  My husband and I are here frequently, but I thought I would share something that I saw today: We were paying for our items in the garden center and ahead of us in line was an elderly lady. She paid for her purchase and Stan ( who was the cashier) told her that he knew it was heavy for her, so just pull up in her car and he would bring it to her. He also was doing everything he could to help another customer get some mulch which had not been unloaded from the delivery truck yet. He then cheerfully rang up our stuff. The lady pulled up in her car and he brought her item out to her and put it on her front seat of her car. It was just one of the MANY times that I have noticed employees doing that little extra thing that means so much! Home Depot might be a big box store, but they sure know how to make you feel welcome and appreciated. Way to go Stan!!!

  So many great things to love about Home Depot. My favorite may be the workshop for kids. We've been bringing our oldest since they began in 1997 and we are still coming 20 years later with our 6-year-old son. All 3 of our kids have loved and benefited from these workshops. (Lapeer's Kids W.S. is found in the lumbar dept.) We've built many projects over the years, courtesy of the Home Depot, and done many home improvement projects. Their prices are usually quite reasonable and last I knew they price matched, which any company willing to match a competitor's price, is worth my time and money. My biggest, and really only, complaint about the Home Depot (but often a big deal breaker), is that when you NEED help, it is often SO difficult to find an employee. I swear it is like they know you need help and they run and hide. I have literally called and asked for help from inside the store before. More than once!! Once, I did this, and I still waited so long that I finally left. It's absolutely ridiculous. And the bad part about Lapeer is that they know they have you because there is nowhere else in town for you to go. With this thought in mind, I do sometimes choose other places over them (usually Self-Serve) because customer service can and does make or break the deal. The Home Depot Lapeer does have a nice garden center. The whole store is well kept and clean. (And smells good.) The bathrooms are also well-kept and clean. Not uni-sex.The staff you do encounter is very friendly and helpful and if they cannot help you, they will find some who can. Like most Home Depots, the set up seems familiar so you are not wandering aimlessly like you can do at Walmart. Also like most, the store has a hot dog seller at the exit, and the other reason my children like to go.

  Awesome store. Love the garden section and paint department. I always get the help I need. Thanks for the free water too. It's great!
