We are friendly to the female shopper, while Home Depot is contractor friendly. Women like the look of Lowe's, the ease of finding what they want, the cleanliness. And women are the ones making the decisions about what carpet to buy and what color to paint the rooms, so why not make it pleasant for them?

We love being in Epping. I'm glad to be in New Hampshire, and we're helping the area economy by being here. Everyone seems to be happy.
