Lowe's certainly does not have the best POS nor inventory system. Yet, they have fairly decent prices for what they sell, we use them for all our rentals. Yes, they use third party delivery people, but so does Amazon. We have received merchandise and have had to send it back for scratches, not working, sent the wrong item, and a host of other problems. Yet, we still use them. Please don't expect to get it and everything be ready great when you get it. It could be even longer once you get it, and there is a problem.
