I like Lowes almost as much as Home depot but I find Lowes doesn’t have as big of a selection of hardware and plumping as Home depot. The staff are just as knowledgeable as they are at home depot. I do find that there are Lowes that the staff seem to not want to help you or are just lying about what you need to do. The paint prices I find at Lowes are usually lower than they are at somewhere else, plus the one near me does price match to an advertised price.
