VaPatentman Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 FYI: I helped a friend yesterday install a Bosch dishwasher he purchased from Home Depot on Friday. Immediately after installing we tried it and it leak profusely out of the sump. Unhooked it and tried to return to HD first thing this AM. We were informed the HD policy is that an appliance must be returned within 48 hours. After which time you must have it fixed via a service call. So we reinstalled and will have to wait 4-days for Bosch service to arrive. I haven’t been a big fan of HD since they quit honoring the 5% Lowes discount if you used your HD credit card this is another reason shop less at HD. Just wanted to let others know and not get stuck as my friend did. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55227-home-depot-48-hour-return-policy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually had it in his possession from Friday 8:30 PM until Monday 8:15 AM-- 59-hrs, 45-mins. I till think it is a crummy policy. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55227-home-depot-48-hour-return-policy/#findComment-412733 Share on other sites More sharing options...

gxbxc Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Yea it seem's like a bum deal you buy a thousand dollar washer and It doesn't work from the get go.One of the reasons Sears is disappearing is because of this kind of crap , drove all the loyal customers away . 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55227-home-depot-48-hour-return-policy/#findComment-412767 Share on other sites More sharing options...
41chevy Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 (edited) Most of the return policy has a bit to do with Sandy and later hurricanes. Saw in the Charlottesville and the Richmond Home Depots after the storm didn't hit as expected a ton of generators returned "unused" because the panicked sheep were done with them. About 60% were sold for half or more off the retail prices. Lot of monies to have to eat with their no questions asked return policy.

BillyT Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 41 that practice of "renting"a generator or other storm related stuff is common here in Florida! Then the thing is used and they can't legally sell it as new! But 48 hrs on a new appliance is ridiculous! 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55227-home-depot-48-hour-return-policy/#findComment-413002 Share on other sites More sharing options...
