      I purchased a Legend Force Garden Tiller online from Home Depot in July 27, 2023 with a delivery date of August 9, 2023. This is September 13, 2023 and I still have not received it. I have called numerous times concerning the delivery date and have been told it will be delivered in a week. Yesterday I was told I was told September 18, 2023 to October 12, 2023. Today I called Home Depot and they have no idea where the Tiller I purchased is. They can't even locate it to track it. I was told that I will just have to wait until it finally is delivered. This is a completely inappropriate way to treat a customer.

      We ordered a brand new quartz countertop from Home Depot and paid $1,426.95 for it The countertop was delivered with manufacturing defects and two unsuccessful attempts to rectify the defects were made prior to it being installed. The defects were clearly due to poor workmanship and lack of care and attention to detail. An attempt was made to pass off a defective product when a new one should have been prepared in the first instance Home Depots countertop installer, after communication with his home office, advised that he would not install the damaged countertop, as leaving it uninstalled would allow for its easy removal should a new countertop be installed The above was a lie: the countertop has been glued and installed to our new vanity, which has precluded its removal without causing damage to the a new custom made vanity (and walls), which could potentially need to be fully replaced Our bathroom renovation is on hold, more than a month behind schedule with no completion date in sight. We have been without water in the vanity since August 3. Today is September 13.At no time, has Home Depot offered any kind of apology or empathy for our position All we have been offered is a third attempt to fix a defective product. Not acceptable.We have had to deal with a Home Depot Resolution Specialist, which has been a total waste of time and an affront to our intelligence We demand a full refund for a defective product, which cannot now be removed.

      Home Depot tehcinician breaks our frig trying to fix it. Purchase refrigerator (frig) from Home Depot store & 5 year frig Warranty Plan (cost $195) on 5/13/21 & delivered on 5/26/21. Total Cost with tax $1,588.24. Paid in full. I called them over 17 times calling & filed a claim with their home warranty claims personnel on 6/14/2l as frig broke within the first 30 days, they did not fix the problem with the frig freezing my produce & freezer not freezing frozen food. Spent 2 years calling on frig warranty (6/14/21 thru 8/7/23). On 8/21 they sent Mr. ******* to fix the refrigerator as the refrigerator part is freezing our produce (milk, *********). He changed the back panel & the temperature thermostat. The next day the water ************* was frozen, the ice ************* dispenser didn't work, the back panel that he replaced had a big gap & cold air is pouring in from the ************** part. Now 5 shelves in our frig is non-usable as more of the refrigerator area is freezing. Now we only have 2 shelves to put our produce & nowhere for our milk /juice/eggs. Frig still keeps running. Home Depot person Mr ******* broke more parts on the frig. I Called home depot on 8/23, they sent me to GE MFG *************** to fix the problem. On 9/11 GE MFG Technician, ********** inspects the frig & said the back panel needs to be replaced, it should be sealed not have an open gap. Since theres a gap cold air is leaking from the freezer into the frig part, Also the duck panel needs to be replaced, & the water tank needs to be replaced. Note: The back panel was replaced on 8/25 by Home Depot technician Mr ******** Now the back panel needs to be replaced again. Per ********* (from GE) said we have to pay $519.18 for GE technician to fix this problem we are out of warranty. Home Depot sent us to GE **************** knowing that our MFG warranty expired on 6/7/22. Now they again are yanking us a around, doing noting. They refuse to replace the frig.

      Purchased a tiller on HDs deal of the day on July 21, 2023. PO# WM4121-8568. NSD tracking number is ********. First scheduled delivery was Aug 8, then Aug 21, then Sept 11. No delivery made. Nonstop delivery is the assigned delivery parter with a long history of no shows, no call backs, no answers and no deliveries. Made multiple calls to *** and then multiple calls to HD customer ********************** for online purchases. Multiple HD case numbers, ********, ********, ********. Was told the problem would be investigated and I would receive an email with update. No email has been received to date. HDCustomer service did say, after contacting ***, that one tiller was lost in transit and one is lost somewhere in one of *** warehouses. After the Sept 11 no show, I got a call back the next day from someone at ***, only because she was contacted by a HD supervisor requesting a customer contact be made. Learned from *** call that they only service the area maybe, one day a week. Not enough deliveries to area, you lose. I do not want a refund, I do not want to cancel my order, I just want someone at HD to care enough that they will get my order delivered and put an end to this.

      In July of 2022 I purchased an ** washing machine. The washing machine was inoperable on day one. After continuously reaching out to the customer **********************, they sent someone to pick the item up. Once the item was received back, the refund was not issued. We had to go int the store in order to attempt to get it resolved. In 08/2022 in the ***************** Home Depot on Highway 85 a refund was issued back to the debit card. The refund was rejected due to it not being the original method of payment. The Home Depot card was used to make this purchase. I have reached out multiple times and was promised a resolution. The charge was disputed because the refund was no longer there. After three months I was advised that the dispute was denied due to missing information. It was reopened and after 60 days when I called I was advised that it was closed again and told to call customer **********************. I called on 04/12 after faxing over proof from he bank that the payment was rejected and was told that the refund was processed again to wait. Then I spoke with ****** an account supervisor on 4/21/2023 who told me that the refund would take 5 days to go back to the card. On 04/29 when no refund I called back and was told that the refund was denied because it needed to have my pin number and that they would do a direct deposit so I provided my bank account information. On 05/04 when there was still no refund I called back and was told go back to the store. The store said that it was a customer ********************** issue and to call back. This has yet to be resolved and I have been without the washing machine for a year and still making payments. I have been trying to get this resolved and it was supposed to be escalated to the corporate office and no one ever calls or follows up. Now they are saying that they can not assist when I file a complaint because they can't speak to a third party, well I give my permission, I NEED HELP!

