    WTF, Lowe's?

    So, I went to pick up my daughter from preschool at noon, and I find this sitting in my carport.



    On Black Friday we bought one of these, new, online, for almost 60% off. The following Monday, I got a call saying that they were out of stock, asking if I wanted a floor model or a different one. I said I'd wait, that there was no rush. No one has called since. I got in the shower at 11:30AM, and apparently they called and left a voicemail on my phone saying that they had left it there for me.

    But, I've got a dusty, tape stained, fingerprints all-over, floor model sitting on dead leaves on bare metal in my carport with no installation kit, no manual, no friggin' box. I called their customer service line, and they've assured me that they'll fix this, but I'm still left asking the question: WTF, Lowe's?

              Trade in the stainless steel for a white model.

                I'd be pissed too, waup. That is seriously a crummy way to treat a customer. I hope it gets resolved for you.

                  Some coarse sandpaper and a bit of elbow grease.

                      Then we're back at square one - how do you install a white model?

                        You just can't trust companies hq'd in the south with their lazy ways and lackadaisical approach to work.

                            Definitely not a car.
