ******.

RE: ****** ***** / BBB Case #********
Dear Ms.****** *****
We acknowledge the receipt of the BBB Case #********
On behalf of The Home Depot, I apologize for any inconvenience our valued customer may have experienced regarding their interaction with our company.
Home Depot has thoroughly reviewed and investigated the customers concerns. We have communicated with the customer numerous times via email and phone regarding the order cancellation. The order was canceled due to multiple unsuccessful attempts over the course of six months to schedule an installation with the customer.
We retain a portion of the funds for work already completed. When a job goes into production, we typically retain between 25% and 35%. After the Right of Rescission (ROR) period, and once measurements have been completed, we typically retain 10% to cover order entry and labor costs related to the PII/final measure. Per Home Depot installation policy.
*******, the Sales Manager, communicated this information to the customer. In this case, we retained 10% and refunded the remaining balance.
Home Depot considers this matter resolved and the case closed, having exercised due diligence in addressing the customers concerns.
Please know that it is The Home Depots goal to satisfy all of our customers with the products and ******************** that we provide. The Home Depot values its customerspatronage and looks forward to servicing their future home improvement needs.

I am writing to formally express my deep concern and disappointment regarding the recent deletion of my Home Depot Pro Xtra account and the complete loss of my purchase history, which occurred on or around October 30, 2025. I rely on this account for my rental property business, and the purchase records are essential for accurate year-end tax reporting and financial documentation.After discovering the issue, I contacted Home Depot customer ********************** and spoke with four different representatives. Unfortunately, none were able to provide a clear explanation for the account deletion. When I requested to escalate the matter to a supervisor or member of upper management, I was informed that no such escalation was possible. This lack of accountability and transparency is deeply troubling.The deletion of my account and records has caused significant disruption to my business operations. As a long-standing customer who has relied on Home ********************** for materials and supplies, I find this experience unacceptable. The absence of a clear resolution process and the apparent disregard for customer concerns raise serious questions about Home Depots data management and customer ********************** practices. I respectfully request a thorough investigation into this matter and a prompt response regarding the following:1. A detailed explanation for the deletion of my Pro Xtra account and purchase history.2. Immediate restoration of my purchase records, if possible.3. A clear escalation path for unresolved customer ********************** issues.I hope Home Depot will take this matter seriously and demonstrate a commitment to supporting its professional customers.

The product I looked at was a ****** mouse for $199. This product was in the store over a month ago for $199, now the Black Friday sale flyer comes out and all items in that flyer are listed as black Friday sales yet this ****** mouse is still listed as $199. I feel thats false advertising and Home Depot is trying draw people in and yet not give them a discounted price like their pamphlet suggest.