      I purchased a dishwasher from Home Depot. I was sent a checklist of the steps that I need to take to prepare for the installation of the dishwasher. On 9/13, the day of the installation, I was informed by the installers that they could not install the appliance because we have a water filtration system. This was NEVER stated in the checklist. No one from Home Depot attempted to contact me about this ahead of time. The installers said that I have to contact a third party to install it and left my dishwasher in our garage. This is a huge inconvenience and Home Depot completely dropped the ball. I took off work to have this installed. I want a FULL refund

      Home Depot Installed 2 crawlspace windows in my house which are literally at ground level in the fall of 2022. On Tuesday, July 18, 2023 ****** <***************> wrote to the windows installer coordinator:First I want to tell you what a terrible job the installer did with the caulking of these two windows last Wednesday. The caulk is literally hanging off of the window bottoms as you should be able to see in the pictures which I have attached. He was also a real jerk when he came here. He carried on about the front of the house not being the same and that the concrete man (***** Concrete) who is extremely reputable, dug concrete away from the front of the house when he removed paving stones. He refused to listen when I told him that they were simply laid on the ground. ************** came here on Friday and and determined that no concrete was removed at all but instead puckers in the concrete were obvious as when it was parged prior to me living here. Your installer also stated that the contractor who had been here to see the mess was a liar when he said that any of it was caused by his lack of caulking. His lack of caulking was both on the inside and outside of the bottom of these windows which are not far from ground level. Inside of the crawlspace on the encapsulate at the back side window there were puddles of water and on the front did wall it was the same. Your installer said that he took pictures to send to you which I assume he did do. Although the crawlspace did certainly have a problem from the back wall I would attribute a great deal of the front wall to his lack of caulking. Common sense says that ground level windows with the extreme amount of storms which we have seen would take in water. Quite obviously the windows which I purchased from Home Depot had problems from the start and this installer certainly did not make the situation any better...

      I am rejecting this response because: The contractor who came to my house first off never said any of this to me. Instead I was told by the gentleman who came with the man whom I was told owned ****************** that that gentleman was going to recaulk both of the windows which he did do. he scraped the lousy caulk off of both windows and applied caulk as it should have been done originally. The small amount of mulch had no bearing on the water leakage into the front of the house as I have said was the opinion of the concrete man who came to my house and had done previous work including laying two sidewalks. The story changed as was originally said by the original installer who said that the concrete was scraped when paving blocks which were only laid in place were removed. As I have said to Home Depot on other occasions the customer ********************** there is not as it used to be and this is another example.

      I am rejecting this response because: the information is a **** lie. As I said in my first complaint to you both of the windows installed by your installer had not been caulked on either the inside or outside of the bottom. This had absolutely nothing to do with my small bed outside. Your story changed because the **** ignorant installer blamed the concrete contractor for digging into the house concrete which as I stated was absolutely a lie and was re-examined by the same person whose business name I had included. There was no concrete etching because the blocks which were removed were simply concrete paver blocks. The contractor who also examined the mess examined both of the windows which had not been caulked because the installer was deficient in his work. The encapsulate and the walls were wet below both of those windows. When the two men came here and the owner of the window company, so I was told, the other man also stated that the installer lacked customer ********************** and probably would be retiring soon. I am tired of your company twisting the facts when the uncaulked windows which were both near ground level were the problem in this instance as was stated by both the contractor and the owner of the concrete business... As I have said the whole **** window situation was a mistake from the very beginning and I have also discouraged others from dealing with your business for any of this type of work. But you should be at least willing to accept responsibility for terrible work or should I say a lack of work by your installer.

      Sincerely,

      On 12.22.20022 I bought 2 In-Sink-Erator garbage Disposals from Home Depot @ *********, ** for a total of ****** including tax. @ 94..19 Each.In regards to the one in my unit (237) -On 9.12.2023, I noticed that there was an abnormal accumulation of rust at the bottom of the disposals (about 1/4"). When I removed it, the oxidation returned. Also there were some performance issues with it.The disposals uses galvanized metal instead of stainless steel plates.I called their factory authorized service Sinkflow Repair LLC in **********. I had a very unsatisfactory experience in that they charged me $95.00 which I felt was a bad business experience because the serviceman did some repair work on the disposals which is covered under the factory warranty. I feel that the quality and manufacturing of the disposal itself was poor, because I rarely used the disposal. Furthermore because it is over the 90 day return policy this leaves me with a bad impression with Home Depot, since I discovered the abnormal rust issue after the 90 day return policy I would like to be refunded the service Charge from *********************** Depot since I shouldn't have been charged. to begin with.*** Very Poorly manufactured and Assembled.**The other disposal has some rust but not to the extent of mine.
